Bought Premium Pack 2 years ago, can I update?

[Snake]

I want to re-buy all the content that's been added since I bought the "all content in one" premium pack, but I don't think I can?

Do I have to buy all car packs and new tracks added one by one?

I would love to buy everything together by re-buying the Premium pack and just getting the content I'm missing, with some sort of discount.

Why not try it and see? Check what the price is for the full package, put it in your cart and see if the price is reduced to account for the content you already have. I know I've seen people say you cannot buy the premium pack twice, but maybe the storefront automatically does a 'complete the set' calculation to just charge you for the stuff you don't have yet. I have everything so cannot test it.

If I try putting the Premium pack in my cart, the web store tells me I already own that item and doesn't let me.

This happens even though I don't own a bunch of items from it now, it just doesn't let me buy it again.

OK, yeah, seems like it's one time thing then. Need another plan :)

Nah nah, I'm not spending 7 eur per circuit on a game that is still stuck in 2013

Suit yourself.

From my understanding, you buy the premium pack again, and it counts the items you already own as zero dollars. BUT, you should wait till the DTM 2024 content is released.

I'm not sure that it applies to those packs. They are one time purchases. Unlike specific packs like the DTM series and GTR and so forth. Once you buy the pack, any updates to the pack (skins mainly, but sometimes cars), can be bought at a substantial discount in order to complete your collection.

Word of caution to anyone however:
In the Sim World, (racing, trains, planes, combat, etc.,) it's not wise to invest if you are not prepared to purchase additional content. It's not for the faint of heart. (Or wallet).

the premium pack is a one time purchase period

Tough luck. Back to Assetto Corsa.

That really sucks, I would have thought you should have all new content automatically without having to pay for it if you bought premium...... won't be getting that then!

It's clearly described that you get everything available AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, but I expected to be able to expand and "complete" this pack once you bought it, instead of being nickle-and-dimed for every new item, even though you're a "super-supported" type of player / customer.

The text on the store page for the premium pack reads:
With one single purchase you will get everything the game has to offer at THIS PARTICULAR MOMENT.
Almost all games charge for extra DLC.

after buying the "everything" pro pack, buy VRP from raceroomstore when it goes on sale,
then buy the new content you want, (its also the cheapest way to get the everything pro pack) I buy a few $$ of VRP every year or two, and get all the new content as it is released

didnt like now you have to buy every single livery, car, track separately its more expensive even for class already own but they release more liveries, no cool

true, VRP are cheaper during black friday and tracks & cars are cheaper during summer sales, by combining those we can get "two times cheaper" contents..
