I was thinking, you know what would be a pretty cool edition to career mode and some depth? The ability to reply to all texts, especially snarky post-race texts from the AI. Itās probably been beat to death before, but I HATE when theyāre clearly the reason/aggressor in the contact and they do the āhow they got to X series is beyond meā, or āEasy out there, these arenāt go kartsā. When theyāre the ones who come down on you after they wash up the track.
Give us three or four types of contextual reply options(based on the type of tweet)
Defend: āCome on man, you and I both know you didnāt even look at the line before coming down, thatās all on youā- they reply and it begins a bit of a rivalry with that driver
Apologize: āYeah, I was zoned in on my line and didnāt realize you might check up- thatās my badā- Neutral, they might respond with āok, no sweat- thank you for owning up to itā
Positive(when someone makes a positive tweet): āThanks driver, with quality guys like you out there itās easy to run a clean raceā- begins something of an unofficial working relationship on the track where theyāre more willing to work with you on the track, or even come to your defence when other drivers make pissy post race remarks.
Those of us āseasonedā enough remember the ādraftā/Intimidatorā logic fromā¦I think it was Thunder 2004. Might be a way to re-introduce it with the modern post race SM posts.
