Not gut

Destroyed their own game
I used to play this game years ago and really enjoyed. Now it seems like there’s an add every few minutes, and everything else is just pay to play. I have zero ability to actually enjoy the game because half of it is just money grabbing disruptions. Miss the days when it was just “watch a 30 second add to double your earnings” after a race.
Trash
This game only makes us to use tokens instead of credits just for cars and motorcycles 😭✌️
Ads ruined
This game used to be a blast, unavoidable ads ruined it now. Nothing will get me off a game quicker than constant ads. Bring back old Asphalt
@lets explore 2024
IT WONT LOAD I waited forever and it didn’t load
Advertisement scam
Just downloaded this game after years of not playing, not only did I lose all my cars and progress but the game now has advertisements.
Issues is not starting over, it’s the advertising to get more coin, they don’t credit your account. Multiple times now I go through an entire advertisement and it takes me to the same screen to watch another with no way out to gain my coins.
Fix the scam, I am deleting again maybe you will fix your game before I come back. I would rather not have advertising and pay a few bucks a year.

money
to expensive
Awesome game. The Ads kill the experience
What the title says.
Terrible
Terrible app pirod
🤬
Le partieron la madre al ponerle anuncios 🤬😡
Fun killing and frustrating ads
The ads are too much for you to enjoy the wonderful game
Pay to win
Free starter cars are too slow to compete with upgraded multiplayer cars
• If you don’t place well, you don’t get good rewards
• Without rewards, you can’t upgrade or buy better cars and the campaign gives you nothing to buy or upgrade cars so placing high in multiplayer is the only way to earn tokens to buy cars and only way to earn fusion coins to upgrade cars so 4 a new player you are literally forced to either spend money or just not play great game that was ruined by greed

Gangstar rio
Hello Gameloft Team,
I’m a big fan of Gangstar Rio: City of Saints, and I wanted to share an idea that could benefit both fans and Gameloft.
If you updated the game to run on modern iOS (64-bit), without changing anything else - keeping the map, missions, vehicles, weapons, motors, and even the classic low FPS and graphics - it would allow longtime players to enjoy the game exactly as they remember.
At the same time, this could be a profitable opportunity through optional in-app purchases or ads, while requiring minimal changes to the original game.
I hope you consider this idea and give fans a chance to relive the classic experience.
Thank you for your time

Won’t Save Your Purchases or Progress, Don’t Waste Your Time or Money
I have played Asphalt 8 & 9 and spent many hours collecting cars and upgrading them. I haven’t played for a year or so now as I have been busy with work and school. I recently downloaded this game to play it with my girlfriend only to find out all my save data had been deleted. I went on Reddit and this is a very common problem. I reached out to the customer service bot and was told there was nothing that could be done, no representative reached out or anything. So don’t play any Gameloft game or buy anything from them because if you don’t log in constantly to check your account they will just delete all your stuff and you won’t be able to get it back. I’m going to make sure I tell all my friends to stay far away from their games!!
They add ads which ruined gameplay do not download
Draft responses slow on turns game is too expensive most players have bought better upgrades can't compete with people who spend that much money on this game or maybe hackers still good graphics anyway I still play every now and thenthat's why I give it three stars it's funbut I'll probably never own one of the good cars 😥 too many ads
Only adds for king shot
Can’t play the game because every 5th click I get an add for king shot, I thought I was gonna play asphalt and not king shot.
购买/社交/卡片升级
更新后没有社交了？无法兑换卡片升级，无法购买无法改命？Are you serious GL ? please
Customer service suck
Had to delete my game and reload now have lost all the stars I have earned and am in negative coins and container service won’t even answer my emails. Have spent hundreds of dollars and they just would rather ignore me than fix the problem!
Tell
It is not worth I’m not playing
A shell of what it used to be
Every ounce of charm this game once had has been replaced with micro transactions and ads. This game had so much potential and was at one time a joy to progress through. Now it has become unplayable as to progress beyond season two you must either watch an ungodly amount of ads or spend money to get a new car. Only a handful of cars, all D class, can be acquired through the currency given by playing the game. The company behind this game should be ashamed of what they have done. I wish for all of your soups to be too hot and burn your mouth so that the rest of the meal is ruined from your burnt taste buds, just as you’ve burnt and ruined a once great game.
改的太烂了都别玩了吧
以前我是玩a8开智的，现在倒好，天天看广告，不如去玩AL
Hints TOOOOO Long time wise
Please shorten time giving “hints”
App crashes often
The app crashes often at different points of a race. It crashes right after you press the button to race, or as it gets ready to start the race, if you wreck, or right before you pass the finish line. I’d like to report it in the customer care screen but that crashes every time you try to type something into it.
Bring back the old version
Still fun but there are too many ads and every car costs tokens that you can only get with real money which takes the fun out of the game. I miss the olden days.
2 star
Whenever your in a race it always puts you in the back of the line.
Used to be fantastic.
I used to play Asphalt 8 from 2018 to around 2020-21, then I lost my old account so I hadn’t played again until recently and oh boy has it become so much like other money grab games. While in the past I had maybe spent 5 dollars in the game total, because there was some event, and that was a ONE TIME THING yet I had so many great cars that I won just from racing and interacting with the gameplay. That just doesn’t seem possible now, the events let you win D class cars and now you can’t buy good cars with credits at all? Ashphalt has changed for the worst and it’s no longer enjoyable.
