I found this board, just a few months after the game started in 2013. And to give credit, I learned a few things here. For instance, it was here that i learned if you failed a goal in a specail event or during a gauntlet, you could restore and try again. I felt extremely stupid I was waiting 3-5 hours for cars to service before trying again. And sometimes maybe only to fail again.

But it wasnt until about 2016 that I joined a race team. And when you do that, after a while they trust you and you get invited into discussion groups. That is where you learn my friend!

I learned more about this game in one month in a discussion group than I did in 3 years on this board. Was making gold hand over fist and NO hacking. In fact, the vast majority of teams, if they find out you are hacking, they will kick you from the team. They do not want to risk getting banned.

Most all the old members here are still around if you know where to find them, they are just not here. Many are still easily making 1000 gold per week. Just got to know the tricks!

Costs too high, rewards too low and no new features in ages (in my opinion, the changes to both OMP and wttt are a step back, they reduced meaningful, lasting participation. OMP is a simple farm event, jump in, gains a tiny amount of GC and ignore for a week. Removing the options that previously existed for more races and way more cars in both features was a horrible mistake. Someone probably pitched the idea that by making it about only, really, one car per feature per week was the only obvious choice that it’d force more players to FU that car. Sure. Except, at such high costs with little reward that most everyone now just hacks for gold. Seriously, if you are on android it’s a 15 second google search for the download.

Gotta keep price reasonable then people will spend. Look at any successful game, from angry birds to Fortnite (yup, mentioned it again). Literally millions of dollars of profit for only selling... vinyls. Can’t wrap your head around it? It’s true. Its F2P and F2W and it’s massive.
