    I didn't know this game had Leonardo DiCaprio. That's some serious star power.

    Well, since every single race AND "skill" this week is on the list of most overused Summit events (save for the new one), kinda fitting to recycle the prizes too. Also, not everybody was around the first time, I guess.

    Have anyone actually tried to test this summit before releasing it? No? Though so.
    Nice job on reusing mood weather with wet roads in every event. Nice job creating another summit event with a bike on wet road.
    Whoever greenlit this mood weather/filter for west strip (Las Vegas) event must be blind because this combo creates the most "spectacular" ****show I've seen in this game so far.
    And dont forget that idiotic chase event. Seriosly, who's idea was to add a whole mode based on collisions and feature it for at least 4 months as the main attraction? The collision physics, both detection and velocity vector/force it gives to objects, in TC2 is **** tier.
    One could think that with this chase mode being so shallow and light on extra features (like special gadgets) you (IVT) would be able to polish the basics. But of course not. The mode you added is filled with bugs and it will become even worse with offroad disciplines that have a lot more physics problems on their own.
    Bugs in chase events arent limited to physics. You couldnt even make a proper respawn system for targets. They seem to have predetermined spawn points, destroying targets in some places makes new targets appear further away, and this obviosly affects results. Sometimes spawns can get bugged and you'll be left with only one target at a time, happens a lot in that latest chase event. Obviously with only one target spawning at a time results will be worse. But who cares about bugs like this, right? Its not like summits take players results into account... oh wait...

    I actually noticed this in the new chase event, with the round prop filler placed on the road (whatever they are called) i noticed one of the outlaw car crash into it which resulted in a new outlaw car respawning a lot later in front of me which i lost valuable seconds, to make matter worse even hitting an outlaw car at full speed sometimes nothing happens with barely any damage to the car which results in more seconds being wasted, i have noticed they are so many bugs with these chase events that its not even a joke anymore, i dont know how they missed this when play testing these new events before adding them to the update...

    If I could see anything with everything being blue I'd find it hilarious that the bots drive like on drugs and hit every wall available. But that's just me, I'm not invested anymore.

    Testers get the blame but I'm pretty sure they found and reported all this. The programmers just didn't do anything about it.

    Once again, the devil's (IVT) control of these motorflix events is only getting stronger. The devil (IVT) doesn't care what we (the veteran players) think. They just care about themselves and no-one else.

    This has got to stop.
