Hello,
For a few months now, I'm sometimes surprised by the laptimes of my competitors is some lobbies.
I will try to explain you, sorry for my poor English !
I usually race in GR3, with SUPER SOFT tires, and car settings allowed.
But I also race in GR3, without car setting and SOFT tires.
I know almost all my best laptimes on all tracks, depends of conditions ( lobby settings : weather, soft or super soft... ).
Yesterday, it happened again, so I decided to save the replay to check.
I was the only one French racer with all the others competitors from American continent. Most of them are friends, and I race almost everyday with them.
The suspicious race was on Mount Panorama track, GR3, SOFT tires, without car setting and they did 2'00'600 !
The usual time we do with SUPERSOFT tires AND car settings.
I usually do betwen 1'59'500 and 2'00'500 with SUPER SOFT and car settings and here, I was 2/3 seconds slower, seems logic to me.
I was surprised by my competitors accelaration, and by their laptimes. I'm usually on top, or with the best laptime time, and here I was 3 seconds behind !
The lobby closed few races after, and some friends in this lobby, joined me in an other one.
I asked my friends, and they answered me that they usually race without setting, more than me, so they know the lines...
But they didn't perform in this other lobby like they did in the previous one ! Strange.
So, I decided to check the replay, like I already did it the first time I saw this, few months ago : a friend, who was yesterday too in the lobby.
When I said him he had crazy laptimes (few months ago), overnight, I never seen him doing those crazy laptimes with SOFT tires, no car setting... !
Yesterday it happened again like I just described it, but I saved and kept the replay this time :
I can see there is a sort of lag on all my competitors view, but not on mine.
They have a sort of bug/lag, giving them a "boost" sometimes, with a normal acceleration like 128 129 130 and then 175 instantly, to come back at 132 133...
I have seen a friend in front of me having a strange acceleration, and I can see in the replay his crazy acceleration.
When in 1st gear and 2nd, everything seems good, acceleration seems normal, but when shifting in 3rd, it's instantly in high turns, there no acceleration time, so shift in 4th quickly.
I tried his Lexus (non prototype), after and alone, in the same conditions, without car setting... and I have never seen the same strange "bug".
This lag, is not visible on my own view, but visible on others, it seems I have 60fps, when others have 20 fps.
It is undeniable, that the laptimes done in this lobby are fakes.
So, what's about the internet connection speed, or the fact I use PS4Pro in 4K, not them... ?
Is there an internet speed "bug/trick" ? Or a cheat ? Or it is because I was the only one from an other continent, server ? I use 4G instead of ADSL because it's faster for me, my rates 16/20 download, and 2,2/2,5 upload on PS4. Is a degraded connection is better ? The reason of this problem ?
Thanks,
I want to post the video on Youtube, but there are names. I have seen here when searching for an already existing thread on this subject, an other thread on tricks about replays with keyboard.
(I will try to hide the names before)
