Offline vs. Online: Physics

So.. To my (and soon to be your's) disappointment, there is a major difference in the physics system between online and offline. That difference: in online, you can't roll over.

After doing what I found in this thread (setting up my car to do what he did in the video), I immediately went online to get people to laugh (I hadn't botherred to test it out after setting it up). To my disappointment I couldn't get my car to act like it did in the video.. I could not get it to roll over or barely get on two wheels. When it did get on two wheels and lean over it seemed to reach a limit as to how far it would lean. So I decided to leave the game, and went to time trial. Before altering the car's setup up as I was planning on it to see if it would fix my "problem", I decided to try again. To my suprise my car now reacted exactly like in the video.

For a moment I thought maybe I was just driving wrong online, so I went back to an online game and tried again. Sadly, I was unable to rollover and the same thing kept happening (getting stuck at a certain point). I left again, upset, and still in disbelief.

How could PD think it was a good idea to give us dumbed-down physics for online..?

Edit: Tomorrow I will be adding a video of proof of what I am talking about.

At this point, we need to make a fuss over everything that need changing all at once like we did with locked saves.

Speaking of that, if we don't get back-ups by January, it's time for pitchforks and torches.

This made me think of perhaps going to the "Kazunori tweets" thread and asking for someone to translate/ask Kaz why the physics are different.

Actually I think I'll do that now..
