Just above 700k and 1.1m for the dezir and felino respectively. Amazing cars,these two totally worth it, for both tles and mp.
Ugh! First time ever, my phone completely died today, needing a complete restore to bring it back. The last time I had backed up was in October. When I opened A8, I've lost a ton -- over half my credits gone; had a maxed Biome that is now 6 upgrades away from max; had a venom (that had bought on sale), a maxed Ferrari 308 (or close to it-- can't exactly remember) and Felion that I don't have any more; and a bunch of stars. Wish my mistakes had disappeared (Koenigsegg Agera!!!!), but alas, those were long ago. This seems like a giant hole in the game -- no wonder its so easy to cheat. Gameloft should know how many credits I have; which cars I have and what ranks they are. (Well they do know -- I can see my ghost time for the Biome, showing a 1550 rank vs my current 1529; etc). Oh yeah -- that Mercedes multiday Cup -- I've lost the 1st few days of cups too... and didn't do great in the dezir cup; but did ok, and there is no indication of that up; or a 'claim rewards' As is, clearly the credits, cars, and upgrades are stored *only* locally. That just offers way to many options for cheating. Anyone have any similar experience? Any way to restore cups; cars, tuning stats; stars and credits? thanks
I just reset my phone last Saturday. And after I installed the A8 and open it, it will auto sync and everything comes back -- the credits, tokens, stars, cars, pro-cards, etc. Only lost all the fastest records in career mode and the cups on that day. But I can easy get back the cups by racing immediately.
Hey hey, what's the record time for maxing out the cars? I have a Total Play Time of 4 Days and 13 Hours with the D Class and C Class cars maxed (with the exception of the premium cars and the Renault DeZir that was recently added). I am currently buying all the B Class cars and then going to max them all, but I think I'm getting a bit tired of all the grinding. Am I fast or slow? Anyway, I just want to hurry up and finish it all. The Pro Kits are going to take forever. I bet it'll take a year or more due to the limit of being able to buy 4 a day with credits (well, there are the rewards from the cups of course). Geez, I can't get the cards I want at all. Just bought the Rimac Concept One and Biome...going for Mazda Furai next. All I know is that I am going to have a lot of pain in maxing those cars. Those and the stupid Savage Rivale GTR which costs 2800k for no apparent reason at all. Oh and I'm pissed at how I can't win the Race Against the Clock Cup. I have a Rank 1414 Felino cb7 (curse me for using the cards on other C Class cars) and I used all the boosts. The fastest time I got was 1:02:262 and I can't get any lower. Argh, those 8 tech cards! I want them! Also, I don't understand why people in the leaderboard use a extra tank for this cup. With the rank of 1500+, I see a lot of people getting around 0:57-59 only with the nitro boost and tuning kit. Therefore, I don't think there is any need to even use a extra tank at all. What's with those people competing for the fastest time when it isn't even a division cup? You get the same rewards as long as you get lower than 1:02:00 anyway.
I am coming on here to have a rant.! I have had it with these cheating clans on iOS. Every TLE with prizes worth winning gets invaded by sky and summer multiple accounts, they wait until the cup has closed and then up load their times forcing those that were in winning positions out of the prizes. GL know about this and have yet to do anything about it. How can they not do something about it, it's easy don't payout the rewards untill 24 hours after the cup and take a record of all those that were in the prizes at the close of the cup and anyone who enters late gets banned ! It's not hard GL I have lost a car and countless boxes due to this, and the only way to solve this is to stay up all night waiting for the rewards to be released, I have a life to live you know !!!
You should have saved cards up for only the fastest in each class, else the randomness of the cards will make you wait forever for a particular card you need for the next upgrade. In the race against time cup, there is no need to use any boosts at all, I did 1:01:xx off my first lap unboosted in my 1506 felino. I guess everyone got used to using boosts for tles.
Maybe you need to connect your A8 to a fb or g+ account. Then it backs it up at least at every start of the game. Works very fine for me, when I was moving my stats to a new device.
You're thinking like a legit player, who has to invest time and/or money to acquire extra tanks. That doesn't necessarily apply to the people you see at the top of the leaderboards. Anyway, kudos to Gameloft for doing another time-based event. It's been a while, and like a lot of us said when they first did one, those events are the best. People will still cheat, but at least they can't cheat honest players out of their rewards. PS: Mylene said the 932 DeZir was 4-3-3-5, if I remember correctly.
The DeZir is probably the most strategic thing Gameloft has done. A car that sucks stock, but reigns supreme when triple upped? It's quite clever, incentivizing people to *at least* run a tuning kit all the time. Expect to see more cars with monster increases with tuning kits. It's quite the new fave of mp twinks who joyride instead of racing.
Yes that's really annoying and GL's indifference is even worse. I was monitoring the most recent Renault DeZir Cup and these are what I found. For the last 4 fours of the cup. My spot moves down and up for 1 or 2 positions for 2-3 times but by the time it ended, the overall ranking almost didn't change (or dropped 1 position only.) Now the TLE ended and my ranking begins falling slowly. 3 hours later when I can claim my prize, my ranking dropped 20 positions...that's a lot if you consider that the last 4 hours my position basically didn't change. I checked it just now and found that my ranking dropped another 20 spots! I am still in top 100 so it means that at least 40 mysterious players appeared on the top 100 somehow after the TLE ended. I don't know how but I believe the technique required to stop this happening won't be too complicate and GL don't do a thing about it. Now I am aware of this so my goal for a TLE have to lift 50 positions for a TLE somehow before it ends. Say for prizes given to top 250, aiming for 200 or above to secure the prize. But still, seeing this happening again n again is really really xxxx. Oh well.
The record time is like 13 seconds, the time it takes to give a clan your information and start using every car in the game. In terms of the third tank, if you were trying to set a decent time for that go-kart car, your best bet was with the extra tank. Probably folks were rocking the tank when they took a jab at the Alps timed deal. And, by the way, Barcelona is about as straight forward of a track as you can get. I'm still a second off, though. Must be some little trick somewhere maybe something with the big jump.
Glad I'm not alone. You having any luck figuring out where that extra time is? I tried a few different routes but didn't have much luck. I might do more with the extra tank later, if I have time more jumps, triples, etc. Not digging this car's aileron (barrel) rolls, kind of a dud for me. So, going to mess with the big jump, look at a flat spin or two, take the tunnel, etc. Just want to get down to a 1:08.5, I'd be happy with that. Need .7 of a second to get there, though. Hoofta, that's a crap-ton of time.
Even my 1-2-1-2 full pro DeZir owns everything mp using Kit, even cars 100+ rank above me, ofc, it will be upgrades as coins allow for it We're pretty much at the same place. Sure, I've got me a few boxes with cash, but I've been cleverly tuning my cars, sonce the Pro thing doesnt make us all equall in MAX( ehfliuwf worse thing they did to A8) Cept for the A class cars, I've pretty much gone the same way you did. Always seem to have suitable car, both for mp and tle, and thats because I take great care not Fully Pro any car cuz I can, but rather chosen the pro kits best suited to make a car better, and not to run into 1700 One1's when driving my 1560 Zonda. Best advice I can give anyone, take great care in choosing what to pro, which kits to pro (IE what would make the car better without maxing it to GL hell) Many cars are way better if not fully pro With the pricetag on that car, I can understand competition is tough towards Rotten. What I have noticed, is if I barrel either side of big jump, I get less airtime(Not sure though if either side is better running it regular way) Is this smthn to consider? Even more amazing is how the DeZir drives, tracks telling me if I should go nitro 1/perfect, or even going to 2 and 3 if I am closing on jump/bottle. And the nitro duration in general. If only the F150 was like that http://asphalt.wikia.com/wiki/Vehicles_of_Asphalt_8 Will show you pretty much most stats of most cars. Its wikia style, so not ALL is there, but a very helpfull tool 1:Know that you have a beter time then them, then it wont matter what they throw into the basket, or am I missing something? 2: If you're not better, deal with it, anyhow you need. Change your priorities concerning A8, if your current style of gaming it is unsatesfactory, for whatever reason really. Personaly, I've had to redefine my relationship to A8 so many times, I just go where the fun is. ATM, playing this crap way to much has brought on myalgia around my left shoulder, so I cant do more then 5, 10 races tops before I need to put it away (No more grinding nada for me^^ ) Mentioned it higher up. Is barrel of side of big jump an alternative, as in my experience, it reduce airtime (Mind you, I my self DO find it hard to pull off barrels on flat ramps on a regular basis)
That extra second is gained by driving off of edges right before ramps. Use the falling air speed increase plus half second nitro window to kick off the ramps for their air speed boosts. You're basically doubling down on air speed increases.
As for this PRO thing, let me share a stream of thoughts. As an example: When Proing my Survolt, I noticed a significant improvement in how the car handles turns. I Simply could keep a higher speed in turning, without understeering.(To me a HUGE improvement in the quality of the car) This again, does not mean you need to neither Max nor Pro your survolt/(Insert fav car] Rather, the Pro has added the option to actually give, OR remove an essential componenet of driving any car. As a more negative example, my Camaro GS had perfect steering when MaX, but after 3-4 total handeling pro upgrades, its has started to oversteer, so, A bad move. If you consider both these points, you will understand that any or all your favorit car in the game, may be able to Upgrade/proed to significantly increase how the car is to drive, and as mentioned, ruin a perfect ride Hope this rant will help some of the members to better enjoy the game, without chasing cards, chasing MAX AND Pro, neither is nessesary, except for your TLE cars of choice ofc, at the same time possibly making em a crappy mp car, but that's why we got like 80 cars to choose from, RIght ? ^^
I checked videos with 1.08.x. I do not see any difference. I always remark that I loose already one second directly at the beginning. Maybe a device lag.
really? i can usually tell try compare how tight the corners are, drifts, air speed, air time, stuff like that and if you record your runs, you can compare the 2 videos at the same place and see the time difference
Came here to warn you about maxing/pro-ing the Rimac. If your intention is the same as mine, which is to practice the Sector 8 track, then max but don't go pro on the clunker a car. If your intention is to have one of the best B class cars for MPL or TLEs, abort mission now! Max and pro the Biome instead. Trust me. I am the owner of a fully maxed and half pro-ed Rimac that still drives as if the handling is at Level 2. Do correct me on my impression of the Rimac if anyone has the opposite experience. Given time and token/monetary constraint, you might want to weigh the cost/benefit of grinding with or without the Double Credit option if grinding has become unbearable. I do not regret the two instances when I chose the double credit option, which is a time and sanity saver. Just make sure you have your favorite TV epsiodes lined up on Netflix/HBO/...etc. _____________ Props to GL for being more generous, or rather, more realistic with tokens to increase game participation from a wider audience base. GL must have met sizable resistance from customers who would rather not spend too much real money to gain token-only cars, a behavior that probably affects GL's bottom line in the long run since no money is generated from the real cash cows - compliment services like extra tanks and pro-card boxes. Or perhaps GL just wants to prevent the following from happening again: one of the first TLE races with a tokens-only car had just 60/100 top players after the first hour! Oh and I second the suggestion for more time-based events.
