Since Studio 397 took over, the sim has gone from mediocre to superb, I bought lifetime membership at the outset hoping it would get better but since they took over it far exceeds my expectations

Should I pirate GTA V for the hektik skidz servers? What game should I download if I want a good cruising game but also some racing? GTA seems to have a nice balance. >Exempt from this list are the few I've played >NFSU2, NFSMW, NFSMW2012, Burnout Paradise, TDU2.
Jonathan Brown
If you want to play gtav to race, drift and cruise why not just get FH3
Cooper Jones
>Should I pirate GTA V for the hektik skidz servers? if theres some kind of mod that changes the car physics and adds places to drive then yeah
Kayden Russell
Because I'm a piratefag and FH3 stinks without the online elements. Hell I don't recall the DRM has been cracked yet, GTA V, IV and SA all have multiplayer mods that have nothing to do with Rocksterino.
I don't care if someone pirates but jesus christ, how pathetic are you if you make downloading video games into some sort of ideology that denies yourself something you want
That looks beyond horrible. It's obvious there's no actual drifting going on, the cars literally accelerate and break diagonally instead of at the wheels
Justin Richardson
s-shut up user ;_; its all I have. I blew it all on this stupid PC.
Henry Hernandez
i used to play competitive gtav racing (no, really) and i tried out the whole fivem drifting thing and it's basically just that they make the grip for each tire so low that you don't have any need whatsoever to control your car since no matter what you do your rear wheels are going to break traction it's pretty dull
Adrian Hernandez
>competitive gtav racing Sounds like competitive farmville
Landon Butler
Redpill me on Gravel. It looks like how I wanted the big off-road races on Forza Horizon to be, so how do I avoid being interested? I've already reminded myself it's being made by Milestone, what else can I do?
Jaxon Cruz
get an obscure waifu that requires a lot of time to find/aquire pictures of
Eli Parker
It's actually surprisingly enjoyable, the physics are just hard enough that getting a clean line really matters and you can disable the mario kart shit so that it's purely whoever can drive better winning. Watch a video of it sometime, it is pretty intense when done right.
Kevin Cook
Sounds like trackmania but worse
Adrian Cruz
>FH3 stinks without the online elements see thats where youre wrong. most people cant drive worth shit and you can drift in the parking lot offline without rap on an open mic and the tards in r35s thinking they understand drifting
>so that it's purely whoever can drive better winning >flicking the stick effectively give extra traction >kerbs make you go faster >purely who can drive better no.
Jeremiah Jackson
Trackmania's fun because you're going super fast and trying to traverse a ridiculous joke of a course that's trying to kill you as much as possible, GTA's stunts DLC doesn't get close to that level of fun imho Those are things that everyone involved can do, it's by no means a realistic experience but it's not unfairly stacked with rng in modernity now that people have enough props to block off lamp posts and all. The only real big shame is that Rockstar keeps fucking the car classes up so I wouldn't really want to play it anymore, the game's not worth 70 gigs of hard drive space.
Kevin Campbell
everything you listed sounds like things better drivers would do to win
Landon Smith
>so that it's purely whoever can drive better winning >flicking the stick effectively give extra traction >kerbs make you go faster >purely who can drive better wtf i hate racing games
Juan Lee
lol look at this forzababy having a meltdown
Anthony Bennett
>the game's not worth 70 gigs of hard drive space. hasnt been for a while with rockstars jewry
>exploiting issues in a game make you a better driver nah.
gta isnt a racing game
@17573383 (You)
Ryan Edwards
well by that logic forza horizon 3 isnt a racing game it just has racing events you can partake in, just like gta5 does. and clearly theyre better drivers if they take advantage of everything the game has to offer.
Chase Torres
>exploiting issues in a game make you a better driver Sure, not every racing game is going to be an accurate representation of reality and using the tools the game intentionally or unintentionally gives you to win is fair play. At the core of it all, GTA racing is fun for the same reason that people like those tourist servers on AC - it's a low-stakes opportunity to get wheel-to-wheel time and that's fun as hell regardless of whether you're playing a high-fidelity sim or a silly arcade game.
Blake Jones
youre right, FH3 isnt a racing game.
Wyatt Smith
but it is a racing game because it has racing in it like gta5 does
Julian Young
>whats your fave racing game bro ghost recon wildlands :)
are you mentally deficient or do you not understand what a racing game is?
>At the core of it all, GTA racing is fun for the same reason that people like those tourist servers on AC- im not debating that. im not even saying its unfair, i personally consider it an exploit and dont use it but if someone wants to use it its up to them. i just dont think it makes them a better driver
Xavier Brown
yeah a racing game is a game with racing in it. the devs of both horizon 3 and gta5 both put in an effort to include organized racing as a large part of their game so i'd say they are racing games. >i personally consider it an exploit and dont use it but if someone wants to use it its up to them. i just dont think it makes them a better driver oh lol youre a moral high ground loser who will never get good so you do some mental gymnastics and pretend everything youre unable to do is an exploit
James Smith
In Colin Mcrae 2005 you can make wildly big shortcuts on tracks, cutting off up to 3 seconds. People hosting servers would kick you for not taking a clean racing line. Is it just me or this this logic retarded? The game ceases to be a pure rally game because you have memorized every inch of the track at what point does the cutting begin and end? the navigator even tells you to cut
Joshua Evans
New wheel user here, what should I set my steering lock to? atm I have it at 540
Jace Gray
>will never get good so you do some mental gymnastics and pretend everything youre unable to do is an exploit too bad im good at everything short of dark souls bitch boi stay rustled
also is using back on track in the crew to cut the track legitimate just because the game allows it
Benjamin Young
I use 540 for everything but certain oval shit
Anthony Wright
You look at how good MXGP3 turned out to be and then get hyped
Austin Baker
Wassup niggers Who finna get rekt by me in da foza horizen 3 awction hawse? Aw yeee you bitches is broke We sum big balla ass niggas 100 laps in goliath ass niggas Run out of gas n still finna smack dat ass ass niggas Was good, was poppin Cash me at da awction house Bet Ill whoop yo ass
Lucas Murphy
That description fits pretty well. It's still fun though, just not as good as Trackmania.
Dominic James
Every aspect of GTA V can be described like that. Jack of all trades, master of none.
Jackson Campbell
imho the long races are the coolest and one of the best things about TDU/The Crew. How you can have an hour long race that never uses the same path twice. I loved doing the faction races in TC because you could literally be paid to cruise for 4 hours.
Brayden Edwards
are all racists in /ovg/ races really good or are the top few aliens and the rest average lads?
Ayden Adams
>got a job interview at this simualtor venue where they triple screens, fanatec bases and rims, hydraulic brakes and motion rigs using iRacing w-wish me luck lads, let's hope my ovg experience will help me
Grayson Hernandez
i bet your ovg experience will just make you go >iracing when the software is mentioned
Adam Green
all the fast people have been chased out. Now the fast ones are those who used to be mediocre in comparison
Gabriel Rogers
aliens realized that instead of racing in series hosted on a mongolian cave painting board and winning imaginary internet pringles they could earn actual money in serious leagues and/or real world racing
Michael Lewis

Joseph Lopez
Northamptonshire in the UK Kek, I said in my resume that I have "extensive experience using the iRacing Motorsports simulator software" when I've really used it just for the last month or so

Noice, there must be quite a few of us ovg nerds within a couple of hours radius of northants so if you get the job, get us round at some point
Alright fags, today is the final race of OVGT6 Bring Your Own Shidbox at the Nurburgring Nordschleife. Lobby will be up in an hour or two, and a reminder the fun race is going to be a one lap shootout in the premium miada
Also, it seems people were bummed about landbarges not being the in the running for the next series. So we're going to have one last final vote to decide strawpoll.me/13496947 Poll is going to close when the shidbox race ends. Then what ever is decided to be the next series will start after a week break.
Matthew Fisher
This one sounds like it's going for the BG4T audience, which considering the game has all the simulation value for a coin-op racer...
I found this shit on YouTube and it depressed me knowing that we'll never get a Midnight Club or Burnout in the foreseeable future because both of their parents companies decided to absorb them into a different game. GTA absorbed Midnight Club and Need for Speed absorbed Burnout. I'm sad senpai.
Andrew Butler
SJ on suicide watch
Caleb Adams
PYTBOJ
Cameron Smith
that's quite cool imo
isn't he already on literal suicide watch?
John Green
Doc timer says the race is in 4h by the way. Maybe it's just the mobile app being retarded.
Tyler Morales
Didn't realise the GT6 series was on, busy playing other shit to participate. Also, if you aren't voting for Civics then you're a fucking pleb that wants another series where we get the eventual "what defines a landbarge?" argument as someone blatantly cheats.
Nathaniel Cook
Club lobby is up lads
just refresh. works on my machine™
well if landbarges are picked i think we could come up with guidelines and I'm going to try to do the bop based on lap times rather than the dumb PP system. I don't know how well it's going to work but we'll see.
Caleb Morales
Weight is over 1600 kg and it has more than 4 doors.
Honestly too tired to bother with the nurburgring. I would have been good earlier but one-offs race ruin the schedule.
John Rodriguez
>tfw improving at pretend race cars slowly shaving time off the lap feels bretty gud
Caleb Lewis
>45 player is the limit >45 players was also the limit for rf1 coincidence?
Henry Clark
>buy WRC 4 >load up a quick race to make sure it works >"holy shit, these car models are really good!" >begin driving >"holy shit, why do the rear wheels have a literal mind of their own?" WRC 2 was so good as well, how did they fuck it up this bad?
Carter Cox
That would confirm some shady Shadow Government conspiracy but we had more than 45 players in some /ovgt3/ races
Cooper Evans
oh no it's an unreal engine 4 game it has nothing to do with rfactor
Jose Brown
how is your car control coming along? rally and hooning made me quite a bit faster in gt3
Isaac Allen
slowly learning weight shift control. I think I still get on the power too late in corner exits. I've also fiddled around with other cars in the gt3 and gt2 classes. I've really started to like the ferraris because you can throw them into corners really hard I feel.
Carter Ross
GT6 seems to have hung so I'll say it here, great race guys. Even if it was a bit hectic at the end.
Owen Bell
>GT is perpetually loading Did HighwayStar get really mad about crashing in the last 10 seconds, or is my game just bugged?
Easton Ross
>BTFO everyone so hard my PS3 refuses to return me to the lobby ebin
Joshua James
>the same devs that made this slow, broken mess expect you to buy a PS4 for £300 and a Prologue for £50 dunno about GT Sport, lads.
Lucas Brooks
Didn't even get to cross the finish line :c
Matthew Carter
im in the lobby. works on my machine™. But great racing lads. Rain was a bigger meme than i thought it would be but it was still fun.
Owen Ramirez
Upload the replay somewhere pls. I wanna watch the carnage in the rain over and over and over again.
Jason Miller
And now that BYOSB S2 is over, gg to blackdog, series winner. ill get you a pringle or something
And with that, the poll for next series closes and it looks like Landbarges and Civics tied. honestly what do you lads think about doing both series alternating each week or something?
Jaxson Fisher
A Civic series would be a lot easier to regulate and keep fair, like Miatas.
