    I would like to complete my missing cars and livery and tracks, but If I want to complete all, I have to buy for 102€.
    (Funny I only miss Watkins glen, and 6 cars.....I guess the liveries are expensive)
    So is it possible to delete my game with steam and rebuy a new premium pack ?
    Or Do i have to rebuy all with a new steam account (I have multiples so it's not a problem, as I bought online games separately with different account to sold them later easily)

    Of course I will wait for the new WTCR 2020 DLC before rebuy my premium pack :)

    You can erase games from steam account via steam support- im not sure tho how it works with f2p games or stuff like raceroom, which used to be separate account etc. In your case, how about other packs? What wuld be the price of gt4 and gt3 packs? Unless you bought them already aswell :confused:

    Some system overhaul sure would be nice, your example is best for it

    If you delete the game from your account, I think you will lose all the content you bought from the shop so that would not be a good idea.
    With the current system your best option is to wait for the next sale and buy the GT4 pack, WTCR20 pack, the missing track and any other car with just one livery, that way you´ll pay about 20 euros max.
    Otherwise you could buy the premium pack for another steam account in the next sale but then you´ll have to make another driver profile, build up reputation and rating and of course lose any cars dropped from the game since you bought the first premium pack.

    You all realise this is sector 3s forum the guys who develop test and release the game ?

    The money side , and what happens what things cost etc is Racerooms decisions ,
    maybe get a lot of ppl together and start sending them emails ?

    My guess would be the opposite. When you ask Steam to remove a game, they revoke your licence to use this game. But the content you own in R3E is managed fully by Raceroom and stored on your Raceroom account.

    Do we still have discreet Raceroom accounts? I thought they went away. When I go to game.raceroom.com/users, I have to sign in with Steam.

    Signing in with Steam/Facebook/Google/etc. doesn't necessarily mean your account is managed by and stored on that service. Most of the time it's only the log-in step.

    Well I´ll leave it to you to test the theory but I remember a fellow on the forum last year who claimed to have lost all content when they deleted their raceroom account.
    In any case, the current solution is to buy the GT4s as a pack and not individually and wait for the next sale including packs - maybe Easter?

    The Premium pack should definitely have a time out on it - say 24 months to allow people to get new content. Since we are not dealing with a company on the scale of Microsoft, perhaps this is something s3s could suggest to the owners. Same with a Pro pack refresh to coincide with WTCR20 and steam DLC update.

    Raceroom account and licence to use R3E in Steam are not the same, are they?

    No they aren´t, so then we know that deleting the RRE account will lose everything but not what happens when you remove a free game from Steam with DLC bought outside of steam. I guess the DLC will still be tied to your RRE account so it won´t change anything but I am not going to test that out!

    oh, I will buy a new premium with a new steam account :), cause it will change nothing for the forum, and for AI race it will change nothing, it will just change for me about the price :)

    I have deleted my account in the RACEROOM STORE, as I have no record, only stats that i don't care, and I have rebought a premium pack for 64.99€ !
    All the missing content was at 250€, so now I have everything for 64.99€!
    This game is awesome !
    The FFB is far better than AMS2, it just lackss bumps from laserscan, but the suspension feeling is the best.

    Thousands hours of gameplay incoming !

    No way 250 Euro. I am playing this game since 2014, I have everything and I did not spend 250 in all those years. Maybe 200 Euro.
    I usually buy only 1 livery which I like and want to use. Also I buy several thing at once. How can you have the premium and 250 Euro missing? I cannot imagine that.

    I realise this is completely unrelated, but I recently bought Red Dead Redemption 2 in the Steam sale, only to discover that my R* account is linked to an old, deleted email account. They wanted me to send them an email receipt - among other things - as proof of purchase.
    As I pointed out to them, that email would have been sent to the defunct email address. Which I can't access. Which is why I contacted them in the first place. Classic Catch 22.
    Result: I can no longer buy any R* games on Steam or play any of the old games I've purchased...

    Can you ask them to link your Steam account to a new Rockstar account? I mean, you own your Steam account and can prove that, so regardless of who "owns" your old Rockstar account, it shouldn't matter.

    That was the first thing I tried, and it can't be done. Your R* account is forever linked to the original email address you used. Also, I tried to contact Steam to see if they could unlink the account, but that's a no as well.

    No, I mean if there's a way to scrap/forget your old Rockstar account, "unlink" your Steam account from it and create a new Rockstar account that would then be linked to your Steam account.
