the crew The Crew {DT} - Ivory Tower & Ubisoft Reflections do a Racer where you go Cruisin' USA!

I've 24 Fullstock cars in my collection out of the 42ish in the game, and have like 1.6 million Bucks in store. (I can't be bothered to buy the rest :lol:)

[RobikV3]

Im buying cars just to check out customisation and then almost never drive them lol

I do exactly the same. First I bought all supercars only to check out their engines :D Already have all the cars, now I'm buying the stickers - getting tired of switching between HQ and tuner every time I want to choose one. But with 160k every three hours it's not that big of an achievement really. But I still can't force myself to grinding the 50 lvl parts, way to boring for me :P

[RobikV3]

Grinding? it takes 20 mins per car just do jump skills theyre easiest and quickest

[Andreas¹]

I didn't get my second car until today, but :D

[RobikV3]

Charger is nice i fell in love with it too lately especially Dirt spec for some reason is just awesome :D

[Guest .:TestDriver:.]

The game is very nice, nice graphics , realistic sound effects (for example TDU2 have no differential sound while TDU1 have it!) but the game play and interface really disappointed me, I thought it'd be a game same as The Horizon 2 or something, The crew is a good game and I don't hate it but it could be way better (in my opinion,though) .

[Ryzza5]

I don't think I've played The Crew in a month :hmmm:

[RobikV3]

Did anybody have car upgraded to max thats 1299?? Im wondering how to do that i have cars with all platinum parts and its 1166, and even when skill challenge says that platinum will give -2 +16 i get that -2 every time lol.

 

Im wondering because yesterday i came across guy in Gallardo fully tuned and that thing was so fast i couldnt catch him in Ruf CTR 3 on platinum parts

That's what I was talking about - grinding. Every time you win a platinum medal you have a chance to get part from lvl 40 to 50. If you have all the parts at lvl 50 your car will be lvl 1299. And a chance to get 50 lvl part is apparently 4% from what I've read. So you have to do over and over skills for each part until you get that 50 lvl part. Also make sure to get perks on the acceleration, top speed, braking and grip as they increase car lvl as well. I hate grinding so I do all skills platinum instead of repeating the same ones. I did whole midwest and finishing east coast. And you know how much cars I have on 1299? None. The highest I have is 1280 - this pretty much proves the 4% chance

could've been*

nothing will change about the gameplay I can guarantee that.

This game is built upon a ridiculous physics engine, the best chance is to hope for the bugs to disappear in the future. This being ubisoft they'll probably be asking money for that too though.

I've probably launched this game 4-5 times in total hoping that if I keep progressing it'll get better. Leveling up a car actually makes everything worse. I sort of expected this game to be a huge disappointment after the beta if I'm honest so I'm not entirely surprised. As I've said before they should've just made the map and then gave it to another studio.

And yeah i sometimes wonder what have they been doing in all those years developing the game its just as unpolished as TDU2 is sad but true :(

[Andreas¹]

Can't you buy the parts at the tuner after you've won them once?

[nicram7666]

After you win them, yes. But you have to win them for each spec, and it takes a whole day of grindig just to max out one spec. I thought that I could do it without grinding, but after getting platinum on almost a half of skills (and repeating many of them for several times) and still not having 1299, I'm not so optimistic.

[hassan1995]

For the higher spec cars (Street perf circuit) do jump skills and grind those.

Andy once you've unlocked a part for one spec like let's say a level 50 exhaust for perf every other perf car you buy you can install that part onto the car ut it's bloody expensive.

[RobikV3]

yeah that i know so its a lottery with those parts pretty much thanks for info i dont think ill be grinding that

[hassan1995]

I've got 1299 for perf and circuit and high 1200 for the rest I use perf and circuit the most so it was the ideal choice

[Ryzza5]

You've also got way too much time on your hands :p

[Andreas¹]

Has there been a date set for photomode? :hmmm:

[hassan1995]

That was the only game I played for a while haha ry, I have no time... :/

Nope Andy
