The Crew Motorfest - General Discussion

Grrr they just broke my game ffs the ps5 just patched the game to a different version than the server so i can't play anymore

"Sony presented a patch last night to some players that doesn't exist or exist yet. Therefore it broke the game and prevents you from logging in. From what I can tell, there's an option to update later, see what that does, but do not update. It causes this 0_1_3, which isn't fixable and it's a weekend."

Tuesday being April 1st and this week Summit in TC2 makes me worried. Those trolls at Ivory are unpredictable. No, I'm scarred for real. 🤣

'bout that, I apologize. I have some slight tantrums from time to time. I'll do my best to not do it again.

Update: Looking forward to see if Offline mode will/could be announced soon. I wouldn't be surprised if TC2 and TCM would have mods for PC version after a year or two after the game stops support.

I think we will only see offline mode when Ubisoft wants to pull the plug out of the servers.

I hope they don’t do that anytime soon with TC2 since I still use it as a “feeder” game for vanities to TCM.

Apparently they fixed it but you have to reinstall or wait until wed

I have been catching up with the full thread the last few days, so that's why you've been getting likes for old posts

Here's some info on the next 5 week "month":


There's a Koenigsegg week in the list and I don't have any in either game to use and won't be grinding silly hours to get one.

Don't talk to me about that bloody April Fools summit in TC2 ! Actually, apart from that stupid (and impossible) hovercraft versus motocross race, the rest of the summit I found enjoyable.

It's taken me >6 months of playing TC2 to realise that you can see the next week's summit events and cars that you are missing so you can plan ahead... :😳 I won't be buying that expensive hypercar for next week, so I can buy some other stuff instead. I never get Platinum anyway, as long as I get Gold I'm happy.


TCM update - I ran Offroad 1 for playlist 8, Drift for playlist 9 and am going to do Offroad 2 for playlist 10.

I've got 3 Jasper pictures left to find grrr... I'm being canny - I've got a number of challenge rewards to "collect" but I'm leaving them until the next month rolls over to help ensure level 50.

What are the best Legend points to go for first? I've already got Rich and Iron Grip maxed and will have lots of points to spend on Wednesday - this month I've got to level 41 which I am pleased with.

You have to keep moving them around until you have a huge number.

Skilled is essential for points-based skills such as slaloms.

Iron grip is only relevant for events with tyre wear. When it is relevant, it's generally so important that you also want it in the parts affixes too.

Trawler is important for events where you go through water.

Bended is important for bikes, and again you generally also want it in parts affixes.

Hothead and slippery for drift events, again also in parts affixes.

Rocket and ventilated for events where you're using nitro in the air.

Pure, extra pump, frenetic almost always useful.

Resourceful for events where you're doing a lot of braking.

Drifty for events where you're drifting on corners a lot, e.g. races using a drift car, or rally.

Cluster for drag events.

I might have missed some, as the above is from memory rather than running the game up and going through them.

On Twitter the devs talked about Jet racing. I'm really looking forward to that!!

Sorting will be fixed tomorrow 🎉🎉🎉🎉

@Johnny Caisse I'm not blaming you. It's those trolls at Ivory that like to joke on...yesterday/ today. Yesterday it was Koenigsegg week. Today it's Alpha GT GB week. And now I'm not even sure what was that Tweet yesterday. April fools a day early?

I did actually manage to do the hovercraft event on a brand new account, to get the 400k followers. I can't do it with the completely un-upgraded vehicle, but a couple of runs of Gator Rush on the easiest difficulty to get a few upgrades and I'm able to win the summit event. You do need to take the route near the finish where you go up the ramps and jump across rooftops, the vehicle is just too slow to take the ground route, so you have to go really slowly and carefully before the first ramp to get lined up.

Thanks for the guidance. Although, I don't do buggering about , so they'll be going on Drifty (as theres a Drift summit coming up) and probably Ventilated for the upcoming jet stuff. I'll probably move the Iron Grip points to Skilled as we're doing Feats every week.

Thank god for that!

This week Summit is super competitive. Was in 7000th place with 1.330k points. Pushed a little bit more to 1.352k and got to 5000th place. Not sure where to improve honestly.
Custom Show on the other hand was pretty lucky. Everyone I follow got platinum on XBox.
Ready for next week.

Had to spend half the night flying around picking up collectibles (viewpoints, murals, bike helmets, waterfalls) [I'm still missing 1 bloody Jasper Wong artwork which is bloody irritating but found the sneaky ones by Rabbit Island tonight] - managed to get enough of the challenges completed, with a Custom Race in the WW2 plane to finish off the last 20k XP , to earn my first one of these...

It's taken a lot of effort 👌 but I can wear it with pride!

Next week's summit looks horrible! Alpha GP always = expensive though I have 6m in the bank now, plus forced cockpit view - aaargh!
I might just try to do 2 events for Main Stage.

This Week in The Crew - Apr 1

Here is what’s happening in The Crew®  this week!

PS It's annoying that most of the playlist challenges require something in a Crew to get their Legendary title.
