I start off by making an unambiguous disclosure - The game is one of its kind on the mobile platform and there's no doubt about its potential.

Event Archives - What initially seened to be a great initiative, has turned out to be an absolute dud. Virtually all cars in this release have already been offered in some event over the past 12 months. So unless you are a relatively newer player who will definitely have to make IAPs for cars from current roster, its a non starter. Explanations provided for such obvious idiocy only reflect laziness from decision makers.

New cars - Spewing out 5 anemic GT4s in a new Motorsports Cat is good for broader choice, but inconsequential for any individual player, as just one is sufficient for series completion.

Stunted gameplay - Monkey's definition of playability for new cars continues to remain agonizingly predictable. Limited tiers in Career with miniscule Cups. But same old splattering of regurgitated, tedious, grinder TCs where teams have to slog for hours repeating the select few efficient events like zombies. There's been ZERO innovation in terms of introducing any new type of event, something that is definitely possible within the game's current architecture.

The whole argument against adding any new radical feature or event type - That legacy devices will be left out, is utter BS. One doesn't have to be an industry expert to know how often majority of gamers cycle their devices. Even by a conservative estimate, it isn't more than 2-3 yrs. This is a blatant inability/unwillingness to atleast try to break new ground. No rational person expects mobile gaming platform to come even close to the console/PC environment. But that is no excuse for total lack of incremental innovation within the limitations of mobile gaming architecture.

In the highly competitive times of tech advancement that we live in, it is hard to find any parallel of EA/FM's abject arrogance, in taking RR3's monopoly for granted.

Hopefully, current decision makers will be booted out in due course of time, or FM gets acquired by someone else who knows better.
