I was wondering, as the fia have recently changed f1's points system, if gpro will change the points system to the new one and when?
Should gpro change it, or would it make things too easy?
Please give your opinion.
Thanks

GPRO is not F1.
Tbh, we should keep the points system. Unlike the real FIA the GPRO FIA can be consistent. At least I hope that because the new system is something I dislike. :P

Even though it would be good for GPRO to have the same scoring system as F! I don't see it changing. I think it will stay the same unless a huge amount of the managers on GPRO would like the same new scoring system as F1.

It's about as likely to change as you are to search the forum before posting.

it is not necesary to be like Nascar but it needs to be changed becose only 8 places get points out of 40.

This is a bogus suggestion. Updating to the upcoming points system should be fair enough.

personally, i think they should change it, it would make things a bit more interesting in the amateur and above groups.

And they aren't interesting right now?

well, what i mean is that, after looking at most of the amateur and above groups, the people who get relegated are mostly without any points, but with more available points, it may make avoiding relegation a lot harder with more people getting points.

Why not trying this new system? Or why not organizing a gigantic poll to determine that?
Anyway I' confident in GPRO's team to determine what is the best for us.
:3)

I want it to stay how it is, in F1 and this game.

It's no because as pointed out by Tim on post #2 GPRO is not F1 even though we all use F1 cars GPRO is kept different from F1 and espeicaly Nascar in more ways than one

GPRO is unique now because it has its own scoring system :P No longer links to F1 at all :)

Yep it's not F1 it's a volleyball manager. This point system could be changed but it's not nessesary. Mayby some changes would be interesting.

or Ferr....Red Arrow
awarding points to all managers in a race would make the fight for survival more interesting. it puts a damper on the "big push"

GPRO may not be F1, but in the rules /GPRORules.asp it says...
1.5 Points system
We use the official Formula 1 point scoring system where managers in positions 1-8 get 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1 points respectively.
So either the current system remains and the wording in the rules must change, or it all gets changed here as well. Either way, I will still be playing. I am sure that the admin will figure out what is best for the continued growth of GPRO.

I have a feeling that the points system will start growing on me when there as been a few races.

It will be changed greg :)

As a new player I'd like to be able to get points @ the 10th place, but I like the current format because it forces average players to race better just to get one or two points. I've played another game that copied the new F1 changes and awful drivers get points, which isn't reflective of the real F1 (I know, I know, GPRO is not F1...).

A new scoring system seems overdue. Higher groups have 40 competitors, yet only 8 are awarded points. Can anyone name any other form of motorsport where this is also the case. In addition to this, the new F1 points system rewards successes more than simple consistency. Under the old system the difference between 1st and 2nd was equal to the difference between 2nd and 3rd. No massive incentives to go for the win. It would also make relegation more interesting strategy wise. In all likelihood, every manager will have achieved a point or two during the season, but knowing that potentially 10 of the guys below you could score decent points in the final race, you are less likely to find situations where managers settle for 1 points finish a season in order to avoid relegation as part of their long term plans. The groups will be more competitive and we'll see who the really good managers are more easily.

This isn't motorsport... it's an online game.

It would mean that statistics for most points scored will become meaningless to a certain extent, which would be a little annoying, and for that reason I don't think it will happen.

Late '80s in F1... oh wait, only 6 drivers scored points...
I personally hope that the point system won't be changed, otherwise people could just put super risks in 4-5 races and retire races that are left, and could still win the champ...

An online game that only rewards 20% of its players for their time and efforts. The game would be more interesting, and retain more new players, if their efforts got even the smallest of rewards. 1 point for 12th place against 25 points for 1st. The difference is greater than the current system, but it rewards effort and achievement. Promotion/Relegation would be so much more fascinating too. Maybe the more experienced guys on here won't like it because it ha effects on long term planning strategies, but these are the people that are most able to gain from it; they have shown that they are able to learn and adapt already.

That doesn't make sense. Everyone else will be in the same boat, so you couldn't win the championship with just 5 race wins.
