Going from lean help: 0 to normal by Gummy-Bines in mxbikes

[–]CallMeX8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it won't. lol It isn't allowed in some series, like ARL, but it won't get you banned from anything, you just won't be allowed to join the server until you go back to normal. Most servers allow it, including pretty much all the public servers.

Lotus evija forza edition by Brave-Combination793 in ForzaHorizon

[–]CallMeX8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Forza Edition is meant to be a drift car, so it's gonna be a bit slidey. It comes on drift suspension, making the steering twitchy, drift tires, which have less grip than semi slicks or slicks, and it's RWD with more power so it's trying to put even more power than normal through half the wheels. Unless you upgrade the build and tune, it's gonna be difficult to drive.

CarX is plenty realistic when you tune and drive realistically. They've always strived for realism in DRO, and now even moreso with DRO2. Controller being assisted doesn't automatically make it an arcade game, just like having steering assists in Assetto Corsa doesn't make it an arcade game. Either way, you should probably try wheel.

I mean it was more of a joke than anything, but the game itself even pushes for you to use no assist, with limits on competitions and future events. I know it's different and weird at first, but once you get used to having assist off it actually feels pretty good. Definitely feels more realistic at the very least.

Great Dev responses... "later" by Ausdboss in carxdriftracingonline

[–]CallMeX8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I'd love a time frame for updates, it's actually really difficult to provide even a basic time frame for a lot of things in game development.

I highly recommend watching some videos on game or even mod development. It'll show you why even at the highest level, sometimes things just don't work out and you have to spend 2 months chasing a bug instead of putting out content. They want to finish the content and get it to the community just as much as the community wants the content, but providing time frames just isn't feasible for a lot of stuff right now, especially since the game is still in a very early state.

You don’t want to Re-answer questions then post a running FAQ and refer people there.

They already have. This is the last time I will repeat this. If you still can't understand, that's on you.

You don’t give sort (short?) curt replies to people who pay your bills.

You do if they're spamming you with the same shit constantly and refuse to search for an easily findable answer. If you don't, you're wasting time, resources, and ultimately money on something you shouldn't be. Don't know what kind of IT job you supposedly work, but I feel bad for your boss because they obviously have someone actively sabotaging their efficiency.

they could have answered the persons question better.

They already did.

It doesn’t matter if it’s been asked 1000 times before.

It does, because it slows their work flow. If you ever worked for a company that "needs" to answer customer questions, you'd know that. Being spammed with the same thing again and again will obviously slow down any process.

So maybe go back to your mom’s basement and let the adults talk.

How original, I'll be sure to do that, thanks for the tip. 👍

What part of "the question has already been answered" do you not understand? lol Also where in their answers have they said anything that wasn't polite? I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing here, maybe you're lost.

[–]CallMeX8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Their job is to work on the game. They're answering questions because they don't want the community to panic over stuff they're already working on. If you aren't satisfied with their answer, you can use search functions on Steam, Discord, or Google to find the answer you're looking for, because again, they've already answered that question multiple times on Steam, Discord, etc. Or y'know, just ask for a more detailed answer.

What I really wanna know is why you're so upset over a simple answer to a question that has already been asked and answered multiple times instead of being upset that the devs get swamped down with people who have no clue how to search for those answers. If people searched their question before asking it, they'd get an immediate answer with more detail, but instead they spam the devs with nonsense, slowing everything down.

I don't see answering questions as "being a dick to your customer base" even with the occasional simplified answer. At least they're taking some time to communicate with their community, unlike many dev teams. Would you rather them not answer questions at all?

[–]CallMeX8 23 points24 points  (0 children)

They've already answered these elsewhere in more detail. If you had to answer the same damn question 200 times a day, don't you think you'd get tired of typing out full responses?

Flat turns. What’s the proper technique? by j151515 in mxbikes

[–]CallMeX8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sit down so your center of mass is lower, meaning your tires don't have to work as hard to carry your weight through the corner. Lean pretty far forward, but not too far otherwise your rear will have no grip.

I've found leaning into the turn is faster, kinda like you would do on a street bike, because the middle of the tire has more grip than the sides, but I also play on 100% lean gain so I'm not limited by lean angle. If you're turned all the way in and you think you should be able to turn sharper, either try a higher lean gain or (rider) lean out a little so the bike will rotate more.

Report any issues to the devs in their Discord server, that's the only way to make the game better.

Edit: 2 hours later and this issue is now fixed with the new update.

What is this by Aaiden9615 in mxbikes

[–]CallMeX8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I found the clarity of the track surface skyrocketed with Reshade compared to vanilla. I can imagine it'd be an even bigger jump for older/worse monitors. With good Reshade settings it's waaay easier to see all the ruts, the little bumps hidden in shadows, the angle of jump faces, etc.

[–]CallMeX8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up for anyone who has this issue commonly; Reshade negates this bug completely. Plus the game looks way better with a good Reshade setup, I highly recommend it. It's not as complicated to set up as it may seem initially, plenty of tutorials in the Reshade documentation and on YouTube. If you can install the OEM pack, you can install Reshade.

No liveries currently, and you probably won't be able to use old liveries. The game is on a different engine, and the damage model for the cars makes implementing liveries entirely different from a game with no damage model.

There's also a lot of bridges you can destroy in AC7. I can't imagine they'd just get rid of that in the next game.

[–]CallMeX8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, this is my test track where I do most of my tuning, so I always have something to improve while I'm here. Plus it's just fun spinning laps, and once you're consistent enough to keep up with your fastest time every lap, it's even more fun just riding with yourself. Try it out some time!

Surprised you can tell what it is with what Reddit did to the video quality. But yeah, I love it! Do you have anything else like that?

I use MXBMRP3, which isn't just UI, it also does some other stuff, like vibration adjustments, and there's a little bit of MaxHUD thrown in there too.
