    heh. Turns out my fastest car is now the P1, so using that. I keep not having enough midtech cards to get anywhere with my max'd Lycan. And still grinding for the K1.

    Yeah all 10 of the 10 top spots on Windows are already filled by fully upped 9FFs. They're all Chinese players I'm sure they're totally legit. Oh well. I'll just mail it in again, skate into the top 500 and move on. Pointless to try to get into the Top 50.

    It may be the dumbest thing I have seen in any games. It slow down the interface, show an empty "ad" that is broken that stay on screen in single player game, and shows a still broken "ad" when you click on it:

    And then continue to take over the banner space on your screen until you quit the app.

    It's like they are begging us to quit.

    It's an award for the big kids in the mobile gaming industry. Here's how to enter the competition for a Global Mobile Award:

    That's chump change for a corporation like Gameloft, of course. But I can tell you from first hand experience that it's a lot of money for a new developer who just started their business.

    So it makes sense that Gameloft would celebrate that kind of success with the big kids among their customers — i.e., those who are in a similar position with regard to spending money on in-app purchases. This is business, not eSport. :)

    Quick question : can a 1688 P1 beat a 1700 K1 on Barcelona ?
    It's not possible right ?
    Wrong :p (Windows leaderboard on Global Mobile Award cup) :

    Isn't that a bit suspicious ?

    Actually not. If you check on Youtube Hectorx's times/videos you will find a P1 (1611) with 1.02..... time (Android)

    Are you 'grinding' in MP or Seasons? And, when grinding, do you use double-credit option?

    i really wanted a chance at those 5000 tokens but okay....
    They also could have made 2 of these cups :p one for the little kids and one for the big kids
    BUT WHAT'S WITH THESE ADS WHILE RACING :mad:
    It's not too bothersome for me (doesn't do anything) but for others apparently 15 second unskippable video ads come up (in mp and normal) and the race doesn't pause

    Wait, are the decal rewards in the latest cups exclusive decals? Not available for purchase except that one time when it is given out in an event? I've never won any, but that is what people told me.

    Kind of sucks because I'm a completionist. Many card-based games would offer limited/exclusive cards for a certain period of time only, making it impossible to own every event card unless you pay to win every time.

    Asphalt 8 never had this problem as everything is available for purchase no matter what. Kind of sucks if this true (if it is not, please tell me). Oh well.

    Yes it seems so. They are not shown if you haven't won them in the decal list.

    My wifes Xperia Z has the same issues, no matter quality settings. One mp race, I got started like 10 seconds after the rest of the field had left startline.
    Android is put away for now. Cant restart phone each time I wanna borrow her phone

    Not at all really.

    Experienced drivers can actually handle their cars, and "so called" slower cars like P1 or GTR gives the driver far more time to find the optimal lines.
    Sure, the K1 does like 540kph, but a lot more is happening at those speeds, choices made faster, easier to make mistakes, even if its only about holding the line, fill up with perfect runs not happening cuz K1 drivers, even the better ones have a much harder time staying of the walls.

    In short, with My GTR I can maintain max speed for a longer time then 1700 sclass cars, whos overall speed sure aint 540kph

    Not for those times. I'm at 1:02.007 with an unboosted, single tank 1688 P1 in iOS.

    Well, I might not fit the definition of true Grinding. I find the fastest way to get credits is the Season 9 Dubai Biome (~5000 credits for <1 min race). But I get bored pretty quickly with those races. Winning a MP race nets ~3500/race credits for me; but, both take a lot longer (lobby wait times; frequent 2-3 lap races on long courses), and has more variability (pros and cons). To make MP race more consistent, need to use the boosters, which then mostly makes MP a break even thing.

    I've only used the double credit once-- I rarely find I have enough consecutive time to spend to make it worthwhile.

    But it was with a 1611 rank P1
    With a 1688 I think even 59 should be possible.
    At this moment a friend has 59.1xx with a 1698 P1...
    The thing is that a 1700 K1 can do 58 seconds...

    Do you mean 58s with the double tank or single tank ?
    It would be interesting to make a video about it :)

    Haven't posted here in a while, how's it been?

    I keep getting trolled with common V8s. My one:1 is only at 1689. I'm interested in seeing how a heavily Pro'd Savage GTR or P1 will fare against top S-class cars. Guess I should go back to farming.

    Barcelona favors fast cars. Mercedes or Agera at least...

    I have 1.02.038 but I don't have any tanks and my tuatara is only 1/1/2/1 pro
