This is to be fair to players so they always have the same chance of getting the best daily prizes, and it can result in the machine restarting at different times in the day. It is custom to each person.

    Finally, about changing the system clock, this can indeed have negative consequences as the game will detect this as an attempt to cheat, so I would not recommend doing this with your own game just for testing purposes.
    Well that explains the slot machine clock/countdown timer issue that I came across.

    Regarding actual payout, these also seem to be inline with what is expected. The numbers I've seen on this forum, and what we've investigated internally, so far look pretty good, and offering much more would weight the game so dramatically toward the slot machine that it would break the entire economy balance.
    Ok, let me make sure I get this right. I can't say for certain that my XP hasn't leveled up so I won't comment on that. BUT the rewards I unlocked when I hit level 16 are the same rewards I got when I leveled up at 3 or 4. I'll put money on it that when I hit level 17, it will most definitely be a reward that I unlocked at an earlier level.

    For Example,
    Single Gem Reward. Starts out at 1 gem and as you upgrade your slot machine, Single Gem Payouts increase from 1 to 2 Gems, then from 2 to 4 gems and so on.

    Re: V.1.2.0 review.

    I dont know what´s going on...
    Yesterday the single gem value = x3 gems. but today just one! also applied to all the other kind of rewards.

    Also...
    That msg is confusing!! shows that I won 5 Rarified Fuel Boosts and reward amount 1, what´s that? is the second time that I won that prize but on the previous one I won 5...
    Spoiler:  Show



    Sometimes the Slot Machine gets muted, and then on the track, the ending sounds and few other sound sources are also off.
    Also the bike have a sound glitch when it´s on an specific inclination.

    Looks like you activated the glitch again somehow. Do you know if you did any different that could have caused this? It's a bummer man and I feel for you. Welcome to my world

    Thats what I got with coin rewards only so far. My Small XP is back to 10

    I think it resets Back to Level One Rewards if you are veiwing the slot machine, aka watchin the timer go down when the screen turns off. I'd try backing out to the village lobby, town area, and then back out of the game.

    I'll try to get another video up to show whats happened.

    @TheSwanMan Hey man!! Can you explain explicitly how works the Slot Machine? You said that it seems to be working as expected but It's really confusing.

    Re: V.1.2.0 review.

    this is no longer (was it ever?) a racing game. its nothing but #randomness and trying to exploit kids with nonsense ingame basics any other game would include. free or not. frontier has failed and so far its devs show no sign of change in direction. bummer.


    hd and evo both gave the player the top bike within hours of gameplay. at the cost of a normal arcade title. frontier, the mobile title, requires many days, possibly weeks of continuous playing to obtain top bikes/ competitive bikes. even if you pay way more real cash than hd and evo combined. you have to understand the cryout, if not you truly have lost all your ethics.
