ledernierrempart.6871 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 the raciong beetle is really great to use! i congrat the people who made it. thus i really enjoyed racing with it in the few maps with a bettle race event. i would like even more beetle racing events! (maybe with a track in the sky using flying sand path like the maroi kart rainbow track with loopings and stuff!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, mount racing should get a proper game mode with proper racing tracks and not just this improvised stuff we have rn. And it's not just the beetle, the griffon would also be great for racing if you make some low gravity tracks for him. Out of all the stuff A-Net made this probably has the most amount of wasted potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraxxus.8971 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I also would like to see more beetle race tracks. I'm surprised the loop around Tarir in Auric Basin isn't a track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randulf.7614 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I'm in favour of more tracks and more competitions - perhaps added to certain festivals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not being hyperbolicm it was completely abandoned. I got first place in every race I did because no one else entered a single race. How would you all justify the cost of adding to this content when the players have largely abandoned it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 It is dead now because players got what they wanted and newer players prob don’t know about it. Adding it to festivals with festival related rewards attached to tokens hopefully would bring it back to life in periodic occasions. Or do a racing week instead of a boss week. It was populated when it was an event. Making it an event again on occasion seems the way to generate interest The structure and content is already there. So even if they don’t make new tracks, all they need is to bring players to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making it an event again on occasion seems the way to generate interest Add a gold reward for the fastest times and watch the event become popular. Also watch it be exploited and abused, and watch those who exploit/abuse be reported but receive no action. May sound jaded, but doesn't make me wrong.

Teratus.2859 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 As much as I enjoy the open world beetle races I think they should also create instanced competitive ones too. I think a combination of Beetle Racing with something like Sanctum Sprint would be amazing fun. Instanced competitive racing would help diminish performance issues. Offensive Skills to interupt and slow down other players. Crazy new racing tracks that can go anywhere without disrupting any open world content. (think tracks floating in the sky or around a cliff and with giant leaps and jumps you have to land etc) Seriously they could just go nuts with this kind of thing and it would be so much fun ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not being hyperbolicm it was completely abandoned. Of course people don't care. They want to have real race tracks with proper rewards and not these improvised OW "challenge parkours".

Abraxxus.8971 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Or just add the beetle race daily back to the dailies list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
