Hello, guys!
The Gauntlet will be taken down shortly to fix some of the bugs.
Let me give you a bit of clarification in regards to gauntlet mode.
- Player has to own 5 cars to enter the Gauntlet.
-To participate in qualification race (QR), player has to choose a deck of any 5 cars he owns. Different cars could be selected each time Player wants to improve his time.
-Player has a one free attempt to set the time on his home track. After that, each next race to improve the result requires a ticket.
-The race is a tag-racing with selected cars. Player's best Ghost on the home track should be saved until season ends.
Leagues Distribution- In each season player is assigned to the specific league based on his best cars rank.
- League can't be changed until the next season.
League bracketsGarage score (GS) = best team score, sum of players top 5 cars ranks.
Rank from Tuning Kit doesn't count.
League 1: 9000 < GS
League 2: 8000 < GS ≤ 9000
League 3: 7000 < GS ≤ 8000
League 4: 6000< GS ≤ 7000
League 5: GS ≤ 6000
Challenge (active gameplay)Challenging an opponent, player tries to beat the ghost set by the opponent on his home track during QR. Beating the ghost adds rank. If player lost to the ghost - rank decreases.
When challenging, the player receives a selective set of opponents with a similar rating (up to 5 opponents, the set should include players with both lower and higher rating, but approximately within the player's own performance indicators) and a home track different from his own (player cannot attack opponents with the similar home track).
To challenge someone player have to choose one of the opponents from the set.
If player doesn't like the set for some reason, he can reroll it to receive more suitable opponents. Reroll is a free option with a cooldown.
Each race is paid with a ticket (both successful or not)
Each challenge race grants standard credit rewards for Medals
Player will also get a daily challenge reward for several challenges (both successful or not)
Any race in which the player hasn't reached race result screen (left) is counted as a loss and takes the corresponding number of rating points away
When an opponent is selected player should beat the ghost set by the opponent on his home track.
Defense (passive gameplay)"Defense" - someone tries to beat your ghost.
Defensing player gets rating if someone has lost to his ghost, and loses rating if someone has beaten player's time.
To "protect" himself from attacks player can improve the time set on his home track during the season (with a cost of the Ticket) by replaying QR.
Player can take the same set of cars that he used in QR, or another one
Each defense race costs a ticket.
Player's rating doesn't change with QR races
If player didn't beat his time, the best ghost remains.
RevengeIf player was challenged and defeated, he has the possibility to punish the attacker in response.
By pressing the "Revenge" button in the history of challenges player goes to the attacker's home track and tries to beat the last recorded ghost the attacker had set
Revenge could be performed only once, regardless of its outcome
After the player has avenged the attacker, he cannot be avenged with the same attacker in return.
Rating points should be added or subtracted according to the standard scheme.
TicketsEach race in Gauntlet except the first one is paid with a special Ticket.
The number of tickets is limited per day.
After the player runs out of Tickets, he can:
Win Bonus Tickets in another events as a reward;
Wait for the Tickets refill.
If player leaves the race, the spent ticket will not be returned.
Tickets refillThe total number of free tickets refills every day.
Player can also win bonus tickets as items in different activities.
There is a timer that shows the time until the next tickets refill.
Bonus ticketsPlayer can get Bonus Tickets in other ingame activities.
Bonus tickets will be shown in the Gauntlet only, and have to be reset when new season starts. Bonus Tickets are shown as separate counter from free tickets.
During the Gauntlet season, player will use regular tickets first, and bonus tickets afterwards if they want
Bonus tickets (Golden Gauntlet Tickets) could set as reward in:
- Milestone Ads Lottery (milestone reward)
- Bundles in the shop
- Festival reward
- TLE reward
- Multiplayer reward
I can answer a few more question in regards to gauntlet if needed.
For now Android is out for 50% of the player base (it's always been like this).
When I'll receive a new email about the update being out, I'll let you all know.
No sign of Windows platform for now.
