GT Real Racing - damn alerts

[WP8fan]

I'll get like 10 alerts reminding me to play. It won't save my volume settings. No new cars, tracks or challenges.

Do you have GT racing on SD card? Are you on Windows Phone 8.1? You can turn off the alerts by turning off the background task of GT racing. All Gameloft games are running in background by default.

Thank you. Yes I made sure it was not running in the background and turned off notifications within the game. I am on WP8. It's not on an SD card.

This was the reason I ended up uninstalling the game before I even really got to play it properly.

Even if there is a fix, having to force the game to shut up on that level just shows how bad the practice is on Gameloft's front =/

Now it's crashing on the Gameloft splash screen. It does this even after rebooting the phone. :[

I reinstalled and disabled the toast notification. It has no option for disabling it once the game is installed.

It works. No more notifications.

Shame there is no option within the game to disable toast notifications.

 

[WP8fan]

Sounds good. I'd prefer not to do that because I don't want to lose my cars/points.

I would accept this bugs just to play it on 512 ram

 

[SAM 77]

I spoke to soon notifications are back. grrrrrr

Sam,

I can't even play anymore. The game exits on the GameLoft splash screen.

I wonder what GameLoft Ryan has to say.

That sounds like an issue that could be remedied with a new install. If it persists, definitely contact our support.

Regarding the notifications (I actually just posted about this in my stickied thread): We just sent in a hotfix that addresses and solves this problem. We are now just waiting on it to get approved by MS Sorry again for the problems this has caused!

Thanks GLR. I will wait for update instead of uninstalling and re-installing... this might help me to avoid losing my cars that I have so far.

Tried new update and still not getting past the splash screen. Uninstalled.

Sorry to hear that!

Is the hotfix now live?

 

[Gameloft_Ryan]

Yup, the game should not be spamming alerts 24/7.

GLR, a lot of reviews in the Windows Phone Store are complaining about the GT Racing crashing on the Gameloft screen. This is the exact problem I was having.

Great, I'll give it another try then. =)

this is the second time I have had this problem. I don't want to lose progress again. There is NO cloud saving in this game. Very annoyed.. And no, I don't have a Facebook account. This wasn't a problem in asphalt 8 which seems to have in built cloud saving. I spent ?25 IAP here. I don't want to lose about 25 hours worth of game time and re install it again.

 

[Zeem Frostmaw]

And no, I don't have a Facebook account.

Then make one. Its really not difficult.
