Seriously? No Race Scheduled for Today?

I can't help but LOL when I looked at the race schedule and saw nothing. Please take this fail of a season 3 and learn from it GGG, this has been a disaster.

Please someone come and rage with me :)

Considering it's my day off from work, I'm pretty disappointed there's no race. I'd have liked at least to run a 1-hour solo or something, since I don't typically get to participate.

Same kind of situation here. I honestly read tomorrow's race schedule for today. I clicked on the 10 am Descent race and it said it started in 1 days and 55 mins....I was like wtf?

>1 day without race
>'OMG THE WHOLE SEASON IS A DISASTER'

It could be because they're running the 1 week. I do agree though that this weeks calendar is rather lackluster. I mean, so what if others are busy in the 1 week? That just lets more people have a chance at some of the smaller events.

I don't even like large party events anyway.

My thoughts exactly. Don't make the shitty 1 week race our only option. I mean, over the last 4 days there has been what? Like 3 races?

No, I don't want to level to 50 in a week just to get 1 race point, that is insulting. The fact that said week race is the only real option is also pretty insulting.

There is no reason to stand behind GGG on this, unless you are a mindless little child on summer break that has not enough balls to give this game proper criticism.

I am betting 5 exalts that there will NEVER AGAIN be a race season this poorly planned.

I agree it's boring with no short races.

GGG did say in the race feedback section, that they do this to highlight the 1 week race.

I still wouldn't play it though, I hate super long races :D

This ^^^^^ - and it makes me wonder if GGG WANTS we casual gamers to have a chance to make up some ground while the streamers and pros are having it out in the one-week.

We 40-hour workers in the U.S. East time zone have had a tough go of it this go-round; I made it to 260-some points last season; I'll be lucky to make 100 this time. How did I do it? Jumped in plenty of races, rarely died and ground out the points. That strat is out the window this time; prime-time races are too few and far between.

Trying not to QQ here, but this season has really dimmed my enthusiasm for racing, and hopefully GGG takes the casual player into consideration for future seasons. This huge break in the action in favour of a single race is quite disheartening.
