As for the Quick Solo Race issue, how in the freaking hell is it that Area 51 and Rio de Janeiro STILL aren't selectable?! These tracks are not new anymore, but I'm honestly tired of not being able to normally play on these tracks. Same with Patagonia. It's not even a new track anymore. Could GL plan to give Quick Solo Race the Multiplayer League treatment and build it into something bigger and better that has ALL tracks? Or are they planning to make a fourth new track and add it along with A51, RdJ, and Patagonia to QSR?

The idea of Event/MP-exclusive tracks is not a good idea in the first place. Why make all Area 51, Rio de Janeiro, and Patagonia tracks exclusive to only MP and Events when you can have their Event/MP-exclusive versions be slightly altered versions (e.g. Area 51 with aliens, Ipanema Showdown/Rapido Park in sunset, Oceanview Derby/Highland View during the day, Sector 8 Hard Mode, Alps Reverse during the day, etc.)?

Also, another issue: MOST new cars lack decals of ANY kind. What good is the color customization/car paint feature if a lot of the new cars don't have decals? To be honest, I'm tired of seeing Vulcans, Fenyrs, 959s, etc. without liveries that can be applied to them. Looks too generic.

Speaking of decals, the Torq and Corvette GS have only token-purchasable decals, as did the Supra. How would anyone want to spend their hard-earned tokens on a single Soaring Eagle decal for the Corvette GS?! At this point, nothing will surprise me if a decal that costs is added.

A8 is really digging its own grave. I won't be surprised if the same faults appear in A9, which won't really come out this year, as SilentLoft has not provided any new information about A9 since March 2016.

As for the fallout of the situation between Take Two and GTA 5 modders, Rockstar turned the tide in favor of the modders and Rockstar themselves. Unfortunately, my laptop can't run GTA 5 even on the lowest settings so I'm stuck with my iPad mini having GTA SA.
