    @TronLi Yup, just imagine custom championships with custom skins where all AI behaviour is set, but the feature I'm looking the most would be the ability to share those configurations with other Automobilistians ;)

    @stealthradek A long term goal could be to add online support so friends could drop into your championships and take over for some of the AI (if disconnected, the AI would continue in their absence).

    Right, PPG Cart / IndyCar from mid 90s were the best. Much much much better than IndyCar from today which is not compareable to that time.
    I hope that Long Beach will also contain historic layouts, that from 1992 (I remember my first IndyCar game from Papyrus) and the old F1 track from the end 70s/ early 80s.

    Those were decent games... I think I played the follow-up to that on either a 486 or a pentium 166, it was that weird in-between time.*refreshes Steam meanwhile, I mean why just be patient?*
    before that I just played Accolade Grand Prix, and that was balls in comparison.
    I had a period-correct MS Sidewinder joystick, that I attached "stick to table" with a clamp from my dad's toolshed.
    Then I bound the steering to the "rudder" axis, and we had ourselves a wheel.
    It was a simpler time... *checks Steam again...*

    I am very grateful for the quality-of-life features to have a custom camera position and FFB Gain per vehicle and addressing some "extra bumpy" cars (hopefully, like the V10 and Formula Reiza). Those items were high on my wish list. :)

    And I wanted to say thanks to the Rieza team for working to the end of the year for this. Please take some time to be with your families. This is more important.

    I understand that you’re easily disappointed, but could you try avoiding needless negativity? It’s not new year’s eve in Brazil yet and Reiza works crazy hours. Save this for tomorrow midday UTC.

    In any case, from my cultural background, I assume ”before new year’s eve” means ”before we go celebrate the end of this year”.

    In the Gregorian calendar, New Year's Eve (also known as Old Year's Day or Saint Sylvester's Day in many countries), the last day of the year, is on 31 December.

    One more delay, one more empty talk.
    The more I look at AMS2, the more it makes me laugh....come on Reiza, you can convert all your package to rF2 like for the rF2 Reiza Bundle, cause can we all admit that AMS2 is massively inferior to rF2 ? (OMG how much fun I have with the Reiza fR2 bundle, the AMS2 version of the rF2 Reiza bundle content makes me puke). It's not about time, it's just cause the rF2 physics and FFB are better.
    Wait,
    I have the C8 and SPA in my pocket.

    Congratz for your roadmap, you have finally used the word 'suspension', after 1 year of broken suspension.

    I think we can all admit that your positive energy is massively inferior to a tax audit.

    If every single member would just hit the ignore button for this troll (who is clearly the biggest troll in Sim racing) on New Year's Eve the evil troll will loose all hope and vanish once and for all.
    Remember a day ends at the end of the day ;) and with time zones what may be New years day in New Zealand is still New Years Eve in Brazil.

    The time difference throws me off every time. So now I just assume stuff happens while Europe is asleep.

    Alright! Never had to use "Ignore" before...
    But I guess there's a first time for everything.
    I wish people'd just take that kinda stuff over to Hate Department. I mean, the audience is already there!

    Rumor has it rF2 “physics” are black magic and you can go seconds faster with no wing or anti-roll bars. That sounds arcadey to me...just sayin

    A well known issue. As much as I played the heck out of rF2, and it still holds a special place in my heart, there are so many problems with it.
    Not least of which are the graphics, which is to me the most obvious hurdle to overcome.
    Once past that, I barely know where to begin.
    Fps up the wazoo but weirdly stuttery in traffic, because apparantly it can't utilize much more than 1 core still?
    I won't even go into the weird menus, insane loadtimes, inconsistent AI...
    I left it in the past, which is, imo where it belongs.
