Asphalt 8 is more than just multiplayer, my dude.

The reason why you ranted anyway is because of the multplayer tuning, right?

So all you have to do is find an element of the game that you would enjoy.

After all, you did mention your desire to tap into the potential of the cars in the game... well, some cars just don't have multiplayer potential.

It's just how it is.

As for me, I never really liked multiplayer... I just wanted to get all the cars i wanted.

But then I realized that playing multiplayer also gives rewards, as well as new opportunities to enjoy the game in different ways.

I decided to invest on some multiplayer-oriented cars by checking on the available data, as well as getting tips from Aphalt 8 Youtubers like Dr. Healusion, Elite Hector X, Isaac Sierra, THD1, ACG, etc...

In doing so, I discovered an Asphalt 8 online community, whereasbefore I just tried to strike it out on my own.

I made decisions that would factor greatly in my multiplayer gameplay, as opposed to how I played before when all I did was do casual races.

In discovering the online community, I learned which cars I would use for farming, which ones for multiplayer, which ones for TLEs... I also learned some techniques to improve my gameplay performance.

It was fun.

It's also fun to win.

It's also fun to make enough credits and tokens to buy the cars i wanted to buy.

I mean, GameLoft can be quite the money-grabber... but I have to give credit to them for making Asphalt 8 free-to-play.

It was fun just conversing with players online, discussing stuff about the game.

It was fun discussing with other guys on how to finish an R&D or a Championship for a car (e.g. it was quite the experience doing the Hommage R&D, with everyone trying to get tips, helping each other, giving each other advice, so they could get a decent multiplayer car like the Hommage).

I never spent any actual money...

I just followed the advise of the experts on how to farm... how to win an R&D/Championship event... how to tune a car... and all other things.

I just had fun.

The only real world reource I spent on the game is TIME.

...and so far, it's time well-spent.
