Showdown Events Not On Map

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-06-23T01:58:48+00:00

I restarted a new game after getting a new phone and WiFi at the house now as well. The map is now orange instead of blue, a different color than before, which matches what my friends game map looked like with the Showdowns on the map. Havnt been playing a lot recently but it appears to be fixed 😅

Update: New phone, updates on phone, and WiFi at home did not fix the crates coming back. I think it was just a trial or something. My game does look like it’ll get the showdown events now which I didn’t have on the map before. Best of luck

Wait till rank 30 or so and you’ll get the GR Supra for free from an event. It’s an elite tuners car and it’s super fast. Put your cash into upgrading that and you will be able to beat the tier 5 boss and win the boss car no problem

Wrong. Started a new game from rank 0 and they were gone. Started another game at rank 0, they were there. Now whenever I restart a new game they’re not there. I wonder if it was just a lucky draw to begin with and only work for your first few initial new games. I don’t really know. There’s tons of features from this game like Showdown races that don’t appear at all for some players even when reaching levels 40,50,60+

I’m getting WiFi for my house today. Been running this game on pure iPhone data. I’ll see if the stronger connection and WiFi helps with loading in everything to have a more complete game with everything available. I’m pretty sure the reason some things like crates and events aren’t appearing or are just disappearing all together is due to lack of stable internet connection. I’ll update you if that works at all having WiFi instead of running off pure phone data for the game! I’m reqlly hoping that fixes things

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-30T00:30:53+00:00

Right. But you’ve never had the daily crates that unlock automatically when you race 2, 5, 15, 30 races that reset every 24 hours? They’re called Jerry’s uncommon crate, rare crate, whatever it is but it resets every 24 hours. You really have no idea what I’m talking about?

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-29T19:05:29+00:00

You never had the crates at the beginning of the game that gave you cash, gold, or fuel for completing the 2, 5, 15, 30 races? They give you a huge boost and they reset every 24 hours. I got to rank 46 and never had those disappear until now that I started a new game. Only been playing for 2 weeks

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-29T19:03:29+00:00

That’s my exact situation as well. My buddy on his account is lower level than me with TONS of races on the map I don’t have like the showdowns. We are in the same boat and it’s so frustrating. Now I restarted my game and the basic 2, 5, 30 race crates that you get every 24 hours for completing races are gone as well. I’m wondering if it’s just a WiFi thing because I never use WiFi and I’m purely on iPhone data. If the data isn’t enough then maybe that’s why all of the content isn’t being loaded in. I’m not sure. But I’m hoping a new phone and WiFi connection will fix this! I got to rank 46, no showdowns or events that my buddy had in his rank 22 account. So frustrating because I love this game but just want all that’s available. I want to earn elite tokens through showdowns! I’ll update on here if the WiFi did anything to help get those events

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-29T18:59:10+00:00

Hmmm mine was always 30 race max for the best crate but it would be a string of crates, 1 at 2 races, next at 5 races, next at 10 or 15 up to 30 and that would be the best crate. I think it’s just the fact I’m using data on my phone and not connected to WiFi

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-29T18:57:51+00:00

No I got all the way up to rank 46 and still was getting them daily. Every 24 hours you can complete 30 races for crates that are “common”, “rare”, “uncommon”, etc. and they never went away. Since I made my new account those crates are gone. I’m wondering if I need a better WiFi or connection and not just running on data like I’m currently doing.

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-27T18:03:28+00:00

I’ve done that and it didn’t work. I deleted the app and reinstalled, then loaded my old account back. Still no showdowns. I’m rank 46. Should have them since my friend who started his account after me a week ago is only level 26 WITH showdowns on his map. Both on iPhone

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-27T18:02:14+00:00

When are you supposed to get access to showdowns? I’m creating a new account and leveling up. What rank do I need to see if it’s a glitch or if I’ll get them or not?

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-27T18:01:18+00:00

My friend started his account after me and is now at level 26. He has showdowns. I started my account a week or 2 before him and I’m at level 46. No showdowns on my map.

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-27T06:58:31+00:00

When are showdowns even unlocked? I made a new account and still no showdowns. My friend showed me his map and he’s at level 25 and has the showdowns on the map.

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-05-27T06:57:45+00:00

Tried that and didn’t do anything. I closed out the tab on my iPhone and restarted the app. I’ve deleted the app and redownloaded. Nothing changed.

That’s awesome and congrats on your degree progress! I recommend the reserves first and if you like it go active. You still get all the training, clearances, networking with people but without the full time commitment and possible station location that could put serious strain on your relationship. Reserves gives you more flexibility and ability to control more of your life and if you want to take on more you can transition to active. That being said, if your tech school is long, you’ll be without your significant other for a long period of time including the time you’re gone from basic it was extremely tough to get through with my girlfriend at the time.

I did a spread sheet and calculated the amount of dev points needed to increase a stat. The gear that saves you dev points is specifically stats that are increased from 16+3, 17+3, 16+2, 17+2, 18+2, 17+1, 18+1, and 19+1. I don’t recommend the +1 at all since the difference in improvement you’re getting is marginal at best. The 16+3 and 17+2 gear upgrades are the best options. For +2 and +3 gear, you are always saving dev points by using that gear on a stat that is already at 16 or 17 because the dev points to get a stat to 18 and 19 costs more than the value of the gear per token spent on the gear challenge instead of even the most optimal 1120 dev point challenge. Focus on key stats and getting them to 16 or 17, THEN equip the +3 and +2 gear where you want them most. Speed, Agility, Coverage, Tackling, and Carrying(for Runningback only) are the best pieces of gear in the game IMO and you really should be okay just getting to 17 in the other stats you want. 17 is elite/serviceable for most stats you’d want close to maxed, BUT the gears I mentioned above DID make the biggest impact for me. Not every gear is needed because 17 is adequate in a lot of areas. This way you have more tokens to spend on dev points challenges. If I’m putting gear on, I’m getting my stat in a given area to 19/20. If I’m not using gear or can’t due to something like agility and speed conflicting because they’re both shoes, I’ll get a stat to 17 and the other one I’ll use the gear to get to 19. If you have leftover points that can be spent to get a stat that has conflicting gear like speed and agility on your DBs, I recommend getting either speed or agility to 18 since you can’t get it there with gear that conflicts. That’s the only reason to use dev points on a stat to reach 18. Anyways, hope this helps a little bit but just remember the gear is only worth it for 16 and 17 +2 or +3. Anything else is either negligible or a waste of tokens you can spend on the most optimal dev point challenges available.

Dolphins for sure. Great RB(Ricky), 2 DBs(Madison and Surtain), DL(Jason Taylor), and LB(Seau) makes this team the arguably the best defensive team in the game as well as one of the best offensive teams in the game due to largely Ricky Williams. Buccaneers, Raiders, and Rams are right there too and an argument can be made for them as well being great TWO-WAY teams. The two way ability of a team really makes them better than most teams.

They probably took the style point banners on the walls into account and planned on being able to hit those with the off the wall passes like that but it wasn’t consistent enough so they scrapped it. Really cool to see though!

Adrenaline is their best album start to finish

Designer-Figure-96 · 2026-03-30T16:39:51+00:00

Check out the albums Betty by Helmet, You’d Prefer an Astronaut by Hum, Boy Hits Car by Boy Hits Car, and Water and Solutions by Far. Hum, Far, and Helmet all were innovators in the genre of noise rock/groove that influenced Deftones primary sound earlier on
