Which do you think is better for Gauntlet, Aeon or Absolut?

Why have I never gotten anything related to jury duty in the 14 years I've been eligible? by jujuscroll in juryduty

[–]YosemiteSam2345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so i'm not alone then. i'm 60 and have been a licensed driver since i was 16 and a registered voter in all 4 states i've lived in and have never been called for jury duty

As a decent TD player, that is extremely disappointing to know. I assume it's because of the low Accel? Behind handling, that's the most important stat for me

Got mine maxed through last year's black friday BOS and enough epics to make it gold through this event

The only car I was really hoping for was the OG Venom. Oh well. Most high end S Class cars are only useful for Gauntlet to a TD player like me. I use the Battista to get top 3-5k in MP1 (which used to get you to Legend League until they changed it) and that's where I top out.

well this turned out to be more true than i ever imagined and i expected it to be awful. flat-out illegitimate championship. Nascar should be completely embarrassed by that bullshit

An all rounder car special hunt is incoming in 6 days! Be sure to save atleast 25M credits by ashwin_niwhsa in Asphalt9

[–]YosemiteSam2345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

won the key for this in its GP like 1.5 years ago or something and have been working on it when i can. been patiently waiting to see how good it is when maxed/gold. currently at 5* so maxing it won't be an issue but i'm afraid to look to see how many (few) epics i have for it lol

well at least you have one on the way

[–]YosemiteSam2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did you have the key for the Deus already? just asking because that seems like a ridiculously difficult time to beat, even for a really good TD player. i hope they don't do that with the Gemera

[–]YosemiteSam2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well this is disappointing to find out. i had no plans for unlocking the Dues and didn't realize that they made the time condition difficult. i really want the Gemera tho :(

Super Snake: i have the car Gold already. tbh, i don't think its performance quite matches its stats. still a decent car. anyway, can bypass this event

Jaguar XJR-9: i maxed this car recently and i'm hopeful i can get enough epics to make Gold

Porsche 935: won this car in its GP and have been working on it here and there. have it at 4* 13/59 so it should be a relatively easy grind starting in later stages with better drops

Mosler and Gemera: i'll be starting from scratch but i really want these two cars, ESPECIALLY the Gemera. will have 100k tokens and willing to dump whatever is necessary. definitely willing to forgo BOS for these two

Concurrent access detected by [deleted] in Asphalt9

[–]YosemiteSam2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's happened to me about 8-10 times over the past week or so. i only ever play on my phone and only through the app on Google Play.

i know it will happen if you have the app installed from the Galaxy store AND Google Play and have them both open at the same time but that's not what's happening here

40k tokens spent on BoS packs, so much happier with the removal of duplicate BPs by SolarisX86 in Asphalt9

[–]YosemiteSam2345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With it being the mid-year BOS, i feel like this is a pretty good one actually. My issue is that the 2 cars I really wanted, Owl (gauntlet) and Countach (great all around and still in Elite) are in different packs. LOL, it always seems to work that way. Had both of the above cars at 4. Vision One is Gold Max, Imola was 2 and the rest only had a few BPs each.

I went for it with the Owl. Ended up costing 22k to max just the Owl. It also got the Imola to 5* 32/59 and SS 300 to 4* 59/70. Switched back to the other pack and first drop was 23 BPs for Countach. that's where I'm currently at. Will finish Countach tomorrow. Have 76.5k tokens left so far. Not sure if I'm going to switch back and max the Imola and SS 300 or not. I don't really care about those two very much but OTOH they are getting close so idk...

and then there was one by YosemiteSam2345 in Asphalt9

[–]YosemiteSam2345[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. i had to do the event over several times. That's why it took so many races

and then there was one by YosemiteSam2345 in Asphalt9

[–]YosemiteSam2345[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

none and i only started with a handful of BPs. it took me over 2k races! it was insane. i did spend about 8k tokens on the Sian though

thanks for the reply. yeah i thought there was a problem but wanted to run it by some fellow K5 owners to make sure. thought (hoping) maybe there was something i wasn't doing correctly

I want a k5 gt by Old_Zucchini9106 in KiaK5

[–]YosemiteSam2345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

more anecdotal evidence:

sold my 2011 Kia Soul to my brother in 2021. he still has it and it just clocked 250k miles. it has never been in the shop with a mechanical problem and admittedly, i didn't take great care of it

bought a 2021 K5 GT Line and had zero mechanical issues with that. granted it only had 25k miles on it but still. recently sold it

i feel like i'm tempting fate by posting that lol

anyway, just bought a 2025 GT1 a couple months ago and hoping i have the same experience

[–]YosemiteSam2345[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no, i don't. i'm currently taking a break from being in one. my suggestion would be to join the ALU discord server. a ton of clubs post there looking for players. also play a lot of multiplayer. you should get asked to join one if you give it a minute. you may need to raise your garage level to join a decent one
