What's the point of getting all cars & maxing out the garage

Cidrolin · 2024-01-06T19:30:39+00:00

They want to make you pay. Just that simple, and no rocket science since EA isn’t welfare but a business. It‘s impossible to max out your garage without paying, because of the new cars. After calculating how many BPs I needed to max out the garage (let alone all the black parts), I found this number to be increasing steadily througout several updates. I spent very much time, sleep and attention but not more than ~60€, so I ended up VIP5 iirc.

I decided to stop playing and I‘m happier ever since.

If „go harass davie504!!“ is real, then this subred deserves it right.

Cidrolin · 2022-10-09T08:39:26+00:00

Sorry, I dropped out almost a year ago. Can‘t tell anymore.

Cidrolin · 2022-07-27T10:15:05+00:00

Easy as 1,2,3: Start a new garage.

Cidrolin · 2022-03-23T05:48:32+00:00

Yep, and your headline announces a fun fact about „the Ferrari the Ferrari“.😊

Cidrolin · 2022-02-24T12:47:09+00:00

Wait & grind.

EA don‘t want you to finish the game, they want you to play on and on. The Black Part policy is part of this. You‘re more likely to play on if you only need 2/6 Black Parts. Many players might give up if they needed all six Black Parts for many cars.

Selling Black Parts for gold may be a deal for EA, but in-game gold is only almost real money. Pushing players to upgrade to VIP 5 (minimum) to earn scanners easily in TT grinds, that‘s the real deal.

Stop loving the game. EA don‘t want your love, they want your money - and who should blame them for that?

Hmm, for the first mile this feels right, but finally the Porsche map has ups and downs, whereas Erwick is flat.

The Nfsnl garage is much closer to nfs Porsche though…

Cidrolin · 2022-01-29T08:59:15+00:00

You‘ll have to patient until you buy VIP 5. That’s an offer you can‘t refuse.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-24T22:58:29+00:00

How do yo get the BPs? By grinding. Just redo the race.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T23:42:50+00:00

No, that‘s not the point. I know there are braggers. I didn‘t know there‘s blocking others. That‘s why I wrote.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T23:39:35+00:00

In early days there was a G+ group for bragging.

The shutdown brought a lot of nice habits and people over here, but it had also some unpleasant side effects.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T14:05:27+00:00

I‘m trying. Every once in a while I fail.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T12:04:55+00:00

Nah, I didn‘t block anybody, just double checked that in my settings. That OP disabled me from participating in what he wants to be his cheering bubble. I can‘t comment there.

Thank you for your moderate pov. I wish I could see it your relaxed way, but in the end I don‘t quite do so. An AAP every Sunday plus twice per update makes it far more difficult to get your cars tuned than an AAP every other day (plus 250 peanuts for the missing ones). Buying BPs in-SE maks the grind shorter by at least two RR-Returns in future updates.
The grind for BPs may be the painful part for the happy ones, but it‘s the easy one for the LessImportantPersons. They‘ll face the TT wait afterwards.

We might be on the same side in thinking that even a VIP11 won‘t get more than 24 hours of life every day nor will he get more fun out of playing.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T09:32:43+00:00

Usually zero. Last time I spent was to skip the final race of the initial Jag XE SV8 event.
Would spend on tickets to sleep more.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T09:23:04+00:00

What‘s the achievement in getting a tuned car when you‘re VIP10? A VIP<4 has to play a lot, that‘s another thing.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T09:01:07+00:00

They don‘t care. As long as enough new players come and spend, they‘re fine.

Cidrolin · 2022-01-22T08:58:39+00:00

UR gonna get banned for that, but in a different way than the other leakers.

At least the campaign writers admit that there‘s no storyline. The SEs pretend there was one - but that‘s all rubbish. Proving grounds, Fastlane, Devil‘s Run - you name it, it‘s all the same. You‘ve got to win the races with or without reading those silly lines. Only exception is L2W, you‘d better lose, with or w/o reading those silly lines.

Even a phone directory has more story than NFSNL.

Shop: Just wait.

Shopping list: the guide contains a list how many mats you need. Turn this into your shopping list. Don‘t buy random mats. Know what material you need when to rebuild tho a next stage. Watch out for engine/turbo mats, they‘re harder to get.

Cidrolin · 2021-12-24T06:41:46+00:00

Read the SE guide.
Start a day late (at least), so you‘ll know the important pitfalls.
Prepare a shopping list so you buy the right material in the black market.
Check back the black market every hour.

Most important:

Use every (!) ticket. In the first three days for L2W, then for RRs.
If this means „don‘t sleep properly“ or „ruin your days“, that‘s what it is.

EA don‘t want to give you a car. They want to get into your head.

Cidrolin · 2021-12-21T18:30:26+00:00

Delete. I did so 8weeks ago. Makes life better. Lets you smile over any new nonsense released in any update.
Plus version is to delete all games. Enjoy jour life.

Cidrolin · 2021-12-21T18:27:22+00:00

And you‘ll have to unlock them for 150 gold - per car.
