LOL... I wish I had a recording, I was going 1.02 in Barcelona reverse in a 1670 tuatara, top speed, and this 1778 9FF rolls past me like nothing. I had him on launch though. 1.01
With over 100 rank/points in hand, I guess you're lucky he didn't go through you, mate. Maybe he was going so fast by you that you were just a blur. That's some match up, so fair not.
Some more food for thought regarding points-accumulating cups. There was some talk about it before, and I threw out a spitball formula, as well as talk about how the number of racers factored in. You get a number of points equal to how many racers you beat. That's how it works. So coming in 2nd in an 8 player race will pay more than coming in 1st in a 6 (or less) player race. Coming in fourth in an 8 player pays out more than coming in 1st in a 4 player, which is ridiculous. I've slowly been edged out of the top twenty on the current cup because I can't catch a break on races. Now we can see how crucial it is to 'fish' for high player count races rather than settle for a 4 or 5 player race. Consider this: 1st in two 8 player races = 14 racers beat 1st in four 4 player races = 12 racers beat (less points for twice as many Fuel bars' investment) It's more important to be in a high player count race than it is to come in first. Anyway, I thought I'd share that. You can quickly figure out what the payout-per-beaten is and estimate your 'climb' or 'fall' rate expectations. Placement pays out arithmetically rather than exponentially, which also means that racing cautiously is a long-term winning strategy. Fighting for first isn't worth it if you're going to have a mishap and lose 2 placements. You're essentially betting 2 (or more) for 1 -- a 50% payoff. Remember: placing 4th in an 8 player is worth more than placing 1st in a 4 player. Heck, coming in fifth in an 8 player race gets you as many points as coming in first in a 4 player race. Oh, also? Congrats, GameLoft. You've successfully nerfed the system so hard in favor of 'Pay to Win' that you've made coming in first place in a racing game meaningless. TL;DR - Cup points are based on how many players you beat, not how you place.
No, the Enzo is like the XTR of S class, but has a much higher top speed than anything else. Nitro duration rating of 14 isn't great, but I think it'll do fine with ET on most tracks simply because it is so fast. Credits is probably the least of concerns because even if you MAX it, you might not have the cards needed to PRO it to be competitive. Yes, the F50 is much more predictable than the Biome. I'll definitely be switching over to the F50 when it comes to shop. If you really want to blow your tokens, get the Champion box. Everyone in the top 20 is gonna be 1:11:9xx or less...by using Driver R's time as reference. I will stick it out farming for tokens for the VMAX as well, I just want to have a car with great nitro for every class. Dezir (D), Felino (C), Biome (B), P1 (A), VMAX (S) would fit the bill. Before getting the One:1 I was using Tuatara most of the time, very nice handling car and decent acceleration to match. Only problem is top speed is nowhere near the Venom. Now, it's even worse, I would consider it 3rd tier in S class with Lykan seeing how the ME412/Onyx/Venom/Aero are now 2nd tier. Still a fun car to drive, I'd like GL to bring back some of those Country vs Country cups for variety.
We might even see 1:11.6. ... I tried at least 10 runs (maybe 15) fully rocking and was still .3 from getting in the 11s (I don't know the meaning of precision). One key might be instead of going super low on first barrel roll jump, going a tad higher and getting two revolutions instead of one. That way, you might be able to triple each landing on helix road leading into the tunnel. It also helps if you can side swipe two/three AIs on the run to the first gold. I know Dark Zero, if he wanted, could get under 1:11.888.
Yesterday, the tracks that you are referring to have been added to the list of available locations in MP. They will eventually make their way to this mode. Well we would detect them and ban them if ever they were able to do so. The game has been influenced by this thread and the official forum. If you go back a few pages earlier, I am sure that you will find an example. Not to mention the addition of the two tracks that I have mentioned before. Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee that the Dev team will give their green light to every request that is mentioned here, but they do consider them all: they are truly reading this thread every day! The community’s opinion is an important factor that we take into account before changing anything in the game. We are truly thinking about new ways to rewards users & improve the level of the competition. We are fighting against cheater every day. They are taken down from the leader boards and banned. Wao, that was a pretty deep post that you've made. We do consider anyone’s opinion even if he hasn’t bought anything in our games. I will mention this cup ideas and rewards ideas to the Asphalt Team once more. Is anyone up to create a Community CUP once more? Let me know if you are and if we could improve the concept. It is totally not excluded that they would come back in other events.
Insults of such a person are in principle no problem. But those constant bullying comments are annoying, even after I have left it hasn't stopped. Hippida already told me to forget about them, they will never understand - and he is right. You are also right, the forum is unfortunately the first place for those having trouble with the game and are very angry about it. Those think 90% are cheaters. If one explains than the lag issue, they get even more upset. I suggested already Fabien to install moderators there to make it again a place for fruitful discussion and exchange of ideas and impressions about the game.
Looks like indeed the Dev Team saw my question here last week and now Mirage and the Rose of the Desert are now available on multiplayer, good to know they read this forum Fabien
Hey Dev Team, as you guys are checking this forum more frequently I ask you to please make the next Apex Wednesday Cup with full of Rotary engine cards rewards for the Mazda Furai, just like you guys did with the Apex Wednesday W16 Cup which rewards were full of W16 engine cards a few weeks ago. I think this is a reasonable petition, please
Hi Fabien thanks for your comments. I understand what you are saying up to a point, some minor details are tweaked here and there and I have no doubt it is influenced by the community, but I have been on this forum for 6 months and not a single important issue has been fixed. For anyone remotely serious about the game a bunch of fancy paint jobs does not constitute progress. There hasn't been a single improvement in reward structures, and despite your efforts the top spots are taken up by 80% cheaters. Summer clan are a prime example, two or three players set times for dozens of others, sky team do the same, open team...well what don't they do, slow motion runs, selling your game files stealing your business, I could go on all day about them. How does that leave any fairness or scraps for the rest of us? Top 20 in a cup with well over half a million people is beyond a joke, and I suspect you know it even if your role prevents you from admitting so.
I think those tough Top 20 positions are really a severe problem with respect to cheaters. Most of the players are not cheating, but due to the small amount of top positions even if only a minor fraction is doing it, it has a great influence on the leaderbords. If only 0,01% are cheating than they can completly occupy the TOP 100 if 1.000.000 people play the game.
Anyone else just get this from Twitch (not cool): "We are writing to let you know that there may have been unauthorized access to some of your Twitch user account information, including possibly your Twitch username and associated email address, your password (which was cryptographically protected), the last IP address you logged in from, and any of the following if you provided it to us: first and last name, phone number, address, and date of birth."
Unfortunately what Dave said is true, there are some very good drivers that don't get a chance, it would be great if we could have more cups where the rewards are based on beating a time, this means that the cheats still get their prizes and the talanted, honest driver still gets a chance to get into the prize level that reflects their skill. Giving away a few more prizes will make everyone less discontent and will make almost no difference to the revenue stream. Just one thing, make it cars that people actually have a chance of having full pro, then the cheats won't take all the rewards. The pay to win structure is here to stay so at least allow those that have a true talant for this game the ability to compete.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0WFRLIiOUk ARE YOU KIDDING ME, THE BEST TUNNEL TURN I'VE EVER DONE BUT I MISSED THE SECOND GOLD BOTTLE BECAUSE I WENT TOO TIGHT AGHHHHHHHHHHHHH COULD HAVE BEEN 1:11 SOOOO EASILY Read video description too bye bye enzo.....
I sincerely hope asphalt 9 starts Premuim and does a Modern Cmobat 5 style Freemuim switch if Gameloft wants to do so.
As I own Onyx and Tuatara, imho Onyx has nothing on Tuatara. If my choice was onyx and savage GTR, I'd prob go for the latter Yup, could happely ignore it tho
Don't give up! You can do it! By the way, I'm no good at offering suggestions to games, so the only thing I can do is recommend cars. What about this one? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KTM_X-Bow I see that Gameloft has included motorcycles in Asphalt 6 from the motorcycle manufacturer KTM. I thought it would be a nice nodback to the older games by featuring a car from KTM. In fact, it is the ONLY car KTM has manufactured given it is supposed to produce motorcycles after all. This would make this car unique. When fans search the car on the wiki, they can also find a nice reference to the old games that used motorcycles from this manufacturer. >.< EDIT: Didn't realize it was included in Asphalt 6. How about the newer version - the X-Bow GT4. http://www.topspeed.com/cars/ktm/2015-ktm-x-bow-gt4-ar166221.html Fabien, I think this car will be great. I have done a small poll on it https://plus.google.com/103917899825242868364/posts/Jwuw5gbkBso . It isn't much, but it is still fascinating xP. The X-Bow GT4 comes out in April this year, so snatch it and make Asphalt 8 the first game to have it >.<
