I have noticed that the rubber band trick at indy is impossible for me now
I have tried everything and cant even get 11th place the wall seems to slow me down so much more my x1 only does 80 mph max in corners :nervous::guilty:
 
ASM needs to be off. That slows you down bigtime.
 
Patch 1.10 made it so the walls slow you down more no matter what aids are on or off, thus it doesn't work anymore. Just do the seasonals 👍
 
:ouch:ohhh i thought that helped rubberbob
stupid me:dunce:
thank you so much
edit; nah now that asmis off it works

You could always just run the race. That IS why it is there, after all.
 
I have never understood why someone would buy a game and delibrately not play it.

Some people have lives and don't have hours and hours of free time to complete the game on the ridiculous level system.

There is a link here discussing this:

Basically we found you can still win, you just need to tweak your car a little.

That is so weak. I shouldn't be surprised that you went there, though. Cry babies can't wait to have every car in the game only to not drive anything besides the X2010 or ZR-1 RM. 👎 That's sad.

I have a life. I got every car I wanted just fine. I also have patience enough to not have to grind hours on end. Just B-Spec when I wasn't home and a little A-Spec grinding here and there. The game has been out since November - it's not very hard to raise enough credits without lame rubberband grinding.

Gotta laugh at the old "I have a life" excuse.
As if you're the only ones with a life.
 
I've got a life too(wife, 2 kids and 2 jobs) and I'm Lvl40 Bspec and less than 2.000.000 short on Lvl40 Aspec and I've never rubberbanded or glitched, so all the people that play this game the "hard" way must be Superman.
 
I don't understand why you would spend the money, just to finish as quickly as possible. Its like grilling a great steak, only to put it in a blender in order to drink it down in a gulp. Complete waste. Think of it like any great goal in life-half the fun is the journey.
 
to all you people thinking i dont play the game on purpose your wrong.
i set it up overnight so that when i play again i will have 12 mil+ and i can buy cars and stuff.

Don't worry about them, they're just jealous they couldn't find any rubber bands lying around. :D
 
Since patch 1.10 you can't do it on Like The Wind anymore. However, I think you can still do it on the Dream Car Championship. It just takes longer.
It's still quicker money to run the Ferrari Seasonal on Le Sarthe.

Nothing is quicker than setting up rubber bands, going to sleep, and waking up to several million dollars in your bank account. I want my seat time to be racing against real people, not robots, I did that for 10 years and it was old after GT1.

As to the rest of it, we all have lives, I even have one, and I rubber banded after I got to level 35 and my garage is awesome. People forget this is just a game, it's not real, there's no "cheating" only what the game allows you to do. If Kaz wanted to stop the rubber band grinding they could easily do a special mod on the X2010 so it slows another 50 km/h on Dream Car and voila, no more rubber band grinding. This isn't 1987, and they have an army of programmers available to do this stuff, he isn't working out of his garage. They did it for Like the Wind...lol...but not for Dream Car..anyone wonder why?

Me personally I find the Seasonal's incredibly tedious. After you've raced online, wheel to wheel at the limits of your car, against equally talented drivers, the seasonals and the rest of the game quite frankly, are incredibly boring...for me that is.

Enjoy the game whatever way you see fit and don't listen to anyone that tells you different. Regardless of the number of cars you have it's all ultimately about how good a driver you are and you can't rubber band that!!...lol.

Villain im really surprised you have enough time to play the game as you do spend a lot of your spare time on here sucking up to the mods and having a go generally at other members. :):sly:

Wait, so all we have to do is unpatch and we can do it?

That's adorable.
 
You don't have to rubberband at all to get the best car in the game... the Daihatsu Midget-II.
 
Shouldn't be rubberbanding anyway.
