Devs,

I love the ladies so it's a no brainer I want a female driver ?. Unfortunately for me, the tallest female driver I've seen in years has been 190cm.

This shouldn't be so, there are so many giant like ladies in the world!

If male drivers can get to 192cm, then females should not be left out!

Why is the height an issue? With the way you've currently structured the game, 192cm drivers have a slight edge in quali over shorter drivers.

Kindly update the height of female drivers to be on par with the males (basically make them 192cm tall) and also please update your algorithm so we don't have to spend as much as 5000 tokens before seeing a 192cm tall male driver (or female driver, if ever).

Thanks.

I disagree with this idea, on one fundamental issue:



  • Why should females drivers be given the same maximum height as males, when females already have a shorter minimum height?



It makes no sense either from a games point of view (this is taking into account the lower minimum weight (46kg v 51kg) that females drivers already have), or from a realistic online fantasy driver portfolio point of view.

How many 190cm+ female drivers do you know in any racing category?

All in all, I think this suggestion is solely to enhance YOUR (perceived) increase in iGP Manager performance.

You have the tokens across multiple accounts, so can afford to spends thousands of free tokens to gain the advantage.

Right now, Males are better (If we are accepting the height/Qualifying correlation as Causation, that is), and- in a way- that reflects real life.
In the future, maybe driver weight becomes more of a factor and female drivers become the meta, I'd certainly like to see driver weight be more than a number to hit.
Not to mention IRL males average taller than females so this is perhaps the only realistic thing about iGP drivers ?

Gotta love opinions, everyone is able to have some.


FYI, unlike some (you being included) that have tons of accounts I only have and play two. If I use thousands of tokens, I bought those thousands of tokens.

Now iGP is a game and though may have some real life correlation, it is still a game with very unrealistic aspects.

I don’t need to enhance my iGP performance, I’m pretty solid as is. 

My height suggestion stems more from an equality point of view (and in game terms weight has no effect hence no mention of it), oh and because I love women like I opened with ?‍♂️.


Please read to understand before jumping on thread.

I was thinking the same about weight a few days ago. We can only hope to see it in the future as well as a total rework of drivers in general.

The most important thing to do is to update the qualifyng to do not consider height in as a constraint in the algorythm.
Many experienced players have tested it so it's not only a perceived thing...
But many players who complaining about that are the first that are buying token for real money to try to get the 192cm driver, so igp are gaining from that and they are happy from the 192 thing...
So stop gambling your tokens and start asking for an update to make the 192 irrilevant because all of you that are buying tokens to gamble them are part of the problem...

Thank you for your input, now a couple of things:


1. I like to think of myself as a somewhat experienced player, and I know for a fact 192cm tall drivers tend to generally do better in qualifying (though I also suspect drivers have hidden attributes). There’s nothing perceived about that, there have been numerous tests by a lot of people and by me personally as well.

2. You are in absolutely no position to tell me what to do with/or how to spend my money ??. I am happy I can make whatever contribution I can to help, and if I can get something in return (drivers) then it’s a no brainer ?‍♂️.

3. Without constant support of iGP by myself and countless others, do you think that you’ll have a game to come post this comment on or play free? You forget iGP isn’t P2P and every support goes a long way.

Lol if your support is to ask 192cm female drivers i understand why this game is so broken now. My only hope is that this game is going to a sort of e-sport game so they have to balance thing in the right way.... So this 192  exploitation will be eliminated.


If you are in the position to contribuite to the game you can donate a few millions dollar/euro to have a quick developement of the game

Your suggestion is only a waste of time for the devs, it brings nothing new or better to the game, actually you want to keep exploiting a broken thing and you are trying to mask it as an equality problem. Shame on you, in real life man are in average taller than womans. And if you think this is an equality problem (that it's not this case) you should have asked even an equal weight, but you didn't...

Interesting discussion. You guys clearly differ in your views which isn't a bad thing but I think we've gone a bit off topic regarding the funding of iGP, gender equality and exploits. So to prevent this thread degenerating into a slanging match I will close it.

Thanks
Kev.
