Why am I still playing TrackMania then?

Oh, that's right

I think the single player needed because there is always a risk that the Internet goes down (especially here in Brazil, has bad service and very expensive). It was 5 days without internet, playing TrackMania unable to be connected.
The single player is also necessary because it is a time to help test the maps created and validated. It also helps those who are not friends with online server administrators.



Now with the slow internet, I took a long time trying to post this, since the translator took a long time to show the result, not have the patience to see if everything was ok.

Here's an idea. Might have been posted already, though.

A hybrid TM2/SM map where the racing track is built into the FPS map and vice versa. Track can go around the FPS area or through/over/under it and so on.

Trackmaniacs are racing and shootmaniacs are playing FPS; all that is happening simultaneously in the same hybrid map. Now, that would be entertainment
