Last I read, it will be a driver assist that you can either turn on or off.
It just looks tedious and is only made for the sake of, "How many or how long can you do a certain task" IMO. Not as ridiculous as some of GT Sport's achievements though....Made a mistake...looked at the achievements list...had sudden flashbacks to some of the completely insane requirements from older games...hope they're just for giggles and not actually harbingers of a soul crushing.
Haven't seen it mentioned in here, but turning it on increases rewards by 1.5x, so it's a good tradeoff.I also agree that it's good they're implementing the water/oil temps as an optional thing. Since it wasn't really a thing since till TXR3 anyway, letting people decide on it is a smart decision.
Granted I'll be having it on because I just need the absolute terror of having a boss car run up on me when my car is on the verge of boiling over from a heated battle, but your mileage may vary of course.
This is exactly the type of thing that made me stop playing the "beta". I felt like the full release was going to be quite a more compelling game and I didn't want to spoil it.
New bosses: Swift Emperor (only his Buddha insignia was teased though), along with Phantom 9 members: Dirty Fox and Crazy Monkey.
Lexus is confirmed with the RC F Track Edition.
