    Controls setups that can be changed during a race from the pause menu. So we don't have to spend time manually changing our controls each time we use a car that needs a special setup like the McLaren MP4/12 were one might want to have extra brake on the clutch pedal.

    Reduce the minimal AI skill settings, or in other words allow players to go below 70 so beginners can enjoy playing against the AI, I'm talking real beginners, people who can race at the same level as people as people who did for years from the start are not beginners in my book.
    I'm doing fine but my father simply can't compete and I can't recommend AMS2 to my teen nephew who looking to get into sim racing with only limited arcade racing experience.
    I feel like Reiza has low enough players/sales that they could really use the money of beginner simmers, especially since I don't think it would be hard to implement. Doesn't hurt to allow more people to have fun in this fantastic sim.

    In my experience, they are mostly bugs.

    ...this weekend!

    8h of Portimao. If you don't subscribe to the WEC app or one of the broadcasters, now's a good time.

    Cars are too shiny, they often look like plastic toys. It is noticeable especially on older cars, vintage stock cars and formula trainer, that don't have many stickers, just big patches of single tone color that is often very saturated. On top of that you have a patch of sun reflection that is pure white, as if car is a mirror. I believe it could be improved.

    Set AI to lowest, add in all the assists. That should be more than enough, no?

    - Option to make the car appear in the mirrors, it is performance intensive, but it could be done for those who seek a more immersive cockpit.

    - A feature that can be useful for events is to make pit box banners, crew and drivers customizable (color at least).
    * For now I know that driver colors are related to the grid position.

    I think if you have hot girls walking around in pit stop, there are going to be a lot more pit stops than expected lol.

    Would really like to see a easier option to change pit strategy during race, like when you request pitstop i would like to see a popup with easy to use buttons, preferably buttons already in use on the wheel or something like this. Impossible to drag out the keyboard in an intense race and change stuff

    New here and probably annoying to people my first post is in the feature requested thread.... Sorry!

    I never post on forums (I should, I'm shy) but I wanted to say I absolutely love racing in this game and its getting better and better with each update.

    A few wishes/requests though... But both ultimately is about immersion... dont get me wrong I love the effort and detail that gets put into each car, and I think that shouldnt stop as this being a 'sim' it seems right thats whats being focused on, but for me it lacks immersion of a 'game' that will keep me coming back/playing on regardless of new content.


    1 . Custom Driver names and the ability to adjust individual driver skill
    This is a must!!! seen it a lot on here including this thread and on other forums and I agree totally so I really hope Reiza is seeing it and agreeing too! Sooner rather than later! I'd way prefer this over any career mode.

    I want to set up my own race seasons, historic real life to match some of the car classes and the great new historic weather system, or fictional grids, either way it adds a great element of immersion feeling like you know who you're competing against.

    I do see in some Championships (Formula v10 gen2 championship) has 'alternate/altered' names that gets assigned to certain liveries... This doesnt always happen to each livery, seems random that it generates but ONLY with that livery. For instance my V10 Gen2 season has drivers called 'Karl Fenstermacher' and his brother(?) 'Rulf Fenstermacher' who conveniently get assigned to my fictional ferrari and williams liveries respectively. Same as 'Dave Colt' and 'Miki Hukkola' in a fictional Mclarens... Rubens Barrichello is actually there too in the other ferrari sometimes spelled correctly (but im sure thats down to licensing as he appears in the Stock car Brasil 2020 champ) So it must be able to be done some how? has anyone else seen this?

    Its a bit like the 'Pro Evolution Soccer' route that Reiza should take when I see this, assign customisable names and attributes, then let the player change in game if they wish to. Takes away the difficulty of licensing issues while gives the player the ability craft and play as they like without modding... I know I'd spend hours tweaking and changing custom things like this in game.

    2. Randomised AI incidents
    Since the latest update (1.2.0.5) there are more AI racing collision crashes (for me at least, AI on AI *and have to have agression at 100) but I want to drive around in a race and an AI car has blown an engine or has had a flat...

    Bare with me, but Imagine being in a race and an AI drivers' car engine has blown at turn 3, smoke bellowing out and parked up in the gravel you see as you drive past, or a tire has blown at the last corner... not only that but rather than the car magically disappearing when out of sight, sitting under a yellow flag and limited speed and all the advantages that brings (condensing the pack/pitting etc), then next lap drving round past the broken down car and it being mid hoisted out by a crane... Finding out it was the AI driver in front of you your championship standings and you can ease off a bit for the rest of the race.... then next lap gone and green flags and racing! Immersion and a level of emergence of gameplay right there....

    More visual damage too while I'm on the subject, some of those open wheeler AI cars bounce off the walls like they are bumper cars even on *full damage.... That should be racing ending crash. Proper visual damage please! Look at what happens to open wheelers if they do hit a wall, they crumble and stop, not bounce around and only lose one wheel and visually nothing else is wrong...
    Even particles, like how carbon fibre seems to explode with bits floating everywhere after a large crashes in real life. Driving through someone elses wheel/lockup smoke feels so immersive and puts me right there in AMS 2 in VR, so love the idea of dodging an accident with bits flying everywhere in your view...


    I had more like a busier pitlane etc but I should probably stop here as I'd be surprised anyone read this long already... If you did well done and thank you hope it wasnt boring :)
