Asphalt 8 crazy fast 1540 rank Bailey make fail the challenge in BXR Bailey Blade GT1 Enduro Double Down


I'm doing Asphalt 8: Airborne's BXR Bailey Blade GT1 EDD(Enduro Double Down Challenge). But this one crazy fast 1540 rank of BXR Bailey Blade GT1 made me failed challenges several times.
If it isn't the 'double', that's not the problem. But this make player to lose whole unsaved point.




This is 16th tryout's challenge 5 in Windows.

---------------
Challenge 5.
  • BXR Bailey Blade GT1, French Guiana Reverse, Infected, Finish first
  • Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA, Westminster Bridge, Finish first, recommended rank 1127

* 14th, 15th and then this 16th tryout, I didn't get any point. I'm not sure what happened. I probably confusing play in Android--similar but slightly different car specs.
But I don't think that's the case--I mean EDD game was designed to make people to fail the challenge so Gameloft make players to spent tokens to continue play.


This crazy super fast 1540 Bailey make more wasting my time.

As you can see from the screenshot, 1540 rank of BXR Bailey Blade GT1 finished at 1:12:864. This is one of craziest thing.
This challenge's car was Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA and recommended rank is 1127. I have fully upgraded MiTo which rank was 1201.
1201 rank MiTo can finish 1:14:xxx-ish so how can 1127 rank MiTo can finish 1:12:864.

It's not just impossible. I think that even pro-player can't make faster than that time with that rank.

So Gameloft's intention was very clear. They designed this EDD to fail the challenge.

Of course, with double booster, it can be done. But 1127 recommended rank. I don't think so.
Maybe 1127 recommended rank with triple booster can make that time.

Some people won't believe what I am saying.
So here is proof--I tried Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA's mastery challenge 3 which is Westminster Bridge.

It wasn't fastest lap but this wasn't bad lap either. I tried two more times and it wasn't much different--1:14:xxx-ish.
You can try it yourself.


Here, another example, Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Electric Drive's mastery challenge 11 Westminster Bridge. It was fully upgrade so rank was 1212.

This car has more longer duration of nitro and higher rank than MiTo. So it probably can finish earlier than this.

But at least you will understand that I am not making this up.




Previously, crazy fast 1540 Bailey infected challenge problem and then now this....




This is 18th tryout's challenge 4 in Windows.
---------------
Challenge 4.
  • Holden Coupe 60, Barcelona Reverse, Unplugged, Finish first
  • Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA, Westminster Bridge, Finish first, recommended rank 1127

It happened before. Yes, it was better. Because it was 2 seconds slower than last time. 1540 rank of BXR Bailey Blade GT1 finished at 1:14:745.
Last time, finished at 1:12:864.

But fully upgraded 1201 rank of Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA can't easily achieve that time. So how 1127(recommended rank) of MiTo can do that?



I'm playing in Windows and Android, too. So I was quite confused with both. But you can see the first and second AI's finish time difference.

  • 16th tryout challenge 5. First AI finished at 1:12:864 and second AI finished at 1:22:401.
  • 18th tryout challenge 4. First AI finished at 1:14:745 and second AI finished at 1:23:985.


That's why it doesn't make sense at all.




This is 6th tryout's challenge 8 in Android.
---------------
Challenge 7.
  • Ford Focus, Monaco Reverse, Elimination, Finish first, recommended rank 1176
  • Mazda 6, Mount Teide, Finish first

Challenge 8.
  • Challenge 7's Mazda 6, recommended rank 969?
  • Holden Coupe 60, Tokyo Reverse, Infected, Finish first


One crazy fast 1540 rank of Bailey. I probably didn't use shortcut because I was trying to catch that fast AI. But no way, I can catch that.

This is 7th tryout's challenge 15 in Android.
---------------
Challenge 15.
  • Mazda 6, Cloud Nine, Finish first, recommended rank 969
  • Holden Coupe 60, Temple Drive, Finish first


One crazy fast 1540 rank of Bailey. I didn't use shortcut because I was trying to catch that fast AI. But no way, I can catch that.

I don't have Mazda 6 so I can't try whether I can make 1:34:908. But I am quite sure that recommended rank--969 hardly make that time.
Because I tried 1170 (max 4425 pro 4353) rank Mazda 6 in Windows, I can finish like 1:30:xxx with fastest route--cave route.




Android's recommended rank is very low because it was quite early stage of EDD. Difficulty didn't increase yet.
This is very easily I can prove it. Because first AI and second AI's finish time was significantly different--25 seconds and 18 seconds.

  • 6th tryout challenge 8. First AI finished at 1:36:690 and second AI finished at 2:02:529.
  • 7th tryout challenge 4. First AI finished at 1:34:908 and second AI finished at 1:52:167.





I was very irritated by this one crazy fast 1540 rank Bailey. Because most of time, at the beginning I hit the car(almost all the AI) to make clear the road.
But it was useless.

This crazy fast 1540 rank Bailey probably go more fast. This car took all the slowest route but it can still finish first.

So I can't even catch to hit the car.





After that failing, I avoided those challenges because I don't want to lose point.
So I don't know it kept happened or not.

But in Windows, almost one day later, I tried that challenge again. Because I'd like to video recording it. It didn't happen like this.
And then two days later, I collected more points--I felt that some changes in challenges or Gameloft fix the problem, that I can't be sure.

But this one crazy fast 1540 Bailey doesn't act like before. Most of time(almost all the challenges), one AI chased me like crazy. So I had to drift for get nitro and ready for hit that crazy fast AI.
Now things were like other ordinary race. About 3 to 4 AIs are moving together and it didn't chase me like crazy.




But what's the point whether Gameloft fix the problem or not.
Because this unexpected--failed challenge made whole EDD mess.

Who would like to play rubbish--unfair game?

I thought it became better--Windows.
But it isn't.

Just now, it happened again. It was my 30th tryout challenge 5, Westminster Bridge, classic, finish first and recommended rank is only 1127. Recorded and uploaded it to youtube.

You can check out my previous Aston Martin One-77 EDD challenge list in Windows:
- After second EDD invitation challenge list, I included my collected points, spent tokens and car upgrade status. Fourth to eighth EDD tryout have some screenshots of challenge.

You don't have to read whole challenge list but first, second(or third) and sixth(and fifth)--which I collected more than 20,000 points should be enough.
