Hi All, I don't see a suggestion area so I'll post here: What do you think would would be the most significant improvements to the game?
I think these are reasonably achievable (based on the progress I'm seeing; I'm not a programmer OR modder):
1. AI improvements that would allow for
- Races with computer opponents that avoid objects, slow down for curves, etc
- Coordination with the mission system in development. For example you could have police missions to stop criminals from reaching a certain point (either by level of damage or keep them from moving for 5 seconds)
- Traffic! Perhaps somebody could strip mods and create "traffic" versions that require less processor power? i don't know, but RoR needs immersive-ness that empty worlds don't give
2. Bugs and details fixed with night mode and weather - maintains interest in existing maps rather than new content
- Headlights that illuminate the terrain! Night mode is unusable the way it is, IMHO
- Options for selecting weather. Bonus if it affects friction of surfaces.
3. Immersive stuff like
- more dirt, dust, mud, water splatters
- tire tracks
- nature sounds or city sounds
- maybe smaller maps but with more detail and interactive content (piles of crates to crash through, barrels to knock over, barn doors to crash through, etc)
