Forums Home› Racing Rivals› Talk About Racing Rivals
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.

    Alright I'm going to try to be calm however I am extremely upset with Direction the game has went.
    I am getting load errors everytime I go to a new section...garage to map..load errors anywhere back to garage lode errors..

    I have lag in the menus and during racing.the menus I can ignore but trying to launch and hold the revs on green I use multiple short taps and it seems to cause a choppy sorta lag that persist thru to the 2-3 shift at that point the game catches up to itself .

    when you challange someone and they decide to raise bet to pinks on my phone it did not tell me that tid bit of info causing me to loose my cyclone..no happy...I usually don't pink 99.999% of the time unless it's a trade

    and new glitch that seems to be in turf...at start of race everything loads then screen says waiting for other player it sits for 60-90 seconds then loads that I lost they won with 0.00 time listed...

    thanks

    These graphics are different not better (my option). Much of your push back you guys are getting may be because we preferred your previous style of graphics. (I prefer the previous style of graphics)

    I have iPhone 6 and runs pretty good compared to some of my friends, however no where near what it ran at before. Feel like im blinking fast when it in fact just the normal speed game running at.

    Matt paint and flake looks horrible... Nicest thing I can say about it.

    Please let me know if you guys plan changing our concerns ?

    Think you getting much of the same feedback with each reply. (P.S dont fix what is not broken)

    My best advice is to take the graphics back to normal but keep the theme an back grounds an just work on the lag honestly that would fix the paint an pixel distortion an give u more time on the lag because I've had this game since the first launch date an all the graphics were good this update really did destroy the game literally it had a lag before but rarely y'all were on a good track but take the graphics back to what they were before this boom down with paint an distortion problems keep the theams and back grounds this update had then u can put all the focus in on the lag thats what I would do so you won't get any bad feed back on visual issues an just lag issues

    We are also looking into doing something for you all in that regard. I'm not giving any details away on that though.

    Could you implement a graphics option? like the old graphics and the new graphics? that would be great. Because every pic ive seen of how these graphics will look doesn't satisfy me. I hate this csr look. I like the old racing rivals much better than this.

    That is one of the options we're exploring.

    It has, this is something we're going to look at replacing but it's lower on the list at the moment. We're not going to keep it as it is.

    @ [RR] DownShift

    Thank for the acknowledgment. One last thing, feel the color scheme is bit mono tone. Notifications not clear. i.e pinks, cash even messages

    I also find is hard to see which cars and being repaired and have parts installing. Those type of things are not very clears, everything is just blue lol.
