Totally agree with your points🙌 I really hope FS sees this and changes something. It would be so sad for me to actually see the game, that I dedicated so much time, die completely just because of some mistakes by the developers. Let’s hope for the best
I think I have (almost) decided to stop posting HCR2 themed videos at this point, we get no contact with the developers so the game is basically going to shit. I am thinking of rebranding the channel to a vlogging channel tell me if you would still come stop by sometime to watch my videos😆😆
An idea that would work well is to post roblox or minecraft videos. Even these games are mainly for kids, they have a very large audience. Kids are everywhere, and kids need entertainment. Kids take up a whopping 80% of youtube audience. And games seem to be what really trending for them now.
I completely agree with this video, i quit the game because of many reasons and this was one of the main reasons. It became too tedious, too boring and the new updates were so pointless which did not add any fun just aesthetics which were also pointless. The worst update in my opinion is the adventure tokens. After this i just stopped adventure. It took me 8 months to unlock canyon. 8 Months!! By that time cuptown was introduced. Since then i pretty much stopped playing regularly as well
yeah same, just quitted last year because of adventure tokens (its very stupidly hard to grind), plus grinding for gems and coins is too boring, adding at least 1 map each update and also lacking new content for each update
I've stopped playing because of the time I need to do to fully max out my account.ive only maxed out the upgrades on one vehicle and it's took me 6 months
I guess I should quit playing hcr2 because of hackers 😞. Literally there are everywhere whether in cups leaderboard or in community showcase event or in adventure leaderboard even the boss levels are hacked 😭. This is the biggest reason for making me think to quit hcr2. Anyways nice video and keep growing 😊
I shouted "EXACTLY" so many times 😂 I'm going to do my best to popularize your video Jerry. I'm not exactly an og play r but I have been around in hcr2 as a noob for a long time so I understand. Even I feel like quitting now. I really hope fingersoft sees this video and comments on it 😔
Agree. I loved HCR2 so much, but I haven't played it much recently. I hope the developers will give one last squeeze on this game before HCR3 takes the crown...
you bring up some good points, I hope someone from fingersoft actually watches this and considers your points instead of ignoring everything like usual
Instructions unclear:all of the sudden,everything is fixed,hcr2 becomes the most popular game in existence and has an avarage of 15 million players playing daily,nitro gets nerfed,beast and lowrider get a free buff,refill costs 20 gems again,map creative is entirely free,tokens are removed and so are the blueprints,fa become richer than Microsoft and everything becomes perfect.
As a new player it is actually really hard to get tokens and blueprints it took me 2 months and only have 167 blueprints.. i barely wanna play this game and I hope FS would see this vid
A lot of good points in this video... Truly sad to see my favourite game being abandoned by the devs lately.. 😢 At this point I even find HCR1 more enjoyable, as it doesn't have complicated & useless features that are super hard for new players to get. You just unlock new maps & vehicles with coins, very easily.. It can take only a few months to get a maxed account on HCR1 if you play daily. Furthermore HCR1 doesn't have any sh*tty anticheat system and any incompetent support team. I've pretty much quit playing HCR2 after late 2023, because of the bad updates, and 1.58.0 was the last straw for me. _Look how they massacred my boi.._ Great vid 🎉
ARGEE, HCR1 ARE SO MUCH FUN. Now new player are unable to play because the blueprints update which sucks and im very lucky that i unlocked every vehicle before the update. And i also quit the game at late 2023. Sometimes i will only claim chest reward and left the game immediently
I can agree with the last sentence. I used to be an oh player as i have mentioned and there just so many bad useless features that make it impossible to progress if you arent good at the game this is so sad.. 😭 even hcr1 is better and more enjoyable now...
I feel that since late 2022, I've been let down by EVERY SINGLE UPDATE that FS has released. From parts that are way too overpowered to impossible limits in adventure maps to unfair cashgrabs, they're just squeezing more money out of us while making us quit the game. It's fucked up. They should realize that eventually, everyone's gonna quit and they're gonna end up bankrupt. Every time I play this game, I barely have any motivation (hence the lack of uploads on my channel) and wish that I could just go back to 2021, when I actually enjoyed the game and actively grinded daily. If I'm being honest, I don't expect anything to happen for the next couple of months at least. Fingersoft has continued to ignore all of the community's complaints and suggestions. They blatantly LIED about releasing ONE OF THE GREATEST, MOST ASKED-FOR FEATURES IN THE GAME (track editor), and continue to make the most shitty, filler updates EVER to get every last cent out of their "beloved" community. I haven't quit yet, but nobody should be surprised if I do. It's disgusting, sickening and heartbreaking to see my beloved game, the prequel (HCR) of which I started playing 8 years ago, be reduced to dirt and ashes by its own developers.
THIS. Fingersoft is by far the most laziest developer I've ever played a game from since Gameloft, I don't have much motivation to even play this dying pile of sh*t. It's getting ridiculous, boring, frustrating, unplayable, stale af. I agree with you on the filler updates, just something new and that's it, nothing good about it. After hearing about the reverted Public Event ticket refill prices to 20 gems from 60, I think FS is trying to control the amount of damage they've done, well it's too late, IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN 60 IN THE FIRST PLACE. 60 gems for 4 tickets is an absolute rip-off, I would've slapped the person who even thought of that stupid crap. If they add one more crappy thing, whether if it is a vehicle, map, or feature that is broken, I'm leaving. I've had enough of this sh*t, I cannot stand anymore sh*tty adventure maps, glitchy vehicles, cups that shouldn't be for new players but added as a Bronze or Silver League cup anyway. Wake your f*cking selves up Fingersoft.
Great video Jerry! I hope they will listen to this because you're totally true, the game developers should interact more with the community, to know what has to be done
the example of modded COC is a good example since the modded version has a different server which consists of hackers only, it doesnt affect the real community who play the game legitly
when u said towards the end that you dont think anybody is maxxed, i queued a guy in community showcase today who was :> but yeah everything u said was spot on
Totally agree. And you provided a lot of insight on things I was not aware of. I have been playing HCR2 ever since it was first released, having played HCR1 for many years. I'm certainly not a top player, but it is incredible how difficult it is to max out just one vehicle now. I had a VIP sub for a couple years which helped, but I recently dropped it and going back to non-VIP rewards is just painful. I had to temporarily re-activate VIP so that I could unlock the Rock Bouncer since it is basically impossible any other way. I've been with a great team for a while as well and have worked my way up as a top contributor for the team so I am not backing out yet, but it's incredible how I haven't even gotten some parts for the new vehicles yet- I still don't have Nitro for the Muscle Car for example, and without the Nitro part you don't have a chance at scoring high in the team events. I also hate how most of the recent vehicles they have released either break the game or are completely pointless. And I honestly can't remember the last new Cup that I enjoyed. Every one seems more frustrating than the last. I hope FingerSoft gets their act together. From what I have played of Lego Hill Climb Racing, it's gonna be even worse as far as the grind goes as well.
Yup, I agree with you Jerry! I've been playing for 4 years with my Girlfriend, we have upgraded all the cars to maximum, but didn't like the new additions, so in the end we quited the game
The 4 worst things they did were rearranging the garage, introducing adventure tokens, making adventure mode unplayable until a certain level, and changing the prices of the vehicles.
Jerry, you really do speak from a lot of players perspectives. And I can extremely agree with your points about adventure tokens. Not only do the RNG factors of random car selections for adventure chest maps make you use your most un-upgraded and inexperienced vehicles, it also kills you early into your gameplay because of the lack of upgrades to get you a distance. And all the races give you not even hundreds of coins at a time so you're constantly put behind a paywall to upgrade your early starter cars. I have to wait months to get even just enough money to unlock final upgrades on my DUNE BUGGY. And even with a fully upgraded dune buggy I can't get past 4k Km on some adventures because of the RNG on attachment unlocks. I've played Hill Climb since release on the same google play account and I still haven't even gotten more than 1 fuel boost upgrade for the dune buggy, let alone my Muscle car. I'm still stuck with perfect landing boost and wheelie boost on the Muscle car. Let's not mention the RNG on the key unlocks. You have to work HARD for the keys not to mention the difficulty it is to nab the large keys for new players. But it doesn't even gift you enough money to upgrade a SINGLE THING on cars. So far I've had to wait at least 1 year to finish just upgrading my engine on the Racing Truck. And I barely get anything for that car either. Another problem is the gem crates. Which are also entirely RNG based. Car parts, and Car selection in general! Making a free game based on gambling also for kids does not promote a good image for the playerbase. Part of me is sad and happy HL2 is dying because it's just become another cash grabber for the devs. HL1 was so much better because the coin rewards were so much more bountiful and could actually net a player money for a new map to experience within just a few hours let alone just days. But now I have to wait days just to get another adventure crate run and net nothing from it, and months to get a new map!
I totally agree of this entire video. The agme developers are just sitting and just adding silly things to game to just earn money and don't care about the people playing this game.... Today Sabeer account is banned and they say we can't do nothing about this...hackers ruining the game and legit players being banned 🤨 what the heck is that.... For newbies, the game is just a time pass and boring. For me, as a old player from Hcr2 (playing from 2018), i remember those old golden days where there were very few maps to play and no adventure tokens and all vehicles and maps to be purchased with gold and rank just.... but now a days the game is just ruined by adding these updates and the nost painful the nitro... becoz one who has nitro, dominates the whole lobby...whole others don't having this keep lagging behind....this made the loss of the skilled WRs of all time that were made so hard...but developers didn't care 😢😐😐🤧🤧🤧🤧
I absolutely agree even tho i couldnt sometimes understand what you were saying because subtitles didnt catch but overall really good arguments. The devs do nothing good to the game
I totally agree with every point you said in this video....... A point I would like to add is that in recent maps like canyon arena, cuptown the developers have become more lazy as they cant every bother to put fuels after a certain distance, the map are made for fun but getting restricted to go further after a point make game trash........
I will say that Fingersoft has done a good with some of their updates. They just re-added the 20 gem refill which was a common complaint. Although it’s annoying for those who are not VIP, the track editor has very few flaws. Just hoping they get rid of the many hackers in the game now, I’ve gotten two in one cup before 🙏
I feel like just need to add a whole rework of some of this stuff, as you said like the adventure tokens events and vehicle blueprints. I would make it so you now get adventure tokens on the adventure road as rewards for certain milestones
The part where you said it’s hard for newer players because of the parts and how many vehicles they release per year is so right, when I started the game,the maximum GP was 9400 I think, now I have 9100GP but the maximum is now 12000and something,it is so hard to max everything and then have enough spare parts for the next vehicle
man this is so true, ive almost quit at this point tbh. a problem is also that fingersoft are removing real players like sabeer and jumpi wich is insane. totally agree with this video
Fr If they continue like this, at some point you'll have to pay for things like adventure mode or money for each map or something like that i hope they change something cause many people are quitting 😞
I always knewed about some of the problems that you said in the video, such as the game progressively getting P2W and slower account progress over time. The best thing to be added to progress the account was the OG seasonal chests, even though they were OP, they helped so much to max out the account by giving legendary and epic parts alongside with some gems to help to enjoy more the game.
thanks, now i'm demotivated to play it again. i used to play it as a kid with no wifi and i did enjoy it, then i reuploaded it like one year ago and i noticed something was wrong with how they were adding shops and tokens everywhere, something was off. now i redownload it again, notice that it is maybe overly complex and the same day i see your video and understand maybe i should not be nostalgic about it and try to play again
2:43 I'm sad that Fingersoft took me away from ads. A few days ago I got a popup asking me to do something to protect my privacy, I just wanted to skip it but I couldn't and I don't have any ads
I would like to see a part 2. there's many more topics to talk about like how fs shouldn't be lazy with adventure maps after 10k and making adventure challenges in weekly challenges not just 200m but actually interesting and challenging but not to hard for new players. Under 10k is good maybe 7k depending on the map
I really made up my mind to delete acc in hcr2 ... Cauze those things Trully u said is correct .. They are just ruining our og game ... 😢😢 Hope Fs finds this out....
Hey Jerry, I am completely on your side. Hcr2 is such a cool game but fs is holding back the true potential of the game by the enormous paywall I really see every single day. I am actively playing for around 1,5 hours a day every day for 2,5 years now and I only have 4700 gp, which feels like you can’t do anything on top level
I agree with your points. I am an OG HCR2 player and still have some fun, but ever since the addition of adventure tokens, I just stopped playing adventure altogether. Nitro is way too overpowered and it is basically necessary in order to win either events or community showcases. The game just feels tedious and the lack of developer and community communication/involvement is what kills most games. I still don't even have Rock Climber because of how hard it is to obtain in public events. I don't want this for HCR2. None of us do. The past few updates have been very underwhelming, and it saddens me to see a a game that I have put so much time into slowly die. I just hope that it will get better, but it probably won't.
"Only the biggest players can compete at the highest level", that IS the definition of highest level. Also, the ads are minimal, not too annoying and you can usually skip within a couple seconds. Progress isn't too slow either, you just have to win your races. Also, I think it's good that it takes a while to max-out everything; if you want to be OP, you should be willing to work for it
I quit because I changed my phone and I couldn't log in my account because hcr doesn't support facebook still and I had to write to fingersoft but they sent me back a list of 20 things to do to log in my account
I've played hcr2 for a long time and im sad to see it going away. It feels just like a lot of other companies who are giving up on development and only focus on profit. The community has been neglected and the game is sadly dying. I only hope fingersoft does something soon
That video is so good and relatable. If someone knows me, they will know I am in PL National and I quitted the game because of the exact reasons you talked about in your video. The game in last year or two became too P2W and is slowly getting more and more boring. I hope FS does something because other top players start to lose interest in the game which may lead to hcr completely dying
I strongly strongly agree with you. Fs has ruined their game. Old players are losing motivation to play the game now and I see why and it's just very difficult for the new one's to progress. It's only the players like myself having 5 6k gp that still play it much because there is so much to achieve the recent updates aren't effecting much. They are pretty much useless. I really liked the video. Fs is just killing itself as they can't get much new players and the old one's will quit the game certainly after some time. I think fs should fix all that as it has so much potential
I got lucky to start my journey in 2022 before bad updates comes FS community managers good at not doing their job, but just want to squeeze money from us too much good games died from this. Rip ,pvz, tf2, dark deception, etc 😢
It is just sad how a game of my childhood is dead for the developers of the game. It is actually the first game I downloaded back in 2017 the first and the only game I actually played but now I don't know how to do with A LOT OF HACKERS I hope the game revives from its own grave
I have a friend who was a pretty new player and I have been playing for years. I actually needed to help him get all the adventure maps because he just wasn't good at long distances. Even with my help he still needed a few months to get all the maps.
I miss the "only coins" times... After they made maps unlocking by adventure stars, it was ok, but not so long ago they added those tokens and since that I haven't played this game so much
I love this game so much. I have put so much time and effort into this game and i dont want all of that to go to waste by qutting. I guess i have been playing the game on hard mode. I decided that i would have to max out a vehicle before i bought the next one. But this game has been so fun. I really hope the devs see this video and consider doing somthing.
I have been playing hcr2 adventure pretty consistently (I finished the trophy road) and still stuck at mines with 400+ tokens and the next map is desert. I wished they made adventure tokens at least easily to get, like appearing in the maps as collectables like coins for you to get but less common. And I think thats the only problem I have with adventure tokens. They are just simply too hard to get if you're starting out in the game. Cause you cant get far in adventure.
As for these FS community managers , I had a chance to talk to them twice on Stream, but I didn't discuss problems because they weren't there (with Fingersoft itself in August, and with David in December(I know, I forgot))
Well last time I quit the game and then I came back when it was the target event (Cachery) and I couldn’t get good scores bc I didn’t have bus thrusters
I used to play the game for many years, playing daily. Around the same time nitro dropped, and before that, i struggled to keep enjoying the game, and contributing to team events. I dropped from CC, bouncing from teams, down the ranks due to inactivity, until i eventually quit entirely. I remember when the game first came out, and Its sad to me to see the game in this position, and to no longer enjoy it. I do agree on the decline of time trial. I used to love time trial, it was the main thing I played. Though over time, my love for it dwindled, and nitro was the nail in the coffin. This is the first hcr yt video ive watched in many months... Seeing games go downhill feels like a common trend that I hate to see. Used to enjoy hcr, and games like minecraft, and more specifically hypixel skyblock. Also the Pokemon series is a prime example. There are MANY more examples where the game creators feel like they're just getting lazy with it, or ignorant. Imo, Terraria is one of few old games left, that I still truly enjoy, that hasnt gone to shit. I doubt anyone will read this far, especially seeing as hcr content has died alongside the game, will anyone prove me wrong?
@terraria4213-re2ns Exactly! I remember a few months back when Red was talking in the forums with people. People were able to make suggestions to positively influence the game. Time and time again, I use Terraria as a reference as for what other games should strive to be.
Minecraft and terraria seem to be the only good games now,also Fortnite.The fact that they are still goated games even after so many years just amazes me,look at hcr2,it survived 4 years on a decent popularity and then went downhill,while Minecraft is 15 fukin years old and still has 2-3 million people playing daily,which is triple the amount of fingersoft's avarage daily players,terraria is a no-brainer,one if the greatest games of all time,Fortnite devs literally add everything they see trendy which is funny but good.
so im relatively new to hcr2, and i completely agree with this video. i started last may, and have played pretty regularly since then, and i currently have 5.6k gp. i dont know much about blueprints because i intentionally unlocked all the cars before the update, but for me i can say the beginning of the game is definitely absurdly hard, and adventure tokens are complete garbage. ive been playing adventure maps consistently since i got the game, i have 1.6m stars and i havent even unlocked gloomvale yet 💀. grinding adventure tokens has been a slow and painful process, even with me doing public events for tokens and my daily adventure chests. getting good leveled parts is also a nightmare. i have all of my vehicles 15/15/15/15 so leveling isnt an issue, but the parts are a pain in the ass. cars like motocross, bus, or even rally car are unplayable without decent parts. i think the games concept is cool, but i do think thr early game progression could be tweaked to be more friendly to new players, especially the blueprints
I am on a CC team and a long time player of the game, without ever spending a dollar on it. I have probably around 10.5K garage power. I agree with this video. The players who pay for VIP and everything else for sale have a ginourmous advantage. With that said, i have seen guys with extremely low GP's put up great scores in team events, so GP isnt the end all be all, however, the game needs to make it relatively easy for newer players to get every vehicle so that they can play team events.
And make the epic parts more frequent across every box. It absolutely loves giving me the same epic parts over and over, typically for mono, moon lander, dirt bike. The only saving grace with the weekly solo events is that I can watch a 10 second ad to double my points, generally 9 or 10 going to 18 to 20 per match. Since they increased ticket refill to 60 gems, need those ads to finish a weekly event without spending gems since I can play every single day, especially on weekends when I'm out and about with the fam. I hope they figure it out. It's a fun game and I like the team im on
So true, one time when I was doing a cup the entire lobby was filled with hackers who finished in less than 10 seconds. Which was almost 3 times faster than me. The game is just getting very unfair and boring. I might quit soon
I can truly agree im an og player as well. It was good when you could get all vehicles easily and now the game is just too overcomplicated and almost impossible for new players to have actual improvements. This is really sad as hcr2 is dying and thats the reason i quitted. Bring old hcr2 back 😢😢😢😢
adventure tokens really did destroy adventure mode, I was getting barely enough until the bog, after that it's just not enough, I haven't unlocked a new map in months.
You know, i never had a single problem with just buying everything with coins, why we need a unique token/other form of currency for every single part of game content is not only hard to keep track of, but it also massively de-values coins as a whole, which really doesnt sit well with me
Hi jerry as my old I'd was not linked lost the progress of maxed vehicles and now playing after years but the blueprint system is weird I could not get the bus monowheel etc agreed ❤
I have been playing HCR2 since December of 2021, and i am still missing 2 adventure maps. If i could unlock maps with coins like people used to be able to, then i would 100% have done it by now.
As a person who didn't actually know that there was a community, it was hard i actually had to buy premium pass to remove ads, but thankfully i already had all vehicles until the new update came out and tbh they should remove the blueprint bullshit
I agree with this one i have been playing this game for like 7years now and getting the new stuff is to hard now especially when the update came out and the devs just dont care about the starting players like my frend joined a few days ago and quit instantly cus its to hard to get anything now cant even get the new vehicle rock bouncer and moon lander after all these years because of the coming updates its starting to get hard to play this game so im quitting
I started playing again in mid 2021 and in late 2022 I started learning about the meta and playing more frequently, then the token update hit. Now it 2024 I have only 11 maps, I am only vanguard 2 and only 3 cars with maxed base upgrades(No cars with max parts). Admittedly, at the time I played much more Cups than adventure. . Thank God that I brought all the cars before the new unlocking changes, otherwise I probly would have just quit. It can take me months to unlock new maps. My progression has slowed so much and it is just not as fun. The only reason I find it fun is because me my friend are always trying to beat each other's Adventure PBs, challenges and Cup PBs. Three of my favorite games are dying all due to neglect and greed them being Rocket League , Forza Horizon and sadly now Hill Climb 2 . Should just play Minecraft till these games die or fix themselves. Edit: just realized if FS screws this up they will have almost nothing to fall back on.
After the new update I did the math. 140k gems(xp boost), 112 mill coins and 360 hours of grinding xp. That finally did it for me. It is now a pure pay to win game. It would take years to fully upgrade with 1 hour grinding and watching commercials everyday. No thanks.
I can agree that this franchise is dying all because of era. They are trying to fit hcr2 into a more modern era but it doesn't work. That why many older players quit that why for newer players it's impossible to ges something that's why...... i think that Fingersoft is 🔪 their game just like any other gaming company following this "trend". I think it's time to #savehcr2 we have to spread this message (#savehcr2) maybe we can make it change it forever
Wow,you made this presentation so well! Although FS reduces the pe gems back to 20, there are still more problems which I hope they will get fixed. I promoted HCR2 to my friends but I dont say to play it bc its too p2w. OH WAIT NVM FS raised pe gems to 60 again blyat
Totally agree with your points🙌
I really hope FS sees this and changes something. It would be so sad for me to actually see the game, that I dedicated so much time, die completely just because of some mistakes by the developers. Let’s hope for the best
The game is totally fine but the developers are holding it back or ruining it
True Linus but FS won't listen bc they are really stupid
@@climberbrin6960 I second this.
I really hope finger soft sees this as well because its the game that i always loved playing its my entire childhood 😔😞😖😭
I think I have (almost) decided to stop posting HCR2 themed videos at this point, we get no contact with the developers so the game is basically going to shit. I am thinking of rebranding the channel to a vlogging channel tell me if you would still come stop by sometime to watch my videos😆😆
you know it's impossible to go from hcr2 to vlogging while keeping your audience, right?
I tried to spread this info in hcr2 ds but instantly got attacked by mods
I think you should try other mobile games cuz the audience probably enjoys those or perhaps driving games idk
same
An idea that would work well is to post roblox or minecraft videos. Even these games are mainly for kids, they have a very large audience.
Kids are everywhere, and kids need entertainment. Kids take up a whopping 80% of youtube audience. And games seem to be what really trending for them now.
I completely agree with this video, i quit the game because of many reasons and this was one of the main reasons. It became too tedious, too boring and the new updates were so pointless which did not add any fun just aesthetics which were also pointless. The worst update in my opinion is the adventure tokens. After this i just stopped adventure. It took me 8 months to unlock canyon. 8 Months!! By that time cuptown was introduced. Since then i pretty much stopped playing regularly as well
yeah same, just quitted last year because of adventure tokens (its very stupidly hard to grind), plus grinding for gems and coins is too boring, adding at least 1 map each update and also lacking new content for each update
You are exactly right. Fs has turned into greedy corporation who only wants your money.
They have ruined the game.
It took me 1 to get canyon💀
I've stopped playing because of the time I need to do to fully max out my account.ive only maxed out the upgrades on one vehicle and it's took me 6 months
At one point I had 2 mil coins and could not get any new map bc of that trash update
I guess I should quit playing hcr2 because of hackers 😞. Literally there are everywhere whether in cups leaderboard or in community showcase event or in adventure leaderboard even the boss levels are hacked 😭. This is the biggest reason for making me think to quit hcr2. Anyways nice video and keep growing 😊
I shouted "EXACTLY" so many times 😂
I'm going to do my best to popularize your video Jerry. I'm not exactly an og play r but I have been around in hcr2 as a noob for a long time so I understand. Even I feel like quitting now. I really hope fingersoft sees this video and comments on it 😔
Agree. I loved HCR2 so much, but I haven't played it much recently. I hope the developers will give one last squeeze on this game before HCR3 takes the crown...
I can't see myself starting over on HCR3. If 2 dies, I'm def out
@@BlyGuy We're all saying that, but you know for a fact you're downloading it day 1 of release. lol
@@LordKrocjust to try though
@@LordKroc sure, I will download it, but hard to see grinding in it, unless there is a mass exodus from 2
Fr tho...
you bring up some good points, I hope someone from fingersoft actually watches this and considers your points instead of ignoring everything like usual
Instructions unclear:all of the sudden,everything is fixed,hcr2 becomes the most popular game in existence and has an avarage of 15 million players playing daily,nitro gets nerfed,beast and lowrider get a free buff,refill costs 20 gems again,map creative is entirely free,tokens are removed and so are the blueprints,fa become richer than Microsoft and everything becomes perfect.
Loved this game 5, 10 or 12 years ago, why FS destroyed it for profit, IDK
As a new player it is actually really hard to get tokens and blueprints it took me 2 months and only have 167 blueprints.. i barely wanna play this game and I hope FS would see this vid
Glitches and bugs are also a big problem in adventure which demotivates the top players to try for new world records
dude this is so relatable
I totally agree with all the arguments you said in this video, I might quit the game for a month or two due to the game which is dying
so you take a break
A lot of good points in this video... Truly sad to see my favourite game being abandoned by the devs lately.. 😢
At this point I even find HCR1 more enjoyable, as it doesn't have complicated & useless features that are super hard for new players to get. You just unlock new maps & vehicles with coins, very easily.. It can take only a few months to get a maxed account on HCR1 if you play daily. Furthermore HCR1 doesn't have any sh*tty anticheat system and any incompetent support team.
I've pretty much quit playing HCR2 after late 2023, because of the bad updates, and 1.58.0 was the last straw for me. _Look how they massacred my boi.._
Great vid 🎉
ARGEE, HCR1 ARE SO MUCH FUN. Now new player are unable to play because the blueprints update which sucks and im very lucky that i unlocked every vehicle before the update. And i also quit the game at late 2023. Sometimes i will only claim chest reward and left the game immediently
I can agree with the last sentence. I used to be an oh player as i have mentioned and there just so many bad useless features that make it impossible to progress if you arent good at the game this is so sad.. 😭 even hcr1 is better and more enjoyable now...
You even got banned for no reason...
I feel that since late 2022, I've been let down by EVERY SINGLE UPDATE that FS has released. From parts that are way too overpowered to impossible limits in adventure maps to unfair cashgrabs, they're just squeezing more money out of us while making us quit the game. It's fucked up. They should realize that eventually, everyone's gonna quit and they're gonna end up bankrupt. Every time I play this game, I barely have any motivation (hence the lack of uploads on my channel) and wish that I could just go back to 2021, when I actually enjoyed the game and actively grinded daily. If I'm being honest, I don't expect anything to happen for the next couple of months at least. Fingersoft has continued to ignore all of the community's complaints and suggestions. They blatantly LIED about releasing ONE OF THE GREATEST, MOST ASKED-FOR FEATURES IN THE GAME (track editor), and continue to make the most shitty, filler updates EVER to get every last cent out of their "beloved" community.
I haven't quit yet, but nobody should be surprised if I do.
It's disgusting, sickening and heartbreaking to see my beloved game, the prequel (HCR) of which I started playing 8 years ago, be reduced to dirt and ashes by its own developers.
THIS.
Fingersoft is by far the most laziest developer I've ever played a game from since Gameloft, I don't have much motivation to even play this dying pile of sh*t. It's getting ridiculous, boring, frustrating, unplayable, stale af.
I agree with you on the filler updates, just something new and that's it, nothing good about it. After hearing about the reverted Public Event ticket refill prices to 20 gems from 60, I think FS is trying to control the amount of damage they've done, well it's too late, IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN 60 IN THE FIRST PLACE. 60 gems for 4 tickets is an absolute rip-off, I would've slapped the person who even thought of that stupid crap. If they add one more crappy thing, whether if it is a vehicle, map, or feature that is broken, I'm leaving. I've had enough of this sh*t, I cannot stand anymore sh*tty adventure maps, glitchy vehicles, cups that shouldn't be for new players but added as a Bronze or Silver League cup anyway. Wake your f*cking selves up Fingersoft.
FR😢
New copypasta just dropped
Why would you spend real $ on this game? Put in the time n watch ads and you should never have to spend real $
Great video Jerry! I hope they will listen to this because you're totally true, the game developers should interact more with the community, to know what has to be done
I hope so!
they don't, because they don't want too. 👍👍👍👍
Yes
@@theresetuser1202 and this is a very bad idea
And we cant do anything about it....😢
Completely Agreed with your words 🔥 i wish I could get my money back like I feel like it was a waste if I’m seeing how this game is dying 😢
the example of modded COC is a good example
since the modded version has a different server which consists of hackers only, it doesnt affect the real community who play the game legitly
when u said towards the end that you dont think anybody is maxxed, i queued a guy in community showcase today who was :>
but yeah everything u said was spot on
I've met a guy who got 10k in You Shall not Gas on stock hill climber. What a "skilled" player, must've been tyharding since day 1!
Totally agree. And you provided a lot of insight on things I was not aware of. I have been playing HCR2 ever since it was first released, having played HCR1 for many years. I'm certainly not a top player, but it is incredible how difficult it is to max out just one vehicle now. I had a VIP sub for a couple years which helped, but I recently dropped it and going back to non-VIP rewards is just painful. I had to temporarily re-activate VIP so that I could unlock the Rock Bouncer since it is basically impossible any other way. I've been with a great team for a while as well and have worked my way up as a top contributor for the team so I am not backing out yet, but it's incredible how I haven't even gotten some parts for the new vehicles yet- I still don't have Nitro for the Muscle Car for example, and without the Nitro part you don't have a chance at scoring high in the team events. I also hate how most of the recent vehicles they have released either break the game or are completely pointless. And I honestly can't remember the last new Cup that I enjoyed. Every one seems more frustrating than the last. I hope FingerSoft gets their act together. From what I have played of Lego Hill Climb Racing, it's gonna be even worse as far as the grind goes as well.
I aint reading allat

@@janetno1fan Yet you took the time to reply, well done champ.
Yup, I agree with you Jerry! I've been playing for 4 years with my Girlfriend, we have upgraded all the cars to maximum, but didn't like the new additions, so in the end we quited the game
The 4 worst things they did were rearranging the garage, introducing adventure tokens, making adventure mode unplayable until a certain level, and changing the prices of the vehicles.
We need to save this game!
i feel you bro im an og as well and it sucks to see this decline
Jerry, you really do speak from a lot of players perspectives. And I can extremely agree with your points about adventure tokens. Not only do the RNG factors of random car selections for adventure chest maps make you use your most un-upgraded and inexperienced vehicles, it also kills you early into your gameplay because of the lack of upgrades to get you a distance. And all the races give you not even hundreds of coins at a time so you're constantly put behind a paywall to upgrade your early starter cars. I have to wait months to get even just enough money to unlock final upgrades on my DUNE BUGGY. And even with a fully upgraded dune buggy I can't get past 4k Km on some adventures because of the RNG on attachment unlocks. I've played Hill Climb since release on the same google play account and I still haven't even gotten more than 1 fuel boost upgrade for the dune buggy, let alone my Muscle car. I'm still stuck with perfect landing boost and wheelie boost on the Muscle car. Let's not mention the RNG on the key unlocks. You have to work HARD for the keys not to mention the difficulty it is to nab the large keys for new players. But it doesn't even gift you enough money to upgrade a SINGLE THING on cars.
So far I've had to wait at least 1 year to finish just upgrading my engine on the Racing Truck. And I barely get anything for that car either. Another problem is the gem crates. Which are also entirely RNG based. Car parts, and Car selection in general! Making a free game based on gambling also for kids does not promote a good image for the playerbase. Part of me is sad and happy HL2 is dying because it's just become another cash grabber for the devs. HL1 was so much better because the coin rewards were so much more bountiful and could actually net a player money for a new map to experience within just a few hours let alone just days. But now I have to wait days just to get another adventure crate run and net nothing from it, and months to get a new map!
I totally agree of this entire video.
The agme developers are just sitting and just adding silly things to game to just earn money and don't care about the people playing this game....
Today Sabeer account is banned and they say we can't do nothing about this...hackers ruining the game and legit players being banned 🤨 what the heck is that....
For newbies, the game is just a time pass and boring.
For me, as a old player from Hcr2 (playing from 2018), i remember those old golden days where there were very few maps to play and no adventure tokens and all vehicles and maps to be purchased with gold and rank just.... but now a days the game is just ruined by adding these updates and the nost painful the nitro... becoz one who has nitro, dominates the whole lobby...whole others don't having this keep lagging behind....this made the loss of the skilled WRs of all time that were made so hard...but developers didn't care 😢😐😐🤧🤧🤧🤧
the adventure tokens made me unlock 5 new maps: I was able to get them through the multiplayer competitions.
I've been playing HC2 since the very beginning. I completely agree with your points. The newer changes make it annoying for new players.
I absolutely agree even tho i couldnt sometimes understand what you were saying because subtitles didnt catch but overall really good arguments. The devs do nothing good to the game
I totally agree with every point you said in this video.......
A point I would like to add is that in recent maps like canyon arena, cuptown the developers have become more lazy as they cant every bother to put fuels after a certain distance, the map are made for fun but getting restricted to go further after a point make game trash........
I thought maps were AI generated after like 15k, wtf
@@BLET_55artem55 but things like fuel has some algorithm according to which it generate so it can be changed by doing some coding....
I will say that Fingersoft has done a good with some of their updates. They just re-added the 20 gem refill
which was a common complaint. Although it’s annoying for those who are not VIP, the track editor has very few flaws. Just hoping they get rid of the many hackers in the game now, I’ve gotten two in one cup before 🙏
Finally a hcr2 video with voice and no annoying music
I am glad you liked it :D
I feel like just need to add a whole rework of some of this stuff, as you said like the adventure tokens events and vehicle blueprints. I would make it so you now get adventure tokens on the adventure road as rewards for certain milestones
it used to be so fun in 2017 and 2018😢 i miss those days of hcr2
The part where you said it’s hard for newer players because of the parts and how many vehicles they release per year is so right, when I started the game,the maximum GP was 9400 I think, now I have 9100GP but the maximum is now 12000and something,it is so hard to max everything and then have enough spare parts for the next vehicle
man this is so true, ive almost quit at this point tbh. a problem is also that fingersoft are removing real players like sabeer and jumpi wich is insane. totally agree with this video
a very useful speech,
you literally deserve more than 100k subs
I agree 💯 because i am legendary and i still can't get the adventure cars yet
may the game rest in peace😔
Fr If they continue like this, at some point you'll have to pay for things like adventure mode or money for each map or something like that i hope they change something cause many people are quitting 😞
I always knewed about some of the problems that you said in the video, such as the game progressively getting P2W and slower account progress over time.
The best thing to be added to progress the account was the OG seasonal chests, even though they were OP, they helped so much to max out the account by giving legendary and epic parts alongside with some gems to help to enjoy more the game.
thanks, now i'm demotivated to play it again. i used to play it as a kid with no wifi and i did enjoy it, then i reuploaded it like one year ago and i noticed something was wrong with how they were adding shops and tokens everywhere, something was off. now i redownload it again, notice that it is maybe overly complex and the same day i see your video and understand maybe i should not be nostalgic about it and try to play again
completely agreed, i won't play the game again until they fix some of this shit
2:43 I'm sad that Fingersoft took me away from ads.
A few days ago I got a popup asking me to do something to protect my privacy, I just wanted to skip it but I couldn't and I don't have any ads
For a player who didn't buy vip I think it's terrible
I would like to see a part 2. there's many more topics to talk about like how fs shouldn't be lazy with adventure maps after 10k and making adventure challenges in weekly challenges not just 200m but actually interesting and challenging but not to hard for new players. Under 10k is good maybe 7k depending on the map
Согласен с тобой. Мне кажется, разрабы своим отношением окончательно добьют игру.
I agree man.. I don't know will i quit hcr 2 or not.. I have no motivation because my friends quit and its getting bored of these bad uptades.
I really made up my mind to delete acc in hcr2 ...
Cauze those things
Trully u said is correct ..
They are just ruining our og game ... 😢😢
Hope Fs finds this out....
Finally you are back.....we cant wait for a next live stream 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Finally someone gets how hard it is and how tedious HCR has made the beginning of the game
Hey Jerry, I am completely on your side. Hcr2 is such a cool game but fs is holding back the true potential of the game by the enormous paywall I really see every single day. I am actively playing for around 1,5 hours a day every day for 2,5 years now and I only have 4700 gp, which feels like you can’t do anything on top level
Great vid Jerry! Hackers are getting worse. It's ridiculous.
But luckily jerry's cannel isnt dying, etc bc of great voiceover!😃
The subtitles are also funny🤣🤣
I agree with your points. I am an OG HCR2 player and still have some fun, but ever since the addition of adventure tokens, I just stopped playing adventure altogether. Nitro is way too overpowered and it is basically necessary in order to win either events or community showcases. The game just feels tedious and the lack of developer and community communication/involvement is what kills most games. I still don't even have Rock Climber because of how hard it is to obtain in public events. I don't want this for HCR2. None of us do. The past few updates have been very underwhelming, and it saddens me to see a a game that I have put so much time into slowly die. I just hope that it will get better, but it probably won't.
"Only the biggest players can compete at the highest level", that IS the definition of highest level. Also, the ads are minimal, not too annoying and you can usually skip within a couple seconds. Progress isn't too slow either, you just have to win your races. Also, I think it's good that it takes a while to max-out everything; if you want to be OP, you should be willing to work for it
This is a video, I feel like every HCR2 player as well as devs should watch.
This video will be an eye-opener for devs.
I quit because I changed my phone and I couldn't log in my account because hcr doesn't support facebook still and I had to write to fingersoft but they sent me back a list of 20 things to do to log in my account
I've played hcr2 for a long time and im sad to see it going away. It feels just like a lot of other companies who are giving up on development and only focus on profit. The community has been neglected and the game is sadly dying. I only hope fingersoft does something soon
That video is so good and relatable. If someone knows me, they will know I am in PL National and I quitted the game because of the exact reasons you talked about in your video. The game in last year or two became too P2W and is slowly getting more and more boring. I hope FS does something because other top players start to lose interest in the game which may lead to hcr completely dying
Bro took my words on updates like blueprints.
I strongly strongly agree with you. Fs has ruined their game. Old players are losing motivation to play the game now and I see why and it's just very difficult for the new one's to progress. It's only the players like myself having 5 6k gp that still play it much because there is so much to achieve the recent updates aren't effecting much. They are pretty much useless.
I really liked the video. Fs is just killing itself as they can't get much new players and the old one's will quit the game certainly after some time. I think fs should fix all that as it has so much potential
I got lucky to start my journey in 2022 before bad updates comes FS community managers good at not doing their job, but just want to squeeze money from us too much good games died from this. Rip ,pvz, tf2, dark deception, etc 😢
Agree ❤
It's sad that HCR2 has just become another Clash Royale...
Started in 2019 but quit recently 😢
It is just sad how a game of my childhood is dead for the developers of the game. It is actually the first game I downloaded back in 2017 the first and the only game I actually played but now I don't know how to do with A LOT OF HACKERS
I hope the game revives from its own grave
I have a friend who was a pretty new player and I have been playing for years. I actually needed to help him get all the adventure maps because he just wasn't good at long distances. Even with my help he still needed a few months to get all the maps.
I miss the "only coins" times... After they made maps unlocking by adventure stars, it was ok, but not so long ago they added those tokens and since that I haven't played this game so much
Totally agreed with you like i have to wait for a event that haves a rock bouncer as a reward after spending 200 400 or somehow 600 points in events
I love this game so much. I have put so much time and effort into this game and i dont want all of that to go to waste by qutting. I guess i have been playing the game on hard mode. I decided that i would have to max out a vehicle before i bought the next one. But this game has been so fun. I really hope the devs see this video and consider doing somthing.
I have been playing hcr2 adventure pretty consistently (I finished the trophy road) and still stuck at mines with 400+ tokens and the next map is desert. I wished they made adventure tokens at least easily to get, like appearing in the maps as collectables like coins for you to get but less common. And I think thats the only problem I have with adventure tokens. They are just simply too hard to get if you're starting out in the game. Cause you cant get far in adventure.
As for these FS community managers , I had a chance to talk to them twice on Stream, but I didn't discuss problems because they weren't there (with Fingersoft itself in August, and with David in December(I know, I forgot))
The only thing I showed them in August were things in Map Maker and the bug with the terrain disappearing
5:40 As someone playing since 1.5, i completely agree. I quit in late 2020-early 2021 because hcr2 was befoming too stale.
Yep exactly the point that I am making
Well last time I quit the game and then I came back when it was the target event (Cachery) and I couldn’t get good scores bc I didn’t have bus thrusters
A great example could be clash of clans, they made the beginning progress super fast to catch up with old players which makes gane more enjoyable
yeah bro spoke what was in my heart for many days😢😢😢
I used to play the game for many years, playing daily. Around the same time nitro dropped, and before that, i struggled to keep enjoying the game, and contributing to team events. I dropped from CC, bouncing from teams, down the ranks due to inactivity, until i eventually quit entirely. I remember when the game first came out, and Its sad to me to see the game in this position, and to no longer enjoy it. I do agree on the decline of time trial. I used to love time trial, it was the main thing I played. Though over time, my love for it dwindled, and nitro was the nail in the coffin.
This is the first hcr yt video ive watched in many months...
Seeing games go downhill feels like a common trend that I hate to see. Used to enjoy hcr, and games like minecraft, and more specifically hypixel skyblock. Also the Pokemon series is a prime example. There are MANY more examples where the game creators feel like they're just getting lazy with it, or ignorant. Imo, Terraria is one of few old games left, that I still truly enjoy, that hasnt gone to shit.
I doubt anyone will read this far, especially seeing as hcr content has died alongside the game, will anyone prove me wrong?
Terraria is a great game because they listen to their players and care about the community, that's why its done so well.
@terraria4213-re2ns Exactly! I remember a few months back when Red was talking in the forums with people. People were able to make suggestions to positively influence the game.
Time and time again, I use Terraria as a reference as for what other games should strive to be.
Minecraft and terraria seem to be the only good games now,also Fortnite.The fact that they are still goated games even after so many years just amazes me,look at hcr2,it survived 4 years on a decent popularity and then went downhill,while Minecraft is 15 fukin years old and still has 2-3 million people playing daily,which is triple the amount of fingersoft's avarage daily players,terraria is a no-brainer,one if the greatest games of all time,Fortnite devs literally add everything they see trendy which is funny but good.
so im relatively new to hcr2, and i completely agree with this video. i started last may, and have played pretty regularly since then, and i currently have 5.6k gp. i dont know much about blueprints because i intentionally unlocked all the cars before the update, but for me i can say the beginning of the game is definitely absurdly hard, and adventure tokens are complete garbage. ive been playing adventure maps consistently since i got the game, i have 1.6m stars and i havent even unlocked gloomvale yet 💀. grinding adventure tokens has been a slow and painful process, even with me doing public events for tokens and my daily adventure chests. getting good leveled parts is also a nightmare. i have all of my vehicles 15/15/15/15 so leveling isnt an issue, but the parts are a pain in the ass. cars like motocross, bus, or even rally car are unplayable without decent parts. i think the games concept is cool, but i do think thr early game progression could be tweaked to be more friendly to new players, especially the blueprints
I agree that this game is unenjoyable as a f2p player
In brawl stars, the mapmaker is also super fun to play. I mostly play mapmaker only
I am on a CC team and a long time player of the game, without ever spending a dollar on it.
I have probably around 10.5K garage power. I agree with this video. The players who pay for VIP and everything else for sale have a ginourmous advantage.
With that said, i have seen guys with extremely low GP's put up great scores in team events, so GP isnt the end all be all, however, the game needs to make it relatively easy for newer players to get every vehicle so that they can play team events.
And make the epic parts more frequent across every box. It absolutely loves giving me the same epic parts over and over, typically for mono, moon lander, dirt bike.
The only saving grace with the weekly solo events is that I can watch a 10 second ad to double my points, generally 9 or 10 going to 18 to 20 per match.
Since they increased ticket refill to 60 gems, need those ads to finish a weekly event without spending gems since I can play every single day, especially on weekends when I'm out and about with the fam.
I hope they figure it out. It's a fun game and I like the team im on
I just started to play the game November month because i haven't played the game over years and i am still struggling to chech up to people
So true, one time when I was doing a cup the entire lobby was filled with hackers who finished in less than 10 seconds. Which was almost 3 times faster than me. The game is just getting very unfair and boring. I might quit soon
if they would fix the damn performance issues on newer phones I would be playing 24/7...
I can truly agree im an og player as well. It was good when you could get all vehicles easily and now the game is just too overcomplicated and almost impossible for new players to have actual improvements. This is really sad as hcr2 is dying and thats the reason i quitted. Bring old hcr2 back 😢😢😢😢
adventure tokens really did destroy adventure mode, I was getting barely enough until the bog, after that it's just not enough, I haven't unlocked a new map in months.
they really are squeezing the game before hcr3..
in my opinion: If something in a game is slow, there should (almost) always be a harder but faster AND FREE way to do it.
2:27 my average chest level when i don't have adventure chest:
Yup i have Free rock bouncer in public event with Bronze III
The problem is the hackers are nuking the game with their ass records. There are now over a thousand hackers which has skill issue.
You know, i never had a single problem with just buying everything with coins, why we need a unique token/other form of currency for every single part of game content is not only hard to keep track of, but it also massively de-values coins as a whole, which really doesnt sit well with me
Hi jerry as my old I'd was not linked lost the progress of maxed vehicles and now playing after years but the blueprint system is weird I could not get the bus monowheel etc agreed ❤
I have been playing HCR2 since December of 2021, and i am still missing 2 adventure maps. If i could unlock maps with coins like people used to be able to, then i would 100% have done it by now.
As a person who didn't actually know that there was a community, it was hard i actually had to buy premium pass to remove ads, but thankfully i already had all vehicles until the new update came out and tbh they should remove the blueprint bullshit
I agree with this one i have been playing this game for like 7years now and getting the new stuff is to hard now especially when the update came out and the devs just dont care about the starting players like my frend joined a few days ago and quit instantly cus its to hard to get anything now cant even get the new vehicle rock bouncer and moon lander after all these years because of the coming updates its starting to get hard to play this game so im quitting
And to counter these problems all they do is add a new vehicle or a new part and it makes it just more harder for the new players and even for pros
I started playing again in mid 2021 and in late 2022 I started learning about the meta and playing more frequently, then the token update hit. Now it 2024 I have only 11 maps, I am only vanguard 2 and only 3 cars with maxed base upgrades(No cars with max parts). Admittedly, at the time I played much more Cups than adventure. . Thank God that I brought all the cars before the new unlocking changes, otherwise I probly would have just quit. It can take me months to unlock new maps. My progression has slowed so much and it is just not as fun. The only reason I find it fun is because me my friend are always trying to beat each other's Adventure PBs, challenges and Cup PBs.
Three of my favorite games are dying all due to neglect and greed them being Rocket League , Forza Horizon and sadly now Hill Climb 2 .
Should just play Minecraft till these games die or fix themselves.
Edit: just realized if FS screws this up they will have almost nothing to fall back on.
Back then:500k coins for all cars and 1mil adventure point for everything
Now almost a year for everything
After the new update I did the math. 140k gems(xp boost), 112 mill coins and 360 hours of grinding xp. That finally did it for me. It is now a pure pay to win game. It would take years to fully upgrade with 1 hour grinding and watching commercials everyday. No thanks.
Im not quitting, im just waiting for the frkn rock bouncer to be available for everyone ToT
DNS sink hole (Pi-Hole); I have never had an ad in HCR!
I can agree that this franchise is dying all because of era. They are trying to fit hcr2 into a more modern era but it doesn't work. That why many older players quit that why for newer players it's impossible to ges something that's why...... i think that Fingersoft is 🔪 their game just like any other gaming company following this "trend". I think it's time to #savehcr2 we have to spread this message (#savehcr2) maybe we can make it change it forever
I’ll definitely watch some vlogs ❤
as a new player to this game, whenever i saw a cool video I'll open my game and realized that my lv3 JS can't even kangaroo successfully💀
Wow,you made this presentation so well! Although FS reduces the pe gems back to 20, there are still more problems which I hope they will get fixed. I promoted HCR2 to my friends but I dont say to play it bc its too p2w.
OH WAIT NVM FS raised pe gems to 60 again blyat
So it wasn't just an impression? I really thought it was always 60 gems even though i knew it was 20
Where did u heard that,did someone told u?? I didn't know they actually saw the controversy surrounding around the 60 gems refill,great to hear.
I played the pe and they reduced the price back to 20 gems@@CineverseSculpt
if fingersoft keeps it like this, i could definitely see fingersoft going bankrupt in the future.
