    I'm up to a total of:

    2 Tracks
    6 Paint Jobs
    8 Blueprint Pieces
    11 Outfit pieces

    After a pretty good run last week, so far the past few days have been nothing but parts. But i'm sure it will turn around again, the more good prizes we win, the less are available to win so I kind of expected to be swamped in parts as we progress through the event.

    I think I can plat them
    I was just playing with you XD I don't think there is that much of a difference...

    anyway, my stats after 100gifts, full list here

    I really don't want to miss out on the new tracks because of RNG or a bug with the tracks not dropping.
    Let me know if anyone has had the same issue.
    Merry Christmas!
    Same here, it's getting ridiculous, i was in top 0.1% week one, and currently top 0.4%, still only one track!

    Yeah it's near the halfway point/week 3 now. Still only one free track from the beginning, skater's paradise. This rng game is not fun. To that cm response, no, it's not a Christmas event where we should be running around collecting free gifts and be happy regardless of what we get. This is an event like any other, where 99% of the purpose is track collection. I know RL wants everyone to have to grind the entire event. That's fine, but to have players essentially end up with nothing after a month long event is half over is ridiculous.

    since the start of the event i opened 128 gifts for 2 paintjobs,7 body outfits and of course NO TRACKS...
    He needed only 20 gifts, YES 20 GIFTS !!!!!to reach this total...
    And LOOK at his CRAZY STREAKS

    Gifts number 2,3,4
    21,22,23
    25,26!!! TWO TRACKS IN A ROW!!!
    35,36,37,38,39

    I could also talk about the 160 gems he gained,while i spent more than 800(for the 100 and 200 presents rewards on the lootwheel) for only a gain of 50 gems in ONE GIFT!!

    HEY REDLYNX IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE TO FIND A BALANCE???

    Very very fortunate or conversely...

    And in the long run the lucky riders who already have pretty much all the good stuff will quietly spend the next 2 weeks to be in the top 20%,while unlucky ones try hard to open maximum numbers of gifts in the hope to find the good stuff,meaning spend lots of gems...

    BAD BAD BAD!!!

    Also want to mention something:
    i see and play trials as a competitive game
    time to beat,leaderboards,pvp...so have tracks is more important that have all cosmetic stuff even if it is bonus.

    I've had all the paintjobs and costumes since nearly the beginning but I've only just gotten my second track yesteday. I guess I'm luckier than some? 2 tracks in over 100 presents isn't very good but it's not bad either.

    My issue isn't that though, it's the fact that this has become quite boring. You see, I don't need outfits, paintjobs or blueprints so I'm only being awarded parts (I guess in replacement of having everything else). Occassionally I see coins, magnets and gems etc. but even those aren't very interesting. I guess this is aimed more at rewarding the newer players. That's cool.

    Sorry for this moany post. I'm in the frame of mind to rewrite it - but I can't be bothered! Lol.

    I wish I'd done the same as Flooooodie and kept notes of what presnets I got!

    Hello dumai12 and tomtraimond,

    I know tracks are the most valuable rewards, and I can understand it is hard to take enough distance to see this event as it is : xmas event where you get free stuff all along the way. In a perfect world, players would be happy to get free gifts, what ever the gifts are, because, well, it's gifts. They would be even happier when they get the tracks.
    So IMO, what is happening here is not the fact you didn't get all the tracks, but that others did and not you. Which is a completely human reaction, but doesn't mean the event is not well designed.
    I do see where the frustration comes from, and this has been notified to the devs teams. Now we have two options for the rest of the event. A, keep on being angry, hence not enjoying at all. B, lay back, breath and chill to enjoy the rest of the event whatever the outcome is.
    I know you'll chose option A, but let's say option B is my wish for Xmas ^^
