Worst You've Dealt With Online...

Not overall. But in a straight line, under nitrous, my GTS will out-accelerate a stock X2010.

If you're referring to the '02 Viper GTS, then I can relate. I smoked a Veyron earlier today in a Route X drag lobby, to which the Veyron driver raged so hard after his $2 million car got trounced by a built-at-home $78,000 car. :lol:
With the stock 6-speed installed, it will out-launch even the GT-R Black Edition if the Viper driver has pixel-perfect reflexes.
 
Joining a cruising room hosted by @KiroKai will sort out all the ramming nonsense. Getting rammed up the backside in my Evoque by a random in a McLaren F1 doing 150mph in a 60mph zone was no exception to a swift kick. And no flag kick nonsense too, If you follow the rules, you're safe.
 
Small tip for people just wanting to have some quick, clean and fun free driving. Check if there's any Japanese lobbies. I've joined a few because I got tired of seeing "Drag only", "Nascar Dirty" or something else random. Every lobby from over there I've joined so far was pleasant. Only 1 Red Bull X2010/2011 so far and even then he got booted right away. Just don't expect to talk much there :lol:

Wut?

Also I've encountered another online fool:

I was playing in a Cops 70 mph room, and I was a civilian/robber. I'm doing 30mph, driving carefully, and a cop passes by me and rams me, hard, then says: "3/3 mr. noor 4 ramming a cop n evasive driving and speeding change ur car"

I only typed that to point out your big mistake: Joining a JDM lobby in a GT game. Did you expect to have an intelligent and fun group of people that got along nicely with each other? I'm sorry, but you won't find that in any JDM lobby.

Actually I've had some good experiences with JDM rooms in GT5.
 
Online? So far? Me, for the first time in a friend's lobby. Broke my GT6 online cherry. Apparently I'm not able to change brake bias on the fly during a race? Bad juju for a no-ABS user... at Bathurst... in a 1500kg stock NISMO R32. Yup, disappeared in a cloud of tire smoke, scre-e-e-eching into Griffins Bend. And again, through The Dipper. And through The Chase into and past Turn-21. That was Lap-1. Six more laps to go. :embarrassed:

Come join our lobbies bud, you'll find you're quite wrong
 
KiroKai is an original guy, I tell ya.

Act cool towards him, and you'll get to know the kindest fellow the Internet has to offer.

Be an @$$ towards him, he'll remember that for a long time and will try to troll the hell out of you whenever he has the occasion.

His lobbies are among the most fun I've ever had the occasion to participate. If you just want to drive around, cruise, maybe even slightly race for a bit, look for this name. Always some cool people there 👍
Unless some random drifting fanboy joins in, that is.

Still awesome.
Anyway, my Veyron project is coming out smoothly, I got it to 306mph with Nitrous on a bad gear ratio setup. After some tinkering though, it'll be read for the little kids in their x1s.
 
Joined a rookie drift lobby, for people who were just starting out with drifting and wanted to practice. For the most part, it was quite good; everyone was friendly and if someone hit you, it was a genuine mistake and they apologised straight away. Then some little kid joins. In a Veyron. In chrome gold. Tinny dubstep comes through the mic. Shouting and screaming th n-word, other expletives whilst saying he could 'own' us all, even though it's clearly maked as an amateur lobby. All hope is lost.

As far as I could tell, his interpretation of drifting was to simply press the handbrake, steer in the direction you wan and hope for the best - as a result, we all got hit, and since the Veyron weighs like, a million tons, we all got pelted far off the course. Somehow, this was our fault. Then, he unveils his icing on the cake:

Kid: "For **** sake, those Chinese game makers know nothing about drifting, it would be so easy in a Veyron in real life."
Me: "You do know this game was made by the Japanese?"
Kid: "You what? Nearly everything electric is made in China, you know nothing mate. **** this anyway, I'm going on FIFA."

It's like every stereotype about both kids and car culture, as well as online gaming are fused together. I wish I was joking, but you just had to savour the stupidity to truly believe it.
 
For me the worst is the new penalty system which is completely screwed up compared to GT5.

To me, GT5 penalty system was perfect. I don't know why they had to change it... Totally messed up.

Here's one ridiculous thing that happened to me in one race:

We were starting a Nordschleife race, all cars obviously so close at the start, some faster cars in the back trying to overtake some slower ones (reverse grid) but its difficult in the first corners. So I was stuck behind one of those slower cars, and one bastard lucky guy behind me gets the transparency and passes me, then right after I try to re-pass him using it but it was too late, the transparency just disappeared and I got a penalty for hitting him. LOL.
 
I haven't played any GT6 online yet, I've been working on the career. But when I went online on GT5, rarley, all I wanted to do was have a friendly race. Not too hardcore or too easy, because arcade wasn't always good enough. Unfortunately it would take me at least 6-7 lobbies to find one I could settle in for more than one race. But all of these cursing, racist, nationalistic, bragging, inconsiderate, mean, 🤬 holes that have no respect for eachother is dissapointing. If I want to crash into other people than I put in NFS. But GT6 is where I RACE not WRECK. But what dissapoints me evenmore than that, is all of these kids that act like sex offenders and think they now s**t about cars because they picked up their iPhone and googled "booggati veayron fast" and looked at the first image result. I may be only 14, but I don't act like all of these idiot kids online that think they are Ken Block. I know i'm not the greatest racer, drifter, tunner, etc. but I don't act like I am. At least all of these people with X1 cars are broke, unless they took their parents credit card and blew out his parents christmas bonus....

Mother: "Oh, i'm sorry we couldn't get you GTA V this Christmas Jimmy, someone spent $60 on something called credits."

The most boring and obnoxious lobby I've been in so far; a 530pp race on SSRX. I only joined it since someone on my friend list added me and it was with people that had mics and they were well, obnoxious. The racing though was dull, I mean c'mon; how can you have fun driving on a track with long straighaways with a 530pp car.

That was really it and not really that bad, just something I felt like sharing until I run into some real bad lobbies.
I do have another annoyance though about online racing, people that always equip racing soft tires.
 
Went for a dirty NASCAR racing yesterday and someone thought it is a good idea to play music over mic. That's annoying. :grumpy:
 
lol I feel you @CallmeDan

Racism is everywhere in this world so GT is no different. It's kinda rare to see in GT6 so far because mostly people that love cars and racing bought it, and 99% of them aren't racist. But I hate it when some players complain about "foreigners" messing up the connection somehow. I even read about it in this thread.
Some "foreigners" do have bad connections just like some Americans or Europeans would. I did encounter a "foreigners" slowing/glitching the lobby complaint -meaning me as i was the only non-American or Canadian in the lobby-, so anyways it was the host or someone else that left the room and it was fine afterwords. Or the new one is "he's from a different server" or something so he'll slow down the lobby.
If you see me glitching or whatever you can ask me politely to leave and I will, but I never had a true complaint. I raced in a lot of lobby's right after I got complaints in GT5 and that one time in GT6 and no one said I was glitching or anything.
A lot of people from eastern Europe and the middle-east have American or UK flags because of this. because they don't want to come-across some racist guy/girl. And they never have a problem after that -given they do have a good connection like i do-. Anyways sorry to bore you, just needed to get it off my chest.

I'm not trying to spark anything here, but does anybody think that European players tend to 'stick together' more and maybe attack other nationalities on track? I notice that British players are picked out a lot, because when I am in a clean room with Germans or Swiss etc, more often than not they gang up on the British guys and take us out for fun. Are the British some kind of laughing stock online? Or am I imagining it?

Some people just eat hate for breakfast I guess. And if on top of that you drive better than they do, you're just asking for it lmao ... It's so sad it's funny.

Personally I prefer to race against the British guys because they don't take others out. Whenever I'm a foreigner in a room full of other Europeans, they seem to adopt a much dirtier style towards me but the Brits are much friendlier.

Anyway my recent story: I accidentally made contact with another driver from understeer and he went into the gravel as a result. He obviously expected me to stop completely and wait for him, because two laps later when he was next to me he deliberately drove sideways into me to take me out and I had to brake to avoid it.

Sure, accidents happen, and I apologised for my part after the race, but he was considerably rude towards me both on-track and in text form afterwards.
 
On topic:
Number 1, not driving clean,
The worst thing must be when people call you names and a hacker because they are not fast enough( even though im really not that fast)
Or just ignore you when they just bumbed you off the track and think its totally normal to that and can not even type a 3 letter abbreviation SRY (sorry right?)
And what they dont get is that if you want to rally, you do this on a rally track, not on the grassfields of the nordschleife....

Slightly offtopic:

when seeing these kind of posts i really REALLY hope pd give us better penalty rules.
I usally host online races myself ( sick of the same old kiddys rooms no offence!)
Everyone here that is looking for nice clean semipro driving is always welcome!
I really dont care what your nationality or age is, infact the thing i really like is when you have 16 people on the grid from all kinds of nationalitys trying to race properly and clean!
There are alway people much faster/slower so you got different fights on the track anyway.
Some of the races i really liked was when i was fighting for a few positions, and then i dont have to be 1st or second, third would be nice though ;-)
But seriously its not always about winning but its always about racing!!!
Thats something not everyone seems to understand or like.
A good example would be on the 24h nurburg, where you can easily ooutbrake/manouvre on the first part of the track but when turning in to the old nordschleife its mostly impossible (or someone must be a lot faster).
I mean, when driving 250 kmph (155 mph??) on a track where there is only room for 2 cars next to each other, some kiddys actually think you can ovetake someone with that kind of speeds. (result is going of track)
Now thats why i think some kind of flag system would be nice, as the computer can easily track who is faster.(cornering and straight speed).
I usally host 600 pp DTM-TOURING-GT-JGTC races with racing tyres with a 150mb dl- 15 mb ul connection.
