I think it's gonna be a while before I get the Police car... # I currently have 52 000 in cash, the Police car is $450 000 to purchase. On average I am getting around 2500 per run.. It's gonna take a while... I'm considering the coin doubler, but I have to be honest my only gripe with the game is the cost of the IAPs. $8.99 for the doubler is the only one I see any value from, I could get the $38.00 one but that is only gonna get me either the Police car or the Porsche and I think that it's too much for just one vehicle. (I have spent real dollars on this very early on). Sorry I hate to complain because I genuinely love this game I've been playing since day one.. And the IAP pricing is my only issue, I'm ok with it being in the game, I think it's just too expensive, but I also understand that you need to make money. (Maybe I need to improve my runs to earn more)
I understand, this update was a bit oriented to the enthusiast players. As you know, this game has been live since 2 years now. There are so much players that collected all the cars plus 1 million cash spare to spend. The first version of Traffic Racer had only 5 cars. The best car was worth 40K cash. Now the number of cars has been increased to 27, so are the prices. So, the problem is, it's too hard to keep the enthusiasts alive while making everyone happy. I hope I will find a balance in the future.
There are two reasons for it to be expensive. First, the police mode is a bit hard to play compared to other game modes. So, you shouldn't access it early. Second, the police car gives 1 extra life in endless mode, which makes it the best car to make a record in endless. (previously it was the jeep)
It must be a hard balance to get right. Thanks for the response, I think I'll get the doubler and see how I go. #
Glad to see a new update! The new location looks great as do the new cars! Loading data from iCloud finally works for me, thanks for fixing this. I haven't been playing much and now I have a lot to catch up Some IAP prices seem a bit too high tough, like the cash doubler and the Ferrari. Maybe you're doing well as it is now (I hope you do), but I think $2.99 and $4.99 respectively would sound much more attractive, considering prices practiced by other games. I hope you're still considering adding some missions/challenges - for me they are a great incentive to keep playing a game, especially with endless runners/racers.
@hvianna, thanks for the feedback. You are right, but having seen that other big games are selling cars for similar prices, I wanted to give it a shot and see how it goes. For those who don't see the update yet, here it is: NEW LOCATION - Drive your car in the new beautiful rainy environment NEW CARS - Added 4 brand new cars to the collection OTHER - Improved the iCloud Drive support - Improved iOS 8.2+ support - Performance optimizations - Lots of other fixes and improvements
Have to agree about the IAP prices.. I never got the doubler, $8.99.. Is just too much for me.. At $2.99 or $4.99 I would not hesitate, and I'll never own the Ferrari at $18.99. I love this game, but do feel the prices are a bit too steep.
