Re: Rivals race time period

Another rivals race begins. Another BS time period. 2d21h. So that makes it 4am local time when it finishes for me. WTF! Such dumb timings. Why not make it 3d FFS!


Is there another rivals race ongoing? I want to skip this if there is. I won't play for a day or two and avoid the compulsory registration of the rivals race. Wish one could drop from a race early and get a common/uncommon/rare crate as a consolation prize. It would be 75% chance for common, 20% chance for uncommon and 5% chance for rare.

    @EinarThePillager It doesn’t affect the game play though? You just play normally as as if it’s not running. Although my tin foil hattery says that it’s rigged MM during this time. 🤔🤫🤭😂

    I just want to skip the rivals race. I don't want to get too pressured into competing against other players and climb as far as I can. I already won the last rivals race on 2 separate accounts on both factions, and got to Diamond 2 (I started at around Platinum 1, or slightly below) at the same time. My limit on medal count is at Diamond 1 with 100 extra medals. Is there anyway to know when a race is running so I can easily drop out?

    Don’t let it get to you. Why should you feel pressured? I’m in dead last from losing on purpose. Who cares?

    @Marine_CorporaI This is true. The only pressure used to be to win the rivals only skins. Now the boxes can just be earned by logging in daily or bounties.

    Well, its more like of a hassle to participate in a race when I have no intention to win. Sometimes, if I plan to win a race and I had a cap on the total medals, issues arises if an opponent rises past the cap.

    I wish the race was an opt-in mode. I usually just don't play when a race is active.
