Damage will, though.
Surely its an option, "low damage", you can always set it up to "high damage" if you want it permanent until you enter the pits. Like in GT5/6
Have you ever played GT5/6? It was always like that.
What do you want exactly? In the final game there should be the crew of mechanics working and you pitting for tyres and all, for sure, as in the previous other two.
That's not a result of the no fault system though. iRacing has a similar system but don't have the same problem of fast drivers being dirty, at least nohwere near like it is in GTSport. It's all in how you weigh the data and how quickly your driver rating can rise and fall and having thresholds for entry into races that are actually meaningful. PD hasn't figured that part out yet. Surely you see the folly in asking them to ban people for a day because of a system that's deeply flawed?
Well, I dont see any other way of fixing damage whitin a race, other than pitting.
Well I have no idea if he received a penalty or even the one in front him. I just backed out of the race after I saw that awful penalty (no way I'm waiting there to let that clock run down lol). It was a crash at like 200 kph (was on the straight at Brandshatch Indy), so they went flying into the barrier. The first one should've gotten the 20 second penalty, not me or the guy in front of me. :/How hard the impact was? And did the driver in front of you received a penalty as well?
Either way, 20 sec penalty is insane.
Please don't tell me I did the wrong thing. Easy for you to judge but I would like to see how you would react if you had the same thing happen to you. Doing 5 clean laps (gaining 7 positions), seeing the first, second place right in front of you and then have it being taken away from you because some retard can't drive cleanly. To be clear, once i gotten back on track I was already second to last (with the added 20 second penalty on a track that takes +-50 seconds lol) so there was no point in racing any further.20 seconds?. This reminds me, I do hope there is some kind of tracking on % of races quit and that you can set up a threshold in your lobby. No offense but one of the most annoying things about racing online is people who quit races. You start out with a good size field and 5 laps later you have 5 people left running. It should be incentivized in some way to have people finish races.
Exactly i have noticed the same things. Kinda rage inducing tbh.
Of course, I meant permanent damage fixing.
I would do no different in a beta and probably in the full game as well, unless there were some incentive to finish the race or some penalty for not finishing. Quitting is an issue and I'd like to see it be dealt with in some way. I've played other games like the NHL series where you can put quit% in your search parameters when looking for matchmaking and I think it's a good idea for open lobbies. Would you rather have a lobby full of people who quite 0-5% of the time or a lobby full of people who quit from 0-50% of the time? There are a number of ways to incentivize/penalize this and I'd like to see them make some attempt at it.
Well we'd all like that wouldn't we?
I'm not in the beta but what I gather from what I read here is that the system is not doing what it's supposed to do, which is provide cleaner racing at the higher SR levels. Sure it works in lobbies full of drivers who are naturally clean racers but that works in any game. The system definitely needs tweaking.
20 seconds
They are going to close this beta after this or one more update and another one will start at August.
I really hope those who tested the beta to get something special.
I agree though
. They should maybe severly lower your DR if you rage quit 3 times and repeat that if it is a hard learner.
From PD:
PD has a thread where they are asking for recordings of unfair penalties so they can continue to adjust the system. There will always be a small percentage of gamers that find ways to abuse any system such as this to their advantage. I think the system in place today is far better than no penalty system at all. Sure it gets it wrong occasionally, but most of the time it is right.
