i dont care about pitcrews...

hi,

this other thread got a little bit out of hand, didnt read it all (too long), so i just start a new one.
i dont care about pitcrews. i gave them the lowest resolution, and i would have preferred infogrames to spend their time on more important things like multiplayer, bug-checking, tv-timings in free practice and so on...

i would like to know... is there anybody resting and waiting for the pit radio to give you the command before he leaves the pits ? i am alway halfway down the pitlane when i hear them call their "fertig" far behind in my back. sometimes i wave them goodbye. ridiculous.

just my two pennies... greetings, jp

Yes i do wait, they wait until the AI have passed, thus safe.



Like my sig? TELL ME!!!! =P

I think the pitcrews were a vital addition. That was the weakpoint of gp3, and they addressed it well.
Multiplayer won't happen, as the fia licence doesnt cover it.

If you do just a quick search in the old forum, you will get 96 entries with "pitcrew" and 204 with "pit crew". I have not even bothered searching for the plurals and other spellings, but I certainly do remember a lot of people making a lot of fuss over the old cardboard pit crews. Now they are gone, and thats bad as well?

It's only after we've lost everything, that we are free to do anything.

i never understood why people were making such a big deal over pitcrews in gp3, everybody wanted 3d-animated pitmen.

to me, the only difference is that i always have to wait a few seconds until i am lowerded down, before i am allowed to go onto the track. so in this special point, i like gp1/2/3 better than gp4...

but on the other hand... these physics, this unbelivable AI, these gps tracks (so narrow, so up and down). what a great game gp4 is.

greetings, jp

But surely this is a logical development, an attempt to push the genre forward? It isnt vital by any means, but it is important to most people, because a game can be improved through AI and physics, but if it isnt visually better too, what warrants the two year wait?
