I didn't get the followers either. Wasn't paying attention for the money.
Okay, did it on another account and did the events in a different order. Did the drift event first, and after restarting the game, didn't get the followers. Then did the other events, did the drag event last, and after the restart after the error for the drag event, I got the followers from the drift event!

Maybe it works on PC or for some users. I followed exactly the same steps as you on a fresh account and didn't get neither the followers from the drift nor the money for the drag event. It's not a big deal anyway, just curious if I missed it somehow or not.

Okay, you're right, I see what was happening now. I was getting the 200k followers from the Ferrari event but only seeing them after the menu put me back at the profile after restarting.
 
I didn't get Followers or the cash from the broken summit events (just a completion tick).

What's more irritating though is I FINALLY got a "Perfect Run" in the Drag Race but because it doesn't save it, I didn't get the Hobby unlocked either :( :banghead:

That sucks. But than you got a perfect run without even trying. I still haven't got one despite trying many many times. 😭

Anyway, if you have some time today try again that escape skill. I don't know which way you took (can't see your ghost) but if you take the East route (turn right instead of going straight for San Fran) you can get 100-120k easily. It would be a shame if you missed the car by a few points.
 
Now that I finished recreating the Faction Missions from TC1, I'm now working on the PVP races. Almost done with the Street events already (they're really short)
 
I can't play The Crew 2 at the moment, as there was some sort of tiny update on Wednesday that has made the game crash whenever I try to run it.

I love the Crew games but I'm getting really fed up of this Ubisoft nonsense. Rainbow Six Siege is garbage. I bought The Division 2 when it was on sale, and it just crashes all the time. We had the recent problem where Motorfest was unplayable because it couldn't verify ownership for Steam players. And now The Crew 2 just won't run at all. There is no other games publisher whose games have these problems.

Even Xbox games, where Forza Motorsport, for example, appears to have been written primarily for console and ported to PC, and as a result it's bad, very bad, on PC, but it's not the level of complete garbage that Ubisoft's stuff is.

I also play a game called Mechabellum, made by a small indie developer, and the quality of their work is sky high by comparison.

I think you're playing on PC, but just to confirm I played TC2 on my Series S today (using cloud gaming) without any issues.

Didn't we get the same sort of issue a few months back on MF ? i remember my ps5 getting a minor update that the server didn't recognise :crazy:

Yes, so I'm playing on Steam, and I suspect the whole Steam and Ubisoft account linking, and the fact I'm playing on multiple accounts, combined with bugs, might be causing the problem.

I still managed to do the Summit on 4 accounts last week, and have done it on 3 accounts this week. But it seems completely random whether it runs up without crashing or not. Most of the time it crashes, but sometimes I manage to get it to run up, but if I try it again doing the thing I tried before it worked, it doesn't work.

As an example of a bug - if I am on account A on Steam, but Ubisoft is logged in with account B, rather than the one linked to A, sometimes it refuses to run up, flagging an account problem, but other times it just runs up, and when it does that, it copies all the achievements across between the two accounts!

Ah, I only play on one account, so wouldn't encounter any of these issues anyway. Sounds like that is causing your problems.

PS I am not a big fan generally of multiple accounts on the Summit (couldnt care less about the rest of the game) as that makes it harder to get Platinum, although as you're on PC and I'm on Xbox you don't affect me personally.

The game doesn't support Steam family sharing, so I've bought each copy of the game separately, so I'm really no different to there just being extra players. The TC2 summit is getting pretty uncompetitive now on PC, platinum is top 4000 and there don't seem to be that many more than 4000 people doing the summit. I'm probably helping to keep it at 4000 rather than being lowered!

The TC2 Summits over the next 3 weeks are pretty amazing - we have optimal boosted sets for drag race and powerboat, plus the Fender Charcoal.

Well, I cant argue with the fact that you have paid for each copy separately. Hopefully you bought most when the game was $1 .

I am likely to miss next week unless I can squeeze it in on the Tuesday night along with TCM.

I noticed that the limited time photo challenge is highlighted on the TC2 main screen this week, so there's at least some server side activity going on still. Long may the Summits continue!

I am still plodding on doing Hobby challenges bit by bit and am now working through the Touring Car events on hard and ace, which is going to take forever 😅

I haven't paid full price for any of them, but they were more than the $1 special offer price. I've been happy to "donate" more money to them, but the unbelievably awful support responses I'm getting to my ticket about the crashing problem is starting to make me regret that. Like, after quite a lot of information given to them, they suggest I try turning vsync off - what?!! How would I even turn it off when I can't run the game up, and how could it possibly be the problem anyway when it has worked absolutely fine for years, and why would any system have a problem with vsync being on or off? I'd just told them that if I completely uninstall Ubisoft Connect, including manually deleting files that the uninstall process doesn't remove, and delete all saved game info from the user documents folder, I can then run the game up ONCE, but it crashes the next time it's run up. The problem is clearly related to information it's downloading during that first run, but they think maybe turning vsync off might fix it?!!
 
Nearly finished all the MAD Skills on my PS account. Just need a good Score Breaker set for Aerobatics and Power Boat.
 
Forgot that you don't need to finish the Skills to get the cars, just need to play them. Still grinding for the Power Boat set, but that's for another day. Right now, got to grind for the Divo to finish this Summit.

I just did it on my alt accounts, using loan vehicles for the Divo and Senna events, it was pretty easy, was still around 200k points above the cutoff, even without good powerboat parts for the skills as well.
 
Is there any special technique required for the Charcoal rental event?

I avoided contact with other cars as much as possible, and all of those annoying punch traps. But even so, I only managed to get about 60,000 points, not 100,000 points.

Because it's a simple oval, the only way to improve my time, apart from avoiding other cars and punches, is to handle the corners, but the suspension of the rental car Charcoal is very soft, and even with all the assists turned on, the tail slide easily occurs, and I can only turn the corners at about 100 to 110 km/h. And if I slow down properly to avoid tail sliding, my time will get even worse.

I'm sure Charcoal will be mine even if I don't try hard in this event. But it's a bit frustrating that I can't get over 60,000 points no matter how many times I retry😭

Wall ride. Don't be afraid. Go all the way up to the wooden part. Wall ride as soon as the first Stormx sign start. You will get the feeling soon. My biggest issue is AI. I always find at least one blocking the road... every single time.

I just gave it a quick try, and got 103k with 3 collisions, one of which spun me through 360 degrees. Like strela says, use the walls, and I use them in a kind of "v" shape, so I'm highest on the wall in the middle of the bend, then slow down a bit to come down steeply on the exit. There's definitely what the British describe as "a bit of a knack to it", I don't know how well that phrase translates to other languages.

Annoyingly RNG, though, took me 5 more attempts to get a run with only 1 collision, 115k.

Still got Plat from the Bling Summit, even though I didn't get the Divo. As for this week, I'm horrible with the DD races, so I'll take what I got (87k)
 
Nowadays I only boot the game up to see what vanities are available, but...

I think this is the third week I'm seeing the same vanities.

Doesn't matter if I toggle the recommendations on or off, still only get these.

Something wrong with the game?

Thank you. Thanks to your advice, I was able to increase my score from 60,000 to 90,000 points.
I'm sure I could get a higher score, but I was getting tired of having to restart the race over and over because of the AI randomly blocking my path, so I'll stop here for now.
 
I think you are right. Those are the same vanities from the last week. Maybe it changes monthly now?
I noticed yesterday that the Motorfest tab in the menus still refers to the Red Bull season, so that hasn't been updated either. But the photo competition that was on the first tab has now ended and been removed.

PS I'm currently trying to build up the 1.1m I need for 2 summit vehicles as I don't want to miss this chance for the Fender.

EDIT - 900k so I'm getting there. I'm also working through the Racer hobbies at the moment, trying to get the stars needed for that car. Just finished the Jaguar boat wins and moved on to Citroën wins in RallyX...
