No sandbox is because they do not want to do it. Period. End of Story. "They don't want to do it."

And, basically, we've got the reason why EA gutted the game. You gotta give the players what they want or they stop supporting the game. And, reminder, having 300,000 people playing is NOT 300,000 people paying (as this forum plainly shows, often). New content is nice and no complaints (other than the traditional, "it's too expensive!") but when feature requests are continuously ignored a game will wither and die. I don't watch ads and I no longer buy GC, I'm nothing but a drain on server resources until my bank runs dry then gone forever. I could find a reason to stick around if something new came along but... alas... all we're gonna get are new cars and the occasional new track. Just doesn't do it for me. Now, if there was even a glimmer of a hope they'd fix OMP I might find it interesting still. Instead, it's nothign but a couple hours one night a week farming exercise. WTTT is nothing but a couple hours one night a week farming excersise. I've knocked out the higher paying ES's and there is simply no point in doing any careers anymore, not a single one of them has a decent ROI and I don't need them to unlock new cars. There is nothing worth playing in the game, to me, anymore. This is why game companies are realizeing that OMP is where everything is at. The constantly changing challenge of playing against others. Interacting with others. Oh wait... that's gone too... it's basically just multiple TT runs with an ELO scoring system and simple linear payout table. Yawn. I get in, make my 15 and get out. Why the fark would I play for days to earn 10-15? I can(could) make more running boring but easy laps in an ES for higher ROI.

So, when I hear, "they don't wanna" I hear abandonment. NO need to reply; either I can guess what you'll say or it'll be unrelatable. Have a great night.
