Title: Upcoming tracks
Post by: Phathry25 on March 27, 2018, 03:53:45 AM
Any chance we can get some braking boards added to Hockenheim?  I can figure it out in solo runs, in traffic it will be a disaster though.  It's not an option IMO... Needs to be fixed or scrapped.

Poznan sucks, too many jumps for this game. Can we please vote to replace it?  Pretty please with a cherry on top.

I think we should swap one of those tracks for the new assen track. It is too good not to include it.

Hockenheim --> Assen
Poznań --> Estoril
Mid Ohio --> your proposition

Only looking at 4 more races for this champ now, 8 in all - http://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=5627.0

Want to get something else going with a different bike, rules etc.

We did some testing on Hockenheim last night and I can't see any reason not to race it. Did a bit of racing last night and it was a good blast.

Perhaps we can vote for the last 3 tracks. Not sure about Assen yet, it's got some holes that could cause problems in a race.

Agreed on hockenheim and also good call on assen, we don't want anyone to fall through the map... Hopefully its ready soon :)

Oh good - Hockenheim's been growing on me too in practice.   :)

...thinking it was ye olde layout.   
The tyrewall at turn 2 came as a bit of a surprise.   ;D

Showing my age.    ::)

You'll find a good few old layout tracks, "Classic" tracks,  in the track database...... Personally I prefer the old layouts.... They've ruined most of the "Classic" GP circuits with their safety conscious rebuilds over the years.... Don't get me wrong, I'm all for safer tracks, but what they've done to these Classic tracks like Assen and Hockenhiem and Monza, Catalungya etc, etc, is an abomination in my opinion.  :)

"old monza" rip everyone  :P

I do agree that safety things changes so many things. Old assen was amazing. Also I feel like they shouldve change the sandtraps in catalunya instead of changing the layout... Just make sandtraps go slightly uphill so the bike and rider get slowed down more. The crash of luis salom was that devastating because the sandtrap didn't do anything. He just slid across it without slowing down.
Oh and I want to see less asphalt like in the old days. You don't slide as far and you can't go freaking offtrack and gain time. So they could just stop doing the stupid penalty rules when you go over the curbstones. I remember they would just fly through the grass and get back on track, that was an automated time loss system if you went over the curb  :P. Now they just cancel laptimes and give penalties...

I do have the old monza (brianza) complete with banked sections in game - nice looking track but not very interesting though as its basically throttle pinned all the way around

I quite enjoyed the thrash when I took the Strada round it.
...but it took days for my eyes to feel right again afterwards.  Must remember to blink next time.   :)

Got the impression it could be a hoot if there were a few of you together.  170mph block passes into the banked sections, serious slipstreaming.....    ;D

THE GRAN FINAL CHAMPIONSHIP MOTO2 INTERNATIONAL CUP
R6 Mid-Ohio
R7 Assen
R8 Estoril
my opinion

Defo get rid of COCKenheim, shit track irl and in games... just pure shit, no argument about it. its shit. (edit: just realised im a day late on that one...)
Poznan is ok, but was defo made more interest in cars than bikes, so makes for shit racing on bikes.
Mid-Ohio in my opinion is a great track, its a difficult track to learn but once you learn it honestly its fucking amazing, but i guess all you pussies using third person will complain cos it isnt flat. so the camera does that thing.

As for replacement tracks
Brands Hatch GP (Brands_LS_NDS).
Donington GP(_NDS).
ASSEN (Manu'sVersion) IS A MUST PLZ.
(yes i know this is a car track) - Mosport Park (v1.1) done many races on this track and its so sick, fast and flowing, will either make for some wicked overtakes or some huge crashes (single rider crash, not taking everyone else out lol.
Snetterton 300 (V1.0).

Soz if u hate British tracks lol.

I'm surprised event organisers/promoters are not using the "Paul Ricard" track in championships? I think it's a great track especially since the surface was rebuilt. This track often gets overlooked for some reason, then when riders try it they wonder why too. Lol!  ;D
