They already had the open mode where everything is unlocked, the point with a career mode is to have some kind of progression, no fun to have everything handed to you at once, cars will feel more special if you do the work and earn them.
The proplem for me with ams2 is that it dosent have car tuning or customize options. Which is features evo going to have but it not going to mean much if their is no progression, modders could possibly sort it out hopefully.

The game started off with only the career mode. People complained so they added open mode and a choice between the two. Do you think they'd have ditched career mode if lots of people were choosing it in preference to open mode?

oh..
This is dissaponting. I was hoping that with mods this game could have had an incredible career mode. I'm glad I didn't buy into the early access on that basis. I can sandbox the original AC. We are really lacking a high quality Gran Turismo rival, especially one on PC at the moment, and have done for some time now.
If everything is unlocked there is no progression which was my point.
Exactly what I feel. AC Evo was going to be the first "proper" sim with single-player elements and progression. Remove all of that, and what does this title actually do that's different from the already saturated space that is sim-racing, besides some cars and the driving physics? The "Driving Academy"? Blah...
Yes, and I prefer what we have to what they're going to add, although what they're really going to do is remove it and only leave the open mode with more time trial challenges and done it.
It does relate to your point, in that I suspect the majority of players have only been playing open mode. I personally don't think I have ever clicked career mode since open mode was added. If you have personally been grinding the career mode, then that is fair enough, you voted for career mode with your time, but I can only think that you are in the minority in doing that, as it would make no sense for them to remove a popular feature.
It wiped progress twice before i gave up. I though it would be worth it to wait for a stable release
I agree 100% and am of the same opinion.
Most people ON PC chose open rather than career mode. They have absolutely ZERO information about what people want on the Console versions.
Without a career mode, this now looks like it becomes on console, a hot lap simulator and an open world cruising game - basically AC1 with an open world mod (e.g. Lake Louise).
Excellent question.
Whether it's the majority or the minority, it doesn't matter, you still don't understand the part of the comment you quoted first.
Is that not likely to be because the game is early access therefore very little of a career mode existed. What we currently have does not equal what was promised or expected. There are half a dozen open sandbox sims out there, there's one Gran Turismo style sim and not a great one at that available on PC at the moment and that is at end of life.
At a basic level, not very, the hard part comes with car customisation. Installing better suspension, engine upgrades etc. Creating events and setting prize money etc. isn't that difficult. I can create a couple of events in GT5 or GT6 in one evening with the telly on if I'm inclined to. Once you have the vehicle upgrades sorted out, the rest is pretty straight forward.
