The big 1.5 speculation and dream thread

I have Stereo's Odometer and the pedal app, everything else is on the Nexus. It might not be such an issue with 16/9 monitors, but with 21:9 it take a great deal of screen real estate. It not the bar its self, actually it is, but the pointless and inane information it gives us. John was kicked for a mismatch, john left the server, john joined the server in car number 12, john cut the corner, john can piss off and stop the bloody game dedicated its information about johns freakin game!

I do not really care for voting, unless I have had chance to see them being less than polite. I really do not care what car anyone joins in, as it means nothing to me Car number 12 could be anything, any colour, any model, anything! The information needed can be seen in chat, no need for the black bar, unless you get bored and need to read shizen when racing around a track. Anyhoo, me thinks I protest too much.

 

BAR?.....mine's a Guinness

 

The mini freeze when someone joins bothers me more, is that server side or mine?

 

^This!!

 

I don't agree at all. All the info in that top black bar could be displayed as a small message feed in a corner of the screen. All the X player connected, Z player has disconnected type messages (for me) should be in a small text feed in a corner of the screen, its unnecessary information to have at the top of the screen in the black bar. If the black bar is needed at all, it should be to display personal information like your brake bias and even then it should be shrunk down.

 

LOL awesome. "AC v1.5 delayed until devs sober up."

 

"John leaves, John joins" would be pointless if the drivers list in pits was working as it should - updating itself in real time, every time John leaves or joins.

I agree with Minolin on the laptimes, it was nice to see how fast are other drivers. At the same time it was just a pop up info so it wasn't really taking space except those 2s it was on, unlike app that is on all the time.

It's not really bothering me size-wise, but I guess it could be smaller.

 

To be honest, I rather like the chat messages being displayed at the top of the screen (as in GT Legends), but I would have to remember to keep my gob shut if I was in the pits with the race still running!

 

Can't believe so far none of you predicted this:
- Grid girls

I can't express enough how disappointed I am.

This topic should be closed now. Go rethink your lives and priorities.

 

Grid girls have already been discussed. They would be a needless distraction.

 

I don't have an H gearbox

- Safety cars, that'd be a treat
- Mandatory pit-stops.
- (Proper) multiclass races!

 

For those who don't understand the black bar problem: The bigger the screens are you go for, triples, whatever all is just aiming for more immersion. Especially when you darken your room to dive completly into it, the black bar is just distracting like hell.

Imagine you drive in a awesome car, the weather is beautiful outside, street is nearly emtpy so you can have fun with the corners. But the car has installed a system which automatically flap the sun shields up and down. Completely random, sometimes a few times in a couple of seconds. So afterwards you would maybe tell the car owner that his car is amazing, but you will also ask if he was dropped too often when he was a baby.

 

- Correct starting-lights (don't know any racing-series which uses six lights!) with graphics improvement.

Waiting for the correct five-lights for ages!

 

I can't wait for 1.5

Wasn't playing much Ac anymore, but the hype is doing it's magic...

 

I get the same when people using ^ and chinese letters in their name.

 

That's an even longer freeze your right.
To be fair, other games do it.

 

Yes and jeez people, if you really need to look at boobs, there are plenty of other ways you can use your computer to achieve this. Let my juvenile hobby retain at least some dignity.

 

I wish
- they make a game with this great physics engine, and stop freaking with the content, we have content enough and the quality of it is good.
- at least disable late entries in races,
- and fix the ghost car
- and make some ghostcar options, like driving agains other car brands and other players
- and free us from minorating
