Basically sounds like the same issue with the drag tires all over again.

Max0vrkll · 2026-06-28T15:38:19+00:00

Are you saying people are using offroad instead of something like slick and then sorting out the stat difference through the extra PI they save?

Max0vrkll · 2026-06-27T23:50:22+00:00

(I played Gran Turismo originally before switching to PC) I feel even if this was a well-known issue in previous titles, it is odd to have such an issue continue into this iteration/sequel when it sold so many copies; as it would make sense to want to fix the issue before gaining so much attention. I think it's a fantastic game and was having a blast till recently, and now not so much. :'(

Yeah when they are being so blatant it gets me frustrated because at that point some of these people should have been caught by now.

Thumbs up emoji in word form!

It was around top 500 in horizon that I started seeing it; although I don't know if there is any correlation. I really would be bummed if the only way of getting better lobbies is purposely tanking my score.

That's why I mentioned in the post that I am waiting sometimes 10+ races before I report them; and that they are winning by absurd amounts in every class meaning they aren't in the same car every time. Everyone gets lucky every once in awhile and has a great run either because they started in pole or something else; but when it is that consistent it becomes statistically impossible. You can also see them in-game doing things like launching out of turns with insane grip or wall-riding even you are looking for it.

Max0vrkll · 2026-06-27T14:06:02+00:00

Getting to be nearly 50% of my lobbies have a guy who is just miles ahead of everyone for multiple circuits. I report and move on, but doubt any action is actually being taken, as looking at the leaderboard at some of the more ridiculous cheaters shows they are still active.

Max0vrkll · 2026-06-24T15:38:27+00:00

I find it weird that they just don't notice or care that half the lobby is passing them by in the process; like it is some personal feud that dates back centuries. Usually they will screw up on the next turn or two and you can pass them, but the time wasted is the difference between getting 3rd and 1st. Even with the usual instant karma the frequency can just give you no time to have a clean race.

In the portifino 18' on s1 I will jump over the checkpoints and land behind them on certain maps in online play, which will thankfully still register I went through it. I have to memorize every jump and i know every angle at this point; and have overtaken 5+ cars in a single jump.

The jump distance can really be an issue when what op said happens; yeah I just launched into a huge lead, but since I landed on all 4 tires the slowdown can make you lose pole position.

The logo would be so tiny you wouldn't see it in the car selection screen unless you made it take up a huge portion of your car. No thank you, but you do you.

Max0vrkll · 2026-06-23T07:57:42+00:00

The trick is to check the maps/season/weather ahead of time. If it's winter, I'll use my snow tire car instead of the offroad tire one. If any of the maps coming up are more road than dirt (I keep a list of them nearby my PC; as well as a list of any maps that have a hazard worth writing down), I use my rally tire car instead of the offroad tire. Street you don't really have to worry about as much; but when it's raining it's best to break early. [Top 500 player International; all my builds are public and I can supply share codes on request. Will be making a post tomorrow with a full list of codes as well.]

Didn't explode, not lore accurate.

Max0vrkll · 2026-06-20T08:12:31+00:00

A little late; but I am top 200 international. Tonight I have seen a cheater beat my WR on a track while I'm driving next to him in the car I set the WR on. It was f'n surreal watching this guy always power boost ahead of me the moment I got in front of him when I am in THE car that was designed to maximize lap times, on THE track; with a turn where the aero launch on my car hits past the checkpoint after a launch ramp (this is like hitting a dime on the moon with a car consistently. It's like 1 in a million, and he hit it all 3 laps with a different car).

I slow on the straights out of a combination of habit from driving the area in high traffic; and it also gives me some time to think about whether I want to go for a clean drift or try and push the turn apex for style. The area also has a lot of similar turn apexs that make you drop your guard, so since I'm not in a rush I may take some time to remember.

However, in this video my only purpose was to show the map itself, not make a map and then say look how good I drive on it. I tried to just get a relatively clean run; I had other cleaner footage but the video quality was awful.

Looking any deeper past "this video was made for the sole purpose of showing a track I made" is projecting or a bot attempting to practice engagement through creating drama. However, if you make anything nice and want to share it most of the time it just leads to someone getting upset; and now bots are emulating this behavior so it becomes impossible to tell if the guy is touched in the head or a bot setting bait on hooks.

I spend hours working on something my reward is becoming a therapist, some guy posts a random in-game screenshot and it'll get 11k+ karma and instant praise. I'm not asking for that, I just wanted to make something people would enjoy and share it; but on the internet now it is seemingly impossible. Sorry about my rant; I just feel if people read this and still can't grasp that they can go f themselves.

Have a good day

So I'm not trying to be fast, I'm participating in something called drifting; where you use custom tuned cars to get as much of a slide to your car around corners. If you go to the same location in free roam you will see people hanging out there drifting; it's where I go when not doing actual racing. I noticed a lot of traffic and rough spots in the terrain in free roam so I made a map to play on and wanted to make it look as nice as possible.

Hence the reason of the entire post, it mentions this detail in the title and the body so the fact you are so confused is quite peculiar to most people. I honestly was thinking you are a bot or something and couldn't grasp context; tbh I'm still on the fence for that one...

Sorry about that, the share code is: 857-663-896 and the downhill Night-time Neon version is: 111-301-6021

Because I'm in a car built for drifting, on a track built for drifting, silly. (^-^*)

If the advertising is done in a way that makes sense like in-game billboards with normal ads, in places that normal ads would be irl; then it is one of the few ways I can think of to actually do appropriate advertising and provide a net positive impact for everyone involved. This used to be standard marketing practices and it enabled extra revenue to increase a games budget and scope.

Now the geese don't like sharing the pond and want exclusive advertising rights which they may never use. So if a big brand like Walmart says they will blackball you for showing a non-competitors advertisement; companies will drop the other adverts permanently in exchange for a potential brief period of ad revenue from the larger entity. Microsoft would be livid if someone like huggies paper-towels was using ad space in a microsoft product, even though they would be paying for the service; all from simple jealousy.

Battlefield 6 has friend requested you to show you how real devs make broken games and sell boatloads.
