I don't use his setups. I tried his RB14 setup in TC2 and it was horrendous, but he plays with a wheel in TC2, so it's not surprising it doesn't work with a controller. In Motorfest, setup preferences are going to depend a lot on what assists and controller settings people use. One thing I noticed in FH4 was that a lot of tunes by top players were very oversteery, they liked to always be able to oversteer the car, and use their skill to find the right amount of steering within that oversteery maximum.
That's funny i thought it was the other way around and he used controller's while i use a wheel i wasn't able to counter steer quick enough..............
I have seen a bit more variation just now, got 20 points for winning one race, and 30 for 2nd in another, I think. Only 35 points short of Legend now.I was on a bit of a roll last night and won 2 online races in a row and came 2nd in the 3rd race one of the wins only gave me 16 points
No worries, (sorry) you're accurate as ever, in you're insights... just Grand Races well they just really pong ;-) Perhaps the worst aspect of the game after the jet of doom lol. Each to their own innit. I find fun in photomode, probably not everyone's cup of tea either...
I've beaten them in every event so far (think I've done 5 of the events now), but it has taken me multiple attempts, whereas most summits I'd just do one attempt at each event. I imagine the devs also made multiple attempts, though most (maybe even all) of them have obvious errors in places, and they'd be a lot harder to beat if they'd done enough attempts to achieve a run without any obvious errors. I think only the aliens will be beating them in every event with a single attempt.
The ramming in collision races is pretty annoying. I think it would help if people were aware just how few points are at stake for gaining or losing a place or two, maybe they'd understand that they're just so much better off working with people to use the slipstream rather than trying to ram anyone who tries to pass them 10% into the race. I see so many people who are silver or gold rank and they try to ram a legend off the road at the 10% mark. Like, why?!!!!! You think you're going to keep a significantly better driver behind you for the remaining 90% of the race by slowing both of you down by ramming them every time they get alongside you?! You don't realise that's going to push both of you down the field from the 14th and 15th places you're currently in, whereas if you let them past and stay in their slipstream maybe you'll get into the top 5?!
I salute you beating the dev's I'm seeing them pull away on straights suggesting some kind of difference to my set up (im too lazy for manual gears) would not be suprised if they have a different spec car or crew tows going on. Ive witnessed them disappear with full nitrous and a flat foot so something is out of wack for me lol. I respect you're skill level beating them!
No, honestly, they're just solo attempts with the same cars we have, all I had to do to beat them is copy what they do, but improve on it a bit.
Belting im keeping up a bit more now, thanks for that, got rid of some dead zone on throttle trigger too. Ive still been hitting platinum every week, but have hamstrung myself abit it seems. Still struggling a bit though... the ghost really distracts me and makes me erratic.
It depends on the corner, some can be taken flat out, some you need to brake for. Some corners that can't be taken flat out can be taken faster by "guttering" where you put two wheels on the dirt, but this does scrub speed from the car so you should only do it when it's overall faster. The dev cars don't have grip mods, but they do drive fairly close to optimally. The game is actually reasonably sim in terms of basic driving physics, so trail braking into corners, partial throttle in corners before hitting full acceleration, are both effective techniques. Where it's arcade is more like the effect of hitting walls, that sort of thing, where it's much more forgiving than a sim like AC EVO, for example.
When I’m driving they’re 30 seconds + faster than I am and they keep pulling away I’m still in the 3:50 range when I finish the races with a few crashes here and there.
I was worried at first the times wouldn't count unless you win pheeeweee it would be interesting though to see how many could make it this week if that was the case 🤔
