Hi friendI’m not in a good position to say anything about this so I’ll stay quiet.
Bla bla bla bla.. what an original point of view. At least I hope one day you'll open your eyes and understand why Football is the king of all sports on earth. Maybe you won't and honestly I feel sad for you because you are really missing something.The world cup is for pussies who are particularly good at taking a bullet wound from the slightest touch of an opposition player. All these soccer players should be in Hollywood, not earning millions playing a boring game decided by whoever is better at acting and falling over.
End of rant

You seem to believe that we're going to get worked up over a soccer tournament.@Meff28s, this is the real reason
World Cup is a little over-exposed anyway, since we're going to do it all over again in 2020 when the Olympics come around.You seem to believe that we're going to get worked up over a soccer tournament.

maybe mod motorsport manager to get a simulator of some sort?Tbh we have excel games at the moment. We need GP4 or other racing game based games to return with videos of the races. They were the games that got most people involved.

I don't think it matters that we have a lot of excel games, and I don't really care. If it's good then it deserves a place on this forum. The suggested game is a different type than what we had before.
I like the idea. But, you need to think very carefully about it. When I first tried to run racing manager, I included a complex system where the players managed things beyond just their strategy (my first thought when you mentioned transport costs), with quite a complex budget system. This was very complicated both for me to mod and for the players (especially casual players) to properly understand. So try to avoid such a scenario for your game.
Things I can suggest from experience that I've already thought of for Racing Manager v2:
-Use low values for costs of things (like, scale millions down to hundreds or thousands). Not a big thing but I personally find those easier to read.
-Avoid giving too much info in DMs each race. Not because it's bad but because it'll get very time consuming, especially when you can only do one DM every 30 seconds.
-Don't add too many things. That's one of the things I don't like about Omer's Formula Manager. It becomes too much when you have to keep track of many things, especially for multiple drivers.
PS: didn't you ask me like in the beginning of 2017 on how to build an accurate excel simulation? would be quite something if you worked on this for over a year!
While I don't own the game, I will say that rFactor 1 had very random results when games were run using it. If the results are that random, then an excel game may even be better for consistency.I've always wanted to do something with rFactor 2, in that game you can adjust the values of the cars which could replicate driver, team and car imrpovements. However I'd need to do a lot of testing. As far as videos go I think I'd settle for highlights rather than a full broadcast, especially if it were centered around endurance racing.
