Re: Value for Gold

well like a sucker i got tempted by the latest limited time crate offer thinking id get the last 25 bps for my M4 razor, it took 23 crates totally 4725 gold

was it worth it? NO!

but once id bought the first 10 crates i almost felt compelled to keep on until id got all the bps i needed

on the other hand though, i ended up with a ton of scrap points and was able to buy loads of legendary parts for other cars waiting to be maxed out, but it was still a lot of real cash for those last bps

it wouldnt be so bad if occasionally they had special offers on buying gold

    @richieluv76 That's totally insane but that's ok, now you will be one of the proud players to see your BMW Razor full upgrade, I really envy you but no so much to do the same, at this point full upgrade all the SE cars is only for proud because they are totally useless in the game, you really don't need them (only for one or two car series)

    I cannot imagine doing the same for all the SE cars, that would be around 500-600 usd, that's around 14 PS4 games, and for me this option totally worth it.

    Happy racing!!

    Just realized upgrading parts to epic itself is so freaking expensive. I dont have any money anymore. Had 450K, and all finished it and still not even close. Where do u all make currency now if it's so expensive. Some of the parts I just bought off the chop shop..but wasted all that effort to get it till the epic parts as I had to scrap existing part as no money to keep it. Got nothing much for scrapping..

  • @icearmor Wait until need to upgrade those EPIC to LEGENDARY, this is totally insane, around 7m cash for the six parts from Epic 5* to Legendary 7* on Sport and around 8.3m for Super cars, didn't try on Hyper cars yet but I'm guessing around 10m cash, that's around 6 week per car, and we have at least 3 of them (plus Hurscan and LaFerrari), need one more year to finish everything on the game.

    So in between waiting for SE Cars and their BP, but if all of them will be insane like BMW Razor BP cannot upgrade those cars, so let's see what the future have for us.

    Happy racing!!

    so then how do u make that much money? i know its possibly easier now with six tuner trial money races per week and also tourney(no viper yet so 50k*6)..but races giving u 1000 + max of 10k sometimes it;s hard to make the kind of money to upgrade those parts..

    think going forward, all parts will have to be bought from chop shop, so now the question is more like how do u make a lot of scrap points..

  • @icearmor The only way to make money is racing any time every day, it depends which races are you choosing, I'm farming every day for gasket, battery, Ferrari BP and McLaren BP, the last races for gasket in Chapter 11 they offer 6.5k and 10k as a gift, and the Chapter 14 (Boss) sometimes offer 12.5k and 15k, battery races offer from 6.5k to 20k, so every day I got around 250k cash between races prizes and gift from crates, but I'm racing almost every time my fuel and tournament tickets are refill, if I'm lucky somedays raise 350-400k but need to use all fuel and tourney tickets available.

    Not magic at all, only race on every single opportunity you have, wait for all access pass and farm cash, my recommendation for you is you should get the Viper, those 25k difference between Porshe and Viper are a lot, depends how many restarts you have but if you have 1 are 50k, 2 are 100k, 3 are 150k, 4 are 200k, so 3 times a week the difference is huge.

    I'm upgrading parts from purple to gold and almost never need to farm anything else but gasket, relay and battery, the others materials come from TT and free crates (every week I spent between 500-800k cash buying normal crates, easier than farm for everything, because almost never refill my fuel with gold.

    Happy racing!!

    Finally bought out viper from the black market. guess this is the single biggest mistake i made during the course of the game when i had the money to buy it out. i don't want to wait any more cause my challenger srt needs the parts from tuner trials and am stuck for money so often as am upgrading challenger and amg at the same time. guess would have made a lot more money and scrap points if i had bought the viper long time back...but i miss buying those premium carts as am now broke for gold...

    sorry bit unrelated, how much should the PR of AMG be to be able to race the mclaren boss? just want to know if i need to get the legendary parts for the amg or epic is fine...

    I can't remember exactly what my AMG PR was to beat McLaren boss but I think it was around 812-820.  Maxed (885PR) the AMG will take you well into Ch 19.  I used it until 5 races from the end and now I'm working on the Mc650 to finish off the underground.

    Just revisiting this topic, I've realized that 90 gold loading docks pick is the best value for gold. do it everyday with 50 gold per day purchase and it keeps me coming back to the game. Buying the viper srt at the start though is a good idea for farming currency and after that 90 gold per day. don't spend gold on anything else.just my thoughts..
