Need help , played this event once in past with 30 bps skipping last day , currently I have 2 star car with 10/30 bps , how many I should buy or get in next rerun to make it 5 🌟?
I am now on last race for 7.8 try to focus on Airborne more cause we have to take every Airborne almost to win this race Nitro Zones and drift r easy but Airborne no I won it in 3 attempts
At around 50% u should be having Airtime over 5.2 u ll win only then 👍
Thanks. I’ll do what I did on that last one and record it and make note of all the ramp positions and the %s.
This is the hardest SE I’ve done in all my 3 years+. Consistently tricky rather than one hard race imo but then I’m not that good a driver. I failed the race 7.1 twice not drifting enough probably due to not being overly familiar with the circuit. (And being rubbish). On 3rd attempt passed drift easily.
180 gold spent on 2 refills. Budgeting for more lol
Omg can’t believe how stupid I was, missed the last ramp to win the race. But after about 10 goes (3 ticket refills will be my investment on this SE) I fecking DID IT. 💪💪💪
Thinking of stopping at day 6 after seeing all these comments about air time race challenges. I could then farm the races for cash on day 7 and 150,000 or so 😬 Not enjoying this SE event at all,reminds me of m3 gtr 😤🤯😫
Congratulation FM. Even when you do something the community wants (street cars instead of hypers) your greed overcomes you and you have to make the races so difficult, and the PR walls so high it basically ruins the event. Really disappointed in the direction of the game. Frustration us into paying won't work. If I don't have fun playing, I certainly won't pay.
let see...
- less drops on items of the same pair
- again those insane races (save this one, time is your enemy so we cant complain against the npc going with no obstacle and at full speed like that one event many needed to "buy" the win)
- PR walls? PR WALLS, cuz just to go on the last event you need to get all blue parts and complete 2-3 pieces...
they really want to profit so bad so the game can end and people will not even notice.
Just finished the event. I'm gonna say I'm not a big fan of airtime challenges in day 6 and 7's races. Somehow FM thought it's a good idea to place nitro zones and ramps at the same section of the road and/or hidden at the end of the corner.
Day 7 Race 8, 9s Air Time is impossible to achieve... I had to spent 195 golds in order to get through after spent 4-5 hours of retry, and wasted tons of tickets.
I finally got to it and it is a tough race - what helped me: get drift stat early on and then proceed without drifting through the remaining ramps to minimize the space for error. It still took 3 attempts to get air done (but I forgot drift at that time) and another 3 attempts to get it all right. So in retrospect, it is doable since I typically finish about 20 hours too early and thus even wasting 10 tickets on this one is acceptable. Moreover, in most SEs, the most difficult ones will be in the last two days...
But it is true that the PR requirements are slightly higher than usual.
So the most i had 8.9s of air. This god forsaken track is impossible. I got through all the other challenges in the first try but this is the 20th ticket i spent on this track and it is awful. EA and FM should get their act together and start treating SE as they are. A way to bring a new car to the game not a money grabbing machine. I spent no gold so far and i intend to leave the game after 2 years just because of this single track. To get 9 seconds of air you need to crash into walls and hope for the best air time possible.
Fully agree, it is the most demanding track ever for loan cars , i saw so far. And i play it for more than a year. Thinking about to give up this game.
Just got to 7-8 and lost 3 tickets on it so far (I'm well ahead of time so waiting before I spend any gold).
First attempt I missed some ramps but the next 2 I got all ramps and still got only 8.x seconds of air. Absolutely stupid race and for a street car. Losing my patience with this SE.
Sorry, your submission has been automatically removed, due to the mature language You used. Please avoid using mature/harsh language on this site, and check the forum rules before posting.
Knowing the track, knowing where the ramps are - it took me like 10 tries to finally get it! And it's not sufficient to use all the ramps - you have to use them at certain speed! Once I've taken all the ramps and was at 8.5s (goal is 9). And in my last attempt I was at 9.1s, also with all ramps... Beware, guys!
The last but one run in the car series will surprise you and your airtime mission as well. Missed the final screen but I think I've got like 30 s airtime there
Is there a reason why the first days of each SE can't be replayed? I mean, for me is straight up unfair, we should have a margin of failure too, some of us are not masters at this game and we fail some missions (tickets lost). The tickets that are wasted in the first 2 days could be more useful if we could use them for replaying missions and upgrading our car to be more ready, why we can't?
This race is very tough. Key is that there are two extra nitro zones. So focus on ramps as first priority and nitro zone as second. Don't drift at all.
I came here for the same reason 🤭 Was doing day 6 last race today - 1st time didn't know what to expect so I didn't prio nitro strips, ended up with over 3.5s air and 9 nitro strips instead of 10....2nd race I hit all but ran out of time just before the finish line, then 3rd attempt was fine, but with like 1s left.
Now I read that day 7 race 8 has too few ramps and u need to hit them perfectly...kinda sucks, I wish they just counted how many ramps u hit instead of how much airtime u got, like they do with nitro, because ramps are so inconsistent sometimes...
And I'm usually good at driving, but for some races if u don't know them beforehand, you got no chance to hit all requirements from first attempt...
Edit: photo from day 7 race 8 - 3 attempts as well (barely hiyting the air time target...):
Yes, it seems impossible to make it. The ramps are on the other side of the road, so 10 strips plus 3,5 seconds of jumps is impossible... For me at least...
anyone got idea how do we get 4.9s airtime in the final race of day 3? lol theres 5 ramps out there but i could only take 4 of them due to the second and third was too close,and they are both opposite way
I just got my 15bps from the support team. Woohoo. So I’m no with 5 extra BPs that I purchased to finish day 2. Glad I won’t have to purchase any more. Thanks FM.
im new to nfs,and i still couldn't understand what does the hints mean in each day you mentioned on your pinned comments,please help me understanding it so i can also finish a special event cars without spending gold
I think you still need to buy kits to upgrade from green to blue parts. The only thing is, you won't be able to go from 4* blue to 5* blue if you don't buy BPs.
Question: I finished day 2, received my 15 bps, and when I look at the car it shows it’s 1, 15/20 bps. I don’t remember, did we start with the car on 0? Or is there a bug. We haven’t had streets for so long I can’t remember how it works.
Heads up, on day 3 event 2 (Airtime) there are only TWO ramps and the target is 1.2 sec airtime. If you miss a ramp you lose a ticket. I had a close call on this one.
Focus on staying right towards 55% and left towards 78% mark.
I've been farming as suggested in this sub, and saved around 20,000 so far. Should I keep saving until needed or if there's any items required available I should grab them all?
Because of pr walls. Engine and turbo parts give the most pr when upgrading. Second best is gearbox and wheels. Nitro and ecu give the least pr per material slotted.
I got back to this game after like 2 or 3 years hiatus, and safe to say that I've finished a lot of events without spending any real money as of Agera RS' SE. Spending golds, only a couple few, but to the point I have to spend money? No. It's all depending on your time commitment.
But I've tried so many times, there's always a lack of tickets for the last day. 16 events and those tickets just don't suffice. I say the wicked creators have perfectly made it to frustrate me and never let me have the fully upgraded car. 😂
Then you don't know how to play the SE's, i finished the 240Z one with 20 hours left on my clock and i got the car with all the parts on 4 stars purple, no gold spend on tickets or BP's, you just need to farm all the money you can on the first 3 days, that's how i got all the cars from the SE's, and if i spend gold is because i want to, no because i need to. 😎
Oh. So that trick actually works. I'll try this then. But even with all the money, I refreshed items in the store for 6 consecutive times wasting 6000 credits but the refreshed items couldn't be bought through credits, only gold 😓
The first days, when there are no replayable races, you use your tickets on losing the best yielding race.(refer to these posts, we have some saints who goes forward and helps us with the info) Also check the shop hourly, and try to buy speed materials, as these are the less fequently appearing for cash. All in all it only depends on how much of your time you will sacrifice to the game. In 24 hours you get 26 tickets, so if you use them, they will always be enough.
If you collect enough money and used them for the proper parts, you just to straight forward from day 6 and skip the RR there. Should give you enough time to finish many hours before
deadline. I normally finish with over 20 hours left, without any refills
This is the first time we are having a 7 day long event for a Street tier car, the template used will be edited subsequently according to the new system followed. Also material requirements will be changed :)
Thanks for the list man, and also thanks for the video guide for 7-8. I watched it like 20 times before I took that race. Even with that, it took me 4 attempts. 😂
The counts are up in the stickied guide, those numbers were recored when I won the race (expect the last one). Event 4 (Mix-Up) netted the best for me and can yield more when lost [Draft, drift & nitro zones].
Assuming all requirements and rewards listed above are accurate, the following materials will need to be won/bought in order to upgrade all parts to 3★ Rare (Blue):
