For rich only?

User Rating: 5 | Asphalt 8: Airborne PC

It was a pretty long ago as I started to play this game on an Android phone. Then I started to play on PC and for some reason, I couldn't play under same alias. Nevermind, I said, and began playing from the very start. It wasn't for long when I noticed that cars, upgrades, visuals etc... are so very expensive that you can't compete to that people with MONEY in their pockets. It seems that this is one game made for rich people only. At this point I have 62 cars. Some of them I probably couldn't obtain EVER, because I'm not planning to spend a fortune on a computer game. The game features some good vehicles and pretty nice tracks, but there are few discrepancies like vehicles that goes over 600km/h and when The Game decides that it's enough winning. The game itself is pretty good, except: for example, if you earn too many credits during the race, double credits option will not be available. Second, I dropped two classes in multiplayer because all of my cars became undriveable suddenly. Like, MAXed PROed Nissan GTR on a straight line suddenly crashes into a wall?!? Third, also considering multiplayer, I guess It's ok for others to knock you down, but if I knock somebody out I wouldn't expect for him to appear in front of me. Also, I got knocked down no less then five times in a row, last time when my car reappeared IN other car and get instantly knocked down. This also goes to resurrect car after a crash (any game mode) and car appears on the very same spot when I crashed. So I crashed again, and again, and again.... It took four times when game decided that this is not a good spot to reappear after a crash. Fourth, Patagonia. Really? Enough said. Fifth, after a motorcycle upgrade, I hurried to buy a Suzuki. Fine motorcycle and easy enough to drive. I'm not sure why I get "Free Try" option in Events since I own this bike already and it's tuned. Strange thing, when motorcycle races appeared, I finished first two seasons and started third, completed it to point when it said Motorcycle needed, and now this season don't exist anymore... I also tried KTM in Research and Development and get disappointed AGAIN. Lab two, upgraded motorcycle (I must be crazy to tune bike that I do not own, you must think), Nitro starter and Tuning kit, no crashes and I can't pass the finish line under 2:18:00?? I already gave up on any R&D gameplay because I don't have enough credits to invest in vehicles I don't own and probably will not own ever, because there are people with enough money to buy credits and tokens to have better vehicles. Not to mention VIP status and prizes you get when you SPEND MONEY. Nice graphics, nice vehicles, nice tracks, but half product made for rich to make others rich. Play only for amusement and fun.
