NASCAR 25 Should Have These 5 IMPORTANT Features!

[@Weplayvideogames-hd9ne]

For me I need manual pacing, manual pitting, ai causing big ones/wrecks, ai blowovers, multi grove racing, ai making mistakes like pushing u bad, wheel compatible

[@coopershank2066]

Race online for bad pushes but realistic AI crashes would be beautiful

[@Weplayvideogames-hd9ne]

@ yes even blowovers, especially if u are behind an ai car, u see smoke, then u push the ai car infront sideways, he spins, the u look ahead and see an ai car just flipping, and your reaction would probably be WTF just happened

[@bighobbs]

@@Weplayvideogames-hd9ne i completely agree with u bro that all would make an awesome game

[@Weplayvideogames-hd9ne]

@ yeah it would also be a good jumpscare

[@jabroracing]

We don’t need manual pacing for a simcade. If ya want that then get iracing.

[@whodey4life292]

In race replays of cautions. A feature gone for wayyyy too long

[@hilkey_09]

Was gonna say that

[@BraydenBunch58]

I would want a really good paint booth with a wide about of sponsors, And an in-depth career mode (It’d be cool, But they don’t have to)

[@humbertoybrgaming4911]

They should make driver transfers/retirements in career mode as well as making them realistic

[@Averageracingfan]

f1 can do it why not nascar?

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@alexfeezell]

This is literally all I want

[@DrTensley]

Exactly. The reason I couldn't do the nascar heat 5 career mode it's not immersive

[@ImClxtch30-_-]

Real like it woulda been cool in nascar 21 but the game sucked and plus only certain drivers retired or stuff

[@justcody6068]

Top 20 features that should be in nascar 25 1. Career 2. Championship 3. Test session 4. Penalties for ai drivers 5. Actual dnfs (say if ai Kyle Larson plows the wall he won’t come back) 6. Nascar draft option (only for Superspeedways) fun fact try nascar heat 5 talladega with gen 6 and lowest draft it’s fun. 7. Custom paint scheme 8. Custom drivers 9. Custom career 10. Number of laps not by percents 11. Time of day example day/sunset/night. 12. You can own your own team and hire drivers. 13. Career mode own a team and you can have unlimited options for team customization. 14. Preferable lines to take in practice and qualifying 15. Teams can fire you in career mode 16. Ban players for being dirty for no reason 17. You can rarely lose sponsors 18. You can retire in career mode 19. Ai can retire and be replaced. 20. You dnf from the race and you can watch the rest of the race.

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ai crashes

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya that they need to add that like f1 multiplayer races

[@marginoferrortheory]

dude i would love to be able to just watch ai racing on their own that'd be my dream come true

[@andrea7158]

I think nr2003 has the last future. The one about watching the race after you dnf.

[@martyhensley2169]

I really hope they put in the spectator mode because that is how most of the leagues have their races Broadcasted and commentated

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@DuddleBug5]

Allowing 43 cars in races and fantasy tracks even if its just iRacing Superspeedway to start

[@revrasheemstewart]

How about an option for which points system that you want for season and career modes 😊

[@sabastianmoore6160]

I hope they take this into serious consideration. Because I already have a points system in mind that combines the past and the present

[@revrasheemstewart]

@sabastianmoore6160 what do you have in mind?

[@thicccheese4007]

Current points format but no playoffs or chase.

[@truckercowboyed2638]

​@@thicccheese4007then it won't work...the current format is designed for the playoffs

[@DrTensley]

​@truckercowboyed2638 not necessarily, could keep stage races and top 10 get the points and the winner of the stage gets a bonus point instead of a playoff pont

[@randomstuff-id8bs]

i just want all 4 national touring series in the game cup xfinity trucks and arca

[@benwalter4842]

Replays of cautious, rivals and allies system, post race recap highlights, actual realistic penalties/ crash damage (including different settings and engine or mechanical failures), different available strategies, good AI, proper physics, different weather conditions/time settings, being able to sign with different teams/create your new own team, being able to get new sponsors and paint schemes, and most of all, no major glitches.

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

And interviews

[@Dennyhamlin23XI]

The ability to change left side tires only idk why in NASCAR heat you could only change right sides only

[@Mr.X2188]

I always thought that was weird.

[@Dennyhamlin23XI]

@@Mr.X2188right it was

[@thicccheese4007]

Because they were too lazy or just didn’t know how to animate the crew starting with the left side tires

[@truckercowboyed2638]

Because typically that's not a thing in real nascar that always change rights only because that's the tites wearing the most due to the setups and racing off the front right or rear to get through the corner

[@Simracingisgoated]

Rights side tires wear quicker

[@jamesmaas3928]

Would be kinda cool if as an owner you could watch a sim race and be able to switch different camera angles while watching the race.

[@RUSH240]

For me the biggest thing is the career mode, I don’t even need arca just asking for trucks and xfinity so you can work your way up, realistic career mode and own a team also😊

[@carsfan5racing]

As long as they don’t add a wins-races ratio like the NASCAR Heat games, I’ll be happy. That one is a personal one though, because it always felt like “here’s how many times you won, and then you’ve also sucked a couple other times”

[@truckercowboyed2638]

Well then get better at winning then you won't have to worry about sucking.....

[@carsfan5racing]

Hey I’m just saying some people aren’t great at playing the game even with low difficulty. You think Michael Waltrip liked being reminded of his 0-462 losing streak?

[@NASCAR2K1]

I hope Trucks, ARCA, Late Model Stocks, Pro Late Models and Super Late Models are in the game since Xfinity is confirmed.

[@Brantleypop]

I wouldn't hold my breath on the late models, but trucks and ARCA hopefully are

[@thicccheese4007]

That’s a lot of things to ask for in their first game. Just stick to nr2003 for all that

[@awesomeeli8251]

I think Truck might be confirmed if Xfinity is already confirmed. Idk about the other series

[@gostclutch1573]

Idk, I just hope they don’t just give us a nock off WOO late model series and call it a day

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@0kayDonn]

Ngl I want this for career mode: If you own a team you can run a 1-4 car team and you can choose to race for your team or not If you choose to just hire drivers you can just watch them race or sim the races When you hire drivers for example: if i hired a 1 star racer the racer would probably be finishing last or always bad in the race, if u hire a 3 star racer some races the racer can be good or bad or average and if you hire a 5 star racer they would be championship contenders always having acceptable finishes Also customizing the drivers you hire make them male or female, adjust height, skin color etc. Btw the higher the racer rating the more expensive they are to be hired.

[@Gigiiluvsyouu]

I do like this idea quite a lot, having the ability to hire drivers and have them race for you would be fun or if you want to race with your own team that’s always an option.

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@Dennyhamlin23XI]

Manually come down pit road

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@ThatNascarGuy]

Bring back the old EA style of things where you could buy an existing race team and have cheat codes. Adds a level of fun that we haven’t had since nascar ‘09

[@rhubbard4346]

We need replays for cautions. It's crazy how long it's been since we've had that.

[@WildeNASCAR]

With the replay system, I would LOVE if we can save the replays and see the chaos that happened in the race or if we have bad memory, we can title the replay "Darlington Southern 500 RO16 Chaos" or something along the lines of that race, also, I can't stress this enough! EVERY DRIVER SHOULD HAVE A PLAYOFF BANNER AND PLAYOFF LOGOS, SO THAT WE KNOW WHO IS IN THE PLAYOFFS. Also, I want them too give a indicator/tracker that NASCAR uses so that way we know who is where and what the eliminations will look like when head into the playoffs. Also, if we get to create a team, please let us CREATE team NAMES and create a LOGO, that would make it so much more fun for the single players and even racing leagues. I wish I can talk to this about someone on a podcast or something

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@mattcolson9813]

Hey, Radman! Hope life is going well and stuff is getting better since the 'State of the Channel' video. Hang in there, man. The vids are killer. ❤

[@MichaelKelly-on9ts]

Still don't know why they haven't added rain shortened races and more normal mechanical failures into these games

[@TheCurryGamer]

Auto driver changes would be nice and I like the scheme workshop idea

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@hmsfan9]

I disagree you can have 40 car fields that's how we troll random pub lobbies man

[@commandercody8786]

Dude you’re a sigma for that what a dirty dog

[@patmanbnl]

One thing I want and it makes me go back to older Papyrus games (NASCAR 3, NASCAR Legends) is the ability to have mid race saves. Makes it much easier to do a longer race.

[@cubfanbudman8878]

A paint booth similar to Inside Line/‘14/‘15 where you can make your own custom decals such as sponsors and numbers.

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya for your team

[@awesomeeli8251]

What I hope Nascar 25 can have that 21 Ignition doesn't have 1. Caution Replays 2. Custom Setups 3. Working Ai 4. Track Map 5. Career Mode (Like the NT Games)

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@Blaneybest]

I want a progressive career mode. For example, a easy requirement for the player in Xfinity to get a back marker cup ride. Medium requirement for a mid pack ride. And very hard requirement for a top tier Cup ride.

[@BIGG-CEE27]

Legend drivers and possibly old gen cars

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@YoItzBANz]

Some nascar game should add a flagman feature where you can just watch the race if u want while being the flag man, i wish they had commentary as well

[@iLikePlanez]

I want a realistic blowover model, Good paint booth like nascar 09 or 15, Realistic physics, like NR2003, A reputation system like nascar 09, Custom team making, Lots of sponsors, Maybe some fantasy drivers and cars. Like in the nascar thunder series. But no 3 digit numbers

[@Jblach51]

In career mode, it would be nice to have tons of sponsors to choose from depending on your skill level. I would also like to see AI drivers progress as well unlike old NASCAR games when rookie drivers were always rookie drivers and also xfin and truck drivers getting promoted. Also, having drivers retire so their rides become available and also drivers getting fired and moving teams, maybe even going back down to Xfin or Truck series.

[@bighobbs]

i want all tracks, all the series, all the schemes, all the drivers, and the game to work realistically

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya and the crashes too to be realistic with the ai

[@Angus316]

For career mode i want: 1. To have the Clash, Twin Duels, and the All Star Race be a part of the game 2. To choose what race schedule you want to do per season, as in you can choose to do a Part time (6,12,18,24 races per season) or do a full Season. 3. The possibility of having a 2nd or 3rd car on your custom team, choosing your teamates, car number, sponsors etc.

[@landinlucente2442]

I think a good benchmark would be a step up for the current World of Outlaws games, made by the same people but with more development time, I wouldn’t expect anything too far from that

[@AlexJeezyDaSnowmanRappa07]

Here’s what I want The SuperSpeedway Racing to be like a real SuperSpeedway not only that how about fantasy tracks No bugs in the game No online career Custom season 4 national nascar series Old tracks Old cars Multi groove racing in any race tracks Caution Replays Paint Booth Real network announcers before the race during the race & after the race even it might not happen but that’s what I want Silly season Legends

[@leseanhorton]

It would be cool if u win a championship u can get a personal message and or follow from ur favorite driver

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@wildywilly1119]

Live updates points for the playoffs like cut off line and stuff

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@JGeller1989]

Huge ask here, but I want one of these 2 options: Manual and Auto mode. Manual mode is, I 100% control my car, during cautions, pit road, pace laps, everything. The Papyrus games did this, and I loved it. Auto mode will work pretty much the same as the Heat games where they Sim it all. That would be awesome for me atleast.

[@ryanfagan33]

I'd like to see a career mode with things to spend your money from racing on. In-depth paint booth. All three series back and maybe drop dirt racing. Let us drive down pit road ourselves as it would be great to try and race out pits would add strategy to placement. Robust online options for leagues and league control.

[@spinningourgears2171]

One thing they are going to have to work hard on (unfairly) is to make sure all bugs and glitches are out at launch. Every game typically gets released with bugs and needs patches but with the recent history of NASCAR games, if the community sees glitches or bugs on release they will be more likely to give up on the game quickly.

[@kennyb1472]

I wanna have the ability to use older car models. Like a 2008 DLC for example. Gen 4 bodies, COT bodies etc. Far fetched but it would help switch things up.

[@thicccheese4007]

NASCAR would definitely not allow this

[@WizardKingNick]

I can understand wanting to be able to make a team in career mode but I also like just taking over an existing car and feel like I'm driving for a real team. If anything for that just make it feel like I'm actually the one taking over that car.

[@codysmith5661]

It doesn’t have to be this year but just one time I’d like to be able to hire my own drivers and race with them.

[@just_delightful]

How's that case of side drip that you have going???

[@JimmyLios-i7w]

Racing in the rain.

[@andrewwaring3643]

VR would be an awesome addition down the road

[@jZ0357]

I could see theme showing off the game play around Daytona 500

[@blazn24warriors55]

We should be sharing our awesome ideas for Nascar 25 video game with iracinginc and asking them to be more transparent about the level of progress on Nascar 25 video game development , especially when we were burned by motorsport games. We need to speak up and make sure we get the Nascar game we deserve from iracing monster games

[@guntherdadson5046]

im completely fine with biyearly as long as they update the roster and skins the following year. do the online stuff like the old nascar games, public mode, private races or leagues. i say max of 24 people online. gives you plenty of room for good leagues and keeps the servers not out of wack. paint booth sure, id say similar to iracing and stuff that you can download community paint schemes and same with the setups. career mode id say sure to owning your own team, but i remember the older games you could own your own team while also driving for one of the regular teams but only if they wanted to sponsor you, like NASCAR 05.

[@SHAKENBAKE-sh6kn]

Realistic damage model is my main #1 like If I hit the wall going 190 mph I shouldn't be able to finish the race lol, more ai caused wrecks., more mechanical issues And if they could add weather into gameplay, like a rainstorm just opens up at Daytona or wherever that would be sick

[@clemsonfan1099]

I’d like a co-op career like F1 I know it won’t happen but it would be interesting fighting your friends for sponsorship and opportunities to get better rides the only restrictions would be you’d only could do it in cup

[@brom1491]

Also if you have a career mode, they should let you race lower series as a part time driver while u driver cup full-time

[@Clashwithcodeman]

Would love offseason free agents for starting own multiple car team

[@mr.hellomynameis57]

Driver transfers and money meaning something if it only has a driver career mode. And simple things like the name changing on the car if it’s a driver career mode

[@FACTSyoudidntknow2024]

Does anyone here anticipate some sort of live service/ actual game changing updates? Like iracing does like 4 seasons a year that tweaks features, polishes it?

[@forzaf1gtaracingandmore824]

There’s no excuse for them not having features that were in NASCAR 15 a decade ago

[@emmanuelsantiago6641]

Next fall I think I’m just gonna superglue myself to my Xbox. GTA 6 and NASCAR 25. It’s gonna be a great year

[@Withered2nd]

@iRacingOfficial needs to see this video, would make a big difference in my opinion.

[@iamty1er_]

Might be too much to ask, but in career mode can we have inspection? Just for fun! Or even…fines. If you do something illegal to your car, or off track you have to pay out of pocket your fine.

[@Coasterguy7764]

What about series?

[@Brett_Baker_]

I would still count NASCAR Rivals as the last licensed game to be released even though it was a switch exclusive

[@dobbyslobby1092]

For career mode they need to make fake sponsors like other games have/used to have. Seems like it’d be easier that way than having them to worry about pissing off real life sponsors/manufacturers.

[@AzulFlightCo.]

Jet dryers and wreckers pulling cars to the campgrounds with a great music playlist

[@YoungestSonMedia]

Downloadable setups!!!!!! Bro that would change everything haha

[@Averageracingfan]

3:08 yes because ignition would use match making so no racing with friends no just free lobies to join

[@AshtonG2022]

I want something similar to the EA games where you could communicate with your Teammates and Crew Chief and Spotters

[@joshclark3834]

I really want the duals back and the all star race they should bring back

[@sebastiaanghielen3429]

Thé last thing I care about are online and setups. I prefer the cars come setup by the team and I can focus on racing. I simply want a proper career where I as a driver can drive for an official team. And throw in some challenges and classic stuff. Will be a 10:35 happy camper 😊

[@evankelsea3549]

A realistic damage model is what I hope it has.

[@juanatethejetdryer7580]

I want it to be compatible with Trading paints, that would be awesome!

[@ImTheMilkMan65]

I want to be able to upload my own schemes from my computer, and a few different custom scheme modes, like id say there should be one like the EA games, then one like the eutechnix games, then like nr2003 or I racing, also a 50 custom limit, I always find myself running out of schemes to design on Nascar games and I think 50 is a good limit

[@natureboygrant5348]

They don’t need to let people kick you out a lobby if you just want to race everybody. They do it for no reason on heat 5 I never get online anymore

[@NMracing9424]

6:35 steam workshop capabilities would be great also like f1 games,

[@loganpinner5212]

I see this a lot with motocross/supercross racing games. People talk about what the games HAS TO HAVE and when the game is released and it’s not what you thought it was gonna be in your head now your disappointed. When was the last time we got a good nascar game? Let’s not get our hopes up. Keep expectations low and if they go over the top, awesome.

[@bo_nix10]

They have a intemadte/ share draft the thing from nascar 2005 Chase for the cup

[@Staysick17]

I like racing full car fields if the lobby fills do it

[@TheAtomicBurrito81]

The game should launch in February.

[@ronaldallen9615]

Please bring split screen racing back!!

[@KidLatin27]

Real life interview Have you're driver in career mode talk Create your own cellabrring Pick whatever team you want to drive for in the cup or Xfinity series.😊

[@godsgreatestgift1997]

Silly season where alex bowman could end up at Gibs or something

[@DaCheWookie]

Is it just me or could we also ask for a Rear View mirror cause I was seriously pissed off when we didn't have that lol 🤣

[@garylee8171]

Screw trolling online and done to death career modes. Just 1. Really, really, really good oval ai with a custom championship mode and then after that worry about all the goofy stuff.

[@NASCARNic-yh4xw]

let me explore the inside of the tracks, i know its lame but man, i always get bummed when theres a barrier or an invisible one. i would love to just explore

[@EverythingEdits.20]

And Arca would be awesome

[@timmay2k]

1. Iracing AI 2. DNFs 3. 5-6 secon pit stops not 12-18 4. Track map 5. Tire wear

[@pazwafles1479]

Let’s get a paint booth

[@RamseyEditz]

I think we need realistic damage now I know that it would be tough but I want to a car get damaged when I hit the wall at 80 miles an hour

[@shadowguy20004]

If your on Nintendo Switch the NASCAR delisting event has started…. Can somebody reach out to Motorsport games and ask why the Rivals DLC is gone!?

[@beastballer9740]

I want a Simulator mode for career. Since the game is being made by iRacing I think this is very possible. Having a simulator mode with a wheel and pedals for console would be great. Do you think this will happen? RealRadman

[@hilkey_09]

Ai crashes, caution replays, flips and realsisyic damage model, ai making mistakes ( like running out of fuel ) flat tires, big ones, penalties, manuel pitstops, commentary and running line of the drivers in order, silly season including retiring, trades, make it to where someone can make you crash and dnf or you make someone dnf

[@ZKendall88]

I would like a better leaderboard, but otherwise I am down for what you said

[@GodWarrior-l4u]

I hope you can go live.

[@unicornvenom420]

If they ripped the game of F1 to NASCAR (in terms of career mode) I wouldn’t be upset, just being flat out honest. I just want to have races feel like genuine events. Pre race ceremonies, hell - possibly even driver picks before the race Multi groove racing at the tracks that actually provide those lanes. A genuine pack and or freight train (for longer races) at restrict or plate tracks - which comes with the AI actually taking each other out in accidents. I hate that most of the time they’re the best driver to ever exist without ever faltering in the line the drive over the entire course of the race. LET ME CONTROL MY CAR PUT OF THE PITS FOR PACE AND CAUTION LAPS IF SHOULDNT BE THAT GODDAMN HARD IF EVEN EA CAN DO IT. The ability to have a custom seasons in which you can invite friends to - Random doesn’t need it but be thankful as ever for it Rival Challenges Older tracks/non existent tracks for custom seasons or free play/multiplayer - With the ability to take all series to those tracks outside of career (unless they do implement the F1 career and you can make your own career schedule 👀) Time trial challenges (unlock throwback schemes or cars but that’s a longer shot) attributing to the next gen car of the drivers time you beat. Say you somehow beat the hardest challenge of Bill Elliot’s Talladega time, you’d then be able to obtain the livery of his car for the next gen in free play/custom, multiplayer, or career. The ability to interact with fans like in the older games, help build or destroy reputation depending on what kind of driver you want to be to the fans. The one who signs autographs or the one who just doesn’t care they’re there. Could be a short little game mode itself before the race - “Sign as many autographs as you can before the race starts!” And you have like a minute to actually do it and the setting is different depending on track. Then again I’m just spitballing a detailed game that I know fans of any form of racing wouldn’t get tired of

[@Theonetruedarklord]

Ranked multiplayer? Like gran Turismo or Iracing

[@DominicApps]

I want ai that actually race each other and cause wrecks with each other and also the ability to toggle that. As well as people getting hot and cold during seasons like one guy can be suddenly good for 3 weeks then fall off. Instead of these 5 guys always run top 5 these 5 guys always run 15-20 and these 5 guys always run 30th

[@High-Side-Broadcasting]

I don’t care how good the game is, if it is not league race able the game will not last. Needs to appeal to online league racers.

[@rproxide977]

If it’s behind schedule, THEN TELL US AS SOON AS PR FIND OUT, I’m tired of games being rushed and pushed out before they are ready and the basically be a live test to see if it works. Look at 90% of modern games at release. Just please make a full game

[@ethanmitchell5626]

Cant wait till norc is back radioactive tcb can I get a good old nascar 25 yeeeeeeehawwwww

[@Averageracingfan]

Id rather them just bi-yearly and add a free expansion pack
