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.

    Are they GRAM 57s-pro white ($40,000) wheels ever going to get fixed to look white?

    They still look exactly like the basic 57s-pro's and the white ones are one of my favorite sets of wheels in the game. I have them on quite a few cars and if sucks that it cost $35,000+ more for them to now look exactly like the cheaper ones.

    Please report any issues with 6.1 here. Be sure to include your racer name and any and all pertinent information.

    Known Issues:

    Personal Mechanic Error - Uninstalling an axle from the Personal Mechanic screen will cause an error. Uninstalling from the upgrade screen will work

    511 Error - If you try upgrading through the Personal Mechanic (Alex) too quickly, you may get a 511 error causing a restart

    Stuck In the Garage - If your active car is currently awaiting delivery, you can become stuck in the Personal Mechanic tutorial when starting the game for the first time since updating. Currently there is no easy workaround except waiting for your delivery to complete.

    Investigating

    Unable to Launch - Seeing reports of players tapping launch but nothing happens.

    Are you going to replace cars lost to launch button not working or is that another " unsupported " portion of the game. lmao.

    Launch button problem....
    Terrible lag when shifting and launching.

    It has been more than a month since 6.0 got released and we still have the same issues bad lag, choppy FPs, and bad wheels colors. Now the launch button is not working properly and GLU is so stubborn to keep adding features while they should be fixing the bloody game.

    Game was better with 5.3 and as updates get released the interest for this game dies more and more.

    Hey everyone, We're still trying having issues trying to reproduce the launch button issue.

    Does this happen with any car you use?

    For those who play on multiple devices, does it happen on each device?

    Does it happen in any race mode?

    Multiplayer?
    Tournament?
    Quick Match?
    Driver's Challenge?
    Test Track/Drive?

    Ryyst, yes - happens with any / every car, in every race mode. With mine, the launch button functionality is intermittent. Sometimes it works as it should, other times I have to tap it several times to get it to trigger. I've been attempting to run most of the morning, and the launch button malfunction happens 1 out of every 3 races.

    I can't answer about the multiple devices, as I only run the game on my IPhone currently.

  • dwdtuningdwdtuning Registered Users 12,932 Posts
    Are they replacing cars cause of failed launch button. Or is it somehow are fault for pinking? Should no one pinks anymore for the shear fact that your product is faulty?

    Can you intentionally foul? Basically do you experience the same thing if you foul, do you also have to press the launch button a few times before you register the foul?

    Just ran several test races in a 1621 rated 2015 Ford Mustang GT - against both bots, and other racers. Intentionally fouling works without issue. The moment I touch the launch button, it fouls.

    Ran on 3 devices including bluestacks on my computer and it happens on all of them. I find it hard to believe your having a hard time reproducing the launch problem as I, as well as most others, have no problem at all recreating it. It happens once every 3 to 4 races. Grab an iOS or android device and join any lobby in any race mode, you'll have no problem recreating it.

    @C y r u s, @dwdtuning - Can you try, when launching, tapping the top of the launch button, or even just slightly above the launch button, and post the results?
  • dwdtuningdwdtuning Registered Users 12,932 Posts
    @Roush Sport i pmed you answer to that last night. When it does fire, I have to hit bottom left of launch button. Whole button nothing, top left nothing, top right nothing, bottom right nothing. I can foul tho if I want. Still only works bottom left of launch button for that also.

    @dwdtuning Thank you - just wanted to make sure it's still the same today. My issue is just the opposite. If I tap the middle or bottom of the button, nothing. If I tap the top, or slightly above the button, it triggers as it should. Just trying to help the team gather as much info as possible on the issue.

    Anything I post here is open to all. Just didn't need to flood the page with replies asking the same question.Plus Roush is a MOD and tends to be a bit more rational when answering and less... I don't know, abusive?

    And yet its the truth. Myself and the QA staff on multiple devices played the game, never had any of us run into this issue. I have also talked to many other players who also have never run into this issue. While vocally it would appear to be rampant, we also haven't had many tickets coming in regarding this issue.

    So, I'm here trying to gather more information on why this is happening to some players and not at all to others.
