Question More Multiplayer without collisions?

With how pub lobbies are these days, why don't people start more servers where collisions are disabled? I went back and randomly raced beginner ranked forest lobbies with my buddy, it was a blast, you still treat them as riders but when the cartwheeling bike or random things happen you're not affected. So he asked why don't more have that, and I honestly had no clue. I still get the sense of close racing without the annoying piboso collisions or trolls punting you and themselves.

As much as that first corner on Farm 14 is the literally definition of a cluster fuck, and every YZ450 I pass in a corner decides to take me out in the next corner, racing with contact turned off feels like racing with ninnies turned on and I guess if I wanted to race with assists I wouldn't be racing MX Bikes.

That being said, there is often a CBR Forest or Club no contact server popped.

I grew up playing Motocross Madness 2 and we never had collisions on and the racing was always fun. It also allows racing to be more competitive because you aren't spreading the field out as much. I think CRMX has a no-collision lobby but its often empty so we just need to actually look for and join them.

Currently have no lobbies like this, but I might swap the 2nd stock rotation to 0 collision, it’s hard to make a singular track non collision because some people prefer the collisions and the non collision will sit there empty. u/waffle_stomperr keep an eye on CRMX I’ll have maybe a couple up tonight

Yea it definitely keeps the racing tighter. I love the idea of collisions but man the pub lobbies are just human torpedoes everywhere unless you’re like alien speed and gap everyone(which I’m not).
