Bugs / Glitches
- No Hot Wheels Events: Despite having a Mastery icon in the garage, the Hot Wheels cars do not have Car Mastery or Season 9 events.
- No Blueprints from 14 Day Login Giveaway: Numerous players have reported that they have not received Blueprint boxes from the 14 day BMW M2 giveaway.
- A possible solution is to wait at the main menu for the game to synchronize with the server
- 60 FPS time advantage: For iPhone X users, the increased frame rate means that faster lap times can be achieved even if there are no changes in the player's driving style. This was fixed in an update on December 18, 2017.
- Free McLaren P1™ GTR: For a few minutes on December 27, 2017, many players were able to purchase a McLaren P1™ GTR for 0 shortly after the start of its limited-time discount period (December 27-30, 2017); players who did not encounter this bug saw a discounted price of 2,400,000. The discounted price for the P1™ GTR was thereafter corrected to 2,700,000 for all players.
- Motorcycles knockdown glitch: Should the player knock down a motorcycle AI with a bike on the rear wheel without the nitro triggered, the knockdown counter keeps increasing for a period of time. This glitch was fixed in the Fall Out Boy Update.
The following bugs/glitches have been fixed:
- No "Synchronizing Data / Synchronization Complete" in R&D
- Card Box Glitch-Some players may receive card boxes they did or did not purchase. This occurred when purchasing an upgrade with Tokens, then restarting Asphalt 8. It is unknown why this glitch worked
- Game crashes on Android
Post-Update Screen
Trailer
Trivia
- This update marks the firsts of the following:
- The first to add toy-based vehicles.
- The first since the Porsche Update not to show the entire lineup of new special events on the post-update screens.
- The first since the Motorcycles Update to add vehicles which are not blueprint-buildable.
- The first since the Car Blueprints Update to add vehicles whose special events do not give blueprints for building them. In this case, Hot Wheels cars & Renault Trezor are awarded only after completing all Grand Finale races of their Championships.
- The first since the Daily Bonus Update to add a Pagani car.
- Currently, Pagani has the longest gap for a model to be added in the game, after the Pagani Huayra in the Daily Bonus Update within 23 updates, 4 years and 1 month.
- The first since the Championship Update to add a BMW vehicle.
- This now makes BMW as the first manufacturer in the game to contain both cars and motorcycles.
- The first and only update in 2017 to add a new electric car.
- The first since the Lunar New Year 2017 Update to have a car postponed from its previous update.
- The first since the Multiplayer League Update to add an electric vehicle.
- This update marks the final update of 2017.
- This is the second since the Motorcycles Update to neither have any new Enduro Double Down events nor any Elite Vehicles.
- This is the second update to add fictional vehicles based on a different type of entertainment, namely toy-based vehicles produced by Hot Wheels. The first was the preceding Munich Update which added a film-based (Despicable Me 3) fictional vehicle produced by Universal Pictures.
- This is the second update since the Lunar New Year 2017 update to add a Renault car.
- Players have reported obtaining Blueprints for the Yamaha FZ-10 and BMW M2 Special Edition. As these were not announced by Gameloft, it is likely both were still undergoing testing and meant for a future update.
- These were eventually revealed to be for the Lunar New Year 2018 Update
