That pretty much sounds doable on my end. Anyone else?
 
I would suggest an hour later: 10.PM EST (9.00 is putting-kids-to-bed-time for me :crazy:). I would assume later would be better for any NTSC players West of EST too.

Is there going to be a first race (Bahrain) this Sunday?
 
I'll go with whatever the Majority wants(granted RL doesn't get in the way at that time).
 
I can do 10pm eastern for the NTSC group. I used to race in a Forza league at that time, but we have since disbanded since all the holiday releases.
 
Is there a place for 2 drivers, yet?
Benoni2 and i are willing to race at NTSC tournament.
What do we need to give you (infos)?

I did not understand "TEAM LOTUS" as i don´t have it on a Online option!
Can you explain to us?

Also... what about driving aids? All off? All on?

Well... that´s it for now! Time to practice Bahrain!

cheers
 
Hey everybody. Count me in for this Sunday. The first page showed that we currently have 6 in the NTSC category. I'm willing to run a single man team, if I can't find a teammate. It looked like team lotus was open. I'll join that team, if that's alright.

The teams are just for here, it's nothing to do with the teams in F1:CE. I introduced it because it makes it more interesting to race as teams rather than just alone. Online in F1:CE restricts each driver to one team and all the teams have equal stats online with no options for setups, so here we are with our own teams.
Driving aids are up to you, no restrictions. Most people around here have a lot of them off though, so be warned, you might be at a disadvantage if you do use them.

I've added you both for Williams, is that ok? You can re-name if the team if you want.

Yup, thats fine 👍
 
Great to see so many new F1:CE faces here :) the NTSC championship only have one more seat!

Why don't you list yourself for a team Ardius?

Then I think our Jaguar team should be Shaguar. :cool:

Also I apologize to my teammate in advance. I'm not terrible, but think of me as Perry McCarthy. I can turn some fast laps, but I have a tendency to overcook it a bit. :dunce:
 
This is getting more and more exiting, I can't wait to race all of you (in PAL), although isn't anyone going to join Jaguar with me? Lol, but yeah CAN'T WAIT!

I explained in the post after the starting post. I can't guarantee that I can make it to host and race in every race if at all, so I've offered to organise this for someone else to host the races. I will jump in and drive for any team that needs me when I can but otherwise I won't be appearing.
Feel like joining?

Your wish is my command. :)

I'll team with Lofasz...

if he'll have me! :nervous:

Ok, that fills up the NTSC grid!

I will if I can make it. 👍

I still need someone to host the races for me in PAL....anyone going to volunteer?
 
Races will be set up on a channel with a name & password to be PM'd to drivers prior to race.As far as cars it does'nt matter there all equal online. But you can go ahead & set up your car preferances online on options.
 
Dubbers , we , me , you , somebody , needs to get with (ANFD) and try get get the list of the rooms that have a history of bad servers that cause lags , disconnects , etc , remember this list ? I think there was about 4 of them if memory serves me right.

Would you mind looking in to that,im sure Suede has that info somewhere.
 
Ardius:

Two thoughts came to mind about F1CE racing online,from my experience.

About the pitstops , some tracks you can stetch it out to only making 1 stop in a 20 lap event , other tracks you will be forced to make 2 stops. Are the rules mandatory for 2 pits reguardless of track or just make what pits are only necessary and then just go racing ?

question 2 :

Turn 1 on first lap is and always has been a major league ******* (being nice)at certain tracks,people are always racing to clear for position while 99 % of the time there is a huge melee of cars just going everywhere from all the crashing , will penalties or bans be in effect , on how to handle this fiasco ? You could be perfectly innocent get rammed from behind , forcing you into another car , ie --- the chain effect , does everybody have to stop and wait for re-spawn from others , or just go reguardless of what happens in turn 1 ? Thoughts on this scenario please ?
 
I think the best way to avoid the turn 1 cluster 🤬, is if you make contact with car in frount of you,a 1 lap penalty will be imposed. Mayby then everyone will have the required caution. Cant win on first lap SO HAVE A LITTLE PATIENCE PLEASE.:)

Also should be Mandatory 2 pit stops. IMO

Thats fine (I think) LOL , BUT , as you already know , with all the AI cars , real drivers , you just cannot tell what the h*** is going on , you can't read any names to identify who is who , hence the cluster 🤬. and you have to take a 1 lap penaly for somebody elses wrong doing by punting you into another car, thats going to be a rough one to swallow , I really don't know what or how to remedy the turn 1 mishaps to be honest.Not a bad thought Daddy

Anybody else want to pitch in a few solutions or ideas so this can be discussed , so we know how to handle this situation, because it is a bad one. :ouch:
 
Dunno if you can get a full grid of real drivers(22) to race on F1:CE online. I think that would make it somewhat easier that counting on the AI to not screw things up entering Turn 1.

Also, would it be possible to put the PSN names by the drivers on the roster for easy reference?
 
I'm not keen on the whole collisions anyway.

Any race I've ever done online with collisions, someone's just punted me off the track, you then get a penalty for being punted off the track.

It's a disaster zone usually.

My situation is much like yours. I'd love to join a race or two if I can but don't want to commit to anything. I'm currently and for quite some time ahead busying myself with my career mode in this game.

The AI can't hit you, they ghost.

I'd love to do this, but don't have the time to say 'yeah i'll definitely be able to', so i'll have to pass.
 
Hey guys, just an idea i had for your T1 worries. what if all drivers are to hold their starting positions, untill after T1. Maybe that will give a little more room at the start. JMO.
