This could actually be the solution to all the penalty problems. No need for any "ai" technology or complex codings. Give people penalties for any contact. So at least we know what's coming. Not great but better than being overtaken rudely and getting 3-4-5 seconds worth of penalties.
That’s how it was at the games release if you remember, and pretty much everyone in the online community flamed PD and so now here we are.
The problem people had was if someone missed a brakepoint like turn 1 Nurb GP any car touched got affected.
People cried like babies about that.
Once you understand the current system it’s no problem FOR THE MOST PART LOL
but you can’t race hard, if someone’s up your inside yield that’s all.
I’m for any system that can reduce contact.
If that means pens for all contact let’s do it.
At least under that you can race.
One big problem I saw in the little league lobbies was people don’t accept being overtaken.
People in lower lobbies have ZERO awareness,
and every corner is a battle to the death, they don’t think long game, they don’t think ahead.
So many times I’m passing people losing time because of refusal to yield.
I don’t mind being overtaken by a faster car, I look at it like I immediately become the pressure giver attacker.
It seems people view being overtaken as the end of the world sometimes in lower lobbies.
If you’re smart about it you can often force a mistake shortly after.
I dunno
But I'll take it for the first race of the season.
