Tracks
I know the game is coming out soon in a couple of weeks, but it would be cool for a game update where we can build our own tracks and put them into my player mode, and my team mode.
The things I would do for a series of new tracks that aren't Tilke cookie-cutter street circuits that send you to sleep!
It does seem quite unsustainable to manage from a bug-squishing capacity. Imagine you have 1million players and they all design 24 new tracks for a MyTeam season. That's 24million different circuits that when things go wrong, that you'd have to look into. Imagine some people wanted new tracks every season. They'd create 240 circuits. What about if they wanted different ones for MyTeam than they did for Career. That's then 480 circuits they've created. Then imagine if everyone did that. 480 million tracks! Then what if they wanted to start a new save but with different circuits? The amount of variables just extrapolates exponentially from there. Obviously it'd never happen, but if it could happen then you have to account for it.
The only way I could see it working is if you have very generic options of how to design a circuit. Like, what the background (location) looks like, the length of the straights, number and style of corners. In order to facilitate it, I feel it would be very restrictive in that it would be more hassle than it's worth. I can assure you most tracks people create wouldn't be Grade 1 certified, that's for sure!
Plus, paying for the licence to use the real-world tracks and then making them optional seems like an economic fallacy.
Maybe there's a way to do it simply enough, and it'd be nice to have something different.
