Talk:The Gauntlet (Season 5)/@comment-2.126.82.97-20160427095600/@comment-26249703-20160427103129

I agree. There seems to be too many restrictions around it (upgrade/service time/cost, choice of cars, retry cost, entry cost to each race, ...), meaning you have to approach The Gauntlet in a very specific way. They could do away with the retry cost and keep the rest, so people can have experiences like you described, based on more than luck or willingness to spend time saving and restoring over and over again.

Or they could just go back to the format in the first couple of Gauntlets and be happy that they created something enjoyable and fresh, rather than tweaking it for profit and ultimately making it worse.
