    Yeah I won't be putting any money into the game because you won't get it back.

    I am enjoying this game on my iPhone. Multiplayer is lag-free and also very rewarding. There are different tiers of car that you can either grind to win one at random, or just buy the in-game premium currency to roll one at the special machines. The epic cars have some special attributes, but gameplay still seems fair. Rewards come often and can be earned from watching ads, completing daily missions or just buy being good in the game. There are no mandatory video ads or ad bars. Instant download.

    If you read the pre launch thread you'd see they were both in beta at the same time.

    Can we get a comprehensive list of vehicle stats and upgrade stats? I'd like to be able to compare speed and stuff, as well as know what is changing when a car upgrades

    Hi everyone, I’m Phil, developer of Crash Club with my crew at Prettygreat. Above all else in life, I value truth.

    Crash of Cars was in development before Crash Club was, and they ripped off nothing. We didn’t know that when we created Crash Club, and came up with the idea independently (we tried many, many online prototypes before settling on cars). We became aware of Notdoppler’s game after we had already committed to Crash Club. It's simply a coincidence that a similar concept was worked on at the same time. These aren't the first car battle games to come out, and they certainly won't be the last.

    Developers are free create any game they want, and Crash of Cars released first. Props to Notdoppler for it, they are a great group of people. That being said, the two games are vastly different in how they play, even though the concept on the surface is somewhat similar. Players can check them out and decide which they prefer, or enjoy both for their unique aspects.

    I know when we release Crash Club, some reviews and players may be calling us a Crash of Cars ripoff. As if a team could create a massively multiplayer online car battle game in a matter of weeks :) We just have to accept that and continue making the best game we possibly can.

    So Cevan, while I appreciate your support and hope you enjoy Crash Club when it comes out, development and release of games is never as simple as it seems!

    Happy crashing!

    Congrats to the dev for making a fun smash 'em up racing game that harkens back to the glory days of micromachines and mario kart.

    I'd also like to thank them for making a real multiplayer game for ios, Im sure it couldnt have been easy as so very few devs actually succeed at doing just that. For far too long ios games have promised pvp and multiplayer only to find we are fighting bots with our friends names on them. Im sure this is the real deal though, the occasional hiccups and rubberbanding feels like a real live multiplayer game, warts and all.

    I think there are some cars that are superior to others, but not by so much that the game is unenjoyable if you dont have them. The car dispensor is also quite generous, frequently dropping rare and epic cars.

    I'm seriously addicted to this game. Love Demolition Derby games! :D

    I love the graphics of the game as others have said in the forum. Pretty simple cell shaded graphics bring out a slightly cartoonish feel, and even the sound fx is made to sound cartoonish too. I love that!


    The carnage in the game is so fun. The insane amount of stuff going brought out by the cartoonish sound fx gives a great feel. Picking people off or ridding of those pesky stalkers who come after my crowns is so much fun! :D


    I think the spawning of capsules is totally justifiable, I get a lot of rares, some epics and even the occasional legendaries. It does feel like some of the epics and legendaries are slightly underpowered, especially those that enhance weaponry, since they are bulky and pretty slow, thus being prone to other cars wrecking them.


    I seem to always get killed by flamethrowers. Seems like there's no way to escape them? I use the Street Drifter for its quick turning/drifting speeds, resulting in high manuveurability, but seems a bit slow.


    I think it might be better if you can choose the map you want to play on. Also, can you please remove the static ad that sometimes appear after you click the Play button at Game Over? It's frustrating when you want to quickly start another game and click on that ad. Also, I feel like initially, the game is a pain because being not good at the game, you can't get many coins per game and thus you'll end up grinding coins by watching ads instead of really playing the game. Also, aren't the skins a bit expensive, especially for those that need gems?


    Bugs wise, sometimes when I enter the game, I end up in some far far away place on the map and die immediately. Happened to me for every single map so far.

    I dont find that the game is "Pay to win" rather i find with the latest updates it is balanced...i do have wonderful suggestions for the game as this is now my favourite game of the year..

    suggestions like:
    1. Showing player's Prestige level in-game
    2. instead of a "save battery mode" add different video game quality..like fine,high,medium and low
    3. and a whole bunch of new vehicles with balanced upgrades..

    i think this game should have a proper forum on which players can comment on game improvements and suggestions..


    thank you

    Hello from a huge fan of the game.

    I saw that you added some new things, suggested by users, so I decided to register here and add my ideas.

    1) Since I'm more like offline player, I would love to have pause menu. The truth is that the game pauses if I lock my screen, but pause menu in offline mode would be great.

    2) It would be nice if we could get any points (crowns) for kills (destroying cars) like we get when using rail gun. Since I'm crashig a lot and than escaping that means I don't have time to pick up all those crown. I mean something like 1 crown added for each kill would be fine.

    3) Not only for most picked up crowns I think there should be leaderboards for "the longest time in one game" or for "the most destroyed cars in one round/in game generally" or something like that.

    4) I think amount of crowns earned from watching videos should be smaller. Maybe it would be better if you add better scoring at the end of the game. Amount of given crowns could be calculated from something like: picked up crowns + distance driven (or time of game) + cars destroyed. Maybe not sum of all those things, because it would be too much, but I think you guys will find better solution.

    I hope you like my ideas and that those ideas will be used in one of future updates.

    Best wishes to the team!

    I absolutely love Crash of Cars and play it almost daily. However, I have some comments/requests as well:

    1) The Teleport really feels like it needs a buff. Currently, you can still be attacked/hit while in the "teleport vanishing" mode after activating it--you can't move or do anything and are technically invisible, but other players can still hurt you. And this is true on the other end, as well. I've successfully teleported into someone a number of times, yet they get ramming damage on me while I'm coming out of my teleport--and this regularly knocks me far away from where I teleported, often into a bomb or body of water. It makes teleporting way more dangerous than beneficial almost every time.

    2) I'd like an option to "uncheck" certain cars from the random rotation. I like playing with random cars for variation, but there are a few cars I simply never want to use--like the mini-van. (And yet the random rotation seems to pick these cars more than any other...) It'd also be nice to have a random paint rotation.

    3) There are a lot of viable cars and strategies, but small/nimble cars are still vastly superior to almost everything else. I think part of the problem is that a tiny fast car can catch up to and ram into you without any threat of you hitting them back, because by the time you turn around to ram back into it, it's already circled around you. Reversing into someone should have the same damage potential as hitting them from the front: this way, if a tiny car is ramming into you repeatedly from behind, you actually have a way to retaliate.

    4) A killcam after dying would be nice. There are times where I honestly don't know what happened because I'll have nearly full health, someone will tap me, and I'll be dead. It might be lag in those instances, but seeing what the game saw in those final moments would alleviate some frustration/confusion. It could just be another short GIF like the highlight video available at the end.

    5) I'd love to see different game modes, even if the changes are slight and temporary (sort of like a 'featured' mode each week). Team mode where you're working together with some players against others, King of the Hill mode where the leader earns bonus crowns or coins, all-one-item mode where everyone only gets freeze cannons or trebuchets, etc.

    6) The destructible terrain on the new Jungle map is great. It's nice to know that even if you don't have an item on hand, you might still be able to escape someone via the right route, and it forces you to pay even closer attention to your surroundings. Excited to see other map-specific items in future updates.

    7) One of my favorite little touches is the music change when driving the Ice Cream truck. No comments/suggestions, just something I like. :)

    I'd also make the Trebuchet a one-hit kill. As it is, it's by far the most useless weapon of the game, landing incredibly rarely, and only taking off a small chunk of health when it does.

    Man, it could be I've just been lucky with the draws, but I think this game is really liberal giving out cars (at least compared to that other car-crashing game). I've got armored-up versions of probably the two best cars, the Racecar (try spelling racecar backwards) and the tank. I love vacillating between the two of them for different play-styles. The F1 racer, while you have to be careful about accidentally running head-on into any nasty business, is almost always in the lead when there's someone who can play it at the helm, and the tank stays in there for so long that you can consistently guarantee that you'll get quite a haul of coins.

    Great game!

    Hi Everyone,

    Thanks for taking the time to continue to provide feedback :). We've definitely been keeping our ear open to listen to our users who have given us some great suggestions for features, as well as areas of the game that we need to balance. Sorry for not being so active here in responding, as we've been working non-stop to bring everyone more content, but we're definitely listening.

    There's a lot of great suggestions in the last few posts. We're actively working on improvements to the game and will work our best to take the feedback on board.

    I also quickly just wanted to re-iterate some of Phil's comments from Prettygreat. Both games were developed independently, and now that they are both out worldwide, I hope everyone can appreciate each game for what they bring to the table - in our opinion, two different experiences, albeit with similar initial concepts. :)

    Our next update is just a few weeks away now, we're keen to hear what maps you have enjoyed the most so far :)

    P.S. Just for fun - these are some of the cool shots that players have sent us. Has anyone managed to save any epic moments from their gameplay?

    I'm so happy to play this! And yes I also love Crash Club. But moreover I love the integrity you (& your team) as well and Phil (& his team) shared with us. Hopefully people will read the beginning before saying something out of line. Keep up the great work. I know I spent a pretty penny on Earn To Die 2 and it was worth every penny spent!

    Thanks for the new update @notdoppler ! :)

    Love the new water park, bye bye flamethrowers! Homing missiles also get difficult here due to the pipes. But the water sprinkers take up too much CPU, everything's lagging on my poor Samsung phone...any way to optimize this?


    Agreed with the teleport buffing. I hope its better now! (Saw the update notes, just not sure how much better is it)

    EDIT: Can we use gems to activate the coin doubler instead? It shouldn't make much of a difference compared to spending real money. I got too many duplicates before as have too many gems now. Kind of need a way to spend them.

    Any hints how to unlock the 2 hidden cars? Do something in-game? Click some strange place in the menus? Any hints?! :D


    Hope the prize machine is a little more fair now. It keeps giving me fully upgraded cars last time! :(


    Thought it would share a bit of my experience over the months with Clash of Cars too!

    This is sure a cannon mess :D

    Don't play with fire, kids. :D Loved to do the fire tornado when I was somewhere a month into the game where my favourite car back then was the Street Drifter, due to its low grip.
