Can't believe I'm saying this but I think I'm done with Sport Mode unless they fix the penalty logic 😢💔

All day I drive clean, if the guy in front makes a mistake and I can squeeze him out and take his place, I don't because I'm not an a-hole. If we are in a fast corner, i give space if I'm leading or give way if chasing.

Last 6 races (!!!!) I start 4th or 3rd and best finish i got was 11th!! Really, 11th 😤 and it's not because I'm slow, it because people exploit the new rules and either shove you off or ram you out a corner whilst using you as a brake!

If 20 people did this to me today, only 1 got a penalty!! And obviously with the loss of momentum, making my way back to the track and damage from hitting the barriers, it doesn't matter as I go from 1 second from leader to 15 seconds and 11 places down.

Not fair, irritating and infuriating! Not willing to stoop down to the level of the donkeys so will not play Sport until they fix it. Which makes me sad as I love the challenge against others 😢 will only do qualy laps but not race just to keep myself sharp..#brokenheart

I know exactly what you mean my friend.. I know it all too well.... Today I started not to drive soooo defensively and always give space... Today, when there was danger, I consciously decided to do it to defend the inside curve, but to brake softer earlier.. Just in case someone hits me from behind again... to be prepared... It really seems important to do that.. Don't panic then brake harder.

I've been pushed outside often enough these days. It makes little sense to be friendly if others take advantage of it, sometimes brutally. Just yesterday I was shot down by someone 0.57x behind me right before the corner. I don't brake so badly that he could have caught up this time just like that. And for sure, if he hadn't hit me in the middle of the turn.. he would have gone straight on....

But it shows again and again how important it is for us to start at the front.... And if possible to keep out of fights for a place.

For me, a racing accident like it is in the textbook.... It was stupid but happened... For me it is not clear who could/should have reacted differently.

That’s how I see it as a racing incident. Just glad neither of us got a penalty or lost a position. Happy with the result anyway.

Just seen 5/6 cars in Race B all fighting for track space and no one even got a penalty. They were just knocking each other of the track. On the last lap the lead car in the pack got punted off at the chicane before the last corner and lost 5 positions and the one who caused the accident went on to finish with no penalty and place higher.
All PD needed to do in my eyes, was remove the minimal contact penalty that didn’t cost any car time or position and sort out the rejoing cars that hit YOU penalty. Just seem that they went totally extreme and removed nearly all.



Race B. Trying to find a car I like that can do decent laps times. The Toyota Supra at the minute seems to be my car of choice. Done a 1.45.5 which started me dead last and 2 seconds of the car ahead. Managed to gain 3 places so was happy and was able to keep us with the cars infront. Just need to now find that extra time in my lap.
Any one have a YT hot lap? Also the global ranking system, anyone else feeling they should be a sub league split into different cars so you have your WRX list, Atenza list and Supra list etc?…

Race B currently has a few options... WRX is clear... GT-R is also very strong. The 155 Alfa as well. The Nissan Silvia seems to be able to keep up well.. and an "insider tip" of the M4 if you can drive very well with MT AND master "ShortShift".

I know there's exactly 385 better laps than mine 😂 But if it helps, here it is 😁

Thanks mate. After another hour (!) of qualifying I’m now 295th in the world! A 1.41.641. I’ve been on for a 1.45.5 multiple times but usually stuff up one of the last two corners. I still really dislike how you have to take the chicane entirely off the track. I wish PD would do something about these daft track limits.

I love to read this. It seems like everyone thinks that just because the car in front makes a mistake that automatically means you get their position. It’s infuriating. A car can make a mistake, or generally be a lot slower but the overtake still needs to be done fairly and cleanly and so many just barge their way through, especially now penalties are effectively gone/

Just found a 1.43.9 in the Supra now. My average time of the top times is about 3/4 seconds so I reckon I’ve found my limit now on a 1.43. Just need to see if I can lose a few more tenths.
WRX is king of everything right now, but I just can’t find time in it. I’m always slower in it.
M4? Hmmm… that was rubbish on manufacture race at the weekend, but as you say I could be driving it wrong. Will give it go though thanks.

I'm about to follow you, at least I'm trying as best I can. I haven't watched the Aliens ride yet.. but I'm starting to get along quite well on the track... my optimum Time is already 1.41.97x... now it's time to... get it right...But it will take a while before I'm at my optimal time.



@Roggers M4 ShortShift in the range from 6000 to a maximum of 6250 revolutions, go into the next gear... then the car gets off the mark really well.

I got in a few quali laps and have so far plateaued at 1:29.6. Would anyone happen to know if that is good enough for a B lobby? Race C.

Thats what i was saying earlier bro, the old penalty system was bad but not this bad as not having penaltys, its pretty ridiculous when i start 4th or 5th, only to end up 10th or worse due to horrible drivers, they really need to keep S drivers away from lobbys with B & C sr drivers because they are very good at exploiting this new system to keep fair drivers from good results at end of race

I’m B/S and I’ve posted a 1.30.7. I can go quicker but not had much practice time. I find in B you can be in easy races and then in hard races. Defo need a decent quali time.

For me most the time was made at the chicane. Very hard to cheat just the right amount to avoid a penalty but maintain speed.

Im so over the B/B crowd i keep getting matched with even though my sr is S, they are way too aggressive & will push you off in them curves with no hesitation, i pride myself in being able to use multiple non meta cars & finish in top 5 with them on race B but without the penalty system we had, there is no punishment for their dirtyness and im the one penalized for trying to race clean by getting horrible results, i know alot say the old penalty was bad but it cant be worse than how it is now with hardly any penalties, even on punting people.. I literally cringe & want to leave races when i see B/B & B/C drivers in lobby with me
Click to expand...
You must be right at the bottom of SR S if you're getting mixed in with them, you'd probably be better off not qualifying for a handful of races and cruising round at the back nice & slow so you get a load of clean races in a row so your SR improves & takes you away from them.

Then you can be punted off by the B/S drivers 😂

Lol i would hope B/S didnt do that but i know better & i dont think i am as i have had clean races for past few races even when punted off, i havent driven bad or run people off road, so im not sure why its mixing us in with them but either way, it sucks bigtime
 
Hmm. With perfekt run.. i also can get 25.9 at 1. But the others dont know... i strugle hard with that thin Hairpin Left after the big Schikane and Hillclimb

I often wish I could stay in B. While crossplay is unavailable, I was matching up with a lot of very high DR people when I was A.

Hate when your jumping between ranks. You can never find a rythem with the races.
I found the best way is just to grind a single race where your good at. The Gr2 race Fuji was when I managed to hold a B rank. Before that race I was jumping between ranks.

RBR is definitely one of my strengths. Just did a race where a couple of drivers clearly don't check their mirror or radar. Turning right into me. But it's all good because hopefully they will learn. One driver who rammed me was likely a juvenile so I won't let him get me mad.

Poor result but the penalty system looks like it was working okay.

Me too, I struggle with the last turn as well. Really hard to find the apex properly
Click to expand...
I take the last turn (if I can) with an apex about 5 to 10 meters later, so just past the apex.. but I have to admit I also use the corner markers.. I know the pros don't need them, but I have they like and they help me.


But one other thing, I hope you can tell me something about that... I just had my last race and again there was an incident. I really don't think I was at fault here and I didn't do anything wrong... Ok after the race when he started complaining I shouldn't have called him NOOB... but I knew what was coming. .. And even after that he continued to text me via PSN what a Pig and unfair driver I was. OK sometimes I get angry... when I get hit badly... but here... I really had nothing to do with this driver. Or how do you see that..

I'm really getting my head around.

Most of the races I was in today were won by the Alfa - seems to be easy to drive in the race! The GTR looks to get a bit of a handful as the race goes on - surely tyre wear can't affect it that much in such a short race?

with the new penalty rules, some of the worst SR C/B drivers are now A/S

Wait a minute. So he clips the grass, all on his own, almost loses his car, then comes across and hits you now that you're next to him, then complains about it?! He's a clown. He FUBAR'd it and was using you as a scapegoat.


I haven't played since this new set of Dailies. I miss last week's C.:indiff:

Hahaha what an idiot.
It clear all the idiots come out to play at night. First time I’ve played dailys after 8pm and will probably be the last time. Just had my fair share of idiots just pointlessly taking me off track. You call them out in chat for it and there response was “well I didn’t get a penalty so i did nothing wrong”.

Have to say I actually quite this weeks daily’s but the penalty system is totally destroying the majority of the fun.
Race A is just bonkers,
Race B I think is actually quite good, fast flowing track with a few tricky corners.
Race C is just a nice security race were I know I can decent results from it.
 
WTF! The RBR curb glitch is still there from GT Sport! Completely ruined my race!


Edit 2 races in a row! This time I was in first!! Arggghh

Im not expert but that looks like it was all his fault and he needed someone to blame for his mess up that cost him race, he ran into to you
 
I don't know guys, I did six or seven races today and other than the first one, there was some great, clean racing. Like, something out of a dream. It was excellent. Those who deserved a penalty got one, at least around my vincinity.

Maybe I got lucky or maybe people just complain a lot. I would suggest playing pretend and next time you get an undeserved penalty, pretend you're having car troubles or that they took too long to get your tires on in the pit. Motorsport is heartbreaking by nature.
