Bugs/Glitches[]

  • The following bugs/glitches have been fixed:
    • Car Hunt tutorial triggered for first-time entries.
    • Removed notification dot on the Sets section after purchasing the featured item.
    • Fixed an issue with hints on bundles disappeared when scrolling with a controller.
    • Fixed collision issues for Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder with most avatars.
    • Fixed a missing text for Gauntlet Tickets in World Series and Gauntlet Stores.
    • Fixed a progressive Ad icon display in the Main Menu section for new players.
    • Fixed a synchronization error after multiplayer events race if there is no active Season Pass.
  • Incorrect Decal Colors: A large number of decals had their color palettes swapped. This is most noticeable on ones that use red, yellow, or orange which now appear blue. By quickly swapping to another bugged decal, it is possible to briefly see the original colors of the second decal.
  • Glitched Banners: The following cars have had their banners glitched out:
  • Wrong Banners: The following cars are depicted with the wrong banner:
  • Cheaterboard issue: After updating the game, some players reported being sent to the Cheaterboard by just participating in a race.
    • It is recommended that the player should not participate in a race when any of the booster's timer is close to 0s, or else the server will treat it as a cheat, thus result in the player being sent to Cheaterboard, unless the player actually used any cheat engines.
      • Another cause that could have trigger this bug is when the player has a low internet connection, resulted in unstable connection or delayed between the player's device and Gameloft's server.
    • To be able to return to the normal leaderboard, the player first has to wait for 24 hours from the moment the player was sent to the cheaterboard. During this period, it is advised that the player should not open the game. After that, simply plays the affected event one more time.
      • Another quicker method is to do the following:
        • After being sent to the Cheaterboard, play a Special Event race in any stages.
        • After finishing the Special Event race, close and reopen the game.
        • Simply play the affected event one more time.
  • Game crash issues:
    • On October 13, some players reported the loading screen being stuck midway, thus unable to enter the game.
      • A work-around is to restart the game.
      • This was fixed on October 14.
    • Other players have reported that attempting to play a Gauntlet or Multiplayer race would result in a game crash.
  • If the player swiped or scrolled the season page in Career mode quick enough, the text that displays the season name would be disappeared until the player exits the mode or enters any races in any season pages.
  • If the player attempt to re-enter a race using the replay button, sometimes the credit-rewarded screen and/or the Multi Credits-rewarded screen would be glitched out.
