Lol so you aren’t wrong but the amount of game play needed to win jam rounds and what not is ridiculous... it’s clearly geared towards people purchasing game currency. The payouts are absolutely minimal in the jam rounds. Again like stated, for people that don’t have months (and that’s not exaggerating) of time to build up to the best bike, be prepared to drop $400-$500 to purchase the fastest bike with all the mods to it, as you have to wait 10 hours for a mod to be placed on the bike or use 6 gold bars. I’m sorry but you guys missed the mark and have gotten extremely greedy. There’s a reason it’s sitting at a 3 out of 5 in the Canadian apple App Store with majority of the complaints being the same thing I’m posting... I’m sure once it’s released worldwide, the same complaints will be made.
Your screen name is very telling....

I'm playing as a beta tester and we regularly have to dump all our progress and update to the newest beta version of the game and start over.
I've had to start over several times.
Saying it that it takes months to build to the best bike is not completely accurate.
If you hate that you can't finish the game in a couple of days, maybe it's not for you.

It took me a while to like the game play in 3, now I much prefer it over 2.
Game companies have to make money, how else are they going to develop new versions?

One thing that really needs to change that I've mentioned in the discord server a few months ago when I started as a beta tester, android still has the issue where you have to take your thumb off the gas and re press every time you hit the restart button. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but in MSM2, you can find a flow of hitting the restart button to nail a beginning section and not have to remove your thumb from the gas. And keep pounding away. I have the latest beta on my android and it's still an issue.

I’m fairly decent at the game and it would take quite a long time to build up bikes, not talking a couple days or weeks but rather months and months. 100% geared towards pay to play.

Ad revenue is where it's at.. Not alot of engagement if you could beat the game in a week or two... But imagine months and months of selling ad space to companies while you spend all that time staring at a screen...

Like I said already, this game isn't finished and it is missing a lot of things that will reward currency. So the amount you can earn per day will go up once those things are added.

The Jam prizes are also temporary right now. We have been mostly focusing on Career. Playing in the Career Championships is the best way to earn currency at the moment. If you do well in just a few championships a day you can easily save enough for the next bike in a few days or less. It also doesn't take $400-$500 to buy bikes if you wanted to buy them. There are bike bundle deals which make the bikes pretty cheap. For example: for $10 you can get bike 4, 300 gold, a bike skin, 5 day rep boost, and a new color. Another example: $8 gets you a maxed out bike 3, 300 gold, 5 day rep boost, skin, new color.

It's also tough to please everyone. After all this is a free to play game. We can't just give away everything for free as we are a business and need to make money to not only cover the cost of development but the server fees, etc. Every bike and upgrade can be earned for free in time. Nothing performance related is blocked behind a pay wall. We try to find a good balance of allowing players to earn everything for free but also offer some good deals for those who do want to spend money. It is a tough balance to make a game that is fun and doesn't require spending while still being profitable. A free to play game will always have some grind if you don't want to pay.

You can't download it yet unless you are in Canada or the Philippines.

Like I said in my original post, I understand that you need to make money... and it doesn’t have great reviews on the apple app page or the google play store page... you guys missed the mark plain and simple.

Pro tip for you. When you get good at the game you unlock stuff. Super simple. They didn’t miss any Mark, it’s a 100% free game. Hang in there buddy you’ll get there

Why do you think it isn't out globally yet Smile

If we felt we already hit the mark it would be out. But we haven't and we are still working hard to get there. Appreciate the feedback and we will take it into account. We are also reading reviews and seeing what players are saying. So don't think it isn't going unnoticed. Hopefully you like the finished product once we release it.

Everyone wants instant gratification these days. Heard a YouTuber complaining about the new MXGP game because it took him an hour to upgrade his in game bike fully. Cry some more. It's a game. You don't just get handed all the unlockables day 1.

How so? Is it the kind of cheating that people are WAY better than you and instead of putting in the time to get better you just say they’re cheating? If you really play you’ll develop skills and then before you know it YOU are the one “ cheating “

The tough part is riding a wheelie over the face of the jump and using it to propel you over the next one faster. Takes serious skill, but you have to be able to master it before moving forward. Different types of tracks and backgrounds would be nice.
