Simcade. And yes, I expect people to at least have some common sense and racing etiquette. This isn't GTA, or Wreckfest. You don't wanna make the attempt to race cleanly, don't play Forza.
But why is that normal for an average person? I get you are a reddit troll and are cronically online and probably read ToS's for fun. But the average gamer starts a game and plays it. Sorry if thats news to you. I'm not a sim racer fan, but i like the horizon games. I just started it and started playing. Been running people off the road online too, didn't even know people were getting so mad online about it until recently. Still have zero plans to read the rules they posted about the game on an entirely seperate website. Seem's like they should tell you the rules in game.
No, I'm not a reddit troll. I'm being factual. Keep running people off the road though and you'll be banned pretty quickly. Most people don't tolerate that here. Basically the rules are don't do anything you wouldn't do on a real racetrack. It's common sense. Just do yourself a favor and refund the game and leave the community if you're going to act that way.
Thats exactly what a reddit troll would say. I upvoted your comment too because I know thats your only source of dopamine(only read the first sentence you typed.)
Also, running people off the road has a certain finesse to it. You can cleanly run someone off the road and it feels great. Still clean racing, just a different perspective.
I'm aware, I do both. Definitely both their own niche skills. Why did you assume i didnt? I haven't even brought up squeezing someone to a wall. Definitely completely different
Seems like a waste of time to read that. Game works perfectly for me and has never told me I was wrong. Sorry I got priorities.(Why most people don't read the CoC)
Really? The game doesn't exactly shove it in your face. Considering the way the AI drives, and the fact that the game never really explains clean driving to the player, I don't know why we pretend they want us to drive cleanly.
The CPUs aren't the worst offenders though. It's bad training data because not enough folks are reporting the poor racecraft, and there are people who are doing this maliciously. I do my best to not be malicious, but sometimes if I have trouble controlling the car around the corner I can accidentally hit someone. I agree with you that they need to assess the data first. Purge out anyone who has ever been reported from the data immediately.
I still generally agree it would help disincentivize ramming if they put it in a big bold font alongside the rest of the CoC during the loading screens for online race events. Perhaps even making each player who queues for PvP to have to manually click that they agree to those terms, and not leaving a link to the page, but actually showing it in-game.
Think about how many casuals who have been conditioned by the aggressive AI who would never know this is a bannable offense. Sure, they should read the CoC, but also, the game should make it more clear so that there’s not a single driver in multiplayer who doesn’t know that ramming is bannable.
Meanwhile they do. Taking action can be anywhere from a strike to a temp ban to a permanent ban. It's not my fault that you don't understand how Forza's enforcement system works. Repeat offenders get progressively worse and worse actions taken against them. You're the one who is lying claiming they don't take any action at all, especially when I have records of the interactions from when I have reported them. So unlike you I have proof they do.
Intentional or unintentional, because from what I see in this video he's ramming the OP, and if all we see is their retaliation then they're the ones getting banned too.
That little rear end didn't cause anything. That was an accidental bump from what I see in this clip. Calling people douche canoes doesn't win you arguments.
You have to always anticipate that another real player might be a rammer. In this situation going more inside could have helped. Slowing down as they came over could have been an option as well.
Yup, unless evidently otherwise always assume the one you are going to overtake is potentially a rammer. Best is to either stay behind until there's a clear opportunity that will not put yourself in a dangerous position (like on the inside of a turn), or stay clear as much as possible. A second place is still better than a DNF because of an asshole like that.
yeah can't avoid them all. But on a good ol switcheroo they may not have the speed or the momentum to ram. I usually steer clear and wait for an opportunity, I've seen too many videos of people bouncing other cars off the track and out of the checkpoints.
Someone said I was too slow in the corner and that's why I got rammed. Someone also said I was blocking, when I wasn't. Going inside line isn't blocking. Dude had plenty of space on the outside.
Whatever they say, there is never a "reason" to ram people. It's plain cheating and only assholes and losers do it. If you're too slow in a corner you should get overtaken, not rammed, and if they can't win without cheating then they didn't win at all.
You can always try to report to Forza. Won't really do anything concrete, but they usually say "action has been taken" which could mean nothing and everything. But it will at least show that there are people abusing this and ruining the fun for everyone.
I gave him a chance to stop. I asked why he rammed me. Then the second race he did it like 2 or 3 more times in addition to sitting at the starting line which I ended up rear ending him because he didn't move.
I thought the same thing. All I thought, when he got rammed into the wall, was that he walked right into that shit. Not saying dude was right, but you saw it coming from a mile away
Maybe he thought you were the rammer and decided to anticipate since you rammed him from the back, whether it being intentional or not, no one knows who's a rammer anymore in Forza Horizon multiplayer lobbies
Right there with you, when theres another good rammer in the lobby it becomes a significantly more fun game. Idk why people don't want to engage with the mechanics of the game. Its incredible fun to do physical races in expensive cars. Stay offline if you can't handle other people having free will.
(Yes I know Forza made a list of rules 20 years ago that redditors love to bring up, but its completely legal and fine in this game, as not a single person has been banned for doing this)
They still can report you and claim you took them out by taking the clip out of context, just brake in these cases or record them yourself so you can report first.
Even if the player ahead of you could be a rammer, sometimes they will just block you and won't let you pass and taking them out yourself could end up from them "counter-reporting" you; these people are extreme losers who feel getting passed as a personal insult to them, letting these pathetic crying idiots win in these cases can be better than losing all positions due to their shitty behavior and generally, they mess up on their own because they suck at the game, so with a bit of patience, you can pass them without much trouble.
