I am. Both MPTLEs as well as regular MPs are unplayable. The rooms just won't fill with other players. Gameloft forums glitch havily too.
It's even worse than that. I waited to see for a while, but now I have to speak up. Not just in MP, on iOS I am getting it in the MP TLEs as well. For over two weeks now. It is back hard and Gameloft's system is not catching it. The cheaters must have found a huge workaround. I am seeing speed hack whether I am racing with or without boosts. Last night, I was in the MP B class cup and every race I got selected for, my Max Pro Zagato was outclassed by 4-6 cars minimum, all with double or triple boosts AND speed hack!!!!!! It has been brutal and I have been staying up late at night just to compensate for my losses and try to place on the bottom tier. There is no shot that I am making any progress this week in cups because of this. In regular MP, my fastest/top end cars barely make a place to continue against speed hackers. This needs to be fixed immediately!!!! Fabien what are you hearing on your end?
Had the same problem with MP TLEs today on iOS as well. The 12-driver room, after about 8 minutes, had just one player, moi. Fun window on A8 closing even more. I didn't play last week and I might take another week off.
I was fine playing the Rookie B-Class MPE at home last night, but this morning, I was able to enter only two races before I got stuck waiting for players. However, when I tried again at work with a different IP address, I had no problems (except for too many races where everyone else is double/triple-boosted). I'll see if I have trouble at home later, in which case I'll try going through a VPN. I wonder if this is another failed attempt at dealing with suspected cheaters? (Still haven't gotten a reply from Customer Care about losing Mid-Tech cards after I was wrongly placed in the BMW M3 MPE cheaterboard.) Oh -- and after many months, the free fuel refill is back for me. (Still no free tokens, though.)
I have one free video (for three tokens) and a free refill offer as of this afternoon (East Coast US).
Well the G-D hackers are back...respawning,unlimited nitro,flying..mp,mpe cup bla bla...killing points in mp...very frustrating. Right behind one with my max/pro zagato double boosted..he missed every nitro except one I think he hit by accident as he was all over the place and even wrecked right in front of me...no matter just popped right back up couldn't gain at all on him so effing frustrating...used the rest of boosters in mp same deal. Hope they get this fixed right now...at least by the time I cool down..lol...it is like some competing racing platform developer makes these hacks to kill the game..and maybe I'm just used to not seeing them very often anymore on iOS and forgotten how pointless this game becomes with rampant cheating.������ (Edit: just took a few more runs And didn't see any hackers ...maybe GL fixed it or all the hackers just swarm for a limited time idk but I hope it stays fixed and I can start to make up the points I lost because there's nothing else you can do but move forward or quit playing...)
I think if history is correct, this is about the time when Gameloft starts leaking information for sequels, if not then next year.
I would rather they release Asphalt Nitro for iOS before making a sequel! Fabien, is that game ever going to come to iOS? T^T
The MP TLE that ends today has been working much better. I've had plenty of very bad runs in it to be sure, but found myself with a little satisfaction in a couple races going from 12th to first. Doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, it feels great (actually similar to real racing). And ditto: had two free tank refills with video yesterday and two three-token videos.
I'm sitting at about 2800 points, I've hardly signed in the past couple days. Getting about 10 points if in dead last and over a 100 for first in 12/12 races. I have a 1707 Lykan now. It goes 1.28 or lower no boosts in Tokyo seaon 9 kinda cool. Will probably kill no-pro Plethore and Enzo for some time (until they're 3/3/3/3 or so). My Aventador is at 5/4/4/5 1744 but I need 6 V12s and haven't seen one in a month.
Anyone know what is going on with the Veneno yet? I am maxing some of the less important cars so I don't go insane from doing the same thing over and over and I don't have much left on this one, but started to hold off because if I max it I won't get the 5 stars from the season 9 race due to the Aventador error.
I just finished making a complaint to CC because in a mp race at dragon tree (which I was leading by some distance) just disqualified every racer about halfway through the first lap and hit me for 19 points! WTF?...and in the closing minutes of the mp cup right before my mp disaster I saw a bunch of blinking going on...sigh!#
F12's anyone? F12 cup yeah! And all you need to be competitive is a pro'd Testarossa! Now if I can only get my hands on some F12's to pro my Testarossa ... hmmm. Maybe they will bring out an F12 cup. # #
Well, we still haven't heard anything about the iOS update that was supposed to be released for the bug fixes. Just hold off for now. By the way, anyone else think that the F12 Cup is unfair? There are quite a number of Pro'd Testarossa on the Cup. Care to tell me why do these ***holes need to be in Top 100 when they don't need the F12 Engines at all? I'm dropping out of Top 100, and soon out of Top 150. It's hard to improve when the freaking Event is only ONE day and costs FOUR fuels. Argh, and I would love to have 12 F12 Engine.
Why F12 When I check this page http://asphalt.wikia.com/wiki/Vehicles_of_Asphalt_8 the Ferrari Testarossa is the only car which is using F12 engines. Is this car worth buying and upgrading (Multiplayer)? And which cars are best for multiplayer without using any boosters. I'm playing on Fire TV and there you have often to wait hours until you find enough players for multiplayer. So nobody is using booster in multiplayer. So I drive mostly my DeZir (0,0,2,0) because it's more easy to find players at that level. But often you drive against noobs which becomes boring after a while. Maybe should I try Felino (1500) or Survolt (1386)? And I have a not upgraded Biome. Maybe only upgrade Top Speed and Nitro? Or should I get the P4?
Definitely not the dezir. That car runs on tuning kits and nitro starters 100% of the time, no butts about it If you can't afford a tuning kit, get a 370Z, it's cheaper than a survolt to max and will get you a season 9 The 370z could afford you a better money making car, I would just get a mclaren p1 which is 800k... There might be a cheaper option The ~200k 370Z gets a 1.30 long race for 9,000 (using the 100 token booster). You'll be making 30 races an hour with loading screens, making 270k in an hour of nonstop farming... The car would pay for itself quickly. . 135k is a lot even for a beginner who just purchased and maxed out a 370z and can't afford 100 token boosters yet. But it will get you a C class car maxed even quicker-if you get the D car done first. Btw don't max the survolt, max a srt8 challenger or exige s The reason you buy the best of the Class is because the upgrade cost is the same for a lot of cars (but not all) so do your research on the wiki before purchasing a car. Then you can use that car in the events (hopefully)
You probably have understood me wrong. I have about 20 cars for season 9 and some of them are proed. Some cars have underrated ranks like the DeZir. And so I'm asking which one of these are best for Multiplayer without boosters. As I already wrote nobody is using boosters at FireTV (Asphalt 8 Kindle Edition) because you often have to wait hours till you find enough players for multiplayer. And for example I tried my maxed proed Camaro just to get owned by Biome.
Thanks Sam. I'll hold off on veneno. Yeah the F12 cup I am mixed about. I worked hard on it last night and finished in position 408 which I was thrilled about. I thought I would have enough of a buffer but as of 8 hours before the end of the cup I am now at position 1,592 I only have a max countach and a max testarossa 1/1/1/1 pro. Apparently that's not going to be good enough. At least I am doing good in the M1 cup (high 300s). I started to work on the biome to max it. I also have enough to pro it. Will do it over time, don't want to blow the cash all at once, only have about a million in reserve. Is it worth it?
Also I am still encountering speed hack, just less than the other night. The one thing that still pisses me off in MP is getting brake checked. If I perfect nitro at the start, even with no boosts, there should be no reason that I don't plow through the a$$h0le that sits with his brakes on. It's unprofessional and a waste of my fuel, boosts, time, etc. and frankly I'm tired of it. Fabien, can you have the dev team code the server to disable braking for all cars the first 10/15/20 seconds of an MP race to prevent this? I offer three different time options because it should be adjusted based on the track for how far away the first turn that requires a brake or drift is. Basically the idea is just to get off the line without being stopped dead in your tracks. If someone is boosted and wrecks you from behind that's different - but driving into a car that isn't being moved intentionally just blows.
