Or play the game FFS? Yes, it's easy to complain, when there's so much to complain about. I'm not in the mood to argue with the appeasers. I don't think the reset ad id is built into the game. I think that it is part of the ad service, which I don't think FMEA has a lot of control over. I think the game sends the ad server, the server returns an ad, then if the ad server hits a certain limit, it stops serving ads to that id. I think it changes based on demand. The higher the demand for ads at a given time, the shorter the time between resets. If it were built into the game, there would be a repeatable pattern, which isn't what happens. Some days I have played all 190 ads for currency without a reset, some days, like today I had a low of 3 ads before I needed to reset.

As for not being upfront about the final required or recommended PR for Special Events or LTSs, I completely agree with you. I have said in a number of posts that I think that should be included on the splash screen of the event before you have to chose to begin. It basically turns a special event or LTS into a gambling event. You have to gamble that you have enough resources to complete the event, and I do not think that is cool at all.

I would also say that the upgrade tree costs should be shown in game for each car, so that you know what each upgrade cost is without having to unlock it first. Without this wiki and a lot of time and effort, we would be blind to this. Again, it keeps players in the dark about the cost of the game.

I have also said that I think that some of the development issues come from the developers, or at least the executives that make the decisions on what the developers do, not understanding the game or racing. That was blatantly clear when the issued the R$-customization sale on the McLaren P1™ GTR. It is also clear on the way they put together career, bonus, and exclusive series. It ends up feeling like they just don't have a feel for what makes a good race.
