    One month and one day without multiplayer

    It's been one month and one day without multiplayer for me, thanks to the "error code: 9" alert. Don't know when it started for the rest of the people affected.

    The worst is that nobody has said anything about what's the cause, or whether it's going to take one day, one month or one decade; or if it's ever going to be solved.

    I guess it's about time to stop asking and to say goodbye to Gameloft_Ryan, the guys at Customer Suppòrt, and the devs at Gameloft: it's just a game and it's been nice.

    I've had the issue for just about as long. I didn't complained or email support, because it was a soft launch, and I figured it was something that would be fixed at the WW launch. I'm willing to wait for the first update, before giving up. It's a great game, I have tremendous fun playing. I just won't spend money on it, till it's fixed.

    Gameloft Ryan, I'm hoping the update will have some improvements for the touch control players as well. It seems like the touch controls were an after thought and it's really frustrating. Is there any word on this? Thanks and happy holidays.

    I'd imagine the development team is too busy trying the solve the problem to be coming in to forums answering questions.
    It'd actually be the worst if they spent more time here than fixing it.

    But to answer a question or two, its a save profile conflict issue.

    Will it be fixed? Yeah.

    In a day, a month, a decade or ever? Yeah. Probably in the next update. Maybe sooner.

    How long will that take? Well, how long is a piece of string?
    How long does it take to go through hundreds of thousands of lines of code? To integrate changes in to the code? To test the changed lines? To update the changed code on the servers? To approve it internally? To submit it to Apple? For Apple to approve it? To then release it?
    And the process is even more complex than that.

    It'll be fixed. And it'll be fixed as quickly as possible.
    The dev team behind the game is even more anxious than you to get it fixed.
    They have, after all, a lot more time and effort invested in the game than one month and one day (2 years to be precise).
    If you want it done right, a bit of patience wouldn't go astray.

    Few Questions

    Ryan i have few question about the game .. i've try to find in internet but haven't find any answers
    1st - Multiplayer - obviously when i participate in multiplayer i dont race with real ppls and i had 2100 rating , after i reach that rank i stoped play multiplayer and start grinding coins for more cars , upgrade etc. few days after i recieved 20 new challenge and most of them was -8 till -14 and my rating droped to 1950 so my question is
    when my car is involved in an event what determines how it will perform ( without my controll ) by timing on the track i previously played or by upgrade of my car

    2nd- Is there list of cars with all stats ( upgrade to lvl 5 ) .. asking this cause i have audi RS 5 Coupe and when i play multiplayer Audi TT RS coupe catch me in everysingle straight road with amazing speed ( my car have lvl 5 acceleration ) and for car bought with cash vs car with coins that isnt realy fair :( especialy when other car should be lower class

    3th - Please make petition to game masters to consider the multiplayer coin ( participate / reward ) i am 50 lv and my participation in assist race is 1800 (reward 2600 ) and non assist race 5000 ( 7000 coins ) and thats for 1st place .

    Thanks , and sorry about my not realy good english ( hope u understand :D)

    He's talking about accidentally buying a $500 (in-game) mechanic by accident because the touch points on the buttons are pretty vague.

    Obviously $500 represents about 1/2 of a £6.99/$9.99 IAP... so i guess that accident 'cost' about $4-5

    No problem, I'm online throughout the day usually and sometimes on the weekends :)

    I've been told that these problems should be fixed with the next update. The Dev team has been taking the feedback provided to me and through customer service and have been working hard on a fix. Sometimes things like this take time to figure out what the cause is and how to remedy it. Hopefully you'll come back to the game in the future.

    What aspects of touch control? I know that I've seen a few comments on the on-screen steering wheel position and have made a note of that in my community report. Let me know if you are talking about something specific.

    Other than that, we have been adding new features to Asphalt 8 and if things work out with those I could see those specific features coming over to GTR2 possibly.

    1 - You race against other people in MP who have similar ratings. Depending on the people available and what time of the day you are racing you might be going against people who are underneath you and if you don't get 1st you could experience losing points like you did.

    2 - There isn't a list of each car with full upgrades. Like I've mentioned in an earlier post, similarly or slightly less powerful cars are able to compete based on the routes they take in the race track. If you aren't taking the optimized turn, maintaining speed, etc there is a chance a car can pass you and beat you.

    3 - We will constantly monitor the rewards in game to make sure that it stay balanced throughout all levels in the game. I'll be sure to keep an eye on this :)

    Is the level up bug part of the error code 9 issue?
    A bit more background:
    I've leveled up level 62 three times now. Last time I paid attention and noticed something funky. It appears that when the world wide release came out, the amount of Xp required to level up changed from what it was supposed to be to all the xp I had earned during the soft launch. Ie, it appears I will have to earn all my Xp all over again just to finally level up. I must assume the two issues are connected. I've received nothing back from customer service about this, so I figured I'd ask. Here are two screenshots. Pay attention to the large number on the right of the level up bar. This is right before I should have leveled up, and one right after I should have. Thanks

    I believe so, yes.

    You shouldn't be losing points if you aren't participating so I'm not sure I follow you on this. The only way it's possible to lose points is if you were to participate in a race and not finish high enough to gain points or quit the race.

    Feel free to PM me for clarification on either of these things.

    I have some questions about multiplayer.

    1
    From what I understand there is no real-time multiplayer at this time, correct? The only options I have are Challenge and Pro Challenge, which each appear to be a "time shifted multiplayer" sort of thing.

    2
    Also, what is the list of names under that? I can push the X's to make the names go away, but that's about it. Who are these people and what are they for?

    3
    And finally, is there a way to search for a team to join? The only way to join a team that I can see is by asking one of the top 20. This doesn't make sense though, because how did those teams form before they were in the top 20 if there's no search?

    Sorry if these questions are stupid...

    Gameloft Ryan, Thanks for the reply. Something like where ever you place your thumb is where the steering wheel appears. Another very badly needed addition would be a touch accelerator and touch brake option to use with the touch steering. Basically the same option that Real Racing and 2K Drive have. Pretty standard option for a racing sim. Thanks again.

    Gameloft Ryan, here is another request for the same option I am talking about. I have seen several others, this is the first one I found going back a little bit. Thanks

    Not sure what's causing that. It seems to be different than when I first read your post. I'd suggest contacting our customer care team so our Dev team can work on a fix. Not sure why you'd be losing points if you aren't participating in the race. Here is a link: Gameloft Support GTR2

    Ahh, gotcha. Yeah this is something I've talked about before in this thread. We recently added in the movable steering wheel in Asphalt 8, so I'd imagine it's only a matter of time before it shows up in GTR2. As for the accelerator/brake combo, I've made a note of it and have passed it along. We'll have to wait and see what the Dev team wants to add in the upcoming game updates.

    Thanks, not everyone likes tilt controls and the touch controls.
