So, let say FM is mildly successful in fixing OMP, WTT, Team Challengers as they claim in Reddit. No more easy glitch and easy “cheats”. The game will be mostly level playing field. Advantages belong to: 1. Fast drivers

2. Players with lots of coins. How will that play out? 1. There will still be players with more coins that others

2. There will still be players faster than others

3. There will still be more coins being spent to win cars and races than coins being won (FM economic model)

Will it be correct to assume that changes are being made because of forum complains and suggestions, as many seem to think so? It does not matter now as FM promised they are coming. And contrary to what people say, FM is good at what they do regardless of misconception of their incompetence. Just because there are aspects of the game that players do not like does not mean the game developers do not know what they are doing. Besides, the developers are most likely not the ones who decide how the game is developed moving forward. RR3 in general is better than others in the market. Will players old and new still want to play the game? Of course they will. But I think it will be really hard for noobs to keep up and get to a competitive state. I also think it will be less attractive for veteran players to maintain their 100% goals. Is this what FM wants? It really does not take long for new players to realise it takes serious money to play a “free-mium” game. $156 for 1024 coins is not very appealing when a top-end car cost 1000 coins and another 1000+ to upgrade to be competitive. A total spend of 2000+ for a possible return of 200-300+. We all know the economic model is stacked very much to FM favour, and against the players. So, very soon, no more cheats, no more glitches. Almost level-playing field where FM economic model will get players to spend real money, while spending lots of time being frustrated.

Is this good for players? I guess we will find out soon.
