PureDriving 81 Posted July 24, 2019 Un-Ranked is where it is at, this year. I have given up trying to find 25% ranked races. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
likewise 19 Posted July 24, 2019 You would think that after ten years, they would have figured out that the penalty system has always been a joke. At this point I have no faith that CM can ever fix it... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaleRossi 619 Posted July 24, 2019 It's particularly nice seeing half the lobbies with single player private rooms so people can tune their MP car. MP, in general, needs a Sim full damage 50% cockpit only lobby. Perhaps make the first three laps ghosted just to phase out the impatient dbags that want to wreck people. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mRfLoZe 9 Posted July 24, 2019 I have generally found that ranked lobbies seemingly have less "idiots" than unranked - but it is incredibly frustrating when someone t-bones you out of nowhere...I accidentally put someone out of the race by a general mistake, I messaged them after to apologize and all was well. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OK it would mean you could pass THROUGH people but if you're faster than them who cares really? Would stop dangerous idiotic blocking and dive bombs straight away. The car with fastest line round the corner wins end of story. Of course it would be silly if they looked transparent, you'd get round that by only actually ghosting the moment contact was made. Would also prevent turn 1 carnage from wrecking all the cars behind. It would also make idiots and terrible drivers look pretty darn stupid very fast and stop anyone ever ever again using their car as a torpedo.

Zachrulez 50 Posted July 24, 2019 It would probably be fine if they sustained the correct amount of damage to their cars. The real problem is that the damage model is very limited and they know how to exploit it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wait...you're brake checking someone that could be drafting?lol Maybe they could have a test to pass for certain levels of ranked. Top 10 finish on 100% AI with full damage etc. Just thinking of ways to weed out prior to being in lobbies. If you can do it on 80%, that's another lobby, 60% another and so on. And if you can't finish 25% without wrecking your car, you get to stay in the current lobbies. lol They dont have to get as crazy as iRacing, but something could and should be done.

All good ideas as usual but... Every F1 game will always allow any person of any age, skill or temperament to enter any lobby they want at any time and do whatever they want. All we can hope for is to survive long enough in these wrecking races so we can rise above and be placed in safer lobbies later via a functional match making system . All grading will done online only not offline as Lil' Dennis wants go smashy smashy now! The old adage of go last to go fast applies. Cruise round track in last place for 20 races or whatever to get into safer playgrounds then you can start to speed up! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smashy smashy lmao How long does it legitimately take to rank up high enough for decent lobbies? It was funny earlier that the first time on a week I came across someone in an Assetto Corsa lobby that had to be booted. Contrast that with F1, it is about once a week you get a clean lobby in MP.

thegodz 0 Posted July 25, 2019 I think that even in un-ranked lobbies it would be nice for the host to set a minimum rank level or not ... So as person that join lower ''ranked'' games you know you could get your race ****** up right off the bat ... There is multiple ways they could do it but feels like they dont care . Its very sad beacause i love the game alot ... 😞 But i dont want to play online anymore lol the first 3 laps of ghosting could be fun to or at least the first 1-2 laps at least all those t-bonners and ass smackers could already be out . lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I start lobbies (RANKED) with minimum F safety rank (U is unranked below F or plain idiot level) and min skill level 1000 (default start is 1500). I'm fine this way with people joining with limited ability but anyone who has either just started or crashes for fun can't join. It only takes about 5 races to go from U to F if you drive safely.

FOneFanatic 176 Posted July 25, 2019 Drivers who ram are grouped together with other like drivers based on their safety rating. The key to get with a great group of players is to up your safety rating by avoiding ramming or being rammed. The game's algorithms will group you with players who are safe and professional . Also, to those of you who think you can get in and ram someone to affect their safety rating - the game is sophisticated enough to determine pernicious behavior and apply the crash blame culpably! Professionals are lumped with professionals, and immature and punk drivers who like just getting into lobbies just to ram, are excluded from playing with the safe, mature professionals. If you want to enjoy multiplayer lobbies, it's simple: don't be a PUNK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FOneFanatic 176 Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) Regardless, I've been playing Ranked Online since the game open and I have a Safety Rating of S, though my skill set points are only in low Silver, and I'm grouped with only S safety rating with folks in Silver skill set and the game play is awesome online! To improve your safety rating you must give cede to drivers who are faster than you when being overtaken (this is the main cause of bad safety ratings because there is the tendency to block the over taker, thus casing contacts and accidents). Hold back from initial corners and ones that have a tendency to attract collisions e.g. first corner on Monza. Try to avoid contact at all costs and improve your safety rating and get graduated to race with the pros (me not included) - LOL! Those who crash will continue to crash and will continue to play with those who continue to crash, fortunately! Edited July 25, 2019 by FOneFanatic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BluntRS 182 Posted July 25, 2019 Platform / Time Zone, all play a part to the type of players your racing, Safety rating of S means nothing, just like AI100+%, If the faster drivers are truly faster, they'll find away pass, unless your being lapped, you have a right to track position, a right to race, and that inc's defending your position, all this you blocked me, you caused a accident attitude from the driver behide stems from Forza BS unwritten rules, F1 Youtubers promoting divebombing ( they turned in on me ) ask any real racing driver, its the car behide fault for causing a accident not the one infront, Some league have rules, you must have a mic, you must tell the other driver when your on thier side and which side, then in return they'll tell you when your clear to pull back in, what sort of racing is that, Last lobby I want to be in with is the Pro's who use "no assits" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
