Well...

Play Asphalt 6. That was one of the last good Asphalt games. If you DO like A8, I personally don't care and I'm fine with you liking the game. I just don't see a reason TO like the game in terms of gameplay and enjoyment value compared to A6.

If you want to see a Free to Play (legitimate free to pay game) game done right, then check out Assoluto Racing. It is grindy, but at least I can find a lot of enjoyment in that game contending for WRs... and because in the Unmodified series everyone is given the exact same car and conditions, it makes for a much fairer game. I'm not against ALL free-to-play games (Smash Bandits also does the F2P thing right as well). It's just that A8 has done it wrong. Play all three games listed above and then we can have some meaningful discussion.
