Pd has fucked up this time. Tire wear is far too quick now. Seems like it would have been obvious to them if they tested these things first.
It really is amazing how they don't seem to try things first (the GT Academy time trials early on come to mind). With the new sound effects, I couldn't hear any of the chatter during a race, only engine noise, so I thought it was just me destroying the tires in the race. I was unaware of the change in tire modeling so I was a bit surprised when I started losing tire on the 2th lap last night. When the race ended, I had maybe 10% remaining on the rears and 15% on the fronts.
Not it looks like every race is going to have to factor in tire wear. As usual, well done, PD.
