Were the rewards we had earned for Anything Goes Adventure taken away?

Looking at the Series Rewards tab, and I’ve gone from Level 14 (which was my rank in Anything Goes Adventure) to Level 16 (which is my rank in Team Racing). Are the devs really removing rewards we worked all month for, just two days before we were supposed to get them? It doesn’t seem like a bug or a glitch, because I know this update replaced Anything Goes with Free-For-All adventure.

It may not be much, but still, I was pretty happy to have made it into the “blue tier.” I’m sure lots of people were ranked higher in Anything Goes. I hope something is being done about this so that we still get the rewards we thought we were working toward.

Thats a very good question because I was league 5 in that lobby. I want rewards all the way up to league 5 like i’ve been getting the last few times

Same here. I recently made it into blue and now all my rewards are gone. I did only anything goes this series.

Doesn’t surprise me at all.
Couldn’t have been that hard to take “highest rank earned” and apply it to one of the existing buckets, but it would have required a minimal amount of foresight and planning.
I’m really astonished a AAA studio can get away with such terrible program management. Like, really, no one ever anticipated that ramming would be the entire metagame in team adventure? Have they played video games before?
Same boat with the garage/tune/design limit. Really, game mechanics that mean I want to have 3 or more of a given car, since I can’t swap tunes at race start, and no corresponding place to store them? Again, a completely foreseeable consequence.

I get that systems design is hard, and you can’t anticipate everything, but you should at least map out primary gameplay paths just as you would workflows. Two weeks of work upfront saves months of bugfixes later.

Such a wonderful engine, so much potential, but such a hackneyed implementation. Having to remove Anything goes rather than simply adding a new mode as well… Poor.

Same here on both accounts, all progress is gone! now stating unranked. I also only played anything goes due to the most chance getting into an online session.
So glad i decided to not risk it and finish up the achievement with the second account last sunday night!

This sucks, I hope we get the rewards earned back! Dont get it that they change this 1 day before the close of this seasonl…

Same here, I have only played the anything goes mode, and I’ve now gone from rank 16 (Was almost at rank 15…) to unranked. Please don’t tell me I’ve essentially lost the rewards I had clearly earned before the update…

Kind of good news in a way.

Phase 1. Submit support tickets saying your ranking is screwed.
Phase 2. ???
Phase 3. Everyone gets prizes.

I have submitted a ticket, and would recommend others who have been affected to do the same so that hopefully the issue will be resolved.

I predicted a free Capri FE for everyone as the chances of the rewards working are less than favourable if you look at the trend.

Yippee

If you go to the GM players, my name is still up there in the top 5, so maybe we will still get the rewards!!!

I just hope that they realize that they basically jacked everyone out of their rewards and fix it because getting to tier 10 wasn’t fun except for the fact that i would be getting the Forza Edition Vulcan at the end of it.

Received a response to my ticket about this issue a couple hours ago:

"Thank you for reporting this issue.

We are currently looking into this and your ticket will be added to our investigation.

We will send out an announcement to the Community when we have a resolution.

Thank you for your patience."

Hoping that it gets sorted out, although slightly frustrating that my ticket is marked as “solved” now, when the problem hasn’t been resolved!

For my last ticket, I was thanked and gifted 1,000,000 credits for taking 2 screenshots and sourcing a reference picture from the internet. The issue in question remains.

LOL are they still not saying anything about this?

It’s become a moot point for me personally, as I was able to rank up to a higher league in solo adventure the day before rewards came out. But if I was one of the people who had worked so hard for a Grandmaster ranking I’d be furious

As they use to say in the 60s on Top 40 radio stations:

“And the hits just keep on happening”

PS, yeah I’m as old as dirt…
