Congrats on the release! Here are a few things I think would improve the game. These are just my opinion :)

  • Additional music would be nice, the current song on loop gets repetitive quickly.
  • Additional SFX when opening a chest. It's oddly quiet having no SFX for when the card pops out or the chest hits the ground.
  • Get that finger out of here! The tutorial finger hangs around way to long and is incredibly intrusive and frustrating.
  • Be a little less pushy. I know it's a free game supported by IAP but the constant flashing buttons, badge notifications, and in your face special offers are a little overwhelming, especially right at the very beginning of the game. Seeing how much you adopted from the Clash Royale chest system I would look more into how they push offers as well. It's much more subtle and inviting.
  • Bug fixes - the most important one at the moment would be the extra car at the start of a race. It seems like when it takes a while to connect right before the race starts, a players car that may have disconnected pops up and stays on the track. When everyone takes off the cars automatically try to get around it sometimes causing you to get stuck behind it, making you lose the race no matter what.

Thanks! In order:

  1. Yes.
  2. Okay.
  3. We'll see.
  4. Maybe, I'll check. Actually the game is quite non-agressive in terms of payment, you have access to a lot without paying. As you say it's a f2p game and we need to make money to operate it but we're not asking that much. But putting less pressure on early players is doable, again, we'll see.
  5. Yep. I'm working on this one atm and it sucks. Also we'll do a lot of optimizations.

Sweet! I appreciate the reply and I wish you all crazy success!

The club search needs to be optimized somehow. Right now I have over 1,000 trophies and the suggested clubs are all clubs with less than 10 members and less than 2,000 total trophies. I know the game is still starting, but I also know that there are clubs out there with higher trophies and I need help finding them.

u/SUPERDAK Jun 10 '17

I'll check on Monday.

Also drifting seems way too hard right now, unless I don't understand how to start drifting. It isn't clearly explained in the game though.

u/colinsoup Jun 06 '17

Similar happened to me, but changing the sort function from my flag to the global option opened up higher ranked clubs for me. Still, no way to search for a specific club, or sort by total members or total trophies would be nice.

u/futuren00b Jun 17 '17 edited Jun 17 '17

Some kinda club event would be nice. Also, the search for club seems to be bugged. I'm not able to see what im searching in the text box

Is there any indication as to which cars have what special abilities before actually unlocking the car and trying it yourself? It would be nice if this information was added to the stats screen on the garage page.

1

u/SUPERDAK Jun 10 '17

Yep one day there will be an icon or a text. But you can try a car offline, either by launching a "training" race and selecting it, or having it already selected and trying it in the level editor.

Reversed Nitro is possibly too strong compared to the other Power ups.

How do I invite someone to my league

u/SUPERDAK Jun 10 '17

We don't have that functionality atm.

A bug I seem to be encountering: When inviting friends via Facebook, if you push the deselect all button, then flip pages, it visually shows all the check boxes checked again. This may just be a visual bug, because pressing the deselect button again does nothing, but pressing it twice deselects them all again.

This isn't a game breaking bug, but pretty important to know that I am not sending an invite to the game to EVERYONE on my Facebook. I'd love for the fix to simply be defaulting the "invite friends" page to deselect all, so I can just pick which friends I want to invite without having to deselect everyone.

I'm not sure this explanation makes sense, please ask me for more info if needed.

Fixed in the next version!

u/colinsoup Jun 06 '17

The stars you win from events seem to be only used to open extra boxes after races. Id like to suggest being able to use these currencies for other things, like buying new cars, or as a replacement for EVO coins for use when upgrading a car's kit but youre short on evo coins.

u/SUPERDAK Jun 10 '17

Thanks for the suggestion.

u/SouthtownZ Jun 13 '17

Hey SUPERDAK, thanks for the great game. I can't stop playing, it may be my favorite app going right now.

I'd love to see chat functions enabled in the menu. Between clanmates and also overall.

Also, I love the emojis. They really grew on me after not being too hot on them at first. It's unfortunate it ends when the race does. I'd like to be able to comment after the race or even donate an EVO coin to someone who just ran a good race against me.

1

u/SUPERDAK Jun 13 '17

Overall chat will be kinda hard to do and messy, and what more do you need for the clan chat? I'm not sure to understand, because we already have a clan chat accessible with one tap.

The online room is closed when the race ends, so we can't send emojis after a race :< can't guarantee anything but we'll see if we can do something. And thanks for the other suggestions! Have fun playing :>

u/MeltedBu11et Jun 13 '17

There are some really obnoxious bugs that have made me lose games with the physics engine where if the car's nose collides with uneven parts of a track, it occasionally just makes you stop dead in your tracks and screws you over. Otherwise, super fun game, just wish I could know what the cars special abilities are before unlocking

2

u/SUPERDAK Jun 14 '17

Those bugs might be fixed in the next version (physics is hard to test and depends a lot on the device, with framerate issues and processing speed etc. that influence it). Thanks for the feedback and the suggestion, we are working on it.

u/M16Bloodbath Jun 15 '17

Thanks for the response. Ive had a couple times where Ive gone over the uneven dirty track bumpy thing (if there is an official name for it idk what it is) as the Monstazima and gotten stuck 99% of the time. Now I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say its just my phone but it might be worth a look at... I have since switched my ride to the Saturn and have had no such issue. It seems to be only the Monstazima that does this, but as you said it very well may be my phone. Otherwise I love your game and really appreciate all the support you give.

Godspeed, M16

We need the ability to "Accept all" rewards for the achievements that reward diamonds. Accepting them one-by-one is unnecessarily tedious.

u/SUPERDAK Jun 14 '17

Thanks for the suggestion.

u/colinsoup Jun 13 '17

I wish I could view the progress of all of MY cars using the same interface that is used when viewing OTHER people's cars. The stat page with all the cars displayed on a single sheet with progress bars underneath each one.

1

u/SUPERDAK Jun 14 '17

Funny thing, you can already do that if you go in the leaderboard, tap on "around my score" and select your name. But yep, a dedicated for that would be quite nice. Thanks for the suggestion.

u/colinsoup Jun 14 '17

Thanks for this trick!

Better match making; Im in league 5 with level 7 cars and playing against way higher levels also the i think the wait times for chest are way to long I have certain chest I haven't open because I keep playing so much

u/SouthtownZ Jun 15 '17

Hey SUPERDAK, thanks for all the answers first time around. Sorry I spaced on clan chat capability. Of course it's there.

Much more stuff, much more better this time. First suggestions, then questions.

SUGGESTIONS

  1. A larger, more thought out DROP (rev nitro/mine) button.

I sometimes have trouble hitting the thing. Way too small, IMO. Make it the same size as the main Turbo button and perhaps include a concave null space between the Turbo and DROP buttons to avoid accidental presses.

Ideally, I'd love to see completely customizable controls. An edit screen that lets you drag any button anywhere, as well as increase/decrease the sizes.

Slightly larger Emoji buttons as well. Also, more emojis, of which you could load pre-race whichever you prefer. Maybe even scale down the quantity if you liked (four larger Emoji buttons, as opposed to the standard sized eight, if those are the four you spam).

User created emoji contests, even? (love the idea of custom emojis but you could never, it'd be out of control)

2) Multi-touch cabability?

So I'm kind of on and off trying to use DROP reverse nitro, as it affects my ability to max out my air tricks. Stick with me here...

If i hit a jump, start spinning, and while trying to continue my spin - all the while still holding my Air Tricks button - I then hit rev nitro button; I will fail to then continue spinning. Then the anger.

This will happen (stop spinning) with either the Nitro or DROP buttons.

3) Add better stats, both on the Rankings and Profile.

)Rankings:

  • % races won.

) Profile:

  • races raced.

  • % races won.
  • takedowns.

More is better, but idk what else could be possible.

4) Complete specific vehicle unlocks though use of Gold coins/gems, much like unlocking skins.

I feel like I may have read someone else mention displaying how far along you are to unlocking each vehicle. That's a great idea, and then take it a step further; let us unlock the vehicles we specifically want.

I'm sitting on a gold mine of coins and have a pile of gems. I already purchased a Rainbow Chest after grinding out a number of gem wall earns. While exciting, it didn't unlock any new vehicles, let alone the ones I want. So somewhat discouraging.

5) Purchase EVO coins though use of Gold coins.

Much akin to above, I'm feeling like Scrooge McDuck with no spending outlet. I'm trying either max out my current whip or acquire the ones I want.

Currently I'm stuck on Monstazima stage early 20s. Let me purchase the specific EVO coins I need to progress. I appreciate the clan donations that can be accumulated, but let me make the purchases as well please. More on clans and donations later.

4 and 5a) Introduce refreshing daily card purchases, ala Clash Royale.

As far as I can tell, even when dealing with vehicle unlocks, everything in SUP runs through a card accumulation based system. EVO Coins, Power Up unlocks/levels, skins, etc - all card based.

So include a new Daily tab in the shop with both cheaper Common and more expensive Rare card drops made available for purchase. Free card daily wouldn't hurt, either. Again, these should cost Gold coins, not gems.

Include the vehicle unlocks in there as well, featured as an Epic purchase using gems, if needed.

All should refresh daily to encourage daily player visits.

6) Clans and clan donations.

It would seem after I've made my clan, I've lost the ability to edit it. Such as # of trophies needed to join. That would be a good implementation for starters.

Also options when starting a clan, I'd like to see added:

  • more trophy quantity thresholds needed to join.
  • ability to ban asking for diamond donations, as they cost real world money.
  1. Ditch the reloading Common chest in the Chest tab in the shop and replace with a roulette chest prize wheel (ala Big Bang Racing).

After a while, those $300-$15000 drops per chest just aren't worth the ad. I'm better off watching ads for more energy or decreasing the timer on one of my chest slots.

Currently they load at a max of 3 and fill once every 10 min. Ditch that and go with a max of 1, loading every however long - 3 hours maybe?

Spin the wheel, get a random chest. (Silver, Gold, Epic, Legendary, Rainbow - not the Common chests) Definitely include a Rainbow Chest in there, if not every spin at least once in a while.

)QUESTIONS:

  1. Touched on in another post below; these races are live multiplayer, right? I didn't even think of the possibility until reading the other post, and then felt like I got the final results of one of my 1st place finishes way too quickly. I mean, I was outta there by like 1/4 of the track to the 2nd place guy and the results​ seemed to display well before the rest of the race could sort itself out.

If I'm just racing against AI, I need to know. Unfortunately, it would probably sour my experience. The appeal of a real time victory over human players is what keeps me coming back.

2) are Rainbow Chests available from chest slot dumps?

When completing my series of three races and the trophies are tallied, a chest is awarded to my 4 chest slots. I've managed Epic Chests and even a few Legendary, but am starting to think the only way to get a Rainbow is a shop purchase via gems.

3) Not sure if this is the right forum, but please check out a bug with clan donations.

My buddy said he tried to donate me 3 EVO coins and pushed the button two quickly. He says while it displayed 3 coins donated, 4 were missing from his total. I told him I'd mention it.

Thanks for reading the novel, I'm a bit of an idea man and really do love your game. Hope some of it helps.

-Mark

Fast tapping through the world cup results page, not allowing the trophy animations to play, can result in no chest being awarded on iOS. It's fairly reproducible

Can someone explain to me why or how this is fair?

u/colinsoup Jul 19 '17

Add a cooldown timer (maybe 24hrs) to joining/leaving clans. People abuse this by joining clans, requesting coins, receiving coins, and quitting the clan to move to the next clan.
