Hello,
That’s the kind of suggestions we would like to introduce. I agree it’s much better than cosmetics or other changes. But store and compile race replays is extremely expensive in terms of servers and data base. Please remember everyone we’re a small studio, to keep evolving we need to fund the future changes.
Cosmetics is put in place with the aim of avoid pay 2 win to make revenue. It doesn’t hurt anyone, is just cosmetics you can take it or simply don’t use it. But it’s another revenue source for us that will help us to keep improving the game to a much better product with more time requiring updates and solve new technical challenges.
I think not many appreciate how well balanced the game is in terms of pay to win compared to other games of the same genre or generally. We don’t have any “special boost” that makes your race pace awesome compared to the rest, that would be the easier and safer way to make revenue and keep financing the project, but we prefer to sell liveries, driver aspects, etc. Those with zero impact on the real gameplay or game mechanics.
I do appreciate you are a small studio, infact i appreciate your dedication to the game over the years and making it as true as possible to the sport of F1 with your current capabilities. I do have further suggestions for livery/cosmetic which i will note in a later post when i have time, i agree that making the game pay 2 win would ruin it entirely.
I think i can confidently say most of us have tried the F1 Manager game app and without getting into too much can also say that a game like that is definitely not what we want for iGP Manager, infact far from it.
I am content that the suggestion has been approved and will in time, with successful revenue and support, will be added to the game.
Many thanks for your response!
