GP2 and GP3?

[xLMx1994]

does anyone else think that putting GP3 and GP2 into career would make this game better? im surprised they are not in this game already seing as only three drivers in F1 this year have not raced in GP2. its were all the new F1 drivers are coming from, and it travels with F1, so why not adapt it into the game (obviously there is liscencing) i know some people would just want F1, and wouldnt want to do GP2 and 3 in career before F1, so in the interview at the begining they could say "what series are you going to be racing in?" or "are you going to be racing in GP3 or have you got a contract in GP2 or F1?" i would love the support races. its one things that made SBK X much better than any other superbike game before. its definetley one thing i want to see in the next game.

i think there should be some sort of sub levels in the career mode. something where you have to start and then earn your ride as a test driver, and then as a driver. I would also like to se the ability to start a team from scratch.

there is NO chance of GP2.i asked on twitter and got a reply saying "we asked (GP2) and its not allowed :(" shame. GP2 would have been great

It would be a business or gaming disaster. They would either have to make a half hearted effort with both sides of the game and make a poor game, or do it perfectly and sell what would effectivley be 2 games in one. Which would clearly require twice the cost and effort of production, not to mention time; and then to sell it as 1 game. Business FAIL right there. I agree, a GP2 game would be great, but it would have to be a separate game all together if it was to work.

A couple years ago nascar did it with several different series and it was quite good. Now keep in mind the lower series didnt have the details or mechanics that the top series had. In the nascar game they had spint cup, nationwide, truck series, and modifieds. Basically you started at modifieds and had to work your way up through each series and gain sponsers. In each series you had different chassis types and different motors for different tracks. Now i do keep in mind that f1 is far more advanced than nascar but i think something more could be done. I would even be happy if started you out as a test driver and you had to earn your ride. Then how about building your own team. I am not familiar with f1 but do they have a series that uses the older used f1 cars. The nationwide series for nascar used to be the 2 or 3 year old sprint cup cars that were sold off. If they had a series like that then maybe they could keep it similar but just use the info from a few years ago to make the lower tier series.

yh the last SBK had three different classes, all put into one career and that was good to.

Instead of GP2 did what they did in F1 2006 (I think, was on PS2) were you do 3 laps to try and meet the requirements of one of three teams, then become a test driver then get promoted. Same tracks, no real extra cost.

i would love the jerez test track they use in winter testing. they wont put any testing or anything in the next game though. they are to worried about putting features in that are really crap, like the interviews. the career is way to repetitve. i have given up on 7 seasons, got to boring. features like testing would make it better. at the moment the same thing happens every season.

lets take out the new cars and track equation. How bout starting a creating your own team, like an owner mode. You get to make all the decisions and start out with a certain budget. Then you can gain bigger sponsors. with the extra money you can change to different motors from the bigger teams or move to a different chassis. Also how you do in the interviews can effect your reputation and sales of your merchandise. I'd hate to make it gimmiicky but this stuff happens IRL and is sometimes just as important as the race itself. Also a car and helmet editor would work well with the created team. Maybe also add in that you get to do the recruiting process for the second driver position. You start out with crappy prospects because your team sucks. After it gets better you get to make offeres to higher profile drivers.

That would be a great feature but the sad truth is the strict licence that Codemasters have with the FIA won't allow things like that to ever become a reality. They *have* to stick to the current teams, current sponsors, current liveries and current drivers. It's part of the licence.
