Because they have a limitation in how the league is built and can't run more than 3 versions of the race at the same time. Don't remember all details but i have read that in one of the communication post some days/weeks ago.

So they have decided to choose a more hardcore way for player and have added SSF + HC instead of SOFT + SSF

What's the point in playing this game at all if not to have fun?

To be honest, this is one of the biggest cop-outs in all of gaming. People are complaining precisely because they find chasing an unobtainable and/or completely random reward not fun. The league being voided is understandable considering the huge amount of free loot it'd inject into the game, but to me not just this event but every event in this cycle has been a great example of GGG either not understanding or not caring to understand what makes racing rewarding anymore.

I find racing fun in and of itself and I will be participating in the Mayhem event, but to pretend people aren't allowed to be upset because "the point is to have fun" is frankly asinine. They had a complete seasonal structure in place with points you could earn that allowed casuals to work their way up gradually to a reward, and they dropped it in favour of very rare events with randomized rewards at level tiers.

The amount of non-care racing has received is astounding. I bought that the xbone port did not effect the main game for a little while, with the whole "you enjoyed these expansions, well we were developing it then!"... Except during those expansions, racing has been slipping so far off the radar that when we come back to it the top of the leaderboards in 1hrs are FIVE LEVELS lower than they were previously. The last proper season was NEARLY A YEAR AGO. Where is asynchronous racing, why can lab have it and we can't, yes i'm aware these events work off your league structure and is difficult to change, but you managed to PORT THE ENTIRE GAME that can't have been easy right? Why can't we have load time normalization, am I expected to buy an NVMe SSD for this game, hell why don't I just run a RAMdisk? Why is it so hard to make a season with some rewards people can work up to, are your artists so busy they can't make a couple of alt-arts? Hell let the bloody community submit alt-arts they're mostly just 2D art anyway.

You know what, you have a good point, what's the point in playing this game at all if not to have fun... Well, that's a really good question, considering to people that enjoy racing, we get to have fun on very specific times on very specific dates, that are MONTHS apart. Then when we ask what the hell has been going on to have not only no racing improvement, not only no racing events, but have GONE BACKWARDS and now do not have a point system or seasons but RANDOMIZED REWARDS - when we complain that the only people catered to are 0.1% top racers and that casuals have EVEN LESS incentive to race than they did in the seasonal days... We get palmed off with lines like your's. Give me a break.
