    Picked this up today, hopefully my 3m credits are still there. I think it said I had 30 days to claim them or whatever. Any advice on getting the most for my money? I haven't even played it yet so I have no idea how far it will go.

    I'll be punting people left and right for the first few days :o

    I still remember one of the league races I did dozens of practice laps preparing so I could be competitive, and sure enough I still punted jms way off the track in turn 1. I felt really bad for a minute or two.
    Make sure you go into your messages...I think you need to download your rewards.

      I did get the 3m credits. I bought Ryan Hunter-Reay's Dallara IndyCar, but I am going to save the rest of my credits until I get a better feel for the game.

      Is there any way to tell what class of car is eligible for the different leagues? I don't want to upgrade my C class car to a B and then it isn't eligible for said series anymore.

            So I was playing the career today when it hit me. Is there even a point to it other than achievements? It is extremely bland

              These drivatars are starting to make the single player very un-enjoyable. All they fucking do is ram everyone on track and divebomb every single corner. Sim-racing is just as much about clean racing as anything else. Driving against AI cars may have been boring, but at least they didn't do this shit all race. It's like trying to race in an open lobby.

                Turn up the difficulty and they will help...but as I said before the races then are not long enough. Micro transactions are not the issue people should be worried about with this game.

                  The whole clipping grass and slowing down to 25mph is really annoying.

                    I'm already on Pro. Unbeatable would be too tough. I dunno. Maybe I'm just stuck with a bad batch of random drivatars tonight.

                      Yeah Pro should be okay but with 3-4 laps there is almost no way to get to first place in time without bumping unless you got a killer tuned car. Game was always about racing with friends for me...career is a drag.

                            Slow down when people crash in front of you.

                                If you prefer the arcade style, play NFS. I've heard good things about it.
