rllercstr7 Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 I have an idea for the next release of the race mod that would be a really great feature to have. In Burnout 3 when you play crash mode there is a short clip before the round starts where the camera pans over your route to give you an idea of where you are going. I think this same method would work very well in MTA if each player got a quick runthrough clip of the route of the upcomming race so they have some idea of what to expect and where to go. What do you guys think of this?
l2ebel Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 would be pretty useful for races you dont know, on the other hand it would suck having to watch the previews everytime even if you know the track
rockstarrem Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 But then the guy that skips it.. what is he gonna do. But nice idea.
rllercstr7 Posted October 10, 2005 Author Posted October 10, 2005 I can see how this might get annoying if you have played the race sevral times. Maybe in the vote process there could be some option to request a preview. Also even if it were to play at the beging of every race it would only be like 30 seconds or so depending on the length of the route.
Subwoofer Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Don't want to see the track, waste of time, if you lose a couple of times you will get so frustrated you will know when to turn and shit... grtz
l2ebel Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Thats why you make a Skip feature. what does that help if you still have to wait for the other players to get done imo such a feature isnt worth the time, usually you know any race after you did it once (except Ransoms races :f)

{Static} Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Would be a nice feature to have, but I agree it could get too tedious after a while
Guest Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 the server administrator could have an option to have the preview or not. and maybe speed for that.. Or then there would be a topdown view of the race in the beginning of the race, (like in some loading screen) and a topdown map could be in some corner of the game screen, like in almost every racing game...
VCES>baby-g Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 How about like in CS:S for example, you have to wait for the round to finish before you can play. If you were shown the race route/the actual race while you are waiting
