    please stop complaining about ramming.

    Ok, so lately all i hear and read about is some complaining about ramming.

    Now dont get wrong i try to race clean in fact i prefer it, i rely on skills and technique to win.
    but if and when i do and someone comes along and rams me, then its on. And in fact its a lot of fun
    i only try to race clean in free for all. As for faction vs faction. I aim to win the race but if im in the back
    and can help my faction by taking someone out to win as a team. thats what im doing. I really enjoy
    faction vs faction. It is a lot more fun brake checking and taking out fools.

    If you really want clean racing, then you are playing the wrong game. This is an arcade game.
    i know when i want intense fair racing i shot over to gt6, take my simseat out and race my heart out
    and confident to known that 90 percent of the players there are clean racers.

    In the meantime i play clean. Till someone rams me. Then im taking names and kickin ***.

    Ha see im not bothered by the complaints, im bothered by the fact that MOST and i mean most not all. Who complain cant drive for the life of him and will use any excuse as to why they come in last.
    dont blame your lack of skills and technique. On someone who rammed you. They ram me all the time, I dont get mad i get even. And never finish last. Their are many techniques To avoid someone ramming you. Learn them. and if you dont beleive me. Friend me. I will guarante atleast to be a valid contender to the top spot. If not the top.

    If every game was cattered around what one person wants, quess what? You will be the only one playing it. Which to some would be fine because then they will come in a contending spot.but Not first because they will complain about something else. Nuff said

    you do realize we can see all your post right. Hypocrasy is unbearable sometimes.

    Any racing game has those people who just ram for the hell of it. Gran Turismo, Forza, GRID, any multiplayer racing game since the beginning of time.

    For me it just comes down to good racing etiquette. If someone tries to ram me, I will start driving aggressively/offensively. But really, if someone is able to over-take you, but they go out of their way to spin you out (You know the types that come hurdling from behind on a corner and just hit you for the sake of), Then they are clearly a prat.

    Since both Beta's up until this point, I've never really had too many run-ins with people who excessively ram. Most racers I've seen who can drive well tend to not ram. Also a lot of ramming can actually be accidental. I know I have tailed people and the latency/rubber-banding issues have spun them out and vice versa. I imagine a lot of the ramming will be lessened once they fix said rubber-banding.

    But for me there is winning at all costs, and then there is winning with pride. I rather come second or third, knowing I drove with surgeon like precession, than just hurdling through a track like a gorilla on moped. It may be an arcade game, but it's not Destruction Derby.

    Ramming involves skill and technique too. You can't ram at any time and in any way and expect to win.
    It's just an additional tool that you can use to win, and that you can misuse as well.

    I would actuallly have ramming people in stead of those idiots playing PVP and Choose "No Collision AND No Traffic" ... I could might as well just play single player then , and play other peoples Ghosts ... I usually Quit those games, where people constant ly choose those , i dont mind traffic, but at least put option on so the traffic population could be set on Medium, much or little, the races become more skillbased and not lucky based as many of them is at the moment because one wrong turn it is IMPOSSIBLE ot get back if there is no collision on ( That means there isnt any Slipstream ) and that also meaning playing as a crew in PVP dont meant a thing.

    My Idead when i first saw game last year and heard about missions in pvp i though hey, then we have to work as a crew TOGETHER and make tactics on who is gonna be the speed runner and who is gonna be the tough guy and "Carguard" ( Bodyguard)

    Also often people on your team if it is random dont understand we are team mates, so why are they ramming you at even sometimes, make it that bad so your lose the important place there make the final result 20-19 on a close race but instead 19-20 and lose.

    At least put "Friendly Ramming" off so people on own teams cant ram each other , else i dont mind ramming its like that in every Car Games , its the same with every other games, shooters etc allways someone who cant control there weapns.

    here we go again .... the devs gave everyone the same options , win and chose what you like to play , can't win - then leave the lobby and find a game with the settings you like

    all these threads are pointless imo , nobody is forcing you do play the way you don't like , it's a simple as that

    dude... you can say that because you win over and over again and again. but if you were them you would say the same ****.

    this is why people need to be able to choose lobbys settings BEFORE the lobby search. and those lobbys should be locked to those settings i guess.

    dont hate on newbies ;D you were a newbie once too

    you know very well my lobbies are no collisions / no traffic and I do know what happens in the back of the pack while 1 guy gets away

    the only change the devs should make is a option to chose full assist lobby or sport / hardcore lobby and all these threads would disappear imo
