    I don’t have the time multiplier set.

    Over a 15-20 minute race, I’m seeing the clouds layer changing around 3 times, I don’t believe the sun position is changing in the sky.

    I recently purchase this game last night.Works surprisingly well on the ROG Xbox Ally White—smooth performance.I mainly picked this up for the WTCR content,We also desperately need more US tracks added to the service—having Road Atlanta and Sebring in the game would be an absolute dream.

    That said, the game could really use some improvement on the AI racing side. It’s decent, but it definitely needs more polish for a better single-player experience.

    The only major drawback for me is the mandatory always-online requirement. Having to stay connected even for single-player modes is a bit frustrating, especially on a handheld device.

    The pit menu used to show how much virtual energy was added for a given amount of fuel. With the new hud that info has disappeared and as ive had to realise is dearly missed when trying to determine race strategy for a hypercar race

    I started Raceroom purely becaus of DTM 13-16 and 2020 cars and i've really been loving it. That said, i hope at some point there will be sound update for BMWs of 13-16 DTM models as they really doesn't sound very good compared to Audi or Mercedes. Also AI could use some polish, it's alright but at almost every track they are very slow in some corners and then fully OP at some others.
    Hopefully they don't forget these older cars because they really are awesome to drive and a breath of freah air nowadays when every sim is starting to be all about GT3s

    Well, those cars got new physics last year in June and another smaller update this August. I don't think any car will ever be forgotten in RaceRoom, even the delisted cars are updated from time to time. :)
