Thumbs up

The missing alternate 4player mode in CMR3 is one of the biggest mistakes of this game. I hope it's back in CMR4.

Now a suggestion for the 4player alternate mode:

When you play the 4player alternate mode, player 1 is always the first one on the stage. So player 4 is in a advantage. Because he knows the times of the other players and he can watch the stage and so he knows the critical places on the stage. There should be a option “ starting order fixed (like in CMR2)or variable”.
Let me explain this variable option. On day 1 the starting order is player1,2,3 and 4. But on day 2 and day 3 the starting order should be after the intermediate result.

For example the result after day 1 :
Player 1 is on 6. position
Player 2 is on 2. position
Player 3 is on 4. position
Player 4 is on 1. position

Now the starting order for day 2 :
First – player 4 ( 1. position)
Second – player 2 ( 2. position)
Third – player 3 ( 4. position)
Fourth – player 1 ( 6. position)

When you play a championship in the 4player alternate mode the starting order for day 1 should be after the intermediate championship result.

For example the championship intermediate result :
Player 1 – 11 points and 8. position
Player 2 – 20 points and 4. position
Player 3 – 19 points and 5. position
Player 4 – 28 points and 2. position

Now the starting order for the next rally :
First – player 4 ( 2. position)
Second – player 2 ( 4. position)
Third – player 3 ( 5. position)
Fourth – player 1 ( 8. position)

I think such a variable starting order is more fair for all players. Of course this option should be also possible when you play only with 2 or 3 players.

Very good suggestion, Günter.

I sort of made a suggestion of alternate mode in an earlier thread on the CMR4-board:

hi im new and im just wondering...

The answer Zzzzzz had wasn't reassuring (hopefully a joke, but still). If Codemasters read your suggestions it shouldn't be possible to misunderstand.
