When I think about it, Bathurst weekend will be awesome to use the female avatar(There will be two female drivers as wild cards for the 1000). What a bonus if the names can be changed on the side windows. It's just a great feature. No more "pretending" for female players out there. This adds another element to this awesome game.

Now that would be awesome! Would love to see T10 do that. 👍

Livery editor for helmets would be mega.

This is something I've hoping T10 will do some day in the future. Rather than changing you driver's clothes, why not design? That'll be so epic! :D

I'm not familiar with the entire genre, so it begs the question: what other games have offered a female avatar?

Only one I can think of that offered female avatars was Driveclub, even though it's arcade.

There was this one, R-Racing

In fact, you had no choice but to be the female protagonist in this one. Iirc, she was a Tokyo ambulance driver :D

And there was Speed Kings

Don't ask me how I know you could dress her in a leopard print riding suit ;)

TDU1 and TDU2 truly had about the best customization you can imagine when it comes to racing games. It was more of an arcade series but customization was excellent. Even house customization. :)

Wow I was just about to post that series! Never played the first but R Racing Evolution was truly a hidden gem. Not many know about that game other than @DDastardly00 and a few others. Very fun game for sure. One of the few racing games on the PS2 that pulled me away from the GT series for a long time. To unlock every single medal and car in the game was very challenging. Beautiful show room too. Great for pics.

I remember I've played TDU on my PSP so much I even dried out its battery once! TDU2 was also quite good as a game: it had its share of glitches and bugs, but it was still a really good game: I still remember the time I owned the yacht in Oahu, with a full garage including cars such as the One-77, the SLR Stirling Moss, the Veyron Supersport and the Atom V8 500... Here's hoping that there's a TDU3 on next-gen consoles, but in the meantime I'll most definitely enjoy Forza 6 and Need for Speed 2015 for the time being.

See my reply in the TDU3 topic thread, unfortunately David Nadal's new game is indeed for mobile platforms and it appears to be a sim-oriented. It looks like The Crew is the closest we will get to a true TDU successor on consoles.

I really wish more games would have taken TDU's approach to the car-buying aspect. You can see it somewhat in PD's premium cars as the interiors will change colors to reflect the exterior color, but that's about as close as I've seen. Wasn't as in-depth as real life for some cars, but it was still unique picking out the exterior, interior, & even different factory wheel options. If the garages had the option of moving the cars around like PGR3/4 did, man, it would have been on an even greater level for an enthusiast.

I miss that game.
 
I read in GTPlanet's review
"One welcome community-minded move is the import feature, letting players simply load their FM5 or FH2 designs up, and save them instantly in FM6."

They mean any design, right? (made by us + the locked downloaded ones from other players)

Just your own is what I've heard all along.

That's too bad. I have hundreds of downloaded replica liveries in FM5

Is it? You don't own the downloaded goods. :P

I do wish it was an option though but it would likely require more information being sent to and from on the backend and in this particular situation that's just... woefully inefficient.

Yeah but I don't see the problem. They would still be locked.
 
There's bound to be a reason why only unlocked, personally-created content can be transferred.

On the plus side: since it's so easy to bring the old designs into the new game, so long as the old designers are playing FM6, we should see a lot of the quality liveries returning. And as an added bonus: the actual liveried F&F cars will hopefully put an end to the half-assed liveries that always plague the Supra. :P

I just hope I don't scroll through 15 versions of the same design because the artist doesn't know how to use the system. Or just scrolling endlessly through bad designs looking for 1 good one.

I remember in Forza 3 and 4 you could simply show the liveries that received a specific average (example 4 or 5 stars). Also because back then we could actually vote between 1 and 5 stars. Not simply just put a "like" and don't vote at all if we don't like a livery (or a setup), like in Forza 5.
The old system must come back.

Excellent. I was wondering how that would work. Exactly how I wanted it to work. :)

Another great feature about TDU1 (removed from TDU2) was the ability to adjust the seat in ANY direction. I have never seen that in any game other than TDU1 on consoles. Such a wonderful feature. There are a LOT of little details like that in the TDU series. I still have TDU2, I just usually end up in the casino every time I play to get into the Poker tournaments. :D Would love to see a TDU2, unfortunately Atari and Eden had so many problems with the initial release of TDU2, its very unlikely to see a 3rd. For now the closest we get on the X1 is The Crew. Which is not too bad of a game. Its just not quite TDU1 or TDU2.
