1. Add a Braking Line only option. It is already dynamic, just let us toggle off the green entirely... if we want to. Please!
1.1. Have the ideal line and braking line disappear at the front of the car. Having it appear behind the car is pointless, obtrusive, and nausea inducing. Allowing the braking line to appear behind the car could make sense as long as it will still fade and disappear when we slow down enough.
2. Running/rolling start "optional" in all race types, career and race weekend. Especially Qualifying, so that first lap counts! Tires should be auto warmed as much as they would after 1 lap in this mode. Let us start 1 or 2 turns before the starting line. As an option this respects players' time. This helps with #5 below too.
3. "Optional" custom number of pit stops required in all game types, especially Race Weekend and Career. Let us choose if we want to require pits at all and how many. This ties to the next.
4. More dynamic weather and smoother transitions in all game types. I like the current options and hope they stay "options" but a version of how PC2 did it for race weekend would be a nice option to also have. Let us choose how the weather evolves "if" we want to. I want to start in the sunshine and end in a blizzard... sometimes. The optional number of pit stops works nicely with this. It would be nice to see a little more or optional dynamics with weather in career too.
5. Allow more customization in Race Weekend and Career modes. Why can't we choose quarter length instead of half only, so we can have 3 lap races instead of 6? Or let us just choose the number of laps we want manually mid season. With this, I think people would more readily choose the Journeyman funding in career and enjoy a more traditional progression. I have one of mine that way now but 6 is still a lot of laps... 8 if you include Qualifying. Let us choose however many laps we want. Race Weekend is halfway there with lap and weather options.
5.5. Add an option to randomize tracks, conditions, weather, and time of day, between races in Race Weekend. Seamlessly going from one to the next race after completion. With a refresh option if you don't like the setup of the next race.
6. In Career, in options or as a career Sponsor "option", maybe both, please add an "option" to turn off mechanical damage. You can still charge for repairs if the sponsorship model demands it but there needs to be an "option" to turn that off. Who wants to drive an endurance race when a minor bump can destroy handling? I get realism, but let that be a choice. Otherwise people who do not have a lot of time may just get frustrated and move on.
7. Enhance wheel on surface sounds. They are currently nearly muted. Or better yet, enhance it and give us an expanded audio eq, let us turn up and down the various sounds we want. I want to hear the sounds of the wheels on tarmac more, not screeching just the natural sound of the wheels rolling over the road. I want to hear wheels just starting to lose traction. I also want to be able to turn the engine down separately.
8. Base tire grip should be enhancable somehow. Maybe it is just the luck of the base tuning in them but some cars just feel too slippery, even after the tires warm. Especially LMDh. With the latest patches there does seem to be a type of forced stability added. Maybe let us adjust stability on a scale the way we can traction control? Maybe add different tire types? Could that work? I also think the feel and feedback of tires could be improved along with the sound.
9. Let us save progression in career. If I already got pole and finished Qualifying, I want to be able to save at Start Race and then be able to go to Race Weekend or another career and still go back to Start Race when I am ready. Mid race if the option for running start is added.
10. Add an option for Racing Line only. Keep it dynamic but let us remove the green if we want.
Yea, I know, but I really want this one.
11. Allow more cars in races offline on console. 15 is dismal, especially if you want multi-class races.
I'm enjoying the game. I posted a version of this online and someone suggested I post it here for the devs to see. Fingers crossed. I am not trying to have any options or realism removed but there should be options for everyone.
