An endurance option for online only? PD really aren't interested in creating improvements in the offline racing anymore, no wonder the AI is still hopeless and the career mode events so limited. At least give us a damn event creator so we can create some races for ourselves!
Here's some food for thought. The game is constantly online (unless you sign out) and everyone implements metrics now so, although I do not know this as fact, it is very likely GT6 sends info back to PD. They should be seeing what is happening with their game. (btw, if they aren't doing this then they are living in the stone ages)
Of the people that I know that play the game (my in game friends, etc) NONE of them play offline for any other reason than to make money to buy more cars. Some don't even do that much. If this holds true for the majority, then it's easy to see that online should get the focus.
What is the GT5 thread buzzing about ost at the moment? Losing online. What is the big deal about modded cars? Online.
Game design is shifting more and more towards online. In about 5 years, I expect a few games not to have any kind of single player mode.Maybe more people would be playing offline if PD put some work into making it better.
Ideally, that as well as normal lobbies.Since online is the clear direction, I'd think putting a bit more structure around the online racing is needed. The lobbies now are a mess to navigate...dirty racers, drag, show, club, private. Why not set predetermined PP lobbies, across each track, with set racing schedules? Just thinking aloud here..... Maybe that is already possible, but NOT hosted by a single person who can kick you out on a whim.
random lobbys are junk, unless you are in a friends only room or a dedicated league, online is junk. What the online portion of the game needs is some sort of expierence / saftey rating, like the racing sim iracing has, and that project cars is going to implement. Without limitations of ratings in a lobby, your always going to have a dueshe ruin your expierence.Since online is the clear direction, I'd think putting a bit more structure around the online racing is needed.

same. I'm sorta anti social,so multiplayer doesn't really appeal to me. unless I know the people I am playing with. I don't want to play.I'm personally not looking forward to that. If we get to the point where we have to rely 100% on other people to have a good time, I don't see myself buying video games anymore.
What was the maximum laps before 1.07 (lobby setting)?
