Or at least implement a mode that focuses more on standings than skill chains. As is there’s no point to even trying to place highly if there’s even ONE person with a horizon edition who decides to just do skill chains someplace off the track away from others. Had a championship yesterday where I placed in the top 3 every race and lost to a Focus HE by over 50,000 XP who never placed any higher than 5th in any race. This is a RACING game. How is there not a mode that actually focuses on that?
That exists in free roam with teammates/friends if one sets up a tournament. In that instance it’s all based on finishing posistion.
Not sure why that isn’t available in multiplayer.
Sry but maybe there are things such as simulation bonuses etc. also applied. Cause I play everything full sim, and dunno if the game even accounts for that in the xp or not, but I ONLY race NO fancy stuff, and end up second most of the time without even placing higher than 4th place!
