I enjoyed Motorsport Manager on mobile for a bit. It is (was) quite simplistic in some respects though and I lost interest eventually. Hopefully this been a fully fledged game it will have more detail and more nuance. I’m surprised at the trailer though, if it‘s due out in the next few months that it would involve some actual gameplay.

I played this quite a bit when I got my VR. It’s great what they made the game in to though it does get lonely doing it all single player. It would be cool to get together to try multiplayer at some point. In multiplayer, I believe so.

Completely forgot to reply to this. Depends on date but yes, I’m interested. I can’t do the weekend of 24/26 June or the last 2 weekends of July but so far free the rest of the time.

It was a good night of racing and I think we had 9 or 10 racing so a good field 😄 We definitely smashed it, like Paul did to the walls around Tokyo 😄 I’ll arrange another one in a couple weeks or so, give everyone time to practise 🤣 I have a new found respect for the circuit experiences. 25 million credits from all the ones I’d done. Then went and spunked a lot of it on the Gr2 CLK and McLaren F1 GTR. It’s great seeing more Gr2 cars in this over sport. We’ll have to have a Gr2 race at some point.

No more sexy time? 😭 Sadly though car, insurance, tax and server renewals have all alligned for me this month so no new games for me. I do want to get it at some point so will have to see about joining the next event 🙂

From Faze to FG, you're going up in the world 😄 Nice to see you on the forum mate.

Damn! Increasing rewards for circuit experience after I’ve done most of them 😞 Still positive changes over all and I look forward to earning all that extra moolah.

Nope, there’s no option to sell any car. Just the option to remove it from your garage.

I mean I'd rather have 2 Pagani's than no Pagani 😄

I think it’s more points for Haas than the last 2 years combined! Magnussen was definitely the stand out for me, I don’t know how he didn’t get driver of the day. Overall though some terrible luck for Red Bull and brilliant luck for Merc. Merc were way off the pace though, being 40 seconds or so off the leader at the safety car. I hope they can get on top of the car and make it a 3 way battle but that’s a lot of time to gain. It was great seeing Ferrari on the podium again. All those years watching Schumacher I can still hum along to the Italian national anthem 😄

They didn’t universally slash prize money but they did rebalance it. Prior to the update a number of 1 and 2 lap races paid higher than 5 or 10 lap races. So they reduced the short races and buffed the higher. It does mean a reduction in how much you could earn per hour so while the rebalancing I agree the payouts are still low. I also agree with Yamauchi about not playing the same race over and over to farm credits. The problem comes that after the cafe books the amount of credits you can earn does reduce. So with the FOMO with the limited offers, or having a £20mill car so early in the games life, it is going to push people towards micro transactions. On the balance though, the games has been out 2 weeks so I find moaning they can’t buy all the most expensive cars already ridiculous. There should be an element of earning credits and having to think about what cars you buy, especially the exotic and legendary ones. This is on top of that the numbered GT series have always been about the grind. Buying some second hand shitbox, racing it until you can modify it to do some more races and afford a slightly less shitbox. Rinse and repeat until you can eventually buy a shiny new car. Forza Horizon is a perfect example of going to far the other way. You get given so many free cars and money that you can get gifted the best cars almost instantly. GT sport also fell in to this somewhat with the gift car for the daily marathon. There’s also the element that people seem to focus on the game is complete when they finish the cafe books. Ignoring all the additional races the are available at the tracks. So in summary, the payouts are a little low and there isn’t as many races as I thought there would be. But I think they’re a knock off a point or 2 off the rating rather than the bombing it’s had and overall I’d still recommend the game to anyone that’s a fan of the series.

Polyphony Digital servers be like

Well that’s always good news 🤣 I am finding the difficulty variance jarring in this though. I know some people in this thread have found it with licences. But I’ve been knocking out the circuit experiences and some are easy to get gold by over a second yet others take hours to scrape gold by only hundreths of a second. Not to mention dodgy ones like LeMans. The demonstration is at a different time of day so the demo has more grip. The demo takes the corners at full throttle yet all that leads to is snap oversteer and spinning off to fail the sector.

Patch 1.07 is live, mostly just bug fixes. Importantly though they’ve fixed the tyre bug for the licences and missions. A few payouts have changed too for some up, some down depending on time driving.

The following is a list of the main features...

Sorry does not compute. Must be a glitch in the matrix.
