Hey guys, as i am currently Racing in the AOR Ps4 league i am facing
week after week the issues and glitches of the F1 2017 netcode. As i
think it relies on the peer to peer matchmaking system it is important
to have a good connection for everyone and ideally the geographic
location should be close, but in a league racing environtment not
everything is given like that and facing those netcode problems is
pretty frustrating.
Multiplayer Stability is a big part for each game, but the server infrastructure etc can be very costly for a company and for codies such investment maybe is not really worth it, considering that F1 is not FIFA or COD. So maybe they could offer servers for leagues or persons with a monthly fee, because all league racers would agree that playing 3 or 4 Euros per month (per person) is really a good investment, if you get therefore a good netcode. With servers it would be also possible to increase the player count to 22 and 22 times 4 is fair bit of money, that codies could earn from this. Sprint Mode could be still in PeertoPeer basis, while everyone who wants to do a championchip can do this without facing issues like de-sync, ghosting etc.
Many sims offer this type of online play and imo codies should go forward with this
