    All I'm saying is, when there is a tournament where the very top realistic time is about 1:04 and hundreds of people manage to get 52 seconds, why not immediately ban all of those players? Seems easy enough to me.

    I share you frustration, but at the end of the day they will be there. It has got to be hard to stay literally on top of that. It would be a full time job for several people I think man. Oh...and thanks for the props ;)

    So calm in the face of a pissed off friend....You have the touch man :)

    I quoted the wrong post but I think this will work....I would go Merc for now... it will be of more use during the career and multi player I think. That cady is fun though...Accel is really just about the most important upgrade for the record in my book.

    Edit: On an other note RIP we finally get to see eachothers cards hu :) I see you in game now...cool

    I do agree so you know... But I dont know for one... if they have anyone that is as good as some of us to set that mark? They should have friends that are but....

    Then it might just come down to time in the day and they may not get how we see the standings or how important that is. But I bet they get banned more than we know and or at least dont get rewards... I would like to think that any how.

    I would like to see them fix the glitchy ness of the Lykan so we can use it in multi reliably... that would make me happier. I wont run now only because of that. Clean up that car and I think I can run with all those folks....or lead them :)

    I saw Themarecookin in the standings.... below us FYI...He is not even in the top 100 anymore...even though he should have been banned a while back:)

    Ah, crap.
    Now I'm really going to have to bring my A game.

    ......:)

    Seriously though, that shall be interesting.
    Here's hoping I have the time and the skill to be competitive.


    Edit: And me? Calm? I'm pretty sure that's one of the first times that's been applied to me. :)
    I'm gonna have to put that in my sig.

    I apology for sounding like a jerk earlierl just mounting frustration. And I vent because I love the game. I think it's amazing. I just thought it would be a good start on some of those tourneys we had the past few weeks. The hundreds of people who beat all of the top legit racers like us by 10-15 seconds should've been banned right then. Would have saved a lot of time. I don't mind losing when it's fair. But if suddenly 200 people beat Dark, Turbo and myself by 10 seconds, I think we all know how it happened.

    That's the one thing that puzzles me about the whole hacker issue: Marketing speak aside, there will never be a way to exclude them reliably, so the focus should be on detecting them after the fact. And nobody at Gameloft seems to play this game frequently enough to be able to judge the times.

    Asphalt is a huge franchise, so I do think that hiring a part-time tester for that would be reasonable.

    Hear, hear! One of the things I don't like about the current cup is that I have to try so often, because half of the time, the Lykan decides to abrubtly turn to the right and into the void on that gravel curve near the end. That's especially frustrating because it means that as soon as I crash, I lose the opportunity to see the effect of any route changes I might have tried before. Those are the times when I wish for a split time feature.

    And yes, you guessed it: Seeing how you guys kept talking about the cup, I couldn't stay away. On the plus side, I'm #1 in Germany now, and I beat Master Driver. So those sour grapes have turned sweet, and my current best time is 00:59:164.

    Now if I can overcome my aversity to triple boosts, I can probably break into the 00:58s. Tempting.

    Exactly running bird, why is why I think they can look at some of the real players here to set the times if necessary. There are some of the best racers on this forum. A few tourneys ago, our top times were all around 1:02-1:04 I think. Then suddenly, the hackers manage to beat all of the best legit players by 10-12 seconds. That's an eternity in a one lap Nevada race and it's not possible without cheating. I'm suggesting taking the people who beat the top legit players by an unnatural number like 10-15 seconds, give them all the boot!

    Maybe a bit more subtle in the name but... Really, get them to compete for a set goal that is otherwise unreachable by legit racing. A cup just for cheaters. What they won't expect would be kaboom when they hit first prize. :D

    Where is the credits doubler anyway? News on that front?

    You're right!
    Just like...

    EXTREME CUP TOURNAMENT

    And give them 4 Nitros (Blue, Yellow, Purple, and Red).

    What car should I buy: Lykan or Agera? My objective is to max one of the two cars out and try to beat you guys when an S class tournament arises (I can't compete with my FXX against you Lykans... :D)

    Honestly? You mean that with a maxed out Pagani Hyuaira I can reach top 1 in front of the Lykans?

    I can say the official price of the Mclaren P1 is 375,000 credits and Ferrari Testarossa is 300,000. I know some of you won't believe me

    Choose Lykan, it's the current best car
    Agera is to slow in accel and used up nitro to quickly
    Beside, the tournament leaderboard top 100 mostly use Lykan (except the cheater of course)
    I don't know about Pagani

    The Pagani has a very fast start cause of its nitro

    So, popped a double credit booster I had lying about and... I've maxed out the 8C and GT500 save for their nitrous upgrades. Which should I focus upgrades on first, the Agera R or Sesto Elemento?

    Oh, and for more Chinese ramp weirdness, how do you get the 4 flat spins in one jump star done? I nearly got it, and then my FXX exploded for no reason whatsoever.

    And, um, what level of upgrades and which ramp do you use for the 4 flat spins in one jump star in the Countach 25th Anniversary exclusive event?

    For the Chinese one it's easy: spin on the ramp where the flying dragons are and take the right course. I made up to 6 spins there.

    For the Countach it is more difficult: if I don't remember bad, you have to get to the ramp sliding and quite angled, so that you begin spinning very quickly and get the 4 spins (you usually get 3, but insist and you'll get 4).

    Thanks, I'll do so. Still missing 175k for that one though...

    Now buddy...triple boost when used in time trail... I do not think is a "rookie" move... since it is being used intentionally and deliberately...see if that helps...it is needed to be in the 58's no doubt ;)

    But the self destruct button of the Lykan gets even more real again however when doing so
