Ride 6 launching on 12th February, 2026

After some testing, can confirm that they have nerfed the physics with the latest update.

Knew the physics model was too good to last.

Ruined. Just like Ride 4 and 5.

Might be a bug. There's nothing in the patch notes on Steam to suggest a physics change.

What is a pakchunk file anyway?

And why is there no change to pakchunk21...
❓

The update seems too small at <800mb to suggest anything major like a physics change?

They never mention changes to physics in release notes. Never did for Ride 4 or 5.

Changes to the physics require updating a few lines of code. It's not like a content update so doesn't impact file size, if at all.

So only 5 pages pf discussion since the game launched. Are people not playing this game??

I'm waiting for it to come on sale, but the idea of an arcade physics option does appeal because whereas for a game like MotoGP I'm happy to learn the nuances, with a Ride I generally just want to blast around the NW200 course for half an hour before my wife gets so pissed off with me not helping with the kids that I'm shamed back downstairs. Amd on that score, not falling off every other corner and having to rewind, would be quite welcome.
