    What's funny is I got that link advertised from an Elite Clan member! Now that are openly promoting cheats? Shows how much they respect the fairness of this game. This honestly makes me so angry. @Fabien/GL please do something before I completely lose faith. :/

    Thanks for updating the spreadsheet.

    Probably open clan, they allegedly make a hell of a lot of money on the back of the game by doing just this. I know he's not exactly Mr Popular here but ChineseTastes has been fighting with open clan over this issue on tieba baidu for a long time, I know he has reported details of it to gameloft many times but it seems to be as rampant as ever. The one thing that gives me any doubt that it might be them is that I think one of their big sellers is the anti-ban hack which doesn't seem to be in the link.

    Gameloft took care of me. I emailed them about a mustang that lost its upgrades and asked for the 300,000 and it was soon added to my account :)

    I've gotten lucky with mid techs lately. I only Need 3 for that stage in my 1690 tuatara (4/1/4/3)

    I've found that if you are persistent enough and take the time to explain your issue in detail, with evidence where possible, that GL support are quite good eventually when it comes to stuff like this. Glad you got sorted.

    I think I raced you in that tuatara a few times recently, it looks good, I'd like to upgrade but I'm in too deep with K1 to turn back now. Tuatara is a really nice car even if it isn't competitive in TLEs I have a soft spot for it as it was my first real S class car (I had spano but it was in the starter pack I paid for) and my first experience of farming credits was to buy it when it was on offer at the 1 year anniversary.

    How exactly does one clone an account when everything is synced in the clouds? I wanna clone mine and sell on eBay.
    Some of the accounts offering 180+ extra tank. How? I thought GL killed restoring of extra tanks bug with an update.

    I've seen screenshots of accounts with well over 1000 extra tanks, I don't think the cloud was the only way to restore them, and with a number like that I don't even think restoring is what was even going on. Don't know how they do that mind you but I do know it's possible.

    Such things are possible in illegal way. But when I asked CC to move (not copy!) an account from one G+ account to another (family acount to acount of my daughter) I never got any answer.

    Again something different: Fabien it would be great if the probability of i4 cards is reduced. There is no other card which is needed only 8 times. So it should not have a high probability. I got already 17. As one can only sell them for credits, it is always a big disappointment for me when I get this one. I am pretty sure all others here agree.

    I have a lot of them as well, and I'm keeping them. It would be typical Gameloft if they eventually released a car that's pro'd via i4 cards only. (Actually, I haven't sold a single card yet.)

    I sold all mine last week thinking like you do, they are useless. Then I decided to look into the cars on the list that Bob Dark posted here before the Ferrari update and sure enough the first one on the list (Renault Megane RS) looks like it will use them too. Be careful selling your stockpiles too far, I have a feeling some of those cars will be coming soon, hopefully with new maps too.

    Edit: as the recent flood of both V8s coming my way appears to have shown (after months of throwing money at boxes and tokens getting very little), alongside the drying up of V12, I think GL are adjusting the drop rates to squeeze the desired cards harder than others. So the i4 may well go the same way, wish I had kept 8-12 of them now.

    Hi

    thanks for your reply a couple of days ago.I just reached 7200 points :)

    For the i4 motors I recommend you to max pro all the cars that need them and then hold at least 8 of these motors for coming D and C class cars.

    Last night when I opened my engine boxes from the Apex Cup, I got the following engines...

    i4
    Hybrid
    Hybrid
    F6
    fiV8
    fiV8

    That one i4 was such a bummer... jk
    What a ridiculously lucky draw.

    Anyone else get anything you were looking for?

    I got another orange V8 and a lot of electric engines. I have a lot of those, a ton of V6 and i4 as well. Never used f6/w16/f12/v10/rotary and only have 3 or 4 of each. I've used 4 V12s and I have 5... So some DO seem more common and some are less common.

    I'm partial to the design of the Tuatara, main reason of using it. The pro kits are lot easier

    I got one V12 which allowed me to make another 599 upgrade for the cup today, currently 39th with a poor lap so I'm hoping that I can get my act together and take advantage of not many having it full pro. Other than that I got two legendary V8 which are good but can't use them until I get one more, K1 is at 3-3-3-3 pro so it takes 3 for each upgrade now.

    Im guessing that electric/hybrid/V12/FiV8 are equally common, the rest of orange engines are half as common, and the grey engines the most common

    Fabien,

    Are you guys *positive* that Winphone and Win8 platforms are identical? I'm pretty sure that Winphone racers have a significant edge (half sec to full sec on most tracks), from racing players ghosts in identical cars on identical routes.

    I ask because if that's the case, it's a bit unfair for us to share leaderboards.

    I consistently placed in the top 20 on Android and moving to Windows I noticed a few differences in the game -- but it's also pretty wacky to me that I struggle to place in the top 50 in a pool of players a fraction of the size.

    Exactly this I am doing. I have 8 for the 2 cars that need them to pro and additional 5. I had 4 more in the past, but sold them because of full storage. But now I have enlarged my storage and will not sell them. Maybe there will be a card exchange system somewhen: 4x i4 can be exchanged in a fi v8.

    I was looking for v12 for my P4 and got 2. :) Also good was one fiv8. Then 1x electric and 1x v6 and the looser card i4.

    That's a good remark. I've noticed that too on A8 videos. On phones or tablets (ios, android, winphone), I've noted that during a drift + nitro, the cars were pointing almost immediately to the direction the player wanted to go.
    On Win 8 this will be done incrementally, which is more realistic imho, but will make you lose some time.
    The same can be said for the barrel rolls, or any other maneuvers.

    effneor,

    I can live with the turning differences, because that's probably a difference in sensors (either tilt or touch screen) used in devices... and that's not something GL can *really* control. What bugs me is that I'm *positive* the air speed physics are different.

    San Diego Reverse has two great examples. Jumping onto the warehouse, a Winphone user at max speed clears the 'lip' section of the first roof top easily, whereas in the exact same car, at the exact same max speed, and off the exact same launch point on the ramp, i'll slightly clip it or *barely* clear it. Which means they're getting more distance on their jump. Likewise, if when you jump off the carrier to the right down to where the gold bottle is (if you don't barrel), you'll land slightly behind where a Winphone user will. I'm sure it's on every jump, but those are the easiest and most noticeable ones because there are horizontal enviro breaks to gauge by.

    Honestly, I'm pretty miffed. I'm sitting at place 42 on the Windows leaderboard (2 spots off winning the car) for the F50 and I ran a *perfect* lap. Yet there are guys beating my time by a full second. The lap I ran, on on youtube videos, clocks in at 1:06:xxx, and with zero mistakes I'm at 1:07:xxx.

    It's clear from watching the videos that that the landing points are pretty different, which means every jump a Windows racer takes, they're losing time to a Winphone racer. For a while I thought it was just me acclimating to a new platform's controls, or not being positive of what I was doing racing ghosts -- but the F50 cup on SDR makes me pretty darn sure.

    I'm not asking them to change the game, just give us our own leaderboard so it's fair.
