I don't know how long ago i started playing but i guess its about 4 or 5 months ago. I have 107 cars and currently 1500GC, but never really let it go below 1000, and cash is at about 30 million. With the rate of recent updates and events that require constant input of hefty amounts of gold I've accepted that i'm never going to get 100% cars, let alone 100% completion....... After the Lotus Light Rider challenge i decided to take a few days off and experience at least a little bit of this summer, so haven't been farming the 10 lappers for about 10 days and didn't bother with the gaunlet, even though they are easy and pretty much guaranteed with no gold upgrades. I'm slowly progressing through Legends and currently about to unlock McLaren Generations, and already have the P1 GTR.... but as countless people have said on here, it's fine for people who started playing a couple of years ago to keep up with the updates but for newcomers who want to benefit from winning the cars it just feels like you're treading water in order to do so.. I've played 702 hours and am level 157, and despite it seeming like a waste.... i'm seriously considering calling it a day and throwing in the towel.. I wonder if FM know how many dedicated players they are losing due to the situation with gold.... I guess they must or have to know but dont care as they are making enough revenue from ads and people who make IAPs... At the end of the day they are a business and their primary objective is to make money, although the developers themselves are in it for the passion of their jobs...

Getting to the stage in the game where racing dollars are no object as i said i have about 30 million, but GC is an absolute must, It would just be so appreciated if FM/EA put in place a currecy converter to change cash into gold.... even at an elevated rate of exchange it would be fantastic as the racing dollars are sat there doing absolutely nothing, so even a little gold in exchange would be better then none....

I guess i'll do the upcoming Jaguar challenges and see how i feel after that... (sigh)!!!!!!!
