Yeah i am. Wont be online for a few days but could do it one night next week. Add me if you want - psn id is kalamazoo123

😂How can you say good riddance if you’ve never drove a single lap around it? That’s the very definition of prejudice! I actually find it quote a fun track to drive, good variety in there and i think it would have made for a good race.

I agree to an extent. Random online races will always be a bit of a lottery, and there are a lot of people every year who either don’t know how to race, or value winning more than being clean (then there’s also a very small amount of people who just want to wreck you for the sake of it). I have found it to be much better this year though. With a safety rating of S i have mostly found relatively clean lobbies with people who actually want to race properly. It’s not perfect, I agree the penalty system needs work, and people are still generally too aggressive, but overall i do think it’s much better this year.

Nope, neither of above, just enjoying the game. Played about 75 ranked races, not seen a single cheat. Edit: not seen a cheat in terms of unrealistic speed or anything like that... seen plenty of cheats in terms of ramming people off to gain places! Won about 25 of them, so definitely not the quickest, but not slow either 😀

This is a good point... I actually have the same problem with the wheel. You get so used to gently turning it through the fast corners, sometimes i find im nowhere near full lock through the slowest corners unless i really focus on it.

Well i care about TT, and i’m sure others do too so no need for sure a big generalisation (that’s actually nothing to do with your point anyway). As for ranked matches online, I haven’t found any issue. Played plenty and sure sometimes there are a few guys a bit faster than me, but not by much, and nothing to suggest they’re cheating.

All of these suggestions Make sense except sliding the front toe to the left... Isn’t increasing the front toe (i.e. moving it to the right) supposed to increase front responsiveness?

Anyone got any ideas? It’s top of leaderboard at Monaco on PS4... is it same as Merc, or better?

Yeah i know, that’s pretty much the same on PS4, on most tracks, but like i say the actual time doesn’t look odd, so i was just wondering how fast that car is.

I think that’s exactly how it works unfortunately. The AI damage sensitivity doesn’t seem to change when you change this setting, only the players. Ridiculous design decision. Also, it’s so frustrating when you have contact with the AI no where near your front wing, and it breaks! Drives me mad. I want to play with simulation damage, but it’s just not worth it at the moment - it’s more like and unfair random damage mode

Can’t remember assists sorry but the time was not out of sync with the other top times so looks legit.

I suspect Ferrari wont sign it off...

What would be the point of having rear wing damage in the game though? I mean, a better animation when you trash it In the barrier would be nice, but if you do this it’s race over anyway. The teams can’t repair rear wing damage in a pitstop so really wouldn’t add anything to the game in my opinion. Front wing damage is another matter, and it is frustrating how sometimes your front wing can break from contact that clearly didn’t touch the front of your car!

Another new account Mike? 😂

Totally agree, but has been suggested multiple times since the halo was introduced. I can only assume they can’t (don’t see why), or don’t want to, do it.

Anyone else just stuck on the loading screen for time trial?

My favourites are Hungary, Monaco, Brazil and Catalunya in that order. Also loving Netherlands this year. Really don’t like Canada, Russia, or France, not really sure why, just never enjoy driving them at all.

I don’t think a little variation hurts. Luck of the draw then.

What i’m seeing here, is that we’re all stronger or weaker at different tracks. That tells me it’s not an AI issue at all, it’s down to our own strengths and weaknesses at different tracks. Also influenced of course by setups and driving styles/preferences.

I think the AI use fairly low wings, but not really low. I took a low downforce (custom) setup at Spa and had no problem on the straights - could pass them or keep them behind. Conversely i took high downforce at Hungary and was much faster than them through the corners. Keep in mind though that engine wear will play a big factor in your straight line speed and im not convinced the AI suffer from it.

Give it rest... honestly who cares??? Much better they’re working hard on important updates (i see patch 1.06 just dropped) 😊

No, i race on PS4 with T300 and F1 rim and have not experienced this.

Is it the constant pop up top left “communicating with online services” that you mean? That really annoys me too, so distracting and totally unnecessary when i’m playing career! Yes, i know i could switch my PS4 offline but really shouldn’t have to do this every time i want to switch between career and multiplayer.

It was in a bit of a state at release, but since patch 1.05 it’s all working as it should. Haven’t seen any bugs since then. on PS4

Huh?
