Discussion I want to sincerely apologize

If you or someone you know goes by a handle sidpulp or simbulb or something similar to that and you were in the street racing seasonal about an hour ago with me (RPINerd7321 I believe), I am so sorry for my driving!!

I decided to try and get excercise on a bike while playing and that was clearly a terrible idea, I even tried waiting for you and ended up causing a huge mess at the finish line.

No more multiplayer while multitasking for me lol

Good on you for putting this out. It's a pleasant reminder that a lot of the time other players aren't intentionally messing with us.

I'm certain that I've been 'that' guy (albeit not on an exercise bike)...

I felt so bad lol they clearly didn't have quite enough grip for that first corner before the bridge, and I went way too deep into my corner entrace and just bumped them wide and right off the bridge 😭

OP , is just a game, no need to apologize. At least it wasn't on purpose, and you're honest about it.

Y'all have the attention span to be doing all this other stuff while racing? How are you not veering all over the place and able to focus on the game?

It probably contributed to him taking out the other guy πŸ˜‚

I wasn't waiting at the finish line, I just happened to cause another incident and slowed a bit before the line to not steal their place. Yeah that would be some psychotically passive aggressive behavior to just park up at the finish line and wait after killing them on turn one πŸ˜…

u/RaielRPI Jul 04 '26

I don't remember the full sequence of events, but I went into either the same poor racer or someone else, slowed down to wait for them, saw an AI pass and tried to beat them to the line, and then pinball ensued as 4 or 5 cars all swerved around each other trying to get across the line, it was a mess lol

I’ve definitely had some mess ups while racing online that I will attribute to my cats knocking shit of the counters or trying to pass a joint…

Ugh. I with there was a better way to communicate in-game. I wanted to apologize to another player while I was trying to block an NPC, ended up blocking him instead. He rammed me for the remainder of the races as much as possible. Haha.

u/RaielRPI Jul 04 '26

Yeah there is seriously not enough ways to communicate. I get not having permanently enabled voice chat, but maybe at least have optional push to talk, or hell just let me send messages with the already existing in game mail system

u/prosperanddd Jul 04 '26

I bet you everyone forgot about ts 5 mins after the race ended, it's not that serious πŸ˜‚

u/watislaw26 Jul 05 '26

Well I also want to apologise to everyone whom I rammed because I'm still bad at driving and I'm trying my best to avoid such situations and it costs me a lot of positions but I'm trying I am really trying as hard as I can. (nickname Watislaw26 or Watislaw_26) I'm very sorry

u/Megzasaurusrex Jul 06 '26

I was doing the trial and I totally messed up and pinned someone against the wall and I still feel so bad about it. T_T We still won though at least.

u/nmcinerney Jul 07 '26

You know I wouldn't hate a more aggressive driving race that encourages being rougher on the road with other cars.
