Scheduled races

#1
We spoke with some of the old school MC players today and one suggestion that was brought up is reverting the racing aspect of MC back to scheduled racing where races happened every X minutes, rather than instantly.

The purpose is to prevent players from spam racing and keep more players online.

We'd like your thoughts on this. Please share your input!

Thanks!

I don't think that's a good idea Cres. That would mean less racing and more difficult to level-up. That would put off most people rather than keeping more people online longer. Just my 2 cents.

Btw, some people are put-off getting online in the first place as the slower cars will get spam when online with faster cars who wants more experience. The only way maybe for this to work is for the option of accepting or declining races while online but no restriction when offline and in a car ie you can get spammed when offline but not when you are online. Now that would definitely encourage people to be online most of the time..:-)

This would work if it went back to accept/decline races, every 2 minutes, and EXP was lowered to account for the lack of racing. But offline races were kept so you could get quick (albeit lower) EXP. But you might need to bring back being able to sell your car, otherwise people would get pissed.

Ok, well look in to that suggestion. Thanks!

As for scheduled races making levelling slower, we'd adjust the exp per race and required exp per level to accommodate that.

I was reading your posts but slept halfway through....sorry Justin! Anyway, from what I managed to read, some of the things has been implemented by Cres. Agree, the cars/parts obtainable should be made available to those with lower level by either purchasing or by some sort of competition.

But I dont agree with the option of selling your current car. Then everyone are just gonna stay out after racing to maintain their ratio. Only do that if we can accept/decline races.

I loved to accept a race and wait till that time hits and click refresh to see money or that sweet car in the bank. Thats when the sleeper crews would come out Big Grin the good times.
