Opinion: Eagle-R shouldn't be "Special"

[Celly]

That's all. Make it midsize or something, I don't think it's so powerful to the point where it should have a "special" classification and thus be relegated to "no rules" servers where people drive backwards and block the track with school buses.

I agree

oh yes i am with you no this on my server we have buses locked so no one can use the new car..the only time ppl can use the new car is when the server as a lot of group members in and no unknown players cos you will all ways get a late joiner or someone who changes at the last min to a buses and BOOM the hole lobby is a wreck on the start. line as most ppl come to my server to race only that is not good. maybe bug bear will change it idk.yesterday we had a really long and fun disscussion on the wreckfest discord and over all most agree the the new car is not a special COME ON BUG BEAR LET US USE PLEZ PLEZ

I also agree with this notion

100k for something you can't put armour onto or use it in a normal racing lobby.
Plus the ingame armour sets would of fitted in nicely with the Carmageddon theme.

Oh and I found a issue with the Eagle yesterday.
If the front end gets slight damage the collision spheres on the front stops you from steering left or right because the wheels are slightly lifted off the road surface.

I agree!

I would love to add slightly modify it like, for example, the Bandit Ripper V8.

Making it "Special" Basically kills it. 100k is quite expensive for something you could have trouble using online.

I really hope they change it...

okay good i'm not going crazy, it's actually miserable trying to turn and just going straight instead

Ya I would like to race the Eagle R on semi-clean servers. :)

I also experienced "No Steering after min contact" no fun.

Yup one of my BIGGEST dissapointments in this game is how limited are the "special" vehicles when it comes to customization, specially armor, that makes car to look way cooler on top of giving you armor. Thats why i avoid many special vehicles and unfortunately many tournament cars. For me, the visual aspect of the cars is one of the main attractions of this game. Sadly bugbear keeps making terrible decisions adding half-baked additions to the game instead of working on gameplay quality of life features, like as again, more customization options.

The classifying of of some vehicles in this game is nonsensical anyway, so it goes with the theme.

Apparently the purpose built Stock Car is considered Mid-size...

[Billy Van]

agreed!

[Poop Sock]

Fully agree that Eagle should not be a special vehicle. Great fun to race till a battle bus blasts ya in the first turn and you sit in the lobby.

[TrainswithNick]

I need another day to unlock the Eagle, maybe I shouldn't bother?
(Apart from the fact I have everything else in the game)

[cheiften98]

im pretty annoyed i just spent 100k on it and cant use it online. whats the point...
