Here's a great idea, let's wait and see what happens :D

That is a crap idea, I want to know if I get an extra sponsor if I promote, not wait and see.

Anyway - are we getting the race viewer? I assume not, since Vlad didn't mention it....

I think it would be more correct to encourage promotions in elite and spot-free sites to have variants of sponsors to sign them automatically at the beginning of your chosen sezon.sponsorul pay you a certain amount for the whole season, but signing the contract, all the money from his sponsor you automatically enter the budget ... this really would be a tremendous encouragement to groups can promote superior ... if you have 2 spot blanks for example, to sign with 2 sponsors immediately, one sponsor to give you 1 million per race and one 1 million, valid for. 17 races ... that would mean 34 million that would add immediately to your budget !! That would be a great option ... and the 2 spot sites you've signed ... to only can you sign another contract ... what about all season :)?!

• You can undo your last car update if you haven't done any further actions. This can be done for free until you've driven 34 races, otherwise the cost is 2 supporter credits.

So the game became a pay to win game and then people are surprised that so many former champions leave. :(

I don't think this really helps you win though a experienced Person shouldn't Make this mistake anyway

Added an option to undo the last car updates when no further actions have been done.


Its right here: /gb/ChangeLog.asp
Its not unannounced but i understand this is a good place to discuss the change.

By reading from there i also noticed this announcement which I didnt notice by the time it was released:

Disabled registrations to the game through proxy servers or with temporary email addresses.


Nice to see Vlad is making a huge effort to keep the game legit and improving it to increase the community's interest. For this and some other reasons I've become a game supporter recently. Its not just about the money, its about showing that I apreciate the work being done so we can all keep our hobbie.

What's this sim card symbol with an R in on the url. Seen it on phone and it brings up all achievements of the managers profile you click the symbol on.

The symbol is only on manager profile.

Considering it only works if you haven't taken any other action, that's a pretty weak version of pay to win. It's more like "pay to undo a mistake if you notice it immediately".

Quite disappointed by this decision. Owners did exactly what they wanted to do, disregarding the community's feedback. I wonder why they asked then. A wrong step in the wrong direction imho.

Pretty sure that Vlad did exactly what most agreed upon; allow undo, but only if no changes, then an element to help those most likely to need it, whilst at a cost to those that should know better.

IMO, Vlad has got implementation exactly right here. Not often you hear me saying that.

You can undo your last car update if you haven't done any further actions elsewhere in the game. This can be done for free until you've driven 34 races, otherwise the cost is 2 supporter credits.



my only critique is to add 'elsewhere in the game' to the description. It just reads a bit better imo.

Otherwise a good change. People will always feel entitled to something that 5 minutes ago they never knew existed but that is just human nature.

Bit over the top, pay to win would be a lvl 3 car part restriction, or only use medium and wets, no sponsorship ect with out premium, this neither hinders or slows down progression for anyone

IMO it's a good change, this kind of mistake can be a really frustrating, and the undo feature only work if the manager notice te wrong change right in time. There's no way to take advantage, unless the fact of you keep what your planning.

My criticism still in the price of being a supporter. Perhaps if the credits would cost a little less, we would have more supporters.

People said it was a nice implementation, but if it was equal for all, supporters and non supporters. Vlad decided to do what he initially wanted to do, doesn´t matter what community said, so as Ale said, he did exactly what he wanted.

Can´t wait to see what´s next when Vlad sees the income is not so big and he still needs money.
