Update 1.0.7 — TrackCards and Improvements
Version 1.0.7 is here! The big highlight is TrackCards, a new way to make your car stronger beyond parts. Here's everything that changed:
🃏 TrackCards
TrackCards are collectible cards, one for each Tour championship. When equipped, they give your car bonuses during championships.
- How to get them: a card unlocks when you're promoted in that Tour championship or when you complete the League in that country for the first time. After that, every new League completion in that country earns a copy of the card.
- Evolution: collect copies to raise the card's rarity through Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary and Mythic. The rarer the card, the stronger its bonuses. Want to speed things up? You can buy copies with DTR Coin.
- Bonuses: you can equip a set of up to 3 different cards. Each card has three bonuses:
- extra car performance when the championship is held in the card's country;
- a boost to one part type, like Engine or Tires;
- extra points in one attribute, like Speed or Braking.
[*]Strategy: since each card favors a different part and attribute, it pays to build the trio that best suits your car and the championships you're racing. A new set takes effect from the next championship.[*]Circuit: open a card and flip it to see that championship's track layout and its km per lap.
🪙 DTR Coin
- DTR Coins now sit together in a single stack in your Inventory, taking up less space and keeping things tidy.
- You can send them to Steam and back to your Inventory several at a time, choosing the exact quantity.
🏆 League
- The Overview MMR chart is more complete: it now shows the value scale on the side, and hovering over a championship reveals the country, your MMR, your final position and how much you gained or lost.
🐾 Mascot
- Your mascot now warns you when your Inventory is full and when your Crate Storage is almost full or full, so you don't lose crates or items for lack of space.
🔧 Improvements
- Mastery: the VIP point reallocation now also refunds level 1 of each upgrade, giving you more freedom to rebuild your Mastery Tree.
- Race: the minimap has a new track design that's easier to follow during the race.
🚀 What's next
- Daily check-in: in the next update, you'll be able to claim a free reward every day.
- New ways to earn rewards: we're creating fun ways to reward your progress and the time you spend playing online.
We know many players miss the free Plincar spins. We're working on new mechanics specifically to make up for that change, and we'll have news soon!
