Everyone bragging about “I’ve never spent a penny on this game I play non stop and I never will” followed by, “Gee, wonder why they had to force ads and make so little that parent EA spanked them” I have made a few IAP's on this before, think within a few months of when I started in early 2015 (four years of my life.. jesus christ !!) - think I spent about £20-25 ish. I know I did one for the 2014 RSR and the Lambo Miura - what WAS I thinking ?!

I'm quite happy to have ads forced if it helps them with some revenue. I'm sure it was stated somewhere that they make pennies / cents per group of ads, so it's almost worthless to them, anyway.

I would have made more purchases if only the real life value of the currency wasn't so absurd. I farm very little, I just don't have the time (seriously do some people run 3 or 4 LM 10 lappers a DAY ? - there's a guy on FB who says he typically does that and levels up every 5 days or summink ?) - So the way to even vaguely try and keep up with the pace of releases, is just to watch ads, BUT I get maybe on average 2 new cars per update and only do LTS, i'm not a full garager and even if I was, I simply wouldn't have enough time or resources to get everything.

I understand the game is in ongoing development - but EA seem to want the cost structure to be that of a console game, i.e. £70 and there's your content and game. That makes the cost of keeping up with each release approximately the same as a console game (IMO!) You said something that I agree at all! As I said in other discussions, some people (like me) live in countries that haven't high wages and it's too expensive to buy GC! Surely if they had lower prices I could buy GC every month (or every update).

But here in Brazil you pay more than USD 100/88 EUR in 1019 GC while the minimum wage is USD 250/EUR 235. And what you buy/update with this GC? The Hennessey Venom GT, which is a car I don't have, is 950 GC! It's too expensive to spend real money.

I think they should look at this matter, because (a lot of) people like me really want to get some cars but unfortunetaly cant' spend so much on it.

(Again, sorry for my poor english)
