So when I heard about this I was so excited and happy couldn't wait to get a new speak sparrow and start to race. I planned on buying some of the emotes and sparrows and sink hours into racing. I logged on first and checked around the tower to see the new layout and I have to say it looks nice. The mechanics and broken sparrows around Holidays area add a nice feeling of activity. I checked Eververse to see her stock and was a little disappointed that I could not buy the sparrow I liked but I should have expected that. Instead I took a gamble on 2 horn toolkits to try get the Lightrunner and failed. The real disappointment was the race book. I thought that was going to be free and help us log our times and enable us to get higher rated gear. The fact it is so expensive is a big negative and the gear it gives is useless, so don't buy it and instead just race and rank up for the free rewards. The racing itself is good but at times sloppy. Many times my sparrow just mishandles when I am leading for no reason other than to mess me up and drop me to 6th. While other times I am hitting every gate and cannot gain enough speed to catch the leader. I am not sure if the gear makes a difference during racing. The tracks are good but there is just no options yet. We need more tracks but we need variety in them tracks also. I say this because the gates are predictable, I would rather have the gates the way they are on lap 1 then change location/layout on lap 2 and for lap 3 they move slightly left and right. This make the track unpredictable and more competitive. The enemies on the track seem pointless and never really deal damage. Allow there to be a shortcut but higher risk enemies can shoot you off your bike and actually make it possible. Make the ships shoot in a pattern that allows you to be hit directly or by splash damaged if you are too close. Make enemies a real danger to players. I have noticed several players never leave the finish line and get all the way to the rewards screen to get legendaries and shakers. This should be impossible and you should be kicked with 15 see ones of inactivity. Generally I like SRL but it needs some serious work to be a good mode. I hope it comes back and is in rotation with Iron Banner and Trails of Osiris. What is your opinion on SRL?
