    THANKS UBI !

    Some people sometimes get the update earlier than others for whatever reason. I'm sure you will get it soon. If I could give you mine I would since I don't mind waiting haha.

    Hmmm. I am curious what the "special offer" cost for "The native Warrior" outfit is going to be.... considering it gives an extra free Showdown slot in the Bunker. . . .

    Not that it matters, since almost certainly am not buying at this stage... but a lot of people might. I have to admit, its an excellent perk to have compared to some other outfit powers in the past.

    And its intriguing when you consider this.... originally (early Frontier release) the slots could be run every hour... then an update arrived that made it 1.5 hours, and they immediately gave us an outfit we could earn that dropped it back to 72 minutes (almost an hour). In other words, they gave us something.... then made it worse.... and made us pay something to get it back to what it was before. Could that mean.... we might lose a free Showdown slot next season so we get it back this way? Hmm... time will tell....


    Also... anyone seen these "Bronco Bucks" (to be collected on the loot wheel, sounds like) or "Horseshoes" yet?

    A month ago I've seen this event for a few seconds (while lost progress, updated from server, but next update came fast and I wasn't able to explore more).

    There was Sun God, who gave mission to collect Horseshoes.

    Looked something like this but with different items:

    So far, loving the new tracks and the fact donuts can be gained through the bunker!

Grease Transit is another story, that level is basically the combination of all of the hard elements of the hardcore Tier 1 island... not a fan of that course. I do like that Grease Transit has that previously hidden burger billboard front and center (it's to the left of the start of one of the existing courses).
    I ran yesterday all once at start and I platted the Stuntman plaza with the 1st try...

    and then worked all others to plat except that Grease Transit...
    Still 3sec and 1fault too shoft. I hate that track... the middle jump to that steep hill to climb is pain in the ***. And the last jump to finish is just pure luck to hit correctly.

    Even if you dont get the update right now, you don't miss much since the rodeo event hasnt been triggered yet.

    Also about the daily deals, don't waste your gems on it to specifically refresh for new paints, tracks cause i got none with several attempts. I guess the daily tracks, paints are the same as the machine wheel hence the reason why none of them pop for me feelsbadman

    I share your pain with Grease Transit. Spent twice as much time to plat that than the other 5 combined. Fortunately, the platinum time is quite generous, even messing up half the areas can get a platinum. Not wrecking was the challenge for me.

    The pain was worth it though, current no1 on iOS with 23.3s! First time I have ever been top with more than 2 people on the leaderboard .

    Yeah, I noticed that it has quite much "air" in it. But still the faultless run is quite hard to hit.
    I learned the middle part quite well now, still need to hit the ending correctly! I hate to have gold in my map
