alot of the stuff i want is far from the arcadey stuff when i play racing games i only play them if they are punishing if i screw up there's not alot of them out there dirt u can slam into a tree an still finish first the damage model is there but it doesn't really effect performance i even have to play f1 2013 with a severe damage mod other wise i cant play it.. Soo point form what i actually want and would buy if some of these things are considered. >Narrow harder tracks (dirt 3 i felt every track was as wide as a highway and never needed to slow down) >Dirt that is actually dirt, digs down makes tyre grooves etc, think other cars go before you it could slightly change the physics of the track for re-playability >Less or no over the top gymkhana bs (i respect ken block but didn't some other game poach him, keep it gone) >Longer races kinda get bored if i have to go through a loading screen every 1-2minutes OR if that is the case as rallys are in stages make them meaning full connect them Service park to repair previous stage damage etc. >Realistic speeds, handeling, mechanical failures >More tracks if not real ones > Weather effects that effect the handling more not just if its raining its slippery if its raining heavy puddles build up hitting them effects handling >More trophy truck support, or other od trucks an bikes but if they are used include some long race equivalent to Dakar with multiple save checkpoints. >^ include a long dakar race if possible, multiple checkpoints, classes, vehicles, this event should take a long time to finish think 24hour races in other games. > Damage options if its set to realistic hitting anything should be a bad thing have options for full visual damage an less mechanical people if majority think its too much. > Livery editor car customizing > More focused career mode. (This is where livery editor an customizing comes in) start/manage a team / sponsors. > Destruction derby, somethings in showdown were fun with a proper damage model, realistic speeds (as an option slow), mechanical failures dirt physics (wheels spinning) could be fun online to see who can last the longest. Make a good game take your time, start fresh fit as much in it as systems will allow blow minds get everybody talking. I am probably asking for too much but this is because i really stick to old racing games over new ones, i really only play simulators (gtr etc) and a rally one would be a nice change stuff i suggest is probably next to impossible and i know the game has to be playable by all not just the insanely die hard realism people otherwise sales get hurt. Good luck lol! xXRariiXx
