    Sorry, I don't think I saw it. Feel free to PM me the direct link to your post and I'll check it out.

    I've raised the issue of clone accounts again to the game team and Fabien. I haven't heard anything back on the issue yet, but I'm sure they are discussing our options on what we can do.

    I have a suggestion and other suggestions that I would like to add.

    -To avoid matches like the screenshot I posted early. Everyone's car vehicle should be revealed in the lobby. When we press someone's profile it will reveal us what car and what car rank they are using so one can avoid unfair matches. Items can be invisible.
    - Mercedes Benz Biome rank needs to be raised higher. Could even be a A rank. I needed to specifically point this out since one can't see this with common sense. B rank events shows biome a lower rank than Benz clk gtr amg and does better. Fabien says rank reflects cars power. Well the event doesn't show a clk anywhere to be seen.
    - People who get disconnected in first place should not lose 10 points. This is probably one of the most causes of rank decreasing. I do 2 laps long map, I'm in the lead and I suddenly get disconnected near the finish line. I check WiFi and I'm connected, I check the events,sales and even there was no spinning circle near my credit amount. I'm in first and I lose points for no reason. I check WiFi and its not my falut.
    - infected and elimination mode should be preselected as well. Make the rewards even greater than classic mode to encourage people playing this mode.
    - The amount of creds reflected upon laps is still unfair. 2 laps of Tokyo and 2 laps of Dubai cannot result in the same rewards. One map takes significantly longer than the other which discourages people from wasting time in big maps like that as well as disconnection risk. The longer you are in the race, should result more creds,exp,etc.
    - Make a no item server and for events as well. More items are being used in events and less items are being gained in return. The true skills will be revealed if items didn't exist. I don't want to use items against people who I could of won against without it - really is a waste. The ghost list is also affected by this. The ones who have unlimited items are in an advantage.
    - Rating rewards need to get reworked. The system needs to tell what is possible and what is not possible for the player. As you can see in my previous post screenshot. I came last with an A rank car that cant even reach over 400km/h and I lose points for doing my best. Best example is using a high A rank car in a multiplayer match. The first lap you will manage to get away with it. The second lap the High S rank tier will pass you and gain points while your hard work is a waste of time and results in loss of points. The High A rank cars to low S rank cars are ruined in multiplayer too badly that they cannot compete at all. My suggestion is if you come in top 3 with an A rank car against an S rank car. You should gain points because you were the best for your class. Ex: dodge challenger against B rank cars, Mercedes benz gtr against A rank cars. Also points should be rewarded to whoever stays the longest in that position. I was first in 2 laps dubai reverse and I had an urge to do a flat spin for more money and I hit the aladin hotel sign. When I respawed I came in 4th and I regret doing any stunts in this game when in the lead. Especially with high A rank cars I was 1st for the entire toyko race until the last finish line I got over taken by a S rank car and I lose points for coming in second.

    This is all I can think of now. Please discuss and I regret saying to greet me. Where's my welcome! I'm sorry!

    I don't understand how people just sit and pay loads of money for a game that's now not even possible to progress without paying for anything. I miss the golden age of iOS gaming when game loft made quality titles that you could pay for and simply progress normally. Asphalt 6 was the best in this regard. It was loads of fun and you payed 6.99. Dungeon hunter 2 was also a quality title that was great for a mobile game. But now instead of focusing on quality it's just con after con of trying to yank money from people. The saddest thing is the morons who eat it up. We have iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2 that are just powerhouse devices that are riddled with garbage games that could be so much more. Then there are amazing games like monument valley that charge 1.99 for an upgrade pack and people whine like little babies. I seriously don't understand people.

    Who the hell seriously buys all the garbage they push with every update?

    I'm just happy I didnt get to spend much real $$$ on this game. I joined just soon enough to actually have fun with it, which GL has al but ruined.

    I'll just do what I do to anyone doing buissiness like a drug dealer, ignore em, and move on.

    Nuf mula GL, and you got Only your self to thank for it!

    As much as I hate IAP and wish they would tone it down, the company has to make money somehow. Don't forget that GL is a fairly large organization that has to somehow support itself, and we have no reason to expect a free game from them. Yes I agree the prices are really high, yes I agree that mp is broke, yes I agree that the game should be 100% completable without IAP, but in all honesty, Asphalt 8 has done a wayyyyyyyyyyy better job than other IAP games like Real Racing 3. And while some of you may not see them as comparable, I do and I think that Asphalt hasn't gone to total hell yet like RR3 has.
    Just my two cents.

    Hey with the golden cup we have a chance to see if the McLaren P1 still reigns supreme. I set a 52.162 with a near-perfect lap in the P1 (two mistakes that slowed me down, could be 52 flat or even sub 52) with no double tank. If the Savage GTR can get a pretty decent sub 52, then it will probably be the new A-class king. I'm not banking on it though...
    let us know if anyone goes sub 52 with the GTR

    A player called Summer_TopGun went 51.051 with the Savage GTR on the worldwide leaderboard (using all 3 boosters).

    Is there a car offered for the Golden Cup? It only shows 30,000 credits for me.

    I'm getting tired of San Diego in MP. People choose it every damn time, and it's an option nearly every time. I bet 90 out of the last 100 races I've ran have been SD.

    I get that it's new, but seriously people, choose something else occasionally. This is much worse than Dubai, because at least then there was also a reverse option to mix it up.

    Just credits.

    P1 still leads USA leaderboard. There's a couple GTRs in the top 10, but they had to use extra tank. The P1's are there without the ET (don't really need it on SDR with the nitro efficient P1).

    Hi all, my first post here, though i have been reading up on this forum for the past 2 months. I'd have to say thanks Hector for posting fast lap times on the TLEs, it helps alot!

    Was actually becoming active on the gameloft forums itself till the thread got abit off-topic, so I've decided to start posting here instead as it seems more relevant.

    Though Asphalt 8 is getting ridiculous in it's IAP, Upgrades (Savage GTR costs more to upgrade than a 3 mil One:1) and MP (Ubisoft just keeps on Digging Aye?), it's still better than RR3 in these aspects.

    Guess Zeromoniar and DarkSolid will be more active here too? :eek:

    That's the problem of the GTR. He is pretty fast, but nitro of P1 is much longer . I think without extra tank the GTR has no chance against P1. With extra tank maybe, as you can keep it under nitro all the time.

    It used to be like that when Asphalt 8 was new, and people quit rooms whenever they realized they weren't racing inferior cars only. It's a tradeoff, but I think hiding the cars is the better solution overall.

    Did anyone ever post the level 4 and 5 GTR upgrade prices? Trying to figure out how much credits I need for tomorrow, farming has not gone to plan this week at all, only at 2.5m or so but have 2 nitro 1 acceleration and 1 handling to claim from top 500 in yesterday's cup so hoping that will save at least half a million or so. I dunno how I found the time or motivation to make over 6m in a week to get the k1 lol!

    That's true. I remember - the old days :) . But you are right, I also think current system is better. GL should improve matching algorithm. Anyhow, I think the classes D-B are overcrowded now. But I can understand why people do not use S or A class. With A you are matched to superior S class cars due to lack of proper ranked opponents. In S class the K1 has no real opponents. But even when you drive with K1 you are faced with the problem that the lobby is very empty (usually I get only 3 opponents, which would result in zero points, so I skip that). With everyone leaving S/A the amount of opponents decreases and the problem gets more severe. A race to the bottom. :(

    Thank you :)

    I guess the double credits boost I just paid for was a waste of money then lol! Still have another couple of million in other upgrades to go tho so might just try and blast it anyway to get fully maxed once and for all.

    Thanks :)

    High sensitivity is better option if you use on screen tap or external keyboard/gamepad to play. But maybe with tilt control is a bit harder

    About Andy, first time I hear about that :confused:

    It happen me sometimes...
    With screen tap control or external keyboard you have to turn using micro touchs. So, you have to press repeated times turn key quickly

    You're welcome, I'm glad :)
