maybe you didn't read well or I explained myself badly... it's not that non-elite players shouldn't play... when you run with aids you have different sensations than those who run without and since most of them use them they risk giving suggestions out of line while those who don't use them will give an additional advantage to those who use them... for example if the traction without aids and off road maybe for those who use it it's fine so you create a contrast that will influence the direction of the developers... a game with more complex setups however will not prevent copy and paste from others but at least a game will make sense... the occasional player says it in the word itself for occasion... how do you explain the 40% drop in sales? if the game worked set up like this year totally arcade then I wasn't talking at all. I'm not interested in iracing but in the official cars then obviously everyone sees it in their own way.
I understand what you’re saying, but in order to make the game more accessible to everyone, from 40 year old Sim Racers like myself to the 5 year old kids discovering F1 and wanting to pretend to be Lando Norris on their Playstations, there needs to be a handling model that can accommodate every single type of player. That’s an insanely difficult balancing act.
The handling on these games lately is so far from realistic, and it never will be! It’s not iRacing! If you designed a handling model purely based on Non-Assisted players feedback and needs, I’m certain it would be too difficult for casual and younger players. The best way to achieve that balance is by including every type of player in the Beta test and coming to a compromise that caters to everyone, and feels and looks like how fans would ‘expect’ an F1 car to be when they watch it on TV, because that’s our only source of reference!
Also, none of us really know what it’s like to handle an F1 car. Even the Non-Assisted players, so what makes their feedback any more valuable? It’s never going to be a Sim!
I agree my friend but if you adjust the traction for an elite in automatic the kid who starts with aids will find a smooth traction not scraggly like we see on TV also the curbs are absent I don't think even the kid wants this or the absence of blistering or to be able to set a car to have a graduated wear based on the style instead of the preset from so many turns to that unpredictable weather instead of obvious we all want this.....
