You can use real money to buy coins, R dollars or packs that contain cars and coins.įiremonkey have replaced head to head with what they call “Time-Shifted Multiplayer” which means that you can play against friends but they don’t need to be online – rather you play against their last time competing in that race. RR3 is free to install but relies on in-app purchases to earn Firemonkey some money. This leads us to the one difference between RR3 and the two earlier games in the franchise. ![]() There are at least 1,000 levels and after three days of heavy play I’m currently level 21. You gain R dollars by racing, coins are gained when oyu level up your driver – you gain “Fame” in every race and this will make you level up. There are a few high level cars that are bought with coins rather than R dollars. The game also has R dollars and these are spent on repairs, servicing, buying cars and upgrading cars. You can speed up both repairs and servicing by spending coins. Both damage repair and servicing take time, often stretching into hours. If you neglect either then it will impact the performance of your car. Since you start at the back of the pack in Cup and Elimination races you will do a lot of passing.ĭamage needs to be repaired and you will also need to service your car. Given that the opponents never deviate from the racing line this often means a lot of damage to the side of my car. In Cup races I often seem to find myself racing against cars that are faster along the straight but I can brake a lot deeper into corners and seem to accelerate a little faster out of them so overtaking is often a case of ducking into the inside at a corner. There are a number of different sorts of race a traditional motor race with a field of 22 called a Cup race, elimination races with a field of eight where the last car gets eliminated every 20 seconds, drag races comprising three rounds, autocross where you have to post the fastest time for a short stretch of track, speed snap where you have to hit the finish line at the highest possible speed, speed record where you have one lap to attain the highest possible speed, endurance where you have a certain amount of time to gain the longest distance with time bonuses for passing and finishing a lap and head to head where you race against one other car. I love the way my Dodge gets light and skittish when it’s roaring down a long straight. The game play is good with excellent graphics, sound and realism. So far I’ve found 9 tracks but some have variations of layout so in total I’ve found 17 layouts. Mount Panorama, better known as Bathurst, in Australia is even included. The tracks are also varied from the almost impossibly tight and unforgiving Southbank track in Melbourne, Australia to the Indianapolis Speedway and more traditional tracks such as Silverstone or Brands Hatch to the wide open long straights of Hockenheim. Ferrari didn’t license any of their cars to the game and they and Mercedes and the most obvious holes in the supercar lineup. The cars range from the old Nissan Silvia S15 all the way through US muscle cars and Italian sports cars such as the Lamborghini Aventador to European exotics such as the Bugatti Veyron and Pagani Huayra. A given car can usually compete in several series and might find itself the best possible car in one series but seriously outgunned in another. There are 27 different racing series to compete in and each series has three or four different cars that can compete in it. ![]() I have to say at one level it doesn’t disappoint, the graphics, controls damage modelling and the addition of having to service a car make it better than RR2 and there are a wide range of tracks and cars to play. ![]() I was looking forward to RR3 with bated breath. I enjoy racing games and I am a huge fan of the Real Racing franchise, I enjoyed both 1 and 2 enormously. Since I am in Australia I get to play Real Racing 3 (RR3) before the general release on the 28th.
