Course Maker - ONLINE - only 1 track?

[Couga99]

My problem is with PD why give us track maker, when you can only load 1 track online. Seems pretty pointless to me...You have to create a new room every time you want to change the track. Not looking forward to GT7 at all..if this is signs to come. PD = FAIL.

Not being able to swap in and out of the made tracks like regular tracks does seem pretty weak. If there's one problem with TPE tracks PD should fix, this is it. I want to be able to run race nights with my friends with all the various tracks we've made and it's practically impossible - or rather plain difficult.

Yeah, it's pretty lame having a good room going but people start leaving due to boredom of the same track. So you explain you'll make a new room for a different track, and only 2 or 3 follow you. You have to wait till non friends from the previous one find you, or get a new lineup of racers join who just want to race dirty.
This needs addressing ASAP as it's killing the online experience for me and others. You could change tracks from custom to original, and back again in GT5 as many times as you liked, why not in GT6 ?

Well, the connection in online lobbies is pretty fragile, and downloading new tracks while you're in a lobby is perhaps more than the system can deal with?

Smacks of poor programming to me. If you're in Eifel and you just want to swap to another Eifel track, how much effort is that? Even swapping terrains shouldn't be hard - the tools are there already. Having a lousy online lobby system in general is another fault - one we've been waiting far too long to fix.
