Finished Career... Issue I have with FM7 (not a Rant)

I finished the career mode today… And after playing many hours with FM7 I must admit there are some issues IMHO must be corrected. Before I post the issues I’d like to tell T10 what I think they did well.

Good Things:
Career Mode allows you to select long and extra long races… Excellent!
Homogulated cars provide good AI in races (although needs adjustments)
Mixture of tracks and layouts during career, (although track selection is poor for a few series… Like the Formula cars F1 series)
Forzathon with multiple challenges
Speciality Dealer
Free Play
Rewards: Cars and Mod’s for increased credits and not modifying the cars handling/power, etc.

Issue which require immediate attention IMHO:
Lighting… Early morning, night, and sunsets… It’s like driving in the dark at times… Can’t see track or markers. I know IRL visibility is poor, but the game is horrible
Forzathon: poorly executed by T10. Forzathon could be very enjoyable… But it should be weekly, function properly, and allow me to complete achievements in any order I choose
Speciality Dealer: again poorly executed… The Titian truck listed twice already… WTH. These should cycle more ten and at random… Make it where yu have 24 hours not seven days
AI in Career Mode: Very inconsistent… i.e I can beat unbeatable in all classes though A, but then S and higher classes are like super heroes. Which is ok… But when I go to 80%, the lead car is still uncatachable… I found in P1 for a 7 lap race I had to use 40% sometimes like at Sebring… But at other tracks say Road Atlanata… 80% was acceptable/challenging. I think T10 should introduce 0-110% and allow gamers to set in increments of 1 % changes.
Career Mode: Forcing me to race a 4x4 truck in 40" mud tires on a road track. Or a buggie with same tires. But the Razors were the worst. I could not believe I was being forced to drive such vehicles. I’m ok with T10 using the FH3 cars as they total count just to attract childish gamers… But don’t make us race them. Or at least allow us to change to race slicks race brakes, lower the suspension, etc…!
Free Play: Aollw me to build my own series… And track series points… Up to 10 races. Should be as easy as allowing us to set number of laps

I’m not going to restate the online issues… They’ve been stated enough. What I’d like to know is what issues you feel must be corrected immediately.

You should clean your keyboard (or at least the o key).

That being said, I completely agree with everything and don’t have much to add either.

Good eye… Darn “O” key is broken… IPad with ZAG keyboard… Sorry !

Being able to create a custom championship in freeplay is a great idea.

Vaild points. I disagree with one. That being the specialty dealer timing. While I agree the car selection has been brow raising, I for one appreciate the longer cycle times. If a car comes up I want, but can’t afford, the 7 day cycle gives me time to comfortably grind for the credits to purchase said car… Rather than cramming in a bunch of races in a 24 hour period.
