well the first one wasnt a big deal I was just making a bookmark and this is what I got.

THIS one is a PROBLEM.
I was doing the Koenigsegg Delivery mission(for the SECOND time...yes I LOST my entire career basically because the mouse orientates itself to centre RIGHT on New Game and I barely use the mouse as I mapped all the useful functions to my wheel, ANYWAYS )
SO Im STUPIDLY listening to the GPS voice and miss my Turn(no surprise there)so I try to "carefully" do a U-turn and end up having to Reverse and well THAT was the end of THAT attempt...The car is STUCK on the Curb Forward, Reverse, NOTHING its stuck and just spinning its wheels.

Okay THIS has gotta be changed and this pic is just a MINOR example of the "brilliant" Pop-ups which can basically BLIND YOU...(cmon now guys give us some Toggles would ya or at LEAST the option to add Transparency to these silly things) I mean take for instance the Eliminator in the East end. The Leaderboard is PERSISTANT and takes up almost HALF of my Windshield...
Now I would LIKE to suggest make them A: transparent, B: ONLY pop up when Info changes C: have CHOICE to have them there period(I dont care what the AI are turning for lap times that STOOPID Split Time blocks my view and tells me that) as for that stuff perhaps you could allow to adjust its position or all the above options I mentioned if NOT why not AT LEAST move it to the TOP of the screen NOT the MIDDLE of it(Im sure there aren't many TrackIR users like myself but I can ALSO tell you that the GPS arrows are LOCKED in the centre of your View because they MOVE with my head tracking sorry guys but that is just DUH!!!..... weirdblue

Well I mean I know Im gonna ride the Devs like you wouldnt believe about the STUPID stuff(I know it was a Console game first but cmon guys this is NOT the same platform).
Im not a 12yr old kid who wants to drive in 3rd person view. Im a 31 yr old with a house a job and a DARN nice PC that I built to SIM.
Well here we are in TD:U with all the elements to appeal to a "Simmer" like me. I mean you got full H-gate support, yes I think its VERY poorly done but I have a big post about it and I will CONTINUE to post until they "disconnect the Shifter from the Clutch.
Basically the shifter does NOT function unless the Clutch is depressed so basically its like Driving a BIG RIG not a Sports Car I USUALLY "Blip Downshift" Until I get to 3rd or 2nd depending on the Corners so that means I DONT need the Clutch, I KNOW how to "Match Shift" so could PLEASE let me??? thanks weirdblue(you cant "rewrite" proper racing technique NOR should I have to learn some Half-Arsed way that YOU have come up with because the REAL way it should work seemed to have been lost on you folks) . NOTHING is more annoying then having to dodge some of your STUPID AI's behaviour and have to "panic downshift" only to find yourself STUCK in Neutral and scrambling to "find a gear" I mean SURE I may miss the odd shift but your system almost makes it INEVITABLE if anyone with any experience is trying to use it like it should be(not too mention the Auto Clutch shifts like Im driving to the store with not a care in the world for speed...)
I HAVE to thank you for the TrackIR support that IS a Simmers dream and a basic requirement to any SIM/TrackIR user is they EXPECT to be able to use it in "Serious" games so hey you ARE thinkng about "me" I appreciate it, Basically EVERY game I play regularly supports it.So THAT I have nothing but THIS to say :atari: 10sur10 Sadly thats about the only thing I have "Kudos" for at the moment, you WERE thinking of the Simmers with the Hardcore Mode(we'll when I get to Champion the SECOND time and I can try Hardcore Mode and maybe THEN I will understand the rest of the "Kiddie" features you have now....or at least the Kiddie features that a sim guy like me can do without
SO yeah to Sum it up I LOVE this game but I HATE the VERY silly things that either A: should have been looked at as CONSOLE stuff and NOT needed on the PC, or B: the Bugs/Errors, Poor design choices(GUI, clutch, AI behaviour etc.)
You HAVE my support dont get me wrong Im just going to VERY Vocal about whats WRONG with it :salut2:
