A drive through would likely be a lot more than the penalty. As someone said earlier, adding penalties at the end is more viable but I'd love to be a fly on the wall for 1st place with a minute's worth of penalties...
Anyhoo. I give up. Whatever they decide on, I'll deal with it.
(Maintenance tomorrow so keep your fingers crossed but don't hold your breath for a change. I think they'll want to see how this new harsher system plays out with more data.)
Of course, Mate!
Any way.. very honestly this and other´s harsh ways of penalization should only be implemented after a more correct and fair penalization system being implemented...and that can only be possible if the software routines with the aid of improved AI (also software) would become much more fair and correct on the determination of the % of blame to be attributed in any contact/shock between players and all the events that may come out of it... (such as ramming against a wall or other racers... mainly)...
Will it ever happen??
I ´m not sure but one thing is certain...
The game knows every input used by every racer in every condition and in any moment from the game, knows every thing that is happening on the game while playing it. except,, what goes through each players mind (and heart..) ... knows the speed, acceleration, weight, physical condition of the car and track in every moment... and it has his own AI... so...
Even if the AI ain´t perfect.. it has for every moment the what should be the most correct behavior (with some limitations of course) to be taken... and so it has enough data to compare between the most correct options and those taken by the players... for any situation...
It´s only data. I know... but it´s more or less based on data that "truth machines" are used... and this can always be quantified and deviations calculated...
It will not be an human like decision surely.. but I´m sure it may get someway close to fair.. and equal to everyone... as long as they try to do it... that kinda work & software... (if they ever di it... it would rule.. surely... above all racing simulations...
