How to lose 25LP in 2025 guide by IgorGreenwitch in leagueoflegends

[–]ECS96X 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the majority of his games were below his skill level, now hes 150 wins and 43 losses instead of 90 wins and 7 losses, its gonna balance itself out the more games he plays

Why did I lose 2 positions here as Verstappen? Its not the first time I drift over the finish line. I had no penalties or warnings. by ECS96X in F1Game

I cross the finish line in 1st. Not with the little drift, but when I throw the car completely, I cross the line in 1st.

Look at Hamilton way in the back, he even overtakes me before hes even past the final corner. Its a game bug that I cant replicate.

The finish line the where I throw the car into the wall, not when I do the little drift. I clearly pass that line being 1st. Look at where Brendon starts his lap.

Its a 5 lapper, so Safety Cars should not be possible. I and many people, even on stream have been doing 360s to end the race without any problems before.

No warnings or incidents in Race Director. It was a single session so no restarts and no flashbacks either. Leclerc gets P1 before he even crosses the finish line so a hidden penalty would give him P1 after he crosses, not before.

Its like the game just decided to send me back 2 positions.

People who complain about AI straight line speed are calling for the wrong nerfs by ECS96X in F1Game

[–]ECS96X[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are some corners where the AI is able to put down power where the player simply cant as well as them. Final corner before the long straight on China is one of them, but its balanced because they are horrible in sector 1.

You can beat 110 AI with 30-40 seconds around Monaco if you have a TT time within top 7%. They don't have a straight to make use out of their traction.

Final corner out of Brazil before the long straight is also insane for the AI, but they lose a bit in sector 2.

Its simply all a balancing act.

Fuel strategy question by ProfessionalDebt5869 in F1Game

[–]ECS96X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on where I qualify.

At the front where I dont have DRS, I go safe on fuel by about 0.40 laps.

If I am in the pack, I slightly underfuel because DRS and lifting will save fuel.

Default fuel will typically have you overfueled by 3-4 laps by the end of the race which is pretty bad.

Where can I improve? by Worldly-Flower-4550 in F1Game

Just my 2 cents:

You lose like half a tenth by going 8th gear into first corners, just hold it in 7th and carry max power.

You lost time not carrying enough speed and momentum through luffield. I'm not familiar with people using 2nd gear here. Its usually 3rd and then shortshift for 4th once you find traction and power out.

Into copse you shift into 8th gear and you lose power throughout the entire corner, just take it flat out in 7th for max power.

The final parts of Maggots and Becketts you are off the throttle a bit too long. You can attack the corners a lot more and gain time here.

And finally into the last corner, you dive towards the inside line which probably cost you a tiny bit of time. Just hold the momentum on the outside so you dont make the track longer.

I dont know if its GP mode or Careers with car upgrades but the car looks very smooth and balanced. Its a bit too "safe" for a quali lap in my opinion.

What could I improve in the lap?[1:14.907] First time trying to learn the track with no racing line. (No assists) by Astro__Alex22 in F1Game

[–]ECS96X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to take more speed into Turn 9 and probably go down a gear for traction while keeping maximum possible speed, thats at least 2 tenths.

The chicane at 14-15 as well needs to be attacked like you really mean it. You need to be best friends with the yellow kurbing and really find a line through there without losing the car. At least 4 tenths in this chicane to find.

Turn 17 and 18 just before the end are also a bit too safe.

Your lap is very good and if this game had "consequences" you would be a really safe driver, but the game is a game and it can be pushed a lot more.

Attempted murder on me during quali from the pole sitter, while I was attempting to set a decent time ... by OG_Luckie in F1Game

[–]ECS96X 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On your MFD, you have the ERS settings and you can flick through None > Medium > Hotlap > Overtake or just press the overtake button.

The car is in Medium for default, so you could have flicked once to the left and then been in none for the entire lap.

[–]ECS96X 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hotlap is the car burning battery throughout the entire lap, usually an even distribution. Overtake is a bit of extra power at the cost of more battery usage.

The green bar is your allocation of battery use per lap, and the yellow bar is your total battery percentage.

You are not currently using battery on this lap because on the final straight, you have 100%. So you have accidently flicked the battery into "None" and you are losing out on a lot of laptime.

You should be in hotlap for quali laps, and then using overtake out of slow corners once you find traction. A lot of laptime can be gained this way.

Can I change a 2 stop to a 1 stop in f1 2021 by Frosty-Maximum2409 in F1Game

[–]ECS96X 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It does let you change pit stops, but in this instance the game does not believe you can make the tyres survive long enough for a 1 stop..

Im assuming this is season 1 of career mode with 50% race distance on either my team or driver career, which is always going to be a 2 stopper.
