NASCAR HEAT 5 - Wish List?

This game is border line awful. I'm not sure if this is a wish list or a list of demands that need to be completed to make it even playable. I'm a huge NASCAR fan, I worked in the auto racing industry for some time. I have always passed on these games but with Corona figured I'd give it a try. I should have just spent 70 bucks at the local firework stand. Here we go..

1. Car Adjustments - The little that you can do make little impact on the car.
2. The game freezes constantly, and the graphics look straight out of 2009.
3. Paint booth? Really? How many years ago was there a 100% custom booth option? If we can't upload logos (like NBA2K) or get complete custom options at least give us more paint schemes and a custom color pallet. Won't even get into the fact that the wheels and spoiler colors default to Neon during the race.
4. Career mode is completely lacking. Look at The Show, NBA 2K, even Madden.
5. Complete lack of statistics and replay is lacking
6. Car control is off, no matter the set up it feels like the car is pushing.
7. Was impossible to win on the dirt, but I won the Xfinity and Cup titles in my first season?????
8. Lack of alternative paint schemes (Harvick you can add the beer logo WOWWWW!)

Overall the game was a fun distraction for a night, and I'm glad my kids like it (although having the Skittles Car or PPG Car would make them happier) but this was a complete waste of money. I can't believe in 2020 a game with this lack of depth and quality even finds it's way to the market. Thank goodness Madden comes out soon. It will be a long time before I buy another console racing game. So much potential to make this a really great title hopefully a new developer will take over the reigns soon.
