Anyway as for your first concern about money races, I suggested only having money races in the trial or "regular" version. Like you said, no medals, and no prizes for regular. Top prizes for reg should be in game rewards, such as credits, or temp memberships. This combined with high credit cost for money races (think 250-500) and I think it wouldnt be abused.
I see your point about the crews, and totally agree. As a person who led a number 3 crew in the past, I know how it used to work. Thats why I suggested a crew range, which would completely balance it out. That way, crews are only racing other crews around there average level. The way its set up now is there is one crew that completely dominates, so why should they get the added benefit of racing 14 second crews?
I think that more than just the top crew should recieve benefits as well, but perhaps im alone on that one.
As for promoting, I always try to help new players. I also think that more than ever, players are willing to help new people out, which is a huge change from the early days. Myspace was just a thought, but its not the advertising thats gonna turn MC around.
Perhaps a new referral system, nothing dramatic, but maybe 500-1000 credits per player that stays playing a designated amount of time
Maybe memberships or other in game bonuses for people who can recruit multiple new players, or maybe just to the top recruiters of new players. There are endless possibilities and oppurtunities in MC. We simply have to get the word out
i dont see a point in spending that much credits to race for money unless there is no cap..otherwise u might as well jus work them because u will probably make more that way...or just HI...
for your comment on crew challenges...i dont think thats fair...basically there are about 1-3 crews running for top in 1 season...if u make it ranges within crew level that means that only those 2-3 crews have to challenge each other...and u know that one crew is most likely going to be a higher lvl...so it basically either no crew races will happen, or that 1 crew is going to be losing the whole time...which in my point of view makes no sense...
ya i dont agree with other people besides top crew get...cuz if it was top 10 crews...everyone will get a top crew medal every season and a top crew leader...its so easy to run a crew for top 10...but winnin #1 is not easy at all...unless there is no competition...it makes no sense and there will be no competition...
i agree that mc needs more promoting and stuff...but jus ask urself this..would u go out and actually try and find people willin to learn the game...have to teach them how to play jus so that they play a certain amount, for 500-1000 credits...hell i wouldnt...thats a waste of my time...i rather just do what i do now and find people like big_bang who wants to learn and tries hard...and ill teach them what i know...
btw...this is only my thoughts..im not trying to throw everything back in ur face...dont take it personally...im jus trying to constructively criticize what you are saying...
