Can I share Footage & Stream on the EU Beta? I know we Signed that NDA But I'd rather not risk being Banned from it given that I wanted to be in the Beta for so long!

I'm pretty sure all my videos would have been taken down by now if they were actually enforcing that.


Plus I guess I'll play phantasy star online 2 tonight if the servers are messing up like that....
 
lol i was on your race

you are flying m8

We are on the same race again. Are you on a wheel?

I've gotten 🤬 over so many times today, I've called it quits. Why was I back into the D class?!?!?!? I was running mid-pack every race with the B and C class guys. These D class drivers are 🤬 terrible, no offense to any of you guys on here in the D class. I keep getting knocked off and shoved into the wall, that I won't be able to raise my rating back to C...
 
Have managed to get down to a 1.36.7 on Brands Hatch but have the sectors to do a .2 really struggling to put the full lap together! The SLS Group 4 seems pretty handy!

Pity about the focus st...

To be fair, you wrecked one of my races due to lag, then tried to bin me into the wall on the second race, so that may have to do with it. Mostly lag.

I may or may not have gotten bumped by you last race. You were lagging like crazy after you passed me so could have been that.

There was however one car near the back doing his best to hit everyone off the road.
 
I had an Impreza for my first car and got my first races in earlier. Myself and another Subaru ran away from the field. I was packed up for the first lap and came second.

Second race was great fun. Had raced a Mitsubishi and he made a mistake at the final corner each lap and I was faster in the Esses section. First lap, he made contact with me. Second lap, I wasn't close enough and the last lap, last corner, he made a mistake for my win.
 
Didn't manage to enter any races as the network collapsed each time unfortunately. Managed to run a 2.04 at Dragon Trail during qually though so that was pleasing.

Right there the lag lads lmao

I almost hit nascarfan after his second crash on the last turn :drool:

I managed only a 1:36.6XX with the 4C stock setup using DS4 with quite a few mistakes so I think if I can get a more tidy lap in then maybe get into 1:35's. I think if I had a wheel to use, probably could do times in 1:34's. Big unknown for me is how much one can improve from default setup.
 
Will do another stream tomorrow night see if I can come first again in the second race all the cars where wobbling all over the place except mine and it was putting me off a bit

i was also in a race with you ... either your driving or your lag is really really bad
 
I'm completely fine without even qualifying and starting dead last. Just avoid the typical spinouts, lagging and pileups and then watch the SR rise. Though I'm probably going to be demoted to 'E' class soon. Here's to E-100. Heh.
 
Meanwhile I'm just sitting here without a code.:grumpy: Will ANY Australian get a code for the Beta? Hello, we play your games too PD. I put my name down right at the start and I'm wondering if I should've bothered. Yet there's nothing to say that people from AUS/NZ won't be able to play the EU Beta. I know we are in the minority but surely that isn't enough of a reason to not send out codes... Come on man, I don't want to wait until the release date.
 
Racing on Brands Hatch is interesting. Since I don't get to race too often, due to being at work, when the events are live, except on weekends. Being in E class, is interesting, with people pushing and shoving. I'm too use to racing with events on here, like SNAIL, where we respect peoples position on tracks.

Did get to race on the the Nurburgring and from my point of view it was pretty clean. Just people ghosting through other people.

Good to hear about clean racing experiences, but if it requires constant ghosting then I don't see the point. There was a video a page or so ago where the leaders were continually ghosting through each other without care. That's not racing, it's hot lapping. I'm starting to feel that ghosting shouldn't occur if your DR is above 'E' or your SR is more than 50. Or you're completely sideways blocking the track or entering it after a crash, spin or going off.

Are you able to maintain your composure, keep your emotions in check? You know, since you've become accustomed to racing people who expect each other to compete with sportsmanship in mind.
 
I may say something at times, but by the time I get to the next turn. I'm already thinking how to get passed them. Pretty much I have to keep everything in check, when dealing with randoms, because it's out of my control.
 
Did six races yesterday got bumped badly at least in four of them. Not counting even dive bombs on the corner entry- hello Zlork ;)
