Credits play a central role in The Crew 2. You buy cars, boats, airplanes, and various cosmetic embellishments with them. But how do you farm credits most effectively? We provide you with a few tips along the way.
The Crew 2 is a racing game with a huge scope. Cars, boats, and airplanes are just waiting to be purchased and upgraded by you. For that, like most times, you need money – or credits. Drivers and flyers are probably interested in how to earn a lot of money in a short amount of time.
We have taken a closer look at this and will give you tips on farming credits here.
Earn money through races
The probably best method to get rich quickly in The Crew 2: Race after race! Therefore, it makes sense to choose the shortest one and repeat it. Not particularly exciting, but very effective, as these races usually take about 2 minutes per round with some skill.
The nice side effect: You also receive parts for your cars along the way, allowing you to eventually drive faster rounds by upgrading your vehicles with them.

More tips to earn more and easier credits

Power Boat:

Play online with friends
In The Crew 2, it is not essential to finish a race in first place. As long as you land in the top 3, you receive the full reward. Even when you are with friends, this rule applies. However, if you compete as a crew, the effect of this rule becomes particularly significant.
You can lose – and still win! So if you are with friends and finish in last place, it’s not tragic as long as someone from your crew is in the top 3. In your group, everyone receives the full reward. This makes farming much more enjoyable.
