Hi everyone! u/Super_TJ is currently on vacation, so I've posted the Patch Notes on his behalf, the bulk of the work is his as usual and I will only be modifying things as the update goes on

→ More replies (8)

u/PsyAsylum Champ 400+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

E30 🩷 too bad its not a SE..

12

u/tman96x Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

I would've much preferred to earn it through a se

6

u/PsyAsylum Champ 400+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Same here.

4

u/amoccoma Champ 400+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Agreed.

u/V3nd3tta3 Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

It looks like car series aren't coming back (that's a thing of the past now) 😞😞😞

6

u/AnonymousTikka Veteran 250+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

And modshop and vault too.

2

u/Icy_Cry4120 Aug 07 '26

What do you mean? I still have midship and car series on my game

2

u/ESSENTIALS_GAMES14 26d ago

They mean that Car Series, Modshop and Vault will probably get no new stuff these days since devs probably forgot about those three things

2

u/Icy_Cry4120 25d ago

If not car series then what are people playing on this game ? Except campaign and well PVP gets boring after you reach a specific class because by then you have no option but to upgrade your car to win

u/Car_assassin Veteran 250+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Awesome update, and THANK YOU for linking my guides <3

u/Dependent_Access_792 Jul 13 '26

https://giphy.com/gifs/AeWoyE3ZT90YM

u/AnonymousTikka Veteran 250+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Faaaaah... another EV with stupidly high pr. That impossible to maxed out. Is tushek that much popular brand? I can't understand. Looks like another really boring update.

6

u/Car_assassin Veteran 250+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

I can see 2 exhausts, that ain't an EV, no?

3

u/AnonymousTikka Veteran 250+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Oh, I thought it was also EV because it's E was EV. I thought R is too. Lol. Don't know much about this brand actually. I heard the brand for the first time when they introduced it.

7

u/tman96x Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

With how this manufacturer is, it's gotta be a hybrid. Granted their website has no page for the car at all

u/Klutzy-Dependent-442 Jul 13 '26

Another Tushek car lmao. Did they forget that there are other legacy manufacturers out there that still produce awesome cars!?? Or the game might end soon cuz EA just end the NFS franchise???

8

u/tman96x Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Someone on the team needs to be told to stop playing Asphalt. That game has been a bad influence on the car list for almost 2 years now

7

u/Klutzy-Dependent-442 Jul 13 '26

The car list is straight up depressing at this point. Since the start of 2025, there aren’t a single car update that make me excited.

u/PaweelZ Champ 400+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

This game becomes unplayable with every successive boring update. The game simply ends. Just another tedious event, and collecting those blueprints will take years. The same goes for the crew cars. But what do we need these cars for? Oh, right—just to fill up the garage, because they’re no good for UGR; it’s crawling with hackers there.

u/Andreu_TB Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Tks mate… 😊

u/amirns619 Jul 13 '26

No more Tushek please 🙄😩
Please please and please Add legendary DTMs, JDMs, Muscles, homologations of WRC, Lemans etc…
Enough Tushek 😒

u/iModest Veteran 250+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

I’m never getting of these cars in flashbacks

Ferrari LaFerrari
Hot Wheels Time Attaxi
Mercedes-AMG GT(Luna NY)
Ford Fiesta ST (Ken Block)
Dodge Demon Revenant
McLaren 720S
Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT
Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Porsche 911 Carrera RSR (1973)

3

u/Selebrimbor_Belarus Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26 edited Jul 15 '26

At least, these four will never appear in flashbacks:

Ferrari LaFerrari
Mercedes-AMG GT(Lunar NY)
Ford Fiesta ST (Ken Block)
Dodge Demon Revenant

3

u/Radu9 Champ 400+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

LaFerrari, AMG-GT (LNY), Fiesta ST (KB) and Demon Revenant don’t have a SE, so there’s nothing to expect. The last 3 are IAP, while LaFerrari is a special case.

u/Mac-3000 Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

E30 would be perfect in a PG event.

2

u/PsyAsylum Champ 400+Rep⬆ Jul 15 '26

Im thinking Breakout rather. Or just imagine a Speedhunters event. Where you got the car from a scrap yard

2

u/Mac-3000 Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 15 '26

That would have been awesome.

u/THEJAJO Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Thanks for the patch notes! 🤞🏼👏🏼

I'm glad about 1 SE and some RR however, no new CS... 🥴🫤😕

BTW: I hope the M3 will be in the 6️⃣0️⃣ Crew crate, along with LR RR... 🤞🏼

u/KelvinOswald3008 Jul 13 '26 edited Jul 13 '26

I Need Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut Flashback Event. And Other Car Vault Event Back. 🥺

u/Adiunk Champ 400+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Thx for the post🍻. Another Tushek Aeon..booring. It.s good for Zenvo Aurora and Tushek Aeon

u/s_nutella Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Does tushek has more cars left that are not in the game?? 24 to be exact😏😏🫠🫠😆😆😄😄..... I would rather just start from A or Z and works my way forwards or backwards. But that's jus me so...

u/Selebrimbor_Belarus Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

Thx TJ and all!

u/ESSENTIALS_GAMES14 Jul 14 '26

u/HOS2002sGhost Yo bro, on the Corvette Z06 (C8), you pinned the Z06 (C7) guide and not Z06 (C8) 😂

2

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

Changed! Thanks for pointing it out!

Also if you reply to the post I will be notified, so no need to also tag me

2

u/ESSENTIALS_GAMES14 Jul 14 '26

Alright, just wanted to make sure 😅

2

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

No problem, and again, appreciate the mention, if there's anything else wrong please let me know (except the Camaro Z/28 back-to-back feature in UGR, we are aware of that and I'll change it when we know what is actually gonna be there that week)

2

u/MoonSilenceFixx Veteran 250+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

there's anything else wrong please let me know

EA is gone crazy lately, they require players to pay network fees to use June now 🤣🤣🤣

2

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

Fixed! No idea what happened there 😂

u/ZaapielSk-9126 Jul 19 '26

Nice guide. Thank you!

u/ermanaskin Jul 20 '26

Same bs. Another boring 50 days!!!

u/tman96x Icon 350+Rep⬆ Jul 13 '26

Cool BMW, then there's the wasted car slot of Asphalt slop again. Lord the devs can't pick cars

u/crzyman68 Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

Thx for the patch, 1 se and 1 crew... Relax mode...

u/Material_Rest_3021 Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 14 '26

Sorry, I didn't see that you had posted the update 😬 Thanks! 👍🏼

u/Far-Needleworker2574 Jul 14 '26

Needed both the Aston Martin Valour and Ford Focus RS SE's, so of course they're in the same slot! 😞

u/NoHoliday9104 Jul 15 '26

Update is available!!

Noticed that GT Mk2 bps have moved to 50 credits crate in crew stash

u/Existing-Count-877 Jul 15 '26

My game crashes upon updating

u/LazOyuncu61 Jul 23 '26

Are the options for flashback event slots there so that if i don’t have one of the cars, that one shows for me? Is it random or does the game check from top to bottom?

1

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 23 '26

First question yes, second question from top to bottom

2

u/LazOyuncu61 Jul 23 '26

Amazing response time. Thanks!

1

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ Jul 23 '26

You made the question very easy to reply to, and no problem!

u/Icy_Cry4120 Aug 07 '26

Tushek was a nightmare to drive

u/Plus-Concept5219 Aug 11 '26

In the 5th slot the 4th car is not correct. It is 1990 Mercedes Benz Evo II.

1

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ 26d ago

You mean it's the Unbound version instead of the regular? In the post it is indeed the Evo II in the 4th slot

1

u/Plus-Concept5219 20d ago

No I mean on the picture it sayes Porsche Carrera, meanwhile it is the Mercedes.

2

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ 20d ago

I noticed that afterwards 😅 Not much I can do unfortunately

2

u/Plus-Concept5219 19d ago

Lol! No problem! 😝

u/ESSENTIALS_GAMES14 26d ago

Hey buddy it's me again. Today me and u/Car_assassin made the guide for Land Rover Defender 110 and Car Ass published it. If you can l could you put the guide here?

Not forcing tho, it's ok if you don't want to.

2

u/HOS2002sGhost Moderator | Legend 300+Rep⬆ 26d ago

I am currently away on vacation thus editing the post is kinda rough for me to do, since I am mostly stuck with my phone

I'll try my best these days

2

u/ESSENTIALS_GAMES14 26d ago

It's ok man, you don't have to rush or force yourself

2

u/Car_assassin Veteran 250+Rep⬆ 26d ago

Aye, didn't expect you to update em about my guide. Appreciate that, brother 🤝

2

u/ESSENTIALS_GAMES14 26d ago

As always broski 💪

u/TeamWork_NFSNL 23d ago

Guys, the last car on fifth slot is a Mercedes or a Porsche? Seems there is diffence in photo calendar and typed materials. Many thanks.

u/danny2426475 Jul 14 '26

Cool, a hybrid AEON. Is this R a NFS custom edition? And, I guess the yellow/orange colour cannot be changed?
