?A bit of copy and paste from face book, you can,t believe how much file sharing goes on, It may not be strictly cheating but It make s a mockery of GL and all of us that earnt our cars and boosters "I can understand your anger bro. But unfortunatly there is already nothing really fair in this game, but dont complain to us bro coz it s all about GL's fault, do u think that really fair to learn points by only play hours and hours? Come on .. we have our life, we have to study and work, if there r 50 persone that get nothing to do but play 24 on 24 and win this car, do u think that s fair? no more skill only paly for days without stop can win, do u think that s fair? And our team has a member that sacrifaced his 3 days for getting this car and share to us I dont see nothing wrong, no one is using cheat or hack, we just share our cloud to not pay cash to GL. We just use some legit method to share cars. Sky members do the same thing, and they r all my friends I know that they r all legit players. Summer does the same thing, Open too, Kb too, all teams do that just to gain cars and race, in other hand, that s also a way to be against the behavior of GL, they want cash, we dont give, but we still race. I dont think that u will be happy to be the first on the leaderboard without us or sky just because we dont have that car for no having 3 whole days for playing and no wanting pay cash o no having cash. So, hope that u understand, and I really suggest u to join some team, then u will not race alone, u will not risck losing some cars for GL's bad marketing technique."
It's definitely cheating. You get access to IAP cars without even trying to play for them? And you then use those cars to participate in exclusive cups and take away potential rewards from others who have legitimately won or paid for them? How does that constitute honest playing? And I don't believe that only one member from Elite competed to try to win that car. That's a lie. Elite does seem to be one of the smaller clans out there, but that doesn't mean there was only one guy playing for them. These clan players are generally all very good, so I guess many of them have superiority complexes and think they are entitled to receive everything in the game, whether it's IAP cars or extra tanks. By the way, TheDrChee (who used to post on this forum before I called him out for cheating) appears twice on the Roadyacht divisional cup (I think it's only 1 division, since not enough people own the car yet) leaderboard. He still hasn't given up on using his multiple accounts and obtaining IAP cars for free. Fabien or Ryan, if you're reading this, please pass it on that there's a cheater called TheDrChee who needs to have his multiple accounts banned.
What a bullshiet! It's the same as justyfying stealing from the rich or stealing food because you're hungry. Stealing is stealing and cheating is cheating. Even if GL is not fair with those unreasonably high preemium prices there are still lot of people playing honestly and such cheating hit the most right them, not GL. The person who wrote this bullsh!t must be a complete idiot or a terrible hypocrite. Or most probably both. I have no respect for that kind and would never belong to a clan who openly admits to use cheats. It is only a game to bring fun and prove your skills. If you cheat, you prove nothing but having not enough skills to play, that's all. Edit: one more thing: I think you all know about Lance Armstrong. With his cheating he took lot of victories from other sports man who worked honestly and very hard for most of their lives. If not him a few carriers whould probably go another more glorious ways but he simply destroyed others life's hard work. It is of course much more serius example comparing to cheating in game but still it takes the fun from the honest players who prove the most value to the creators of the game (which on the other hand GL seem not to care much as they should!). It's just sad.
Do you feel the same way about the trick to re use double tanks? As they all do this as well but at least they may have earnt those tanks in the first place.
Absolutely. I only use extra tanks when I absolutely need them (for divisional car tournaments, or when I play MP for 4 hours, which only happens 1-2 times per week at this point). Right now, I've only got 5 extra tanks. But I know I'll be able to win 2-3 more next week in the Mazda Furai divisional cup, so if I use 2 extra tanks this week, I'll able to maintain my number of overall tanks when I collect my rewards on Friday night. It's all about thinking ahead and managing your tanks. But if you have access to infinite extra tanks like almost all clan members do, you don't have to worry about managing them, which gives you a huge advantage; you can use them even to play insignificant daily tournaments.
This multiple account issue was raised MONTHS ago. My impression is that they may just be incapable of solving it, and unwilling to ban these people. Instead they came up with ideas like division cup then MP TLEs to sort of dodging the real problem. 1. Division cup makes the multiple accounts less noticeable to players 2. MP TLE minimizes the point of using multiple account, but at a even higher cost to regular players, which I don't have to explain. Clan members now just focus on one account and relay it day and night, then clone the account to everyone in the team.
more gameplay discussion... yesterday i did the math on (C cup) mpe; and constantly running boosters only to win back the credits... even with top 100, you will negative credits by the time you reach ~3k points. and when you do, the points for win are so small, so i went to sleep (8th in division) and woke up 4hrs later... (148th in division) im gonna keep racing, but ive long since stopped boosting because math
See the loop effect now? GL limits more, people cheat more because "IT'S UNFAIR, WAAAH!", GL doesn't get money so more limits. OH MY GOSH THE WRITING'S TERRIBLE! (Hypocrite alert! ) Jokes aside, I can understand his reasons... to an extent. People deseperately want to win car tournaments, should it be for the car, for the other stuff, for completion or just for bragging rights. And we don't want to waste too much of our time trying to get a car. And now, GL introduces IAP-only cars, which give you only one chance. But to cheat just because you can't win a car? Sounds like crybaby talk to me. Who said they didn't try? It's probably one of the reasons why they do this: they tried, then failed horribly. Eh, we're talking about the king who just keep taking more and more taxes from his people. Then some guys call themselves 'heroes' and steal money from the king to give it back to the others. Wouldn't it be solved if the 'heroes' stopped stealing and the king took a reasonable amount of taxes? (I shall explain my metaphor if someone didn't get it) GL, here's a request: bring back the car reward limits to where it first was: 100 (that's the limit for the Clio, IIRC, and I don't know if there was anything before that), and division limits to 3/5. Then give more chances for IAP cars (like, in random events like Easter, Halloween or a random test drive). I won't complain if you don't want to. I had enough with complaining anyway.
It always blows up for me, but if I inch to far forward while waiting on it, it will respawn on top of me and instantly be infected again, and I don't get the bonus time. That's another "bug" with this infection TLE, if you're not nitro-ing when you hit a non-infected AI, you won't get the bonus time. They'll become infected and you get nothing for it.
It makes me laugh,these clans saying they are doing the honourable thing, The only way this would be the case is if the opened up their save file to ANYONE that wanted them. At the moment they are just trying to cheat their way to get what they want, which is ultimately unrewarding. Losers.
sometimes, especially with online games, it takes too many resources to stop a "small number" of hackers/cheaters, and the 99% of players can still enjoy the game. i understand when you get stuck in a cheaters division, so you can't make that #1 spot, and, if it's top 5 for the car, then there are 5 cheaters.... i get it. you never make a perfect game. the loophole or exploit they use, will always be there. not the same exact one, but modified or a different. when its a game glitch, like -- fall in the water, respawn in the ship -- you can patch that. but code tricks like "change my country, change the date/time, then clone myself" <<for example>> are system errors related to OS more so than the structure of the game itself.
I don't think sharing and using these save files would be an "honorable thing". It is no difference from cheating. It is not a "small number" for A8.
The country change is the smallest problem here. And dealing with sharing data to get iap cars and infinite double tanks is not a difficult thing. GL could easily check if user using a car has realy won in in a tournament or bought it with real money. The same applies to noob tanks which can be also obtained only with money or as tle prizes (some can be obtained from car collections but it would only require to keep the information in the cloud if a user already got it) so they'd (GL) keep track of its amount and perform a check when user gets online. They should only have to keep some more data on their side and cheating in online modes would be significantly cut down. And what cheaters do offline in single mode... nobody cares
GL is working on it. We can expect a fix for these exploits soon. Ahhahahhahahahhahahaa!!! Yeah, right.
Stealing from the Man and giving to the masses allows you to claim to be Robin Hood. Stealing from the Man and sharing the spoils with your "mates" makes you just a Thief.
^^^^^^^^^^^^ GL reps, READ please Word velandil, though at my level, I got more issues with pve noobs trying to play bumper cars in mp starts
Some of the users in that Facebook Asphalt 8 group are infuriating, particularly a few in or related to the Elite clan on Android (not Hector; he's cool ). But I hate getting into arguments with them, because they usually express themselves with the writing skills and rationality of 10-year-olds, and I end up feeling like I've insulted my own intelligence by doing so.
And now Elite is openly recruiting members for their clan in the Facebook group, promising free IAP cars to anyone that they accept.
