I love the new league system and am excited about the prospects it brings.
Thought it would be good to have a thread detailing specific league requests and hopefully Turn 10 could implement a few over time.
With “free race” and “private multiplayer” not providing the ability to set up series we would like then leagues could at least partially address our desires.
I’ll start by saying I would love a league set up for historic Grand Prix racing with the various legends of motorsports.
This thread is regarding Turn 10 leagues and not community hosted ones
If a mod feels this thread shouldn’t exist then by all means lock. I didn’t add to wishlist as I personally feel these suggestions may warrant their own thread
They may well do warrant a thread, but I think we should wait a while first. The full game isnt live yet and we dont really have any idea whats planned for the league system.
I have a feeling that this will happen anyway. The Gt hopper in FM5 was very popular and T10 recognised this by bringing it back after it was initially removed. I’m positive that in time we’ll get series specific hoppers. I’d love to see ones based around Gt, Touring cars and V8 supercars.
Hey Everyone, i didn’t see one for this yet so i thought i’d kick it off. Looks like we can get some pretty specific settings for the League lobbies so my guess is Turn10 can take our requests and form new leagues for us.
Maybe a moderator can sticky this if this is indeed something they might be looking into doing.
My suggestion is to do this by track rotation, class and restrictions.
MY EXAMPLE;
League - C Class GP World Tour
Class - C500
Track rotation - Real world Full or GP only
Restrictions - hot hatch only
I also think there should be an official Turn10 or Forza track rotation for Full/GP, short/club, and road tracks. The current lobby track rotation voting system is completely broken and causes half the lobby to leave regularly. If you could choose hoppers and leagues based on track styles and not just cars this would solve a huge portion of the social issues you created by taking away public lobbies and forcing us to play together in styles you choose if we want to play with anyone not already on our friends list.
I’d like to see the League specification details and track lists become viewable from the “League selection menu”… once you go in… If I’m not mistaken… You are joined
Seeing the track rotation list would be awesome. It would give you a better chance to tune for specific tracks, rather than have a generic setup until you figure out the rotation on your own.
I’d also like to see the leaderboard scores and positions added to the Race results after each race… or maybe to the player list in the lobby in between races…
Personally, I think it would be cool to have a league with no assists. Specifically, no TCS/STM. I’d also like to see a league where you had to build one specific car to a specific PI.
The latter would simply be recurring races using the 2 Nordschleife layouts (classic + N24) with Day, Night and Rain as options. This was a popular Custom Public Lobby choice in Gran Turismo 6 as the sheer scale of the circuit means that you’ll rarely get a prefect lap, but would happily keep trying and gradually make improvements on your laptimes.
I want another collision enabled league available when the existing one is closed. Maybe one of the user suggested ones from this thread>?
I really like hot lapping and trying new cars. Doing it in a lobby with 24 other people makes it a lot more fun and highlights some cars I hadn’t thought about building.
I also think they’ve done a great job with the selections. The Touring Cars were awesome, Alpha33 vs BAC class (err A-class) was kinda lame V8’s were awesome, A-class muscle cars are good now that most people have gotten used to having less braking and grip than a BAC Mono…
Point is I like the league so much I wish there was another collision league to fill the LONG gap between windows. (6:30pm EST to 11:00pm EST???) I stay up just to race because it’s the best racing I’ve ever had in an online game… quick to find matches. Of the 24 in a lobby, 2 or 3 will be “fast” 5-6 will be almost exactly the same pace as me… 10 will be a competent drivers that a fun to try pass… the other 4 or 5 are complete idiots that show no matchmaking system is perfect.
Also… lag hasn’t been a problem in most of the races, so think it would be fun to try sim damage in one of the hoppers… Might be the most frustrating thinsg in the world or could possibly teach people to pass properly. Would likely end the 1st corner crashes. Although might be grief-ing heaven… see how many people you can take out ? Don’t know…
Variety. One single-class ghost lobby, and one “themed” lobby per week, that’s it??
And all you see in the ghost lobbies is LB cars.
Also, lose the time restraints. There’s absolutely no reason for them, and all they do is force ppl rearrange their schedules if they want to participate.
