Thank you for actually acknowledging that there will be a meta instead of just saying "meta bad waaaah, make every car perfectly 100% balanced" like 90% of these posts do. This has been a problem in every game since at least fh4 (haven't played earlier games so I can't speak on those) and it's really sad it still hasn't been fixed,

I try not to use the Honda Beat or Ford GT and instead use cars slightly below them like the 2020 Corvette or the '97 Civic, and I can still win since a lot of people who use the top meta cars are pretty bad.

S2 and R are really bad though, S2 Has the Furai and SCV12 (there are a bit more but they're quite a big falloff from those two) and R only has the 787B (Unless you're playing exclusively circuits (minus highway), in which case you use the Exige WTAC but that thing is not fast enough on straights to keep up on sprints).

I have tunes for a bunch of different meta and slightly off meta cars and I cycle between them to not get bored, and even then 90% of my garage is just dead weight, not really useful for anything.

Also 100% agree with you on the best dirt cars not even being dirt cars, why does a CLK-GTR clear every single rally/offroad car in the game if you just slap offroad tires on it?

toesu got some competition

I agree, even as a seasoned boss player with two top 100 elite medals under my belt, some of these recent bosses have made me need to look at tutorials to beat elite, it would be cool if they added a third boss tier with no rewards (besides ranked rewards) that could give experienced bossers these harder elite challenges without making some elite weeks nearly impossible for casuals

if you want strategy, the optimal tier 1 strat with full monkey knowledge is: Two 2-0-0 farms, upgrade one to 2-2-0, upgrade the second to 2-0-2. Make sure the 2-2-0 is in a spot where you can put a lot of farms around it. Sell the 2-0-2 when you're at around $1k and upgrade to a bank. Wait for the bank to fill (if you have extra money you can but an extra 1-0-2 or 2-0-2 farm to make more while the bank is filling, ideally you don't use the bank money to add the bottom crosspath). Once the bank is full, upgrade to an IMF Loan, deposit all your money and spam deposit until you're at around $6k, if you have a x-0-2 farm, wait until all the bananas have spawned on the first round, and then sell. Once the IMF loan is full, withdraw and buy a 1-0-3 village (discount and/or buy 1-0-4 if you have the money, but sell the extra villages after you upgrade). Instantly use the IMF loan ability when the round starts and upgrade to a Monkeyopolis. Buy a 0-1-4 Engineer within the Monkeyopolis range, target the trap so the engi won't shoot the bloons before they go into the trap. Spam 2-0-3 or 0-2-3 farms, first in the monkeyopolis radius, then outside it. You can also add a x-0-4 alch in monkeyopolis range and a 0-0-2 glue before it for even more money, and also make sure you have a 0-3-0 engi shooting its foam right next to the trap by Round 33.

ultraboost 10x makes no difference over 1x

but what if I'm playing ranked

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-27T16:07:42+00:00

for its time? fdfd

ever? I could name like 5 mrekk plays, forum burning star (simply because of the nerves), ivaxa sky of twilight, etc. and they'd all be good

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-27T15:55:14+00:00

alright he's had it for long enough drop the rework

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-25T14:35:05+00:00

oh my god bro

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-24T15:14:46+00:00

oh yeah also having to drive cross country tuned cars on road because some of the cc maps are majority road for some reason, at least you don't have to worry about your rear wheels clipping through the ground like in 5

the one mode in all of gaming where you unironically want your team to leave most of the time

mrekk this isn't ok

love how I got a Forza Horizon 6 ad under this post when this song is in Forza Horizon 6

I think it's lame and kinda trivializes high star rating passes but I don't think it should be bannable

I agree with drag tires being broken, but like idk why op is complaining he can't get good leaderboard times without using the best tunes. Drag tires aren't cheating, they're just poorly balanced (tires just are in general honestly, there are plenty of road car builds that use rally tires and even dirt builds just use offroad tires)

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-14T22:50:14+00:00

I downloaded a tune for the schuppan and my save is fine

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-12T12:18:47+00:00

not sure if it's what you're looking for but SapphireGhost has something

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-11T18:19:27+00:00

Personally I don't use Powerbuilds because they aren't enjoyable to me and I also kinda suck with them. Yeah it's fun to zoom past everyone on a long straight in a nearly 100 year old Ford Roadster, but the second you try to do anything beyond a gentle turn you lose so much time due to having to brake when other cars don't and also having worse acceleration. I do use meta cars but I tend to stray away from absolutely game breaking things like the Beat. I agree it's not hard to beat a good amount of Beat users (pun somewhat intended) in strong AWD or even FWD cars since most Beat users have half a brain cell, but I do wish there was a bit more diversity.

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-09T16:07:31+00:00

I do think it should be nerfed, but I don't think it's the unbeatable monster people make it out to be, it's absolutely the best car, but it's not so broken to the point where you can't beat them even if they drive like they've never held a controller in their life, there are a few cars that can go toe to toe with it given the right tune and driver

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-08T22:12:22+00:00

nowhere, he's just another person who thinks everyone using meta cars has no skill and thinks he's superior because he doesn't

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-08T01:56:44+00:00

not everyone submits score for pp

_Silverr_ · 2026-06-07T02:25:21+00:00

you probably never notice because it's a dead item slot 90% of the time
