The things you call here are very minor, and don't really mean a lot to the players on PGR3. If you really did listen to the fanbase you are losing, then this list wouldn't exist:
Shiftglitch: I never played PGR2, but what I've heard is that there also was a shiftglitch in that game. And I really don't get it why you put the same thing that everbody hated in PGR3. Also look at the speeddrop you get when shifting up. In the Nissan GT-R Concept you loose almost 15 km/h when shifting up. Now you don't need to be an expert to tell that in real life this car get's a speeddrop of 2 or less km/h.
Wallbashing: This is the most irritating thing in PGR3. Why are you making it able to wallbash? Do you have testers there at Bizarre? Look at the hairpin in The Old City Loop, or the last corner in City Hall Park. You don't even have to take the wallbash to figure out it is there. A smooth wall around the outside of a hairpin doesn't work! And it especially doesn't work on a game with the same damagemodelling as PGR3.
Automatic Gears: Oh god. Do you know how a automatic gearbox works? In PGR3 is shifts down on the same speedtrap as it shifts up. THIS DOESN'T WORK!!! A normal AT car would shiftdown a lot later. And Ben, just try this: Try to take the 1st corner of the Tropicana Tour in 4th gear with a Ferrari Enzo, driving automatic Then you know exactly what I'm talking about.
Tournaments: Now on this point, it's very clear that you don't give a (fill in yourself) about your fanbase. Everybody, and I mean EVERYBODY want's manual tournaments. It is possible, so why don't you use it??? You also want the mainstream gamer to enter those tournaments? Well, they can't because the top players that drive manual are also the top players with automatic. So no mather what you do, you'll always have the same people entering these tournaments. And the people entering these tourneys all want MT. But you guys just seem to ignore it...
Platinum: I can drive more than 5 seconds faster on a hotlap on Hardcore. That's stupidity at it's best. What happend to the times to achieve a platinum medal on PGR2? This game is to easy, also in an offline playtime lobby. If you ever play Toca Race Driver, you should put the AI difficulty at 110% Then you know how 'hardcore' a racing game can be.
Tournament Lobby's:
Why? Why do I get booted out the lobbys every minute? Why do I always get the message "Unable to continue with current tournament task"? This has nothing to do with our internet connections, so don't try that excuse.
Tournament Prizes: It's been five months now. I still didn't get a single thing. Problems with shippings? Don't try that on me, cos my friend who lives one mile away from me DID get his Xbox 360 PGR 100 Console. I'm still waiting for my faceplate and that T-shirt I should get. I didn't won a console because I got booted out of the lobby in the semi-finals. Is that how you are trying to tell us to buy PGR4? It isn't working
Garages: We got 107 cars and 84 spots in our garages... what's rong here? Ow, you couldn't add garages because it didn't fit in the 'code' of the game. You sound like a comedian. Really, you do.
Backwards Compatible: This is in Microsoft's hands? Sure, I believe that, but you guys also don't want PGR2 to be BC. You want people to buy PGR3 instead of playing PGR2 on the Xbox 360. If you really want PGR2 to be BC, then step up to Microsoft and tell them. Or are they to busy making Barbie's Horse World BC?
Cat & Mouse: Bizarre... this isn't the way C&M works. It's suposed to be 2vs2vs2vs2 instead of 4vs4 and the E-classe car needs te get invisible, because now you can ram a Mini, and keep it there for the next five days.
Yeah, you guys are really convincing us to buy PGR4, because you did great work with PGR3. Now wait... my mom always told my I'm not aloud to lie, so I didn't said that last line
