Classic is a game mode in Asphalt 8: Airborne. It is the first game mode encountered in Career mode.
Overview
Classic is the usual race mode, where the player races against a number of other racers (usually 5 or 7. In Quick Solo Race, the number of racers is always 8 but 24 in Metal Events) and tries to cross the finish line first. Classic is the most popular game mode in the Online World Series, and is the most popular game mode in time-limited events. Traffic is present whenever the race has 6 racers or less, and is usually disabled when there are 8 racers (traffic is always disabled on French Guiana and Sector 8, regardless of the number of racers). A few exceptions to this rule include all Career mode Classic races in Dubai.
Winning + Stars
Classic events grant 3 stars to the 1st-place racer, 2 stars to the 2nd-place racer, and 1 star to the 3rd-place racer. Additionally, there are two bonus stars. Most are simple, while the rest are difficult to obtain. Races 36 and 39 of Season 8 are notorious for setting up Gate Drift-like objectives in a Classic race, with total drift distances as high as 8500 yd and the other objective of No Wrecks.
Achievement
Winning a Classic event for the first time unlocks the Classic Win achievement.
