My lady was not so lucky this evening, and her one Super Wheelspin she was awarded, netted her three different types of leggings. She was not pleased.
As I get more and more cars in my garage (426 unique cars already) it seems the rewards from spins and even super spins become absolute crap. I feel like 70% of the time I get cash, 15% of the time a clothing item I didn’t have yet and 15% of the time a duplicate car (most likely common, sometimes rare or even epic, or FH).
I know there is some heavy dupe protection in the wheelspins to some point and that’s great. But I feel the chances of getting a car you don’t have yet become increasingly slimmer as well as your garage grows. There are still legendary cars popping up in my spins but that entire system is just rigged AFAIK. The game already knows which prize you will win and just show some other stuff as fillers on the spinning wheel IMO.
It's not that the wheelspins are rigged or become worse by design. It's just that when we started the game, we had no money, cars, emotes, clothes or horns. Every single wheelspin was a winner. But as our bank accounts, garages, wardrobes, etc fill up, it becomes increasingly rare that the wheelspins turn up anything new. The chances for each item are exactly the same. We're simply realizing just how rare the rare items really are.
I’ve decided to start hanging on to my wheelspins until the new update later this month. If PG have been listening to community feedback like they said, then we should hopefully see some kind of improvement in prizes, like not getting clothing items we already have. If nothing is done, then I’ll still have a mountain of wheelspins to do.
Do we really get clothing items we already have? Like 100% sure? I already have 95% of the clothing items and AFAIK I’m not getting “duplicates” (or the wheel ending on an item I already have). Instead, I see FAR more 2000-25000 green cash rewards than when I started playing the game. It feels to me that clothing items (and chat phrases + emotes) that I already have are more and more being replaced with low credit rewards on the wheel and I end up getting those a lot. Which for me is a fine system, I hope they would replace the dupe cars with cash as well, at least for the common green junk and rare blue junk. I’m absolutely fed up with having to scan my 400+ garage for all the crappy green dupes and delete them manually one by one.
It’s basically the same with clothes, I just had a normal wheelspin and while it was spinning I only saw cars and cash, a lot of cash. I do get your biker gear feeling though, was the same with me. But those “sets” come in a bunch of colours and have a lot of parts so it will take a while to get them all.I think I’m going to start keeping track of what clothing I don’t have in a spreadsheet, use some of my wheelspins and see what I get, just to make sure. I could’ve swore I kept seeing the same pieces of the biker outfits that I already have, but I don’t have proof of this.
But I do know for a fact that horns and emotes eventually go away. They don’t show up in my wheelspins anymore. But I still see a bunch of clothing as potential prizes.
And yeah, getting duplicate cars is super annoying. It’s worse than getting nothing. I prefer not having them build up, so I have to back out of the wheelspin menu, search for and remove the dupe car, and then come back. It’s inconvenient either way.
Won the Carlton from a spin along with roughly 900k, so no need to do the seasonal
I did the seasonal then got my fourth Carlton from the second spin I got afterwards...
I haven't had anything actually good from a spin in ages, the last three super spins I've done were two clothing items and another Isetta, two green cash and a hat and 160k (one purple and two green cash). I've still got a few wheelspin exclusives to get including the NA2 NSX-R but it's reluctant to give me cars at all, much less cars I haven't already had multiple duplicates of. I'm sure it's just a run of bad luck but they seemed to turn to crap at level 210 (1 star), I'm level 258 or 9 now.
I must be weirdly lucky, because I think I've only few a few duplicate cars from spins, and I don't think I've had any duplicate cosmetics or emotes. I'm lvl 97 with one star, so it's not like I don't have plenty of hours in the game either.
I got the F40 yesterday as well but from a superspin. Accompanied by 2 low green credit spins but that's fine, the days of 2 or 3 great things from a superspin seem to be long gone.Time to report on some winnings that were not trash. To begin with, there's this from a few days ago:

I've also won a 911 Turbo 3.3 and Aventador today, both of which come with meaty 6-figure Credit perk prizes.
My bit about the emotes was mostly in response to the person before you, who said they've gotten the Carlton dance four times...?
