No, not at all. That's why I did say its a good direction and a positive. I just question the validity of the starting point for the improvement, would the improved timers have still been considered good if they were the original settings is all I'm really saying.

The update mechanism should be familiar to anyone who has tapped out, it delivers the updates without using the app store where possible. The timers are far less brutal now, particularly for the starter cars which means you won't be spending days upon days grinding. This is definitely a start in terms of fixing the model employed.

Times are 1/3 of what they used to be. Complete service for my Focus RS is 2 hours and something. Before more than 6 hours. First step in right direction. I still miss option to buy game for 20 bucks or so. Leave repairing there. Its actualy great idea. I wish they add iap to buy whole game.

edit: Few facts from Australian store.
Game jumped to position 72 from 146 Top Grossing iPhone apps in less than day of, but reviews are getting worse.

Well at least we know they were listening. These timers are far more generous now

Still the same on mine. I had the last update with reduced wait times no probs. Not this one. Still waiting 20 secs or so for each

I was never really bothered by the damage repairs too much. It was those stupid service upgrades every 2 races that lasted 30 minutes or longer

I fail to see why everyone is not moving the clock forward. It's really easy to do and you can bypass any timer. Isn't it working for everyone?

Even though I've been cheated by the game I'm not a cheat

Well I don't see that as a "gameplay feature" so for me it isn't cheating. But I do get your point and I respect your decision

That will mess up other games with timers. My girl is playing happy street and pixel people and messing with the time severely screws up progress in that games.
