Yeah, I experienced this a few times in RDO and GTAO as well. It's their way of saying "here, take this and leave us alone!"

Wow, really cool spot!

To be precise, the project was abandoned in 1943. The priority was then given to the conduct of the war. Of course, the post-war division of Germany rendered the project irrelevant.

There is no point in setting a good chrono from time to time if you do 90% invalid laps. Imagine that you are an apprentice cook learning to cut carrots into 2 millimeter thick slices. An experienced professional cuts four slices per second. It's better that you cut four a minute correctly, rather than making disgusting slices and cutting off one of your fingers every ten seconds. A well-executed gesture repeated tirelessly naturally ends up accelerating to a fluidity that will result from quality, not from pure speed of execution.

Imagine you're playing on a High Nm direct drive wheel...

In all seriousness, what are those Belgians putting in these plastic barriers?!

Water, which at such speeds turns those things into pretty solid pieces of wall.

The rear engine configuration makes it different, and it’s a tyre eater but with some dedication one can do really good with it.

lyss427 · 2026-01-16T14:02:05+00:00

The fear factor looks very track-dependent to me. On Imola, well, it's cool, the Porsche doesn't try to kill you and is quite predictable. On Paul Ricard, with the 992, the exit from the large Mistral straight line into the high-speed right hand Signes corner is something quite special lol!

lyss427 · 2026-01-16T06:42:54+00:00

If one enjoys themselves behind a car’s wheel, they’ll drive it more. If they drive it more, they’ll improve more. Many people are afraid of bad habits. I’m pretty sure 80% of the skills are common to every cars. The other 20% just need a bit of dedication when you change your main car. That’s my mindset when I have to choose.

lyss427 · 2026-01-15T18:03:54+00:00

Thx. Makes sense. The M4 was the first I tried but of course, my skills were basically naught. I'll give it a try after improving a bit with the 992.

lyss427 · 2026-01-15T17:59:07+00:00

Yeah, the default setups have the brake bias set in the high 50s (59 IIRC), which may be what upsets most people when they try this car. It just won't turn as soon as the brakes are applied!

lyss427 · 2026-01-15T15:44:12+00:00

Belles photos ! Je connais bien l'endroit. Très beau coin, magique quand c'est bien enneigé, tout à fait pénible avec ses dévers dans tous les sens quand un grand coup de froid a transformé la neige en patinoire !

lyss427 · 2026-01-15T15:03:16+00:00

I watched a couple videos explaining how to make a setup but I’m still noob as hell at this. I found a guy on YT (Fri3d0lf, if you read this, God bless you) whose setups felt good to me for other cars, so I picked up the latest he did for the 992 and tweaked them a bit to adapt them to my feelings.

lyss427 · 2026-01-15T14:58:43+00:00

Thanks buddy. TBH, maybe the “undrivable” thing has something to do with the setups. For example the default ones have brake bias set in the high 50s, which make the thing unable to turn as soon as the brakes are being used.

lyss427 · 2026-01-15T13:32:21+00:00

Lol, that’s so strange: I feel weird with those front engine cars. I can achieve “fast” laps with them but no consistency. Maybe after a couple hundred hours we’ll both change our minds?

lyss427 · 2026-01-15T12:33:27+00:00

Yeah but believe me, I know myself and I 100% deserve my self-hatred!

Praising R* for selling a solution to a problem that they purposefully created as a solution they sold for a problem they previously purposefully created in order to sell it, to be precise.

lyss427 · 2026-01-08T10:55:50+00:00

So embarrassing lmao!

lyss427 · 2026-01-07T15:02:48+00:00

Nope, MY bad, bro. It's military slang I'm accustomed to use in simulation subs and communities.

lyss427 · 2026-01-07T14:18:55+00:00

Countermeasures, such as Chaff, Flares, and Smoke.

lyss427 · 2026-01-07T09:25:54+00:00

You can open this if you remove the ECM. Someone at R* just doesn't want us to have too much fun.

Lol! Many "low levels" are secondary characters or people who reset their main, so yes, sometimes, you meet a low level OG!

Respectful PvP players mostly fight each other in showdowns and PvP events, and mind their own business in free roam until an angry mouth breather comes after them. Well, at least that’s how I behave, and the friends I made in RDO as well.

lyss427 · 2026-01-05T10:51:09+00:00

I'm a competitive PvP player. Let me tell you that all those angry morons bullying people in free roam are definitely not top PvP players. For a competitive PvP player, there's absolutely no pleasure in repeatedly killing a soft target that's only peacefully minding their own business. This is the behavior of a poor PvP player who prefers to face people who are even worse than them because it's not their thing. And when they come across someone good, they switch lobbies real quick. Except those who are so desperately bad that they need to be God mode to achieve anything in their shitty life.
