At pmall two weeks ago I swear this guy (who lost both races anyway) picked Osaka first, then Yoko 2nd.
I pick 760 and 820
He picks 720 and 780
Third race, I sit and wait, and he doesn't choose his hp, and at the last possible second, he flips the wheel to go 20 lower than me.
What's with these people? Are they THAT bad? Why can't everyone just match HP settings.
I won the races anyway but jesus, it's freaking annoying. I made fun of him and I think he noticed, but I doubt that'd stop him from doing it more...
Can people like just pick the same HP settings in boost ON matches!? It's freaking BOOST ON for chrissakes, why do you need a handling advantage with boost!?!?
Some guy tried telling me "780 is the best for Yoko" I told him straight up "because you're a F**King scrub and it's boost on, race boost off and tell me 780 is the best for Yoko".
Then Abyss told me that 800 was the best, I felt like saying the same thing to him, but I refrained.
Battling isn't fun when people start abusing game mechanics like this, it's ridiculous.

Guaranteed, none of these people can race boost off, and they never do anyway, probably with good reason.

No, but it's fun to say I am to get a reaction out of you  Darthchilli clearly can't see a joke or sarcasm when they're used. sway: a scrub, to me, is someone who thinks or acts like they know stuff when they're really new/really really bad. AC101: different HP settings are fine in battle, I have no qualms with that. We do 820HP EVERYTHING when we battle at pmall (the regulars, me, bennz, d***b, etc.) but at least we're on the same HP settings so it's fair. I mean, if we do 820 HP hakone, select, and then somebody goes to like 740/760, that's when it starts getting stupid. This post has been edited by MaxX on May 19 2008, 08:11 AM

It's just with lower HP:
1) when u ram the other car with a higher HP, u lose speed slower than the other car 2) u get better handling and thus you can get away easier in terms in "unforeseeable events" by choosing a different line only a lower HP could do without off gas or brake etc
And if u are a good blocker, 740HP blocking three 800-820 in yoko all the way is not hard.

It's exploiting game mechanics for your benefit.
Don't be a pussy and look for cheap advantages. I don't care what HP people want to play at, we could do 600 or 820, I really don't care, I just want everyone to play with the same settings to make it fair. |
well since its not a bug, its not that u can't do the same...advantage is an advantage, from HP, boost, rims, cars etc
and if you don't want to exploit the game mechanics but still want to play some nice boost on matches:
u can counter by just stepping on the before they see your HP or just wait at the last second as well...(or u can just let them choose "day" or "night" first so then they get to the screen faster than u and just F**King stare at them LOL)
hope that helps...
