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.

30% faster install doesn't work

roestreyevroestreyev Registered Users 1,443 Posts
Hi, my team won last turf war. We're suppose to have 30% faster install, but it's bugged.

The NOS kit conversion, which takes the most time, and is really what you need to install as fast as you can, doesn't work as fast as it should. If you go to conversion upgrade, it shows as installed. But when you go to upgrade it, the stage 1 (bottle or core) shows "owned" but not installed. If you try to upgrade to stage 2, or just install stage 1, you get "error 29" and your app freezes.

The NOS will eventually install (for real), but much later.


I've also been getting "Error 666" since we won this. I was building Paganis as fast as I could. Since that, I wait until every parts from stage1, then stage 2, is installed, before I continue installing.

So, it actually takes more time to build a car, because we don't know when we can upgrade for real. We have to keep checking if NOS is "really" installed...

    For other than NOS, same problem:


    If I go to upgrade a part, and it's not "really" installed. I will see 2 levels of part installed at the same time.

    Exemple.: I had Stage 1 installed, and Stage 2 was installing. If the part is not "really" installed. I will have Stage 1 and Stage 2 installed at the same time.

    If I try to install pro part at this moment, I think this is where I start having that error 666 and app freeze.

    I need to wait for stage 1 to stop showing "installed" before I try to install Pro parts.

    I just lost 40 gems because of this...

    I was waiting for the timer to get under 30 sec, so I can finish it right away for free. I hit the button. It shows free to finish instantly. So I buy. Didn't notice but my gems were going down!

    :-(

    Can you turn off that bonus? It doesn't work, and I'm pretty sure it made me lose more than 40 gems. I just noticed 40 were gone because I was low. But I hit than button all the time when I build C or D classes cars. I'm pretty sure I got rubbed for more than 40 gems...

    help us please. I've talked to other guys on the team to warn them about it, but they did hit that button without taking note of what was the gem count before and after... I think many on the team did the same thing I did... :-(

    Is that it? I reported this bug 3 weeks ago? Not getting the bonus 30% faster is one thing. Spending gems without knowing is another. This sucks... :-(
