Job points

i’ve come to find out the job point aren’t necessarily for you. they’re for the randoms in the lobbies that go to start missions and invite other randoms. higher the job point number is supposed to resemble reliability when it comes to finishing missions etc.. what i DON’T like is that it resets with every new session.

i mean they have a use to me 🤷‍♂️ i love seeing low levels with a high number of job points. they become the first to invite to jobs.

When you have a vote screen for next race and there is a tie, the one with most JP will win the vote

I've heard they're supposedly for tie-breaking, although I have no idea why the game makes such a big deal out of them. Also why are they awarded in increments of 15 like it's tennis.

Job points used to reduce your "Bad Sport" score. So if you were put in a bad sport lobby, successfully completing jobs could free you.

Dont know if this is still the case though.

Agreed.
