    I'm having a problem importing my game profile from iPod to iPad. I started the game on iPod and made some progress, earned some credits... When I try to start the game on my iPad it says that it found my Gamecenter account but the cloud profile has basic starting stats and does not reflect my iPod save progress. It has the default avatar picture and 1500 credits, no achievements or career progress.

    I have been afraid to allow it to load that profile in case it somehow screws up progress when I go back to the iPod, so I've avoided allowing it to load the save or link the profiles. Anyone having a similar issue?

    Hmm. So in other words, load the wrong file into the cloud, then overwrite it with the correct one? By "overwrite cloud" does that mean the "Link" option?

    So is this a glitch or did I do something wrong?

    There will be news, just not right now :p The E3 build was an alpha build so just keep that in mind, so that should put things into perspective about how far along the game is.

    EDIT: Also please check with #######, she has more up to date info than I do usually since she's so heavily involved with the MC series. She's usually my go to source :)

    That's good. By the way the name got censored. I don't know why.

    Unless she got replaced or something, the name is Candi_ce. For some reason TA considers it inappropriate.

    For the people that are very close to finishing the game, will the Ferrari F12 with some upgrades enable me to finish season 8? My best car in that class is the Corvette C7, and I am finding that it isn't performing as well in some of the later events.
    Also, what are the barrel roll locations in the map French Guiana? One of the challenges requires me to do 6, however I only found one location, the one behind the rocket ship at the beginning of the race.

    @Gameloft_Ryan I was wondering if you could pass a suggestion onto the Dev teams: When in Perfect Nitro can your car survive head on collisions? One thing that I don't like in this game is that when you activate perfect nitro, you don't become invincible like in previous titles. Although this is my personal problem, I am partially colorblind and when in Prfect Nitro the extra screen effects make it hard to see oncoming cars.
    Another suggestion that I know many other players would like to see is some type of computer autopilot when in the knockout sequence. There have been multiple times where I knockout an opponent, only to wreck myself because I wasn't able to control my vehicle during the action sequence.

    Thanks everyone for the savegame tips. I ended deleting and reinstalling, as it was the only way to get a clean game. I bought D and C car packs and without purchasing a single car with in-game currency nor updating any D or C cars, I'm as far as season 4 (just unlocked, no races done) with around 77k coins.

    I have got all the stars from season 1, missing Citroen Survolt and B class stars in season 2 and all the stars from seasons 3 and 4 which involve high end cars (got some stars for perfect sections, but not for winning in the Cadillac event, for example).

    The best tips I can give for future gamers and people who want to restart progress is to choose wisely which cars to buy with in-game currency before buying any at all. Also, if you plan to buy a car pack, do it after a fresh start, since that will make the most of your real money.

    I still have to gather several stars before choosing/deciding which B and A cars to buy. What I have clear is that the S car I'll buy first is the Lamborghini, because it's quite cheap for the money you achieve in S races.

    Something I'm quite sure about is that just by buying the D and C car packs you can't buy all the B, A and S cars without grinding. Maybe buying B car pack you'd get it, but I find the price gets too steep from that car pack onwards (18€ the B cars, 45€ the A cars and 90€ the S cars). I think car pack prices are based not only on the total cost of cars, but also on the amount of game cash you'd be able to make with all those cars. Anyway, I'll let you know how I progress with just the D and C car packs.

    @Ryan: I'm pretty sure the "restore purchases" option only applies to the car pack IAP's, not to the rest of the purchases (IAP for in-game currency nor in-game purchases of cars).

    Hey, all, for those who have used both the Marussia and the Corvette: what's the better buy. I have 60 k burning a hole in my virtual pockets.

    Any help is appreciated.

    The Corvette is the better buy.

    Corvette is awesome. Just awesome. GT-R is best though. It's my favourite car because it looks awesome, kicks ass and I spent alot of money upgrading it.

    Kinda funny, and your edit says Plugging poopheads.

    Wow, first time I didn't see this thread in the first page.

    Made it to season two, pretty fun game. Looking forward to buying some cool new cars one day.

    Is this the gate drift race in season 6? Just use the ramp, do a U-turn, drive past it, do another U-turn, and use the ramp again. Repeat until finished. Since it's a gate drift, you don't have to worry about getting disqualified for time.
