Level 24 ticket question

[HP]

o I've got my ticket but I don't know how to do the whole "so my ticket gave me a crap car so I'll unsave & do it again" thang... can anyone confirm how I do it or is it considered cheating & therefore taboo?

Just to clarify I'm no cheat so if it is considered cheating I'll just try my luck!

-Backup your game file on a USB stick from the XML

-Use ticket

-If you don't like the car, copy the saved game from the USB stick onto your PS3 (overwriting the one where you used the ticket)

-Use ticket again, and again, and again....

It's very much akin to duping and, in a word, cheating. It's like getting your coins back from a slot machine until you hit the target you wanted. That's just my opinion, many people who do this will defend this method to the grave.

IMO, it's just dumb. It's super easy to earn quick cash in this game, if you get a duplicate car, live with it and spend a couple hours earning the cash to buy the one you wanted.

Ahhhhhh if it's akin to duping then I'll try my luck like I've done with the others. I asked as its going to be my 2nd last ticket (not inc bday one) so I was curious.

Whilst we on topic: I had thought that maybe the PP of the car driven at time of winning ticket might have something to do with the reward? I always seem to get powerful cars & most of my tickets I used a FGT in final race, prob nothing tho... thoughts?

The best and ONLY method to get specific standard cars with 0/0. You just backup your savefile and load it again. Got absolutely nothing to do with cheating. Dumb? Yes, if you are rather spend a couple hours earning the cash for a standard car with 0/0 you can't buy in a any shop then you certainly not very smart...

Unknown, but the general consensus is that it's a completely random selection from the set group of cars the ticket is from.

I got the Ferarri F10 '10

Well level 24 ticket only has F10 '10, F2007 and the FGT, so it's a great ticket.

Though duping and cheating are unrelated?

Yes, the ticket thing is like duping, therefore it's not cheating and is fair game. Feel free to use the trick.

As for the prize car, it's random. I did some testing (there is a thread on it) and the results pointed to it just being random.

What?

It's a trick that isn't supposed to be done = cheat/glitch...call it whatever you want to.
If you cool with doing it, feel free. I'll give the advice just use it and live with the result.

It is & considering I already have the others it's a huge win!!
