    Hi VacuumWeasel - It's disheartening to learn that you are not enjoying the BMW Rally. While we've tried to give everyone a chance to get a fair shot at winning the bike (stay in the top 5% all 4 weeks and you'll get it!), we also understand you may not be enjoying the experience with Rally Tickets.

    Rally Tickets are a way to avoid paying 10-fuel cans for each tier-lll race (since BMW F 800 GS is a tier-lll bike).
    Also, you'd get 1 Rally Ticket every 20 minutes in case you don't plan to purchase.

    As I've mentioned before, players in the top 5% for all 4 Legs would get the BMW F 800 GS, so there's definitely going to more than 4 riders at the end of the Rally with the bike

    We hope you play the BMW Rally a little longer and get ahead with Rally Tickets not being an annoyance for you.

    Sounds reasonable. But some of us have a decent stock of Rarified Fuel, some of us have Unlimited Fuel Costume. And we can't use it here. Also, as far as I remember, in previous rally events we could hit retry button almost indefinitely to try and beat our own record.

    Personally I don't really care about the bike. But I care about track pieces that appear on the loot wheel. I fear with ticket system in place we won't have enough chances to collect all the pieces without spending all our gems on the damn loot wheel.

    Yeah, but tier-III races will only happen during the last two weeks or even only the last week. So where's the sense in that?
    Still, this might be one of the better things to do for newer players. If it weren't for your greed (again gems for tickets - I wonder what new thus poor players are supposed to get gems from other than buying for real money again) and your crooked argumentation (see above.)

    Plus, you still choose to just ignore our other requests and complaints, right?
    I'm having some serious Sean Spicer moments here..

    Yay!, another currency for the economy that we can buy with an existing currency that we can buy for real money… just what everyone wanted!!

    It makes perfect sense really… if you started the race with fuel you would be able to fully restart the track without penalty, this way you have to pay with a 'Rally Ticket' if you don't get it quite right, pay to win and all that, although really, it’s free to wait, pay to play.


    Credit where its due mind… at least the top 5% should actually get all the blueprints to get the bike, you could even afford to be outside the top 5% one week.


    Sad to see track pieces on the lootwheel again, can we buy for 10 gems at the end if we don’t get them all?

    Nice bunker match today. You're irritatingly fast! I like to wait until the last few days so all you fast guys are already done. What the heck are you doing loitering at rank 3? You ended my streak and set me back a star!

    Hello I have a question about the tracks for this event.
    So far I have pieces for rampant ramps and skyline fling. Are these the only two we need to collect pices for? And do I have 4 weeks to get all of the pieces, or just 1 week?

    They said 5 new tracks for the event in the announcement and based on previous events you have this week to get these tracks.

    So far the ticket currency isn't pissing me off like I thought it would. They regenerate relatively quickly and I've had good luck with winning more off the wheel with free respins for commercials.

    Hell, you're definitely right. I'm in hospital these days and was pretty high yesterday. I totally forgot that we can't retry for free anymore which makes it even harder even more so for newer players.

    I must correct myself, this is just another "perfect" rip-off. What a shame that team has become, from the devs to the two remarkably painless public relations jokers in here.

    Sorry man, I thought the name looked familiar. I'm there for the exact same reasons as you, it's a little easier coming in late, though I admit I'm later than usual. I forget to start these 5 hour ones early enough. I just can't be bothered with the hassle of the bunker at the moment (I wouldn't be playing it if it weren't for the track at rank 1), and I'm pretty inconsistent too right now.

    Have you received your Midnight Championship gift yet?
