How are rewards calculated?

Recommended Posts

Honestly, i don't get rewards. After being struck with countless career progress resets i finally made it to Pro class. There, in the event selection screen the game tells me: Maximum Event Reward 141'600.

So i started my new career championship and ended up in Scotland. I really suck in Scotland and ended up placing 25th or something like that and i got about 100k as a reward. I was surprised i still got so much despite placing so badly, but i was glad i did since i spent way too much money on repairs there.

The next day i wanted to continue my career by doing the next rally, but then i got hit with another random career reset. The new championship started with Scotland again and i really didn't want to drive it, so i just retired (i got 0 championship points anyway, so was in the same position as before the reset). Next up was Argentina, which i won by about 10 seconds. I was looking for a nice reward i could use to upgrade the R5 car i recently bought, but i only got 80k...

TL;DR: Out of an alleged maximum of 141k, placing 25th in Scotland gives you 100k, placing first in Argentina gives you 80k. What the hell? How are the rewards determined?

Probably by km and not the time spent on track. The amount of km might make up for the positions you got in each country.

yes, @somethingthing is right. it's decided by km driven, maybe with some sort of multiplier for the difficulty level if you're doing career (though I'm far from certain about that). so yeah, Argentina only has about 15km of unique roads, whereas Scotland has like 25-26km.

and yes, you don't get all that much less cash from coming 25th vs coming 1st. community and AI challenges are the same

Bonus (and Promo, possibly?) community challenges often have multipliers of 25%-50% (maybe even higher?).
