@mjeii6 in order to complete each of the special events you need to make sure that on the early days you farm for materials on all of the replayable races and use any extra cash to buy needed materials from the special event store, if you dont do this you wont be able to reach a high enough pr to complete the later races
also during day one and day two once the chapter is complete most seasoned players will use up their event tickets to deliberaterly lose replayable races to earn special event credits, as a lost race does not count as one of the 3 replays
for example, if there is a replayable time trial race, then use up any extra tickets to continually run that race, drifting as much as possible but dont cross the finishing line before the time runs out, the race counts as a failed race, you'll earn the credits for drifting/perfect starts/near misses etc but it wont use up one of the 3 replays
you'll then be able to build up event credits to use in the event store
the best races to do this on are nitro and airborne races, but any race will do as long as you generate as many credits as you can
@CommanderAdnan i understand your point, i remember my first special event and i thought it was impossible to complete it and get the car, but these special events are open to all and every player regardless of how long they have been playing the game start on an equal footing and once you understand the "rules" of how the special events work then there's no reason why everyone shouldnt complete it other than not being able to spend the time on it
As was already said, all the special events do require some dedication to the game, you can't win if you do not use most of your tickets, especially last two days. You can pay your way out a bit, but one or two sessions a day is definitely not enough. Thats the way it works. The good thing about last couple of events is that a start of the event can be chosen in an interval of several days, while before that it always ended during the weekend. While it probably suits the most players, some of us have sometimes more free time during working days.
The other reason why special events can be very rewarding for a newcomer is that the outcome is similar for all players, and this may be a top car in your garage, if you have just started, which can significantly speed up your progress in the campaign. So the effort needed here pays off well.
There is a similar thread after every event. This should stop. You should have asked for tips and advice BEFORE the event.
Now, instead of repeating everything that has been said over and over, I would simply suggest that you read the following article:
@mjeii6 that is ok if you do not want to pay, I feel the same (but admit I've spent a couple of bucks for some monthly gold cards during that year of playing). Then you just need to play a lot - you are of course allowed to sleep through the night, but once you use most of your daily tickets you should have no problem having enough materials to build the car to required level. There is no problem if the right material does not drop, as there is no such thing as the right material. Of course backplate can give you more PR than a tank does, but then again, you can always find enough materials in the shop available for cash and not gold. And if not, you can refresh the shop for as little as 1000 cash, half of what an average race yields. I have never had a problem hitting the required PR if I played out most of my tickets. No gold involved.
@mjeii6 - You get your resources throughout the day until you reach the limit. Once you have full tickets, fuel etc. (and does not matter if that is 5/5, 6/6, 25/25), you are not getting anything new. That means it does not matter whether you use all your tickets/fuel at once and wait till you max it out again (or just before that), or that you race a single race every hour or so. But you should minimize time when you are at the limit (thus you are not receiving any new tickets/fuel).
See it this way:
Example with 5 tickets is the limit, new ticket every 55 minutes.
A) Get up at 7am with 5/5, play at least one race and some more races during the first hour. Then you can race available races every four and a half hour or less. Do that all the way to 11pm, when you go to sleep, and the same in the morning.
Used tickets per day: 22-23 out of 26 possible.
B) You get to your game first at 8am and play all your tickets, then again during the lunch break, again at 7pm which is the last time you play.
Used tickets: 14-15 out of 26. Compared to scenario A you are missing 8 races (about one third), which is about 6 more materials and 30k cash (daily).
