Over the course of the last five years, Racing Rivals has grown into one of the most hardcore racing games in the world. This loyal community has spent countless hours competing in millions of races in “winner take all” fashion – all in the name of Turf Wars and pink slips.

However, all good things must come to an end… After spending time evaluating Rivals and its future – we’ve decided that it’s time to move on. Simply put, the revenue generated from Racing Rivals unfortunately no longer covers the cost of operations. This was not an easy decision to make.

On March 31st, 2019 – Rivals will be racing off into the sunset, and will be permanently shut down. Current players have until this date to utilize any accumulated virtual currency. We’ll be offering some massive reductions in the cost of crates, installs and repairs in addition to a reduction on timers as you race your way into the history books. Effective immediately, no new in-app purchases will be permitted.

In closing, a resounding and sincere THANK YOU to our extremely driven fans for your loyalty and dedication over the years – we hope you’ve enjoyed playing Racing Rivals as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.

Folks who are complaining about the game...

K again for the hundredth time to those of you who havent gotten it yet. Do you want them to fix the problems or be on here answering your questions about stuff they already know are going on. Me personally I rather not have any of them answer cause if thats the case I know they are working to fix the problems in the game and make it better!!!! We all know your frustration and it is completely understandable but think about it say you have 50 guys but 10 of them are working on the forums 20 of them are working on all the complaints coming in by tickets. Then you have about 20 guys left over to try to actually fix all the 50+ problems that are in the game and rewriting codes testing it making sure they are working seeing if it can be a hot fix or not pushing it through to the game then making sure that that fix actually works the way its suppose to work then finally starting on the next code on the list. I mean I dont know about you guys but 50 people working on a problem sounds like it would be fixed a lot faster than 20 thats just my 2 cents on the subject. Also if you are one of the people pinking at this time, with all due respect, you are foolish! Why would you pink knowing that the game has been freezing and hasnt been running at its fullest. Not trying to make anyone mad but you need to use a little common sense in these situations haha

    I was going to post a long essay about forums expectations... but I'm gonna hold off. I'll just say most of the Admins here are actually developers who... you know... need to work on the game. The rest of us are Customer Service Reps who are the ones answering all the emails sent in. So I wouldn't expect your individual issues to be addressed here. We may help here and there, but for the most part you will need to send in a ticket/email.

    Feel free to discuss all you want on the forums, and please keep it civil, name calling and colorful metaphors don't help anyone.. also if you wish to discuss an issue you are experiencing, see if there are already threads about the same issue. Add your experience to that thread. Its easier for us to see whats going on when certain issues are concentrated in a few threads then trying to stitch together whats going on from 50 different threads.

    In regards to your last sentence or two.
    I completely agree.
    You're not going to go outside in the freezing cold without a sweater.
    You're not going to drive a car you know will break down on you lol.
    So why pinks, knowing the risks?

    k im done.

    It's your own risk pinking I personally have been pinking heaps, nothing wrong with whenctour pinking, just when the game finishes it crashes, b u t!! When I restart the cars is there or gone so there is really nothing wrong and I don't understand how people pinking are not getting there winning cars unless well, they didn't win lol!!! Game works fine that way it ONLY crashes get over it you risk you loose heck I'm down 30-40 cars and about 10 mill since it was updated but guess what, I took the risk to pink and raise money so it's my fault not the games. I don't want any of it back!! Rant over!!
