BSpec RPG leveling system

[RedBullRacer]

I was thinking, wouldn't it be really cool if instead of randomising the BSpec drivers stats, they did like a proper RPG style leveling up system.

You'd start by picking drivers name and overalls, and then at level 1 you'd get say 20 points, you can then assign these points to whatever category you want. You'd have, like it is now, speed, cornering, braking, overtaking etc etc but, you would be in control of his stats.

I think this would make it so much more rewarding watching your BSpec driver develop, and it would be setup so that even if you hit level 40 you wouldn't have enough points to max out all the categories. Some people would have drivers really fast down the straights but then terrible at braking, and some would be fantastic at overtaking etc etc

I think if they did this is could become really really advanced, and I honestly don't see it being that hard to implement. I love BSpec at the moment, but it kinda feels too random and like I really don't have any say in how my drivers develop.

B-spec mode is completly broken anyway. Its not with that kind of upgrade that the mode will be better.

In a RPG when you reach Higher level the challenge is suppose to be bigger... In B-spec mode .. not...

You just leave the driver drive and wait the end of the race. Come back, restart the race over and over since you reach lvl 40 and after that ? nothing...

Its pure grinding.

I think we should be able to assign the exp to their different attributes, rather then them getting auto-assigned.

I think B spec has been a little like a job rather than a game. It was something I felt I had to do, since I'd be disadvantaged in terms of cash and cars if I didn't.

Still feel that way.

Its "completely broken" if you make the choice to put your driver in a car that is not competitive with the other cars in the race. Personally, I think they should put a limit on PP for cars entered into B-spec races so people don't get into the mode of "b-spec is grinding [with the x2010], wah wah wah".

If you don't have a sense of sportsmanship, that isn't the games fault.

I like the idea of the PP system, or at least show the opposing AI's PP in the car list. Also, kinda off topic, but how Bob's have Cornering, Braking, and Speed listed as green bars I would really like to see collission avoidance in there. I HATE how my Bob just flies right into the back end of cars, when there is a clear and defined hole to pass through. It's so annoying to see my car beat to hell by lap 6 because Bob wants to make a sandwhich of 300ZXs. it's annoying. and was even worse prior to the patch. it still is godawful though
