FIX Blackwood - SIMOX - 2017-12-10 20:57

First - Close the Mainstreet completely. I'm tired of seeing people drive back and forth in a loop. A pre-update blackwood was actually better, i don't even know how is that possible.

Second - Remove all the Armco's at the junctions. They completely ruin the roads and kills your speed on corners to complete halt. Simply put - it's not fun to drive around on such roads. That may be the reason why a lot of people drive the main street.

And lastly it would be nice to get rid off 50kph at rally stage. (Or don't call it rally stage, duh.)

RE: FIX Blackwood - Some1 - 2017-12-10 21:15

Agree with 1st and 2nd, something has to be done to make Blackwood more enjoyable. As it is now it's one populated street with a track attached. Pretty indifferent when it comes to the last suggestion, don't see a major deal-breaker here.

RE: FIX Blackwood - Huski - 2017-12-10 22:34

All for closing main road for a while, not for rally stage however, not many maps are good for UF1 moneymaking so I don't see it as too problematic, as well the 50kph rally moneymaking road extends onto that small street outside of rallystage, we close that too?

RE: FIX Blackwood - Sky - 2017-12-11 03:45

I agree with removing those barriers at Junctions, Agree with sorting the main street divertion.
But the 50kph Rally Stage is not a problem, In Blackwood, the only way of gaining money by driving is Rally Stage with that small road other than COPing!
Maybe rename Rally Stage but not closing it

RE: FIX Blackwood - Bez - 2017-12-11 09:39

Closing a small section of mainstreet always worked as HwA. People actually drove on the other roads.

The antinoob barriers could be removed all together. If only the layouts could consist of lines and a few tires. A few barriers still need to be around for pit maneuvers and such.

RE: FIX Blackwood - Brixton - 2017-12-11 09:52

I agree with the point, that the industry lane is very overused while on other roads there are nearly no traffic.

I said this some weeks before: The Blackwood Layout would be better with some one way roads.Thumbup

RE: FIX Blackwood - Titan - 2017-12-11 11:27

am the same opinion as s1, as far as the last point I do not think that you have to do something there

RE: FIX Blackwood - Jacob - 2017-12-11 11:31

i agree with every point. Sadly Blackwood will stay boring even with these changes.

RE: FIX Blackwood - AOR Nova - 2017-12-11 16:36

Maybe the length of road from Junction 1 to the Junction 2 of Industry can be shut? So people will have to turn left/right to Lyon road etc. Not a diversion, but permanant. Will make the actual industrial area of BL more used.

RE: FIX Blackwood - BP - 2017-12-15 18:43

Given the result of the poll, we'll likely look to make some changes sometime in the future.

RE: FIX Blackwood - Pete - 2017-12-16 04:36

In my humble opinion, if people didn't want to drive in a loop, surely they wouldn't drive in a loop and would instead use the other roads?

Regardless of what we do to change the layouts (besides reducing the choice of drivable roads), people will still find some circular route that earns the most cash.

I'd be happy to see the barriers at junctions get removed, but the central objects would need to stay in certain places.

RE: FIX Blackwood - Adorable - 2017-12-16 12:35

The old right-side BL1 layout was much more fun, maybe we can roll back to that?

RE: FIX Blackwood - AOR Nova - 2017-12-16 13:57

@Adorable but it's LH drive tho... All the stop markings, kerbs, would be a little weird in reverse, no?

RE: FIX Blackwood - Iraqi - 2017-12-16 15:24

@Nova I think he meant the old bl1 track before the update

@Iraqi

How does this makeover look?

Gives cruisers now the chance to fully use the other roads on left/right (and possibly encourage usage of the industrial site further to the inside).

Definitely foresee more spread out traffic now, at least on 3 routes here.

RE: FIX Blackwood - Brixton - 2017-12-17 09:50

My Idea, sadly I have not the time and the skill to make it as an layout.

Indutry Lane: From junction to the Stunt area make it one way. Half the stunt zone (because there is another one near the spawn) and make there a hightway, maybe a stage over the ground (if there are enoug objects).

And then, thats very important, make on the east side of industry lane in one of the other roads a nice pit stop. A little bit like the autobahn pit stop on kyoto. Give positive incentives to go away from industry lane and drive threw the other lanes. Cause in the moment its mostly boring to drive there.

Maybe I try a layout later (not a good one, just for showing what I mean).

Hope it is understandable what I´ve written.

RE: FIX Blackwood - AOR Nova - 2017-12-17 10:19

@Brixton i have a personal external city layout on the storage yard that i'll finish up soon and let you have a peak. It has a whole new extension of the city with new handmade streets and highway.

RE: FIX Blackwood - Brixton - 2017-12-17 10:30

Sounds nice. So I will save my time and wait for your preview. W00t

RE: FIX Blackwood - AOR Nova - 2017-12-17 10:34

It's here already.

A month-long project.

New York/London style Smile Takes up half the Storage yard, with a exit to stunt zone.

Personal project, unless it comes to call.

RE: FIX Blackwood - Brixton - 2017-12-17 10:48

I think the buildings use to many objects, but I like it. On the half of storage yard (between industrial lane and rallye stage) this would be a nice conecction and maybe make the route to a circle instead of a simple loop.
