- Aggressive subscription paywalls immediately post-onboarding drive negative sentiment and churn among new users.
The SWOT
- Competitive leaderboard mechanics drive social retention
- Granular G-force telemetry provides performance differentiation
- Localized mapping improvements could recover regional trust
- Manual start/stop controls for acceleration tests
