So apparently there are tons of cosmetics for your karts and characters in CTR remaster but they can only be bought with digital currency (Wumpa Coins) and the coins can only be accumulated in online modes. You also can’t buy the coins with real money.

There have been several reddit posts about this in various subreddits.

If true that really sucks and makes me not want to buy the game. (I had it preordered but cancelled due to lack of funds right now) Online only stuff is so fucking dumb. I’m not even saying that because I don’t like online gaming. I’m saying that cause it’s a bullshit practice and a huge deterrent for a lot of people.

Maybe a patch will be released if fans complain enough. Either way, not a deal breaker since the game is so ggod, cosmetic stuff aint a big deal IMO

I mean. Agree. Cosmetics matter very little. I just find it shitty in general.

It’s a super shitty practice. It’s like Activision can’t do a good thing without putting a shit stain on it.

They couldn’t even fit all 3 spyros on one disc. They’re doing the same shit with the Switch port as well.

I’m catching up on some YouTube videos and holy hell the internet is tearing EA and Epic a new asshole for what they said in the Parliament hearing. Fuck EA for trying to bring Kinder eggs down with them.

With the Kinder Egg you always get chocolate. What do you get with EA’s shitty lootboxes?

P.S. I was going to buy Crash Team Racing next weekend but this online only unlockables snaffu has changed my mind. Thanks Stuart.

A thread…I certainly didn’t want it to come to this.

Do you need the original or is this standalone?

I have no idea, would like to know the answer, too.

I’ll just check on the PS App…

I’ll be back in about an hour probably. :laughing:

Edit:
It makes no mention of any requirements. I’m assuming its standalone.

Government has wanted an in to regulate games in some manner ever since Mortal Kombat brought their attention to it. Shitty thing though is that this is a rock and a hard place. Either people call EA out on their bs or let them continue in the hopes that they don’t harpoon enough whales to make an anti consumer practice worh it.

I don’t know the prospects for that, but the definitive version of Sleeping Dogs is going for $1.99 on Steam until the 25th of June.
