I have the Xbox One version of the game and I can only save 10 replays, which is a small amount of them. Usually I want to save a replay for later photography sessions and things like that and I can’t because I don’t want to loose my best racing moments.
Is this number increased on Xbox One X or PC versions? If I remember correctly I saved lots of replays in FM4.
Completely agree. If the replays are saved on the local disc, there’s no reason why you can’t be limited only by available space and not some arbitrary number set by T10. If they are so worried about people overloading the servers, they can limit how many you can upload instead. I went to save the replay of a club race only to be told I had to delete another to make it work.
All XBox game save files have a size limit that is set by MS/XBox … not the individual developers. I am not sure if game replays are included in the game save file size calculations or not, but the size of everything on XBox consoles are tightly controlled by MS/XBox and the developers have to work within those limits. It would not surprise me if limits on replays and similar things are also tightly controlled by the XBox team.
