Didn't get RaceNet livery for Fiesta (Dirt Showdown)

Recommended Posts

Hi

I'm having trouble with RaceNet in Dirt Showdown. I have signed up, and the game says "Good news! You are connected to RaceNet." However I didn't get the livery for the Fiesta that was supposed to be the reward for signing up. Also didn't get the 20 000 in-game credits. I have checked the current RaceNet event which seems to be Street-Pro Domination, and I have completed it, but my result does not appear. Does that mean that I'm not really connected? Could you help me get the livery and tell me if I can do anything with the event?
Thank you

Peter

It looks like RaceNet for Dirt Showdown doesn't exist anymore. The event is always the same, and players don't get rewards. I have downloaded a 100% save file, so the problem for me is fixed. However it''s sad that Codemasters abandoned the game like this. I don't say they should work on it for years, but at least they could have left some of the servers on.

Same here, playing on Linux (if that makes any difference).

I'll point out that after finishing the game I still can't upgrade all cars to their maximum.
Maybe racenet (and multiplay in general) was intended to earn you the extra money needed for that?

Dirt Showdown while it still connects to Racenet from PS3, it looks like certain Multiplayer features have been shutdown. Challenges to your friends can't be sent, the weekly Racenet Challenge doesn't change, and Racenet uploads your times and these can be displayed from the Racenet Showdown page, but the servers are no longer unlocking the Racenet awards for beating any of the achievements. Fix the servers, or else turn them off altogether.

Don't turn off the servers, I play this game with friends online. I don't care about the other stuff, that's just fluff, but don't turn off the ability to play with friends online please.

I'm experiencing the same issue on Linux.  Mine may stem from not having to sign up; I had a codemasters account from before I got Showdown.  @DeputyDiRT I hope that information helps track down the bug.

Well, everyone knows good ol Microsoft would give us a cheap crap abandoned game, just for us to be discouraged enough to just go buy Halo or whatever to make them a buck. For the first week it would not even run while on my external hard drive. As all my others do just fine. Now this. Waa waa waaa, NEXT

Deputy Dirt, any news?  I actually bought the game and can't connect my Xbox account using the code.  I LOVE this game and playing it on-line.  Is this something that is broken, or is it something that is "abandoned"?

I'm having the same issue. The game tells me to create a profile and enter a code, which I did, I linked my Xbox account, it says I'm connected, and that's it. If you abandoned the game, you could have at least removed the prompt to register.

Still happeneing. I just bought this game a few days ago and I am disappointed that I can't get the 20,000 in game cash. I don't care so much about the livery.

Just got the game and tried to get the 20000 and livery like they advised in the game. Didn't get anything so far. Any news on this?

Who develops a game that can not be completed?

It's even more mind boggling than Grid Autosport. If you think I'm buying Rally 2.0 before being able to grab all the achievements in Dirt Showdown, think again.
