And I know some of you may be upset that I used the ghosting to pass a few people, but you got to admit, this was a slick move. 5th to 1st. ....Ok, I'm glad I'm not the only one that experienced this, this is the reason I've switched to controller for the beta.
That was not a "slick move" ... It was a total crap move .... One does not go from 5th to 1st, by barging through, where you've no place to pass

I can't believe so many people are pulling these stunts, ruining what the system is trying to do with the SR

The Beta testers should be 'teaching' the SR system, to make good, clean races for the rest of us,
... instead, you're teaching it that you don't give a crap, and when somebody wrongs you on track, you then "teach them a lesson"

You are wondering why you dropped from C to D, and all those "terrible drivers" ... take a look at your paint job, buddy

Well I can tell you I only pulled that because of the stupid ghosting feature, if I was still in the C class, I definitely would not have even tried that.

The system is broken and you just have to adapt to it.

Well, please don't do that stuff, ... this isn't personal, man, but you are totally ruining races for lots of people

You ruined two of mine, and cost us both SR

We don't have to make a list of bad drivers because the Driver Rating is make for that..
Even if i saw few really bad players use the non-ghost activation to push me and other players..
 
I understand, .... and I was more than half joking, but I wish people in here would carry the sense of community here, onto the race course with them, and understand that dirty driving is not appreciated, and poor sportsmen tend to get a reputation

I do not honestly believe that people should be on any list of the cursed 👍
 
@Grandea GTR I apologise for that chaos at the start of the blue moon bay race.

So I was at the very first of the grid and when the race started, I mashed full throttle and didn't realise doing that in an audi R8 will just cause me to spin out. Should have known how to throttle control.
 
I have to stand on it as well. It is fine in AC and Pro Cars. It's just a GT thing.

I have this issue also with the G29.. I just press harder on the brake pedal to compensate! but I fear after a week of it I will have a left leg calf muscle like a bodybuilder and a not so toned right calf :lol:

Yeah, I feel it almost unplayable...:banghead:

the G29 uses a potentiometer, not a load cell

if you plug the wheel and pedals into a PC, and run the software, you should be able to 'train' it to report 100% braking at the pressure you prefer .... then going back to the PS4 and GTS, see if it feels like the calibration feels better

Thanks, I'll try to do it. In any case can't be worst than now. :D

Ok, I'm glad I'm not the only one that experienced this, this is the reason I've switched to controller for the beta.

I was thinking to open a bug report on the beta forum. :confused:
 
Should be a rolling start honestly.

Just launch the car with TCS and then remove it on the fly.

I've done my first two times at Blue Moon Bay so my apologies to anyone that seen me draft bumping myself into walls. Since most are turning sharp, the draft loss really upsets the 4C if I'm turning wide.

And of course, driving too close to the walls on pad. :~
 
Can you guys help me how to access the private beta forums? I open a link from the e-mail, log in when prompted and after I hit log in website goes white and nothing is shown. I can't refresh the site.. nothing

I did the exact same thing too with the Ferrari. I was in P1 at the start race, but since I really never launched it before without TCS. I just spun it out. Now, I use TCS on launch, then I'll turn it off.
 
BRANDS HAAAATCH!!! :indiff:

Man, today was total carnage. SR didn't go down a minute though. Guess Poly is allowing heavy contact there.
Even trying to hold down I ended up spinning, or sending to the sand and grass, or spinning and grass, some poor souls.

I agree, I know I was sliding on the first turn, not on purpose though
Some people were blocking though
 
Welp, I had such a "good" day today. Missed a shot of winning at one of the races at Brands Hatch GP by getting stuck in sand traps, getting punted off by a wrecked car in Blue Moon Bay and I get disqualified, only to get demoted from low C class DR to all the way to mid D Class in DR. Then I had to try and race at Brands Hatch Indy in my only N300 car, a Megane, and starting in LAST PLACE.


I did not have a good time at all. Only positive thing is that I gained one SR.


(Well to be honest I kind of drove like an honest 🤬 the past few days, but this is just a whole other level).
