I'm full of bad and good ideas haha, as I say I just get them out there and like to see other ideas to! I kind of was hoping other people would post there ideas alas, it failed
. I agree though I think people would tank SRs so that would need to be solved if they ever went down that route as it's currently legal to do that in the current rules because it gains nothing! To be honest I'd just want to see the best racing, I'd hate to see anyone miss out say if you won every top split race and then didn't make it because of lobby strength I just think it would suck, like really suck. Likewise I hate people losing out in our splits getting 0 points for coming 20th? Could be the fastest, strongest lobby in history, someone has to come last and they get 0? I just find that bonkers! It might just put people off racing and then we end up with something small and nobody being bothered about it
, kind of don't want that to happen for GT...
Maybe I should stop buying limited edition games, everyone one I've bought recently has meant a game lacking something... Next one I'm buying standard only!
I see your point and made some thoughts about this.
I really support the idea of base points for lower finishing positions. In Season 1 i got into the super Alien 3000 points lobby in my first race and earned about 1200 points for 12th position i think. Thats still good but 3 places behind it´s only a few hundred's and less than a victory in an A-B lobby.
There´s no perfect solution for comparing top lobbys at different time-slots. The one PD chosed is good in my opinion.
DR-Points and a special 24-Superstar race to get the best drivers from different slots together. Of course it´s bad for a top driver to miss this race but the only possibility to separate the best from the very best drivers and give those a chance who had bad luck with low DR lobbys.
Here´s my idea of a fair point system:
1. Lobby compilation:
First thing that matters is SR. So SR S will only be matched with SR S players A with A...
Each driver gets a score based on his DR (50%) and best time during training (50%).
So if your DR is in the Top 0,1% you get 99,9 points for this. With a top 10 time in training you get another 99,9 points which gives you an average of 99,9.
Someone with DR C and a top 10 time during training would get 99,9 points for his time and lets say 50 points for his DR which shows he is better than 50% of all drivers in Sportsmode. So his total score is (99,9+50)/2= 74,95
The 20 driver with highest points in every slot are lobby 1 ; 20-40 Lobby 2... and so on.
2. Championchip points:
Based on position and DR of the lobby like now.
In addition theres a base each player gets depending on the lobby number he is in.
For example the top lobby 1 gives 800 additional points on every position.
Lobby 2 gets 800/2= 400
Lobby 3 gets 800/3= 267
Lobby 100 gets 800/100= 8
- Players get rewarded for achieving a high DR score and a good time in training.
- Place 19 in lobby 1 would still be better than place 15 in lobby 2.
- Lobbys get ranked on SR first so a D/S Lobby is allways ranked better than a A/A lobby.
