Most of all I'd like the games' programmers to close the loopholes so it would be all and only about who has the best driving skills instead of who knows the loopholes and shortcuts best.

You would think that if loopholes are debated and as well known as they are here, the people at firemonkeys would close them. You would think that if you report a bug they would care to fix it. You would think they care a bit about the technical quality of their work.

Reality is that for the last year or so they are only interested in the commercial quality. Only reproducing what is cheapest and easiest to reproduce. No new track for ages, no really new features. Only repackeging of old stuff. More cars, nice; more events, nice, but in the end it's all just copy and paste programming, change some parameters et voila....new car.

Don't get me wrong. I think rr3 is a great game...but still, it could be so much better. I agree with that thoroughly. But there is another thing which FM is forgetting. Has FM ever looked at it's reviews by us players on the Google's Playstore and Apple's Appstore? I have played many other driving games like Gear.Club and Assoluto Racing and their developers respond very quickly to any glitches any of it's customer tell in the game's review. They give a reply or they send a patch in just a few days. But with FM, they have never ever replied to any of it's customer's reviews that are a concern, unless you send a request yourself on FM's website.

I guess EA/FM has been busy lately, particularly as a new NFS game is coming out in November, called the NFS Payback, so I can see why EA/FM is taking an awful lot of time to respond to us RR3 player's requests and concerns. That is what happens when you have a business that is running multiple games at the same time. It also why car's are getting copy-pasted as getting licensing for a car is not easy and needs a tonne of investment.
