    This Week In TC2: October 27



    Gearheads,

    Uh-oh, did we take a wrong turn back there? We sure have ended up in a spooky part of town this week in The Crew 2. Let’s hope there aren’t any ghosts!

    NEW THEMED EVENTS



    There’s something strange happening in Street Race, with the new ghoulish PvE themed event, Scary Salem – coming October 28th.

    LOOT BOOSTS



    This week isn’t all about spooks and scares, though, we’ve also got some treats lined up for you all with freeroam and PVP boosts!

    • LIVE Reward density x 2
    • LIVE Reward spawn rate x 1.5
    • LIVE Reward loot quantity x 1.5
    • PVP Fame rewards x 1.5
    • PVP Weekly Reward = 6 rewards

    Please note that the LIVE Reward boosts only apply to crates found in freedrive, not to Skill or Event rewards.

    LIVE SUMMIT –  TRIP OR TREAT (OCTOBER 28 – NOVEMBER 04)

    Dare you brave the spooktacular LIVE Summit? Climb the leaderboard and you will be rewarded with the following treats:

    PLATINUM STARE FROM THE DARK TINT
    GOLD DODGE CHALLENGER SRT HELLCAT
    SILVER DODGE CHALLENGER SRT DEMON VISUAL PARTS
    BRONZE 300K FOLLOWERS

    You can find all the details on The Crew Hub



    As usual, we’ve got a LIVE Summit bundle running in tandem with all the vehicles you’ll need:

    • Volkswagen Kombi (1966) – Street Race
    • Frauscher 1414 Demon (2016) – Power Boat
    • Ducati Monster 1200 S (1969) – Rally Raid
    • PROTO Speedster (2018) – Hovercraft
    • Dodge Challenger SRT Demon (2018) – Street Race

    VEHICLE PROMOTION



    Every ghost hunter needs their very own ghost hunting Kombi, this week you’ll be able to find the Volkswagen Kombi Ghost Hunt Edition in the Far & Beyond store with added vanities. The stock version will also be available, purchasable in Bucks or Crew Credits.

    Ducati Monster 1200 S (1969) – Rally Raid


    But seriously, it's most likely 2015. How did this even happen?

    Looks
    Like it’ll be a fun event. I like the special edition cars we can buy or earn through races.

    The Trip Or Treat Live Summit serves as the final summit of the 5th batch. After that, there will be a re-run of past summits containing summit-exclusive cars.

    @Ubi-MrDrPink, can you guarantee that more players will get the opportunity to earn the summit-exclusive cars? I'm asking because staying at top 3000 just won't cut it. I'd like to see this increased to at least top 5000 for platinum finishers.

    what time does the double loot start? Im in AUS so its already the 28th but obviously not the case elsewhere. Does it start at the same time as the new summit is available?

    seems like they screwed the loot quality:

    This is the result of a *golden* loot box opened with a loot digger set (41% Goldfinder, 274,3% lucky), 479 affix points on lucky (95,8% increased) - not a single golden part.

    According to the announcement, the loot quality should be increased by 1,5. It seems to be reduced to 15% or less.

    After opening 5 crates (2 golden, 2 pink, 1 blue), my mailbox was full (so the number of items is ok), and I had 12 green parts, 22 blue parts, 22 pink parts, zero golden parts

    I’m getting mainly blue and green. Hope they rectify this.

    Like previous LIVE Summits, the platinum rewards will require players to finish in the top 3000 to unlock. Unfortunately, it's something we're not able to easily change. We know that this can be a pain point for players and it's something we are hoping to revisit at a later date.

    There is an on-going issue impacting the LIVE Rewards, and it's looking likely that we won't be able to rectify this problem until after the event is finished. We do apologise for inconvenience and we will do better next time

    It would be the best apology if the next week(s) the boosted items are given again - this week its worth nothing (in fact it is even anoying),
