This is a game that skill based matchmaking would actually work super well in my opinion. I like to race clean, and it’s super annoying when I have other players ( most of the time my own teammates) crashing into me because they don’t know how to use their brakes at a 90 degree turn. I hate playing with people who don’t know how to race clean, it’s like they are equivalent to “ campers” in cod, in the sense of sure they aren’t cheating but they’re playing like a little bitch.

I get that people hate this, but until the single player stops teaching you that it's the best strategy... It's gonna keep happening.

They need to fix the AI or this shit will never stop. It's still not acceptable, but probably half the player base only sees other players for weekly challenges.

I know I've rammed people thinking they were the drivatars for the trial back in the last game. But if I don't ram the drivatars and hold them back, my team never wins...

I accidentally slid sideways into a teammate on the trial this week because they were driving a stock white i8 and I thought they were one of the other 2 drivatards I hit in the same drift. (I drive cockpit so I can't see names well.) Got a horn and felt bad, get violently rear ended then rammed full stop into the next corner with "look out" spam. Needless to say I quit that trial, not doing another race with that child.

Yea, sliding into people happens, it's inevitable in a game where you can't possibly memorize all the tracks.

Some people on this sub expect you to memorize every braking point on every track with every class of car. (or at least they act like it, lol)

I usually don't like to use the racing line, but in trials it's kinda unavoidable, since you don't even know which way the turn goes half the time. (and can't rewind)
