This is what is annoying me. I don't mind LTS, I don't mind SE, I liked the last gauntlet (the previous ones were silly tho). The 2017 Altima is not available to win. The issue is too many LTS per update, and a lack of variation.

That is fair.

However, think of it this way. Every SE requires a script. However lame it is, someone has to come up with the plot line, what characters will be included, how that will tie into the different stages and races, etc. That takes a lot of effort and creativity, usually from a team of writers. Then that all has to be coded, game tested, etc. especially when they are adding parameters that are not a normal part of the game.

LTS give the opportunity to bring more cars into the game with less development work. The problem is that it ends up being the same old same old because there are no new tracks and the bots race the same line all the time.

What the game actually needs is to make the bots unpredictable and when it is a bot like Auralpod, less than 100% perfect. LH and Seb don't win every time. Every now and again they make an unforced error, put a foot wrong, take a weird line... Why should Auralpod be any different? Maybe every now and again he can forget to change his engine map from the parade lap and derate as he is heading into turn 2 at Barcelona....
