For me it would be the winning a car in an event that you have just bought to do that event!

For example a toyota vitz/yaris, you hunt one down to do that one event, knowing full well you will never use it again, and what happens you win another one!

Happens far too much!
 
Mine would definitely be the go karts driving better in reverse. I know this sounds petty, but I love hot lapping and I love the go karts. If this doesn't get fixed before the online leader boards get put up then it will cause some major problems for the karts. All the need to do to fix this is put a governor at like 30mph for the reverse gear on the karts!
 
- ability to save car setups
- ability to tune individual gears
- when I get all gold in the A-spec events, PLEASE give me a car I can actually use in upcoming races! The way you have to hunt some of them down is just ridiculous.
 
Have the game remember my driving assists and other settings and never ask me to change them. Why the assists settings are not a global setting is beyond me. If you want to change them for a specific race that's causing you grief you can already do it from the start race screen, why ask me every time before I enter a race?

Have a button on the controller/wheel that brings up tuning screen and another for main gt life and garage so I don't have to spend half my life clicking though menus looking at loading screens.
 
I'd give an option to open the whole game up and leave it to the player to make up their own events and races with manual AI adjustment to suit the individual player skill.

I'm on level 21 and I can't be bothered to annoy myself with the dreary races and small credits.
Give me everything now. I never got bored with Rfactor even though I had unlimited cash.

Don't get me wrong though. The tracks we have and the way the cars drive are brilliant.
 
I think the game remembers what assists you have for each car and saves it (or maybe it doesn't when you change car).
 
More events and no leveling system. I was shocked to discover the licenses mean nothing. Events should be restricted by license as they always have been. Leveling is one of the things I disliked in Forza. Ability to backup the save file should also have been a given in a game that requires so much time invested.
 
1-backup saves
2-go back to old way of used cars (if you want a used chevy go to chevy and buy one)
3-AI that actually acknowledges your presence on the track and not try to kill you.
 
More important than the game saves for me would be to completely remove B-Spec :yuck:

Standard/Premium cars, like wtf. Standard cars look like friggin psp graphics. No test trials? I miss the old days of video games, when they came out they were done, fun, and smart ppl made them. Now days, its a whole lot of unfinished senseless mistakes, like developers dont even care ne more. Miss the most obvious things, yet focus on the things that no1 gives a care about...b-spec for example.
 
· More variation of tracks. I'm really missing Hong Kong, Seoul, New York, Seattle, Infineon... I appreciate Madrid, though, that's where I live :D
· Events. Tons of events. Now we have the Special Events and 45 events, plus the endurance ones, as far as I know. It feels a bit like GT1, very limited. One make races don't count as before, as they don't award Cr/Exp...
· Fast match-making wouldn't be bad, would it?
· Leaderboards. I'd like to know world's best lap in a circuit, and also my friends'. I don't think this is much asking...
· Mechanical damage. Yes, I know it's coming, and I hope it's great. But you know, the more, the better :D
· Select cars by make in Arcade mode. Seriously, it's annoying. At the beginning there are a few models, but... It's just nonsense if you want a specific one...

I can't think of more now... Well, it bothers me that I'm not allowed to run with weather conditions in split screen mode... I guess it's due to memory issues but I don't really understand it... It handles 16 cars and not 2 with two points of view and inputs? :S

PS: And if all of the above means removing VISUAL damage, then so be it.
 
More experience per race and more Money per win. Those would be my two big wishes, plus a few more events wouldn't hurt either.

I was shocked to discover the licenses mean nothing. Events should be restricted by license as they always have been.

Actually this made me incredibly happy. The licenses have always been way too hard and I've always needed a friend to get me through the final tests. If I had my way they'd never show up in a GT game again.
 
When you re-do championships you should get the reward car again. If it's part of the 'prize' then you should win it every time you run that championship.
 
I liked the old map interface from gt 4. I would change the AI so that the other cars don't perform homicidal pit maneuvers whenever you pass them.

This one has always baffled me, and why it can't remember I want cockpit view either.

I guess it's 2 things, but I want a bloody Mazda Mx-6!! Why is my car left out of every racing game? :grumpy:

The driving settings are actually remembered for each car, like tcs and tyre settings.
 
Just give me the option to customize the starting grid in arcade mode with cars from my own garage and that would keep me occupied for a very, very, very long time.

Good idea^

For me, I would like to see the license test actually have a purpose like in past GT games.

Its strange, it seems like they wanted it to be that way, when you pass a license ' the woman with the sweeeet voice says' '
"congratulations on passing your license ( or something along those lines, cant remember ), you can now access more races! "

but the license dont have a say in what races you can access, only what level you are determines that.. right?
 
More money and exp for races. 160,000 for a 4 hours endurance? Seriously. Currently grinding for the F2007 and its going to take over 10 hours of oval racing. D:
 
The reverse gear. It's stupid to use triangle for that.
You should go down on gears until you find it. Also I press triangle and most of the time the wheel rotates and my finger skip the button.
 
- able to change standard cars rims
- ALL cars RM'able (wishful thinking, its like praying for miracle)
- ALL standard cars to premium (anotehr wishful thinking, i will start praying until gt6 comes out)
