OPTION to Force Cockpit in multiplayer?
Is this finally going to be in F1 2022? It's the one thing I'm waiting on being included before buying. Essentially, it's necessary to create a fair and equal playing field for league racing. Emph...

i would force an option to make mandatory all assist off, expecially tc off.
Everyone on multiplayer plays with tc on, it's like cheating^^
I don't care about what camera they use, i care about same assist for everyone!
- @Artax04 I’ve been saying that for years already.
The call for a non assist ranked lobby is present for years, but they care about money and quantity to the cost of QUALITY - @Artax04 Hasn't that always existed? Making sure everyone is using the same camera (since some are also assists) is the final piece to create integrity/fairness in leagues.

To play devils advocate here, shouldn't players be able to play how they want?
I play in cockpit cam (edited) with some assists, I know others who are quick in T-Cam, far chase cam, quick on pad, even quick on a keyboard. I personally never feel cheated by losing to someone who plays in a different camera, or on different assist levels. As long as the racing is there and the combat is fair, its more a niche request.
Personally I'd rather have a competitive environment where everyone is enjoying playing the game their way and competing together.
@BarryBL To play devils advocate to your devils advocate,
Couldn’t the same argument be used regarding assist restrictions? There’s options to lock any/all assists to off so why can’t there be an option to lock the camera to a certain setting?

TC on vs TC off is about 1 second a lap in the benefit of TC off.
If you are going for absolute performance, turning TC on is a handicap to your lap time. Realistically, if you have 'graduated' past TC, you should be quicker than those who have it on.
Also, you can do this in the in-game lobby settings as host.

For many I think the difference is more about having to drive more cautiously with TC off to avoid spinning. I'm slower with TC off for this reason .
I agree with you. When people say that TC ON is 1 sec slower than TC OFF, they compare the best times of an Esports level driver. But an Esports level driver can extract 95 - 100% out of the car on throttle. I can probably only do 85-90%. Because I spin when I push. So I never really push. Which makes TC OFF slower than TC ON.
I have raced in both non-assists and assisted leagues. Had great fun in both leagues, but it can be a bit annoying to see assisted drivers being slower overall but are difficult to overtake because they can take more risk in their moves.
In the end it's all about choices. If you don't like racing assisted players, find a non-assisted league.
The point here is that it's not possible to find a league where everbody uses CPC. I don't want to drive with CPC, but if I did want a race on level playing field, it would be nice if the host could set CPC to mandatory in the settings.
