With silver crates going away, we had to change up the turf war prize structure too. Again the prizes didn't have any variance in the ranks. The old system was awarding over 1,000 teams (that's 20,000 players) the exact same prize. Players were stopping at a rank because there was nothing better to go for and the next prize pool was out of reach.
We learned a lot from changing up Showdown as to what's worth racing and competing for. Players should be rewarded for their efforts and have a reason to compete! So we combined the hottest parts of Showdown with the Turf Cars we all love in order to spice up Turf Wars for the sickest competition on four wheels.
The new prize structure starts next turf, which is Turf War Los Angeles on 8/25/2017.

Not so nice for the bottom ones.
I'm not understanding something here.
I was under the impression that the REMOVAL of silver crates would be compensated by the equivalent in other goodies. There is a COLOSSAL CONTRADICTION here...
Top 1 team has 1 x silver crate removed but is given the following ::-
+50 gems
+400k
+ 75 boosts
+ 3 gold crates
+ 3 bronze crates
+ 3 turf crates
Top2500 team has the same silver crate removed but is given the following ::-
+10gems
- 140k
So not only top teams are getting the ultimate prize (rightly so) but they are also getting an ultimate package. !!!
Those newbies which try hard, or other racers (like me) who dont give a shiit about gems but want rrc are given shiit !!!
Well done guys. How will new comers compete ??.. On I see !...go to the store and buy rrc !!!
And for all those who are ejaculating about the new prize structure which might seem good for the moment are failing to see the overall picture / repercussions.
The 150k which was so easily obtained is being removed... same which happened for the 150k tourney vouchers... Free Rrc is being stripped away from the game !!!... The only way to get a respectable amount was via turf...now it's gone as well. Lol.. Those Indonesians and Chinese who had hundreds of accounts generating rrc can close shop. In short ...The ultimate result is that rrc price in the bm will sky rocket !!#... Just wait 2/ 3 months and you'll find out the hard way. If you want rrc the only ways to get it is via game store or race wager. But there again...only the few who have the balls to do it will high bet, knowing that rrc price costs you an arm and a leg !!#
Just food for thought or ??
I have a life to live and an not going to waste a weekend trying to reach top ranks. Have a family. A bit of free time was dedicated to the game...getting rrc and enjoying racing and the thrill of pinks. Without rrc I won't pink. An R2 car costs almost a mill to upgrade and a mill from the game costs 99 bucks?? Lol.. Wtf ???.. Plenty will quit.. Il bump this thread in a couple of months time...again...I know I'm right and even you know. You've been in the game doing top100 for years...tell me..where did you get the rrc from ?
Nb. ***** And still no one has yet explained what's the equivalent of a silver crate... Why of the abyssimal discrepancy between top and bottom teams when it comes to a silver crate equivalent.? @[rr]prodigal grim
I recall that the original thread pertaining to such changes Mentioned that a relevant substitution / prize to silver crate was being given...this had not happened here... My original post refers...
140k were deducted from the original prize and only 10Gems were given !.. Is this it ?..
> I think this is a great improved . Just need better turf cars for people to want too win
@Boffz79 at face value a biiig definitely.
Repercussions will be colossal. No one is seeing what is coming ! rrc from BM will be expensive. They are driving the BM prices up so that they can alter the in game price just a bit. By taking these measures GLU is masterminding the prices for rrc from bm under more flashy and better prize packages pretentious. They Will be removing the only 'easy' source for rrc. Where do you think the rrc in black market originates from ?
Once the 'easy' rrc sources are not available any more, rrc price from bm would be colossal. They are driving up the BM rrc price so they in turn decrease theirs.... Like.. Meeting half way.
Glu will never charge 1$ per mill. Its toooo cheap. By taking such measures they will drive bm rrc prices sky high.
rrc was being taken for granted by all since it was easily available. Its the core of the game. You can do without gems but without rrc you can basically quit.
> so what your saying is you want to score 50 points and call that turfing ? there are plenty off turf team that u could join and score a few k and u will get the rrc your talking about
@Boffz79
You are not understanding what's at stake here.
It's not what I want...its what will eventually happen to the game. From my end I have priorities and RR is not one of them albeit I like the game. I have a life to live and a family too. I opted to race just the bare minimum aiming for rrc. Don't give a shiit about gems. Those are a commodity not a necessity. My t100 days are gone...don't feel like wasting time on the game more than I should....
That said this is besides the whole point.
Removing EASILY OBTAINED rrc from the game will be like clamping the BM by its balls...its not that difficult to understand. Cut the source of rrc = complete monopoly by glu.
Unless glu slash the price on the current rrc value the repercussions on the game are many to list...however try to use your head and you'll come up with your own conclusions.
This is just theory but everyone knows that they are trying to address the issue of the BM. They allways say...the games economy cannot be re-written overnight...the repercussions of cutting the easily available rrc will be felt in a couple of months time. When the current bm rrc supply dwindles you will start to notice price for rrc getting more and more expensive. When that happens remember this post here.
> for what it's worth it didn't really bother me . I have cars and gems saved up rrc to tune so I'm ok . your points are valid but what's to stop someone from having 20 account linked to one team and scoring 1000 points and from 1 race and claiming 150k on every account that's 3 mill a week for no work at all. if people are really into the game they will play it legit they will build up like we all have at some stage . What do you even need 150k rrc for anyway if u have no interest ?
@Boffz79 You are Ok for the time being. Things will change soon. Rrc dwindles down pretty easily and you will eventually run out of them. If rrc becomes expensive (from bm), tell me ...do you think that racers would wage mills left, right and centre ? There again ..I'm assuming that rrc price in game would remain the same or slashed by 50%.
From my end I never mentioned I don't have interest in the game. I just do the bare minimum to get some crates and rrc in turf and likewise in showdown. I like the game but on the other hand I've got priorities. Can't waste time more than i should...
Re the 20 accounts you mentioned....you are coming exactly to my point...
How do you think that rrc is so in abundance from the BM. ?? That's the 'easily available' rrc I was referring to. Carbonated came up with a smart plan to control rrc. They purged the game of the easily available rrc. One of them is the 150k turf price (150k is nothing in the game...but as you mentioned..what if you have hundreds of accounts like Indonesians and Asians do ?)...another is the 150k tourney vouchers, the value of glow wheels from perf crates...introduction of non pinkable cars, removal of rrc prizes in the campaign (rrc farming) and others....
These are all facts.
Hopefully I'm wrong but I trust in my judgement. Things will change.
> The fact that mills cost more than $5 in this game is a complete joke.
@JohnKIV
John..you saying that cos you always bought rrc for cheap...something which was never intended by glu. Mindset and how and what you can upgrade will depend on your spending power - how much you can afford - current situation is similar but now it will be limited to just one seller...hence no competition between sellers hence pure monopoly. The game as you/we know it will change to a certain extent...but it will. Just think what can happen if you can't buy rrc at will..and you'll arrive to same conclusions I did.
Edit. And if the rrc were just 5$ it would be great...but I think that's just wishful thinking. Am not going to hope that glu slash the price for a mill rrc by 90%. It won't happen. Max they do is 50% and again..I wouldn't bet anything on it. Complete monopoly equal to complete control on the market. As far as I can say they can even increase the price for mills. It will be either take it or leave it scenario.
> @greenstaged if Carbonated shuts down all the mills dealers and the only way to get mills is to buy them in game for $50, racing rivals would be a dead game within a month. Even $5 a mill in game would cripple the game beyond repair. Carbonated needs to take a realistic approach towards in game currency. At $5 a mill, do you honestly think people would pay $10 for a maxed BMW m3 gt2? That's about what it costs to buy one from the showroom and max it out. The community would tell Carbonated to go F&@K themselves. Their approach is unrealistic and the decisions being made now, about rrc, could lead to the game closing down and many of their employees out of a job. They need to take a step back and seriously consider what will happen if mills dealers are gone and their in game price is anything higher than $1 per mill
Completely agree with you on the rrc pricing.
The thing is that they should have made their preliminary studies on what will happen to the BM following their prize restructuring. An ex racer is now part of their team and the things you said up here should be well familiar with him. As Things will eventually turn out though it's that no no mills will be available from bm. The same fate of the game is in their same hands. The thing is that I don't believe that glu will slash rrc price by 80-90%. They are too greedy to do it. @c y r u s
