Even tho there are a couple things that take the simulation out of this game already, this would top everything. Don't think it would be a good idea.

I agree. Maybe for spectating but not when you're actually racing.

Would it be possible to toggle the rider name on the bottom of the screen while watching a demo?

irrelevant to the discussion but most people flustering jlv for more realism in the game actually play it in 3rd person. Idk if it's just me but I find that pretty hilarious

That doesn't even make sense, who fucking cares where your camera is, that doesn't change the game whatsoever, only how you are playing it. That's basically the same thing as saying you aren't really experiencing the game because you use a keyboard, when in reality, yes, they are you autist, just doing it slightly differently from how you play it.

It's like saying you have a dark red balloon but it's not actually red because it's fucking dark red.

You guys act like if you don't play 3rd you aren't good and don't know what's best for sim, look at kellen, (i know, "start your systems fanboy 10 yr old idiot over here") kellen seems to be pretty fucking smart when it comes to this game sooo.. don't talk shit about us 3rd person players, there is no difference, just preference

talk about getting tilted my man, I think you were a little quick to pull the trigger. I never said there is anything wrong with playing 3rd in actual fact like 90% of people I come across and get to know play 3rd. Sure its whatever tickles your taste. I was merely suggesting that for some people that are adament in making the game as realistic as possible, that instead of asking for added realism like pitboards,engine sounds, tire pressure and all that other stuff you just give 1st person a try. I mean that would be the first step to added realism would it not?

The answer to this debate is simple. Floating text in a 3D space looks retarded, and playing a game in third person does not.
This is a block of text that can be added to posts you make. There is a 255 character limit.

ok yeah i may have over reacted a bit, but i'm also sure that most 3rd person players have already tried 1st and just can't do it or don't like it/it gives them straight headaches (like myself)

but yeah i overreacted because i thought you were one of those guys that thought 3rd person players were all morons who dont know anything, so once again, my bad lmao

If you play the game in 3rd you're only making it 10x harder for yourself. I'm not kidding when I say this, For me to run a clean lap without crashing on redbud in 3rd person I had to drop my laptime by 24 seconds and I was try harding like never before.
