    Is it usual to get wrecked at the start of a race every time by someone behind you?

    Until you find a sweet spot with car class and nitro/tuning, it's pretty common and dumb, yes.

    I don't get why there isn't a few seconds of invincibility at the start of each MP race.

    That is something that has been passed on to them because its a bit of a problem for just about everybody (who doesn't start at the back:)).
    There is ways to counter it, such as weaving over and back but a good accelerating car is pretty important, probably the most important thing.

    Don't really know if they will or can add a couple of seconds of knockout resistance at the beginning, it'd take a bit of work with the collision model, but it has been brought up to them a good few times.

    Hi! GL_Ryan :)

    I know you're just a customer care channel.
    But... Make sure that our claims reach the developers!

    People here talk about improvements to the multiplayer mode...
    It's an obvious thing that has to be done.

    I personally like to race on new tracks!
    Let me give you my ideas to be taken to Developers team.

    I would like 2 New Tracks:

    Munich|Germany [Autobahn]
    Dubai |United Arab Emirates [City]


    Thanks! ;)

    Don't worry (or ponic:)), Ryan is excellent and passes all the info people put up on here, both good and bad, directly on to the development team responsible for the game.

    Of course, the ultimate decision lies with the team and how feasible any of it is, but it is all definitely heard by them through Ryan.

    The race ended normally, like usual with no distractions. I didn't take any pictures of other racers, I was so mad in the moment. It's not even like the car caused it, it just happened, randomly. Maybe I beat the race too fast and it was instantly considered a hack or something.

    Monaco

    That happened to me as well. I was running Monaco, won and went down 10 ranking points. It's right up there with hackers, in terms of frustration level.

    As Rip said, I do my best to provide feedback to the Devs and then it's up to them what they would like to include or change. I do appreciate the feedback though. As Community Manager this is the stuff I search for!

    Remember... crazy as it may seam you are going to spin off that barrel jump not just roll....Make sense. You can land in the dirt some and it will be fine. Done right though and you are well down the road.

    Practice the drop tunnel it is faster than all the other routes just takes a few runs to find the line and all you may need to do is an immediate drift when you land to get facing straight up the hill. But if you do, keep it very short

    Edit: Well my battery was just about dead but had enough for one run. I did use the Lykan so I don't know what cars you have to work with. But no boosters just the Lykan alone. Now you should be able to do it in several other cars since for the first run in a day or so for me I did end up wrecking once and it was everything other than clean... But still ran it in 1.36.212...So many other cars should get you through the traps in time for the third trophy. Now that I see it is just time intervals to try and reach and not top 1000 and so on. You don't really need that barrel jump at all. I think there is an easier route to run in this amount of time.... if you like I can give it to you. Wont be as fast when that matters but to reach 1.37 it will do that even though it is longer. Just has a risky oncoming car area is all but it is not hard after you see where they are once.

    I'd like to see a track with an erupting volcano as an obstacle.

    I think using nitro also offer some kind of protection from other opponents that also use it. So, using nitro starter boost is essential to protect you from early knowdown.

    @Ryan,
    can you please confirm to the dev team about the double credit problem?

    Sounds C:):)L !

    But I think those elements that hinder the race did not worked so well.
    I mean just in theory... So they will prioritize other aspects.

    ... And need to be a "famous location" in the world to be in the game, with volcanic eruptions...

    Anyway, Dubai we could have Sandstorms

    We'll have to wait the developers's choice.
    They are crazier than us...

    BELIEVE ME!

    ;)


    PS: Maybe I am more than them...

    There's a mini geiser after you exit the caves (forward track) or before you enter the caves (reverse track), which you can do a spin and reload some nitro. It's trickier in reverse track, but with practice you can use it in each lap, and you don't lose time because it's not a ramp, it's very near the floor and it compensates. I did 1:36.5 quite easily ;)

    Correct that is what I meant in my post that I called the "Snow mound" or something like that:D
    Hit it right and you can spin twice...that is were you find some of the illusive tenths that hide in this track....
