NAVIGATION IMPROVEMENTS

Starting with this update, you'll notice some improvements we've made to the game. We're introducing an Inventory icon to help you manage your items more easily, and we're reintroducing the VIP icon to help you access your VIP Bonuses. We hope you enjoy the changes!

This update also brings more issues to Asphalt 8 such as EXTREME costs to upgrade special event vehicles, a HUGE change to Mastery rewards and farming, credit reward changes, and rank changes and reshuffling of vehicles. Many petitions were made, but it looks as if they are not going to fix it. Gameloft looks to be trying to kill off Asphalt 8 to get more people to play Asphalt 9 (Strongly suggest not downloading it. It sucks!)

INVENTORY REWORK

We're making significant improvements to the way our inventory system works! Navigating the inventory is much easier, and it's better structured to help you find what you're looking for.

Gameloft also made a literal TON of negative changes to the whole game. Among those include rank changes for many cars, some increasing almost 400 points (Audi R8 e-tron SE), MUCH MORE cards, engines, and tech cards for PRO kits, increased MAX upgrades, MUCH harder R&D events that require TWICE the Quality Checks (even in Lab.001!!!), as well as the deletion of nearly every way to get blueprints. But most recently, and the most aggravating, they got rid of every single way to get multiplayer tickets. The only way you can get them is daily rewards. All 15 of them. Some of us would rather grind multiplayer for a while so we can get the use of the extra tank that costs an astronomical 200 tokens and only lasts 4 hours. I am really upset that Gameloft took away almost every way to get multiplayer tickets. I would start a petition to make them come back, but I don't have enough of a fan base to do so, and I don't really want to talk to other Asphalt 8 YouTubers about it. Gameloft is really trying to shut Asphalt 8 down, and they are doing so much damage to a great game. Asphalt 9 is really horrible as it is really hard to upgrade cars, its hard to understand their ranks, races are too short, the controls and game play is way overwhelming, and you get barely any rewards for completing races. Some of us also can't run Asphalt 9 on our phones because they aren't compatible, or the phone has a tough time running it. Asphalt 8 has over 350 million downloads in the world, which is a lot of people, and by them driving this game into the ground, that is really hurting revenue within the company! This game is so great and so awesome that I would really hate to see it go. I had high hopes for Asphalt 9, but I was extremely disappointed. Gameloft, please fix Asphalt 8 because you're doing nothing but losing fans. I quit Asphalt 8 for a while because you made it so damn hard to progress through the game. So do us and 350 million people a favor, don't do any more damage!!!
