Maybe each member of the pit crew is unlocked via loot boxes. Hopefully you don't get repeats or your car will end up with 6 tires.

I could do with a 5th as spare on the trunk, but I don't want the 6th on the backseat.

I believe he is joking at older Gran Turismo games.

Ok, fair enough.

And the video was probably done before GTS had the pit stop video?

Don't really care about this drama (the GT v Forza hatefest became old many years ago), but man the pit stops in those 20 year old games were actually really impressive.

I was impressed as well, and the car model was very good on the F355 or something like that.

Maybe not the future however i would pick a bigger car roster than a fancy pit crew. Maybe thats just my opinin.
After all rendering 700+ cars in a pit stop would take some time. Maybe in FM8.

The car is already rendered by the time the race starts. It's appearance in the pit stop is not a separate computing process.

But I agree I would take more cars over the pit stop crew if that was a choice. Though I don't see why it would have to be.

It isn't like someone would say "fanbase do you want us to expend 1 week doing the pit stop animation or do extra 500 cars in the same time?"

Invisible pit crew is the future.

Not invisible, fully automated. No humans, even invinsible.

Time and resources. So the Pit crew got bumped and the Forza team probably concentrated on something else. Either way, as these types of animation are great in the beginning as you play they usually just become tedious and you want to get own with the game. I would love for Turn 10 to talk about this point to see their perspective.

Well they could possibly recycle and it isn't like this animation would take much time at all. If you have to get to the pit anyway so having animation won't make it more tedious.
