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.

    After this update my account gets kicked off after a race. Is this something that is being addressed? I was unable to race in this past turf due to this issue

    Game crashing non stop in the middle of races on Galaxy S7, have reinstalled the game multiple times and no improvement.

    And also why do we get notification such as friends online or parts installed during races, this is very annoying specially when the lights are counting down

    You can turn those off in the racer settings if they are too burdensome.

    We could shut off all notifications completely, but that's not his point.

    There should be no notifications during a race period. 5.3 behaved properly and Glu hasn't bothered to fix this on any ver 6 updates

    Lag is very bad. Game crashes, tuning lags. People will end up quitting due to this.
  • adeechiadeechi Registered Users 7,246 Posts
    Chat and nos issues still persist.
    Glad the game was made split-screen compatible on android 7. Really makes stuff like tuning and dealing easier

    I'm having issues on a daily basis after I claim the performance crates. After the second vid ends I will be redirected automatically to the crate store and the game hangs up. I will need to restart game and access turf crates from the map rather than the side link in my garage. This is happening on a daily basis. I reinstalled game over and over but problem persists.

    I've seen on android that the game is requesting an update to google play services. Once you update that, from my experience, the game works as it should.

    I understand his point, and the point that you are making. The days of 5.3 are gone. They included the option to turn off notifications...if you chose not to exercise that option, that's fine...but don't get upset when a notification comes through while you are racing. Different folks play the game in different ways, so the options are there with the intention that the player can customize their experience to their liking. Personally I shut everything off. If there was a way to keep text messages and phone calls from occurring while playing, I'd do that as well.....unfortunately, there isn't on my phone.

    @Roush Sport try WiFi only turn data off for no text and call, unless you have WiFi calling on

    I use Wifi calling, unfortunately, and I have to be available 24/7 for my job. So, there is no "shutting off" of communications in that regard.

    I'm not that important :p @Roush Sport

    Have you updated Google Play services? If not, try that...then try relaunching the game. The short time that I had that issue, updating Google Play solved it.

    @Anonymous I'd suggest looking around the forum a bit, as I posted this in other threads as well. That, and us "mods" don't always know what's going on. We're no different from you - normal players of the game. We don't have any insider information more than anyone else.

    As I said - try updating, and see if you still have the issue.

    @Anonymous Honestly bud if you updated the google play service, rebooted, relaunched and it's still not working, I'm not sure. Are you getting any sort of error message? Is the game freezing while loading? What is the exact problem? I need a bit more than "my game just doesn't work".
  • AnonymousAnonymous Registered Users 3,837 Posts
    @Roush Sport yes it freezes on loading screen

    @Anonymous Try again. If you've got your account synced, completely uninstall and reinstall the game (don't go into settings and just clear data). Then try launching again and see / advise what happens.

    This! Omg I even asked customer care about it.. they told me to try the obvious things that I thought about way before I contacted them. Telling me basic stuff like I'm retarded. They have no clue how to help and just tell you they're sorry for the inconvenience.. been like this for 3 days and no one on forums seem to care
  • AnonymousAnonymous Registered Users 3,837 Posts
    @JamesBond007 I agree , I have 3 devices and all are sticking and not loading
