No, it was shortly available on my device, LaFerrari, Ferrari FF and Mclaren 570S are needed. But I had no time to drive it and when I started the game next time it wasn't there anylonger. So, also if you won that car, you cannot play it. I have informed Fabien already about that problem.
@Zeremoniar If those are the cars needed, I have them but I never saw the event they should've unlock. At least we know the problem its on Windows and Android.
Happy new year everyone. I was on holiday, I have a lot of catching up to do. Some of us are still on holiday, but let me me know if you need anything and I will try to help.
Again happy new year to you. I wrote already 2 problems on fb to you. One is the upper mentioned problem with the 570S tag race, the other is wrong AI time for last and penultimate test of Egoista R&D (see my pic in fb messenger). Both are not extremly critical, so take your time. If you need more info, contact me as usual. But as you asked what we need: Advanced techs !!!
@Fabien HAPPY NEW YEAR! I contacted CC about cheaters on TLEs on Windows, but I got this standard answer Take for example the recently ended Mclaren 570S Cup, the last day of that cup there were 90 cheaters in Top 100 so you cant honestly expect us to report 90 players. You should clean the leaderboards of blatant low times and impossible times set with very low ranked cars. If you dont have enough people to remove cheaters from leaderboards I offer you my services, for free, but you can't expect us to report tens of players for each TLE, we want to play not work.
I pulled the trigger on the McLaren 570s but doubt I'll do much upgrade-wise. In case I get ambitious and round out the McLaren collection, I wanted the car. But my rule of thumb recently (after winning very few cars in 2015) is to not purchase a car over $500,000 credits or 1,500 tokens unless it's at least 40 percent off. Had to go against that a few times lately, though.
Apex cups @Fabien Thank you for the V8 engines cups we've been getting. Are we going to get other engine cups in the future like F6 engines, FIV8 engines, V12 engines, i6 engines, etc.?
There are several issues with that. 1) That cup would be terrible. Simple as that. Ain't nobody racing for some i6 engines (kidding, but it wouldn't be the most desirable cup). 2) Knowing the pattern the best car for the cup will be..... Datsun
I hear the Renault Sport RS 01 is going to cost some number of V6 engines. Anyone know how many V6 cards it will take to max pro the RS 01? I just earned the Camaro Z/28 so I'm hesitant to finish pro V6 upgrades if I can get the Renault. Doing multiplayer and mastery to get C upgrades for the Camaro. I only have 1M credits
Wow, that's a lot I only have 2000 tokens because I just started practicing not buying token boxes. I have 20 of the 60 Hybrid engines for the P1 GTR, and I figure I will get some of the 40 hybrid engines I need while saving 12000 more tokens, so that's my current goal. I will definitely buy Trion Nemesis when that is available even if I only have a handful FiV8, there is nothing else to use the engine for. No point in buying HTT with the Trion having much better nitro duration.
TRION NEMESIS has a maxed rank of 1736. That's the highest in the game after the Enzo's 1690 I believe (unless the P1 GTR surpasses it). Shouldn't need a lot of pro cards to get the TRION up to a respectable rank that can compete.
There are in total only 56 i6 engines in the game needed, so a cup where one can win 20-30 makes no real sense for many. Same is for F6, only 84 needed (and many don't have 9FF, so for those only 40 are needed). I have collected already 140 F6, so no interest. Cups shall help players on the most needed engines to give incentive to play and invest boosters and fuel. So fiv8 (284 needed), v12 (204), v8 (224) v6 (148) and hybrid (128) shall be the engines for cups. Especially the first 2 (fiv8 / v12) are a real big issue as they are legendary cards. Those 2 are the only engines I really have a problem at present, esp. from fiv8 I need still 140! My idea for 10 engine cups 5x fiv8 2x v12 1x v6 1x v8 (we had already 2, so no further need, as alternative one could make a low need rare engine cup for v16 (last introduced engine) or maybe i6) 1x hybrid (also hybrid might not be for many interesting, as nearly 50% of the needed cards are only for P1 GTR)
...and then there are people like me, who still need dozens of V8 engines. I understand your point of view, Zeremoniar, but it's the point of view of someone who has won a lot of cards in events. I also wouldn't be surprised if you spent some money on tokens, and thus, additional pro card boxes. As an average player who doesn't buy tokens, I'd be happy with a V8 event a week for the foreseeable future. So I'm grateful for these V8 events — well done, Gameloft! I hope you'll keep it up. Those legendary engines aren't nearly as interesting, as they go into very expensive cars, which also require a ton of other cards. Pro'ing just one of those cars is a matter of years for us regular folks, so it's just not that interesting. But I guess you're right inasmuch as it's in Gameloft's best interest to cater to those who are further along with pro'ing their cars, because there's probably a bigger overlap between those guys (sometimes incorrectly called "pro" racers) and those who spend money on tokens.
@Fabien @Zeremoniar @Running Bird We need engines cups once a month for fiv8, v12, v8, v6 and once every 3 or 4 months cups for the other engine types.
My view is not only based on a lot of achieved cards, but on the probability to get cards and how often they are needed. In the end all players will need fiv8 the most. Anyhow I agree, the very large need of those legendary engine cards of 50-60 for a single TOP S class car is strongly distorting the picture. You are also right with the usability of those cards. I have over 40 fiv8 in inventory but can't use them - no adv. techs (the most needed A8 card ever!) Without S class, the by far most needed engine card is "v8" - 224 times (it's only needed in non S class cars). Second place is v6 with 88 and fiv8 with 20 needed is completly uninteresting below S class. This is what you are speaking about. Due to this I fighted very long for those v8 cups - Fabien can confirm. I'm sure that I had a slight influence on that. As I know that it's still interesting, I also mentioned v8 as needed cup (although it's not longer interesting for me, and you are right, I bought many v8 boxes). My main point was that after 2 v8 cups other engines should be considered. I think it is important to have some balance: Apex with boxes including cards for players with already high pro level and apex with boxes with cards for players with low pro level. Concerning this, the suggestion of Asphalt Str sounds reasonable.
@Fabien For Gods sake clean up the leaderboard on windows Apex cup. First 100 with times of 1:00 or lower, thats one minute zero seconds. The fact that there are 6 Mosler GT3 its proof Gameloft can do a better job.
