The amount of XP earned from global events has been increased considerably, have to score within the brackets to get it though.

Much faster than using explore mode.

Todd Batty said that he kept playing Vengeance Global Event and got 100,000 XP each run and got Elise to level 11.

I'm going to try that later. But I got in the Diamond bracket yesterday in Broken Elbow and only got 10,000 XP.

Not sure why that happened?

What was the drop cost? Maybe its connected to that?

Makes no difference. I joined a global event with a 1 million credit drop cost, got in the Gold bracket, and still only got 10,000 XP.

that sounds like my pension scheme....

They've released the patch notes, and a short guide for the RiderNet Radio.

"Players will get more experience points when playing in Global Events."

Ha! Good one.

Been reading on other forums that the xp in GE doesn't kick in untill your second run. Make one low scoring run, then restart and beat it.

The larger the difference in score/time, the larger the pay out.

Not tested it yet, my son is watching cartoons. Will post when i get a chance to try it.

Edited the OP to show all the patch notes!

It seems the amount of XP earned for repeat run in GE's is tied to your high score bracket.

20,000 for bronze
40,000 for silver
60,000 for gold

Im assuming it goes higher by 20,000 for the next two brackets but i couldn't achieve any scores good enough to test it.

I also tried to set up my own custom event to hit the diamond bracket and farm xp but the bonuses dont seem to work for created events.

When I got Griff up to level 11 the other day, I was playing Explore and getting between 100-150 thousand each time.

Basically, Explore is still quicker for leveling up your riders.

[Cannonbait]

how are you earning that much, i very rarely get over 100 thousand unless im collecting geotags and snowflakes.

How the HELL!!!

If you beat your rivals, you earn more XP.

And if you're, say, 6th amongst your friends on a drop and you beat all of them, you get more XP for beating more than one person in one go.
