Did someone wrote get a room already?

Get a cat then you can join the cult

[stark crown]

Here’s my all 3 for catnip !!!! The younger one doesn’t like mobile pointed at him so less photos again , ignore audio !

[sharp carbon]

I used to give them catnip too but they started acting really crazy and I stopped they became junkies 😂😂😂😂😂

[stark crown]

once every 2 weeks... they get high forabout an hour.. just like us winding down over the weekend with good scotch !

but legendary and funny drunken brawls between all 3 for about anhour.... too funny

anyways, it was cattastic to catchup !!!!

goodnight all

[halcyon prism]

For a moment i was thiking i was in other discord, since all is filled whit cats lol

[quartz tendon]

[scarlet gyro]

Im getting too much pvp in s1

Maybe I should manipulate more my TS

[white fjord]

Max verstappen approved

[white fjord]

[compact vessel]

Does anyone know the pilot values for Mansell L2 and L3?

[wooden musk]

Why so many grievers lately. Pftt i wasn't even boosting.

[halcyon prism]

Why what about if he forget to pit and was talking whit some one? happen to me a least 3 times

[wooden musk]

Could be. I've got distracted many times too but I would do the courtesy of forfeiting if i know i couldn't play properly.

[proud prism]

Boa noite

[glacial charm]

I’ve never actually had a situation where someone has forfeited against me, only been swiped

[wooden musk]

It would give the same outcome. The rival turned AI won't use DRS but will still use ERS and auto pit. It will even use the same boosts even if the player has left the game.

[glacial charm]

so the other player could still lose to the bot. But if you forfeit it says that the other player lost.

probably a user case scenario though, since anyone forfeiting probably has a way lower team score and that’s the reason for their forfeit

[wooden musk]

Yup. You can always tell by watching their DRS in overview. It will stay blue all the way.

[glacial charm]

A player would forfeit and nick would still lose /j

[wooden musk]

Yeah and that's totally fine. Forfeiting is there to be used. Not leave your phone unattended or put wets in dry conditions. 😆

I know people do that to protest but what the heck am I suppose to do about it 😭

[balmy plover]

Just have to accept that there are kids playing this game

[vestal thunder]

The only problem is tvey are probably grown men between 35 and 55 😂

[median swallow]

Yo guys

Im new to game

Can i get a help at beginning

[gray salmon]

https://discord.com/channels/649307821388595211/1146703379901464636

[sinful crane]

last season or so, iirc, hutch implemented warning systems for those who were reported doing that thing. but those kinda kiddos are always failing to listen and change. they still keep doing that

[steel trench]

Report to support. Only way they will do something against them

[sinful crane]

age: 35-55
true age: 3.5-5.5😂

[steel trench]

You would never notice if someone forfeited against you. Bot takes over and finishes the race. You don't see any indication the guy forfeited

[rotund solar]

Said like a man who knows what it's like to be childish and in that age range 😉🤣

[vestal thunder]

https://tenor.com/view/good-morning-its-funny-because-its-true-the-big-bang-theory-sheldon-cooper-gif-15176644

With 4 kids i need to be a bit childish 😂

[rotund solar]

If you aren't 35 to 55 and still childish then something's wrong

[stone tinsel]

Hey everyone I'm new🙂

[steel trench]

I think @velvet hemlock would have something to say about it too

[lofty condor]

Letss goooo

[steel trench]

Oh wow

That will be quite popular

[lofty condor]

Yessirrr it will be out in an hour

I rmember asking for it as a suggestion

And they adds this im so happy

Sadly ill have a chemistry test during the release

[steel trench]

It says 10 for me

[lofty condor]

Me2

[steel trench]

Can wait to see your comments what is wrong with it 😂

[lofty condor]

[steel trench]

He is #🏎│real-f1-chat message

[balmy plover]

That movie is as entertaining as Monaco GP 🥱

[steel trench]

It wasn’t that bad, actually liked it

[cursive latch]

No way theyre adding it

are they adding the drivers aswell?

[steel trench]

Why would they add fictional drivers ?

[cursive latch]

Why wouldnt they? The F1 movie is a big part of this F1 year

[steel trench]

So you want more than 79 drivers we currently have ? What is wrong with you

[cursive latch]

Have them as a limited time event for fun

This isnt a competitive game so it wouldn’t hurt anyone

[steel trench]

Right 😂😂😂

[cursive latch]

Literally isn’t a competitive game

[steel trench]

Tell that to the guys spending 4-5 digit figures on the game

[cursive latch]

doesnt make it competitive does it

[steel trench]

Fine, define what is competitive for you then?

[cursive latch]

Short answer is prize money

Sure you got GP’s

But adding Joshua Pearce and Sonny Hayes would not mess with GP’s

[steel trench]

How many games would fit that category ?

[cursive latch]

What?

F1 clash is more of a chill game

Don’t get me wrong it requires tacticsl skill but not really any crazy skill

[steel trench]

So prize money and crazy skill

How many games would fall in that category?

[cursive latch]

alot of games

[steel trench]

Name one mobile game then

[cursive latch]

Clash Royale

also tactical skill

[steel trench]

It requires crazy skill ?

[cursive latch]

Is that a serious question?

[steel trench]

Just want to see the argument 😂

F1 clash already has 42+ drivers more than we need. Adding fictional drivers from a movie to further hurt the already bad collection economy is a bad idea. We need game fixes not more stuff people to pay for

[rotund solar]

My biggest hate for the game right now is race starts, and adding the extra 2 drivers to the grid next season means 26 cars converging in turn 1, it's going to be horrible.
I'd rather they fix things like this, back markers blocking and pit lane issues

[crystal sigil]

do we had new update?

[rotund solar]

@opal carbon fair play only asking 1 coin for this, given likely licencing fees and the demand for it, I expected hutch to charge similar to the F1 75 livery 👍🏻

[crystal sigil]

yess
I had it

[rotund solar]

Every duel rival today will have this livery 😂

[vapid forge]

Oh nice!!! Thanks Sam and team Hutch 🫡 😉

[steel trench]

Credit when it’s due, nice one @opal carbon and team

[bronze rapids]

wait so how do we get the APX livery?

[sharp carbon]

We even got a movie livery and I still don’t have my bottle

[hallow bay]

Woah, a collab? Congrats!! 🎉

[opal carbon]

It will appear in-game as a 1 coin offer #💬│f1-clash-general message

[split lion]

[spice tapir]

Could not agree more, fed up of having bot Verstappen on hards bossing 12 places at the start while I just crash into the car in front and stop

[split lion]

Even if Verstappen had wets while it's dry. Verstappen will still win because he is overpowerd 😅 .

[crimson sky]

#🎮│game-updates message

Can't even see the livery on the image 😂 what an awful angle to advertise it

[stark crown]

Completely agree .. first lap impact is worse with ai numbers .. while you fright out positions , lando and George , sometimes Leclerc ham too just build unassailable lead on hards ! You are only saved if AI Charles on hards or mediums gets ahead of AI lando , you can catch him .. otherwise impossible

And worse when you get stuck behind Antonelli AI .. he does good on lap 1 blocking like hell but easy to pass on L2 . But by then , front runners are away

[lofty condor]

@steel trench Chemistry test passed livery claimed , today is super

[thorn meteor]

Leave , as this game became boring

[clever briar]

Guy's I got 1 question, I am in series 3 and i have Lewis Hamilton series 9 level 2 those that mean i am P2W?

[opal carbon]

Thanks for continuing to be here though 👌

[lofty condor]

@opal carbon why is there no EAsports sponsor on the apxgp livery

@steel trench i noticed one already xd

[opal carbon]

The answer to that should be quite obvious 😉

[tall oak]

@opal carbon I heard a rumour that you're going to be acting in F1's Sequel , is this true?

If im being real i just wanted to say its missing

We're not allowed to use previous official team liveries unfortunately

But its actually looking fire ngl

Okx missing

[frigid apex]

Damn

[tall oak]

Did you get the Haas livery?

[lofty condor]

No

Sadly i got the merc 2022 biggest regret should have got the ferrari

[glass nova]

what's the next livery in pit pass?

[lofty condor]

I’d do anything for that libery

[oak mulch]

@opal carbon Now we’ve got the livery (fab btw), can you give us any teasers about the GP event to tie in with the movie launch? Will there be a new APX linked boost to go with adding Sonny and Joshua to the legends?

[rotund solar]

It would be handy timing, it launches on Apple TV on December 12th (hutch even promoted that) and it's the first weekend after the season ends, guess Hutch would be looking for a theme for that weekend 😬

[opal carbon]

We've been all trying to go big on the partnership but at present we're only able to provide the official livery

Not entirely ruling out potential further additions maybe at a later time

[velvet hemlock]

I totally agree with @rotund solar

[velvet hemlock]

If Brad Pitt becomes a legendary driver, I will never look at the legendary driver screen again

[velvet hemlock]

Give me libery or give me death ?

[white fjord]

Must be water

[oak mulch]

Tick tock…… 😂

[dry matrix]

Mmmm

Good livery

[fickle kraken]

Oooooo

[vital nimbus]

Tks hutch for the livery
Big W 🙏

[rotund solar]

Seeing his head on display in a tiny box would be ironic though

[velvet hemlock]

“What’s in the box… what’s in the box ?”

[rotund solar]

If anyone hasn't seen the movie, we've kind of killed it for them 🤣

[velvet hemlock]

True but if they haven’t seen it by now that’s really not our fault

[rotund solar]

If they haven't seen it then that in itself should be added as the 8th sin

I got a late fee from Blockbuster as I didn't return the cassette I watched it every day for 7 days despite only renting it for 1 night initially 🤣

[velvet hemlock]

Blockbuster…. Those were the days

[rotund solar]

Trying to explain that to a child these days or explain that Netflix used to post the DVD to your home and you couldn't watch it immediately

[velvet hemlock]

@opal carbon any chance we can get a Ludacris livery that say “move b___h get out the way “

[opal carbon]

Seems appropriate for how overtaking is at the moment 😏

[stark crown]

Any newer livery with aero car benifit ? Or a variant of no livery where you can be a bit more fast for getting rid of weight @opal carbon ?

[opal carbon]

No. Heavy, lead-based paint only for 2025

[stark crown]

Since 2026 regs will have electric power more , does this mean if your mobile battery is at 100% , you will have a faster car @opal carbon ?

[opal carbon]

Only if you stand in sunlight and have a decent breeze applied to the phone

[stark crown]

Have some insidious part like Ferrari fuel pumps which can use your mobile power and go fast ! 😂😂😂

[stark crown]

Solar and wind are too slow to charge 😂😂😂 you guys are not one of those eco warriors I presume ? 😂😂

[opal carbon]

You want green energy 🤷‍♂️

[stark crown]

So, can we expect you on Friday protests of just stop oil ? On M25 ?😂😂😂

[opal carbon]

You won't see me 😏

[stark crown]

Fun aside , apologies for anyone who finds this light banter offensive …

Everyone has their cause to work towards … and not trying to minimize your cause

[rotund solar]

I always find stopping hundreds of cars on the motorway which are then idling and emitting fumes whilst stationary, kind of ironic in the attempt to save the planet

[novel osprey]

No news about fixing wrong colour palette? Some (or all) cars looks worse than IRL

[opal carbon]

Some have already been fixed, others are in progress

[stark crown]

While I have you here @opal carbon , can I make a request ? Can you work your dark magic and not give me supernova / vortex ? I already have about 500 each in excess … and as a bonus , not give me lance stroll as well ? 😂

[opal carbon]

My dark magic only works on influencing matchmaking, sorry

[rotund solar]

And GPs

[novel osprey]

Do you have any list of them? No info in the patch notes, and some 80 bucks ones needs fixing too (i saw someone complain about ceramic one)

[swift musk]

Hello there! My team score is currently 330 and I'm looking for tips on how to win more races, since right now I lose around 20% of the races that I compete in.

[opal carbon]

Essentially all of them are being reviewed. It's not the liveries themselves that have changed but the lighting and materials system. Some liveries are impacted more than others. The recent updates have been focused around some required platform updates.

Maybe I should follow the example of @royal umbra and use Webber

Just waving hello to the player racing me at the moment in case they’re on here, nice of you to switch to wets and then pit again for wets just because you weren’t winning. It must really burn when you’ve got Mansell and using Handlebar boosts 🤭

[hexed loom]

it really did burn

using boosts & sandbagging is crazy

[opal carbon]

I sent you a DM regarding this

[fading falcon]

I don’t know where to ask this question, but why does my profile say that I’m running series 5&6, when I’m running in series 12?

[brittle wren]

@opal carbon What are the attributes of next week's track rotation?

[opal carbon]

You originally selected the Series 5 & 6 role in Discord and have not updated it in #👥│role-setup . It is done manually, it is not tied to your in-game progress

[opal carbon]

This will be shared closer to the time

[rotund solar]

@opal carbon I said this morning fair play on the 1 coin for the F1 movie livery, but talk about giving with one hand and taking away with the other, senna level 4 for the Qatar event to get 6 race points??

What a way to ruin yet another GP event! Honestly it's just a joke now

[fading falcon]

I’m sorry, but I don’t really understand. I can’t find where or how to change it. I’m fairly new to discord. How can I get more help with this?

@opal carbon I’ve sent you a DM

[opal carbon]

Go to the https://discord.com/channels/649307821388595211/710100815477604362 channel and use the reactions for any other Series option. This will apply it to your Discord profile

[opal carbon]

I've already had a discussion with the team around the setup. Have prompted to keep a sharp eye on the participation within Champions tier for the event. Considering all 3 components are required, few may be taking part in it while still racing in Champions.

[fading falcon]

I push series 12 and it just says copied to clipboard…Like what does that mean?

[opal carbon]

Tap here. Not the line above

[fathom nest]

Lol seems I am missing reading 😂 😂

[fading falcon]

Thanks for helping a stupid Swede

[opal carbon]

Not stupid, just new to Discord. There's a few aspects everyone learns along the way 😉

[fading falcon]

🙏🏻

[spice spruce]

For FREE ? Man that’s amazing

[opal carbon]

Technically.
1 Coin.
I'll compensate you if you need 😉

[rotund solar]

It's ruining it big time now with the legends.

And it's bad enough they are mandatory for the race points without offering a non-legend alternative, but can the team not just protect actual real F1 calendar GP weekends to the current line up only, and then save their legends events for non-F1 calendar events at least.

[spice spruce]

I have quite some spare ones, but would be funny for that coin to be received as a gift, just for the memes

[opal carbon]

It's only fair

[rotund solar]

Also, given Qatar only joined the calendar in 2021, none of the legends ever raced at the circuit so it makes zero sense to make it a "legendary" event

[dry matrix]

Amazing

Senor rob cab goes ahead becomes a sore loser in GP events and waste his time and my own

JUST END THE RACE FOR WHOEVR FINISHES SO THEN THEIR TIME ISNT WASTED

In someway FIX IT HUTCH. I lost THREE PLUS MINUTES OF TIME BECAUSE A PLAYER WANTED TO RUIN ONES DAY

“Oh there’s no system we can implement
“Bro it’s a game”
And it is a game. A toxic one, a pay to win one. And one where players either race or don’t and outright do nothing. Great job Hutch

[opal carbon]

Have you reported it to Support?

[dry matrix]

No. I made suggestions on this

[steel trench]

Until a fix is there - you have to report them for any actions to be taken

[dry matrix]

In some way I wanna see fairness

[steel trench]

No fairness without support intervention 😂 and for them to intervene (or repeat offenses) is to be notified

[opal carbon]

There's a "fix" in progress. The current step is to report it to Support

[fathom nest]

Put wets and leave 1 time, 30 min race ban…. Repeated offence 10 times … 1 day… and so on 😂 😂

[dry matrix]

Remind me of the command for the bot?

[fathom nest]

Which bot lol? Gaius gets creative when you use slangs 🤣 🤣

[dry matrix]

Please tell me I’m wrong, but I strongly feel they’re not going to reduce the frequency of this kind of sponsor task at GPs until the end of season. Chances are they might increase it?

also qatar isnt there on the map yeah?

Does using the APXGP Livery increases the chance of SC?

[coral leaf]

Mismo circuito con configuraciones invertidas, me quejo y hutch me dice que con tener mas defensa no basta, que hay mucha diferencia de calidad

[steel trench]

No surprise when he’s quite far behind there on drivers defense. Not rocket science

8 cornering advantage is barely anything. While 8 and 11 defense disadvantage. With 3:1 for drivers, that's basically 16 point performance advantage on the first driver and 25 on the second one. Which is pretty high. Moral of the story? TS isn't everything.

[lofty condor]

@opal carbon yo I saw that to the apxgp livery the team added the driver name x number of SH, wondering if they could add JP on the 2nd car?

And also on the liverys make the TV thing on the top of the car Green/yellow on the 2nd car just like irl it would be nice

[wooden musk]

Hayes 150 Race Start; 25 Tyre Management 😆

@stark crown I see you're playing challenger this week 😀

[fading plover]

Is it worth entering champion gp without Mansell?

[dim palm]

Absolutely. His stats aren’t great even with the 10% boost. Plus there won’t be many people with a lvl 4 mansell for it to make much difference in final round should you get there

[stark crown]

Oh yeah !! I guess it’s gonna be full of 400s on OR and FR !! This is gonna be fun !! Anything below 1000 over the weekend is waste ! But I really feel for people with non maxed accts

[stark crown]

From your message , it seems you have all these

[wooden musk]

Full 400s indeed! I just hope I don't get matched up even with your bot 😆

[glacial charm]

Below 50% is crazy

It’s not that bad .. lolz

You don't even need maxed assets to get 400 points

[eager perch]

My game matched me with eight opponents whose has 50 team scores higher than mine in a row, and I lost every single one of them. What's wrong with it

There are only one time I have more team scores than my opponent, I start at P10 then the game just give me a horrible start all the way down to P20

I am, my serie is serie 4, my team score is 570

[glacial charm]

A zero pointer isn’t happening, at least not by himself

think about it. He hasn’t actually DNFd this season on his own. You COULD argue that it was completely self inflicted in Canada, but it was still a collision with another car. He did his fair share of self-inflicted crashing when he crashed into that wall in Saudi qualifying

but I guess a zero pointer could also happen if there’s just a really bad qualifying

[balmy plover]

Median TS for s4 is 600

Are you using Bearman and Hadjar?

[outer gyro]

Guys is there any reward that is available on some sort of site or hidden way ??

I relly need some parts and smth

[eager perch]

I think the median is 575

[eager perch]

Bearman and Doohan

[eager perch]

That’s also can’t explains why my opponents are 590-630

[balmy plover]

Don't use doohan. He is not good at overtaking. Use hadjar

[balmy plover]

Well, you're expected to face opponents with 100TS higher once you reach higher series

[eager perch]

But he’s a lot better on other stats

[eager perch]

I reached T4 when my team scores are 490

[balmy plover]

It's up to you then. I gave you my advice for s4

[bleak root]

It's the same in all series, impossibile to play and have fun

[steel trench]

Focusing on TS is such a wonderful idea 😂

[balmy plover]

Which is why need to be smart with driver & car setup

[lofty condor]

@opal carbon pls add the Audi livery first next season ty

[opal carbon]

Well it generally does start with the worse performing teams first after all 😏

[steel trench]

Ferrari confirmed as pit pass 1 next year

[vapid forge]

You never know, Audi could jump in and be 1-2 every race 😉 not like the drivers will be inexperienced. Bottas and Perez are both talented drivers

[steel trench]

Ehm Bottas and Perez are driving for Audi

[vapid forge]

Yes, it’s already been confirmed

[steel trench]

Nope

[opal carbon]

Might want to double check that

[vapid forge]

Wait it now says Hulkenberg and Bortoleto. I know what’s happened there

Bottas and Perez are driving for Cadillac

[distant delta]

Arent they driving for cad?

[steel trench]

What happened is you confused Cadillac and Audi

[opal carbon]

Not sure what sources you've been using

[steel trench]

They are 😂 but that’s not Audi

[vapid forge]

Sorry @opal carbon and Qnyx, I mixed up the names. There’s 2 new teams 🤦‍♂️

[distant delta]

Cadillac - Bottas & Perez
Audi - Hulkenburg & Bortoleto

[opal carbon]

There's not 2 new teams.
There's 1 new team and one existing team rebranding

[median swallow]

umm...i dont

[vapid forge]

Yeah Kick Sauber are rebranding Audi 🤦‍♂️ 😫 what if Bortoleto and Hulkenberg are 1-2 every race 😏

[steel trench]

What if you didn’t skip math classes? I guess we would never know 😂

[vapid forge]

Mixing up team names isn’t math 😉 unless you are talking about football 😄

[opal carbon]

The chance isn't exactly zero but I defintiely wouldn't be putting money down for those results 😆

[vapid forge]

I hope Ferrari do better next season, cars are getting lighter again which could favour Lewis. Next season, we could see a few shocks 🤷‍♂️

I’ll put money down for a Lewis 8th title next season though 😄 😏 🫣

[steady obsidian]

Dont, better buy pit pass

[vapid forge]

Yes, Pit Pass would be much more value for money 😉

[lofty condor]

Letsss GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO but Sauber is good this year sadly

[opal carbon]

2nd to last is good 👍

[knotty sand]

@opal carbon how about we get some old liveres like the mp4/4 that 2008 mclaren or the w11 and ferrari f2004 livery in the future

[opal carbon]

#💬│f1-clash-general message

[knotty sand]

Damn thats unfortunate

[opal carbon]

There are SO many liveries that would be great to revive if it was an option

[knotty sand]

Yeah true

[last cedar]

@opal carbon Does anyone know what the next pit pass will be painted?

[opal carbon]

Yes, several people do

[last cedar]

Will Red Bull Racing be in the next pit pass?

[opal carbon]

You'll have to wait and see 😉

[last cedar]

Dude, you know how curious we Brazilians are about things.

Thank you very much for your reply.

[opal carbon]

There's only a few teams left so the chances are high

[stark crown]

Personally,, I don't get the fascination on liveries .... They don't have an impact on game mechanics and after a race or 2 , you even forget what you set ....

[last cedar]

Racing Bulls and Red Bull Racing haven't arrived yet, so the chances are very high.

[opal carbon]

I'm quite similar when it comes to games but that's not the case for everyone. Simply look at the many other titles where the livery/skin options are vast and some people really enjoy collecting and using them.

[stark crown]

Unless you do lower series and put in hards and want to watch cinematic view of cars going around !! 😂😂

Biggest clown f1 clash

[austere sable]

Hola

[brave yew]

En esta carrera hice una mala estrategia con Bearman, no lo paré por neumáticos nuevos, llegué a la meta con los neumáticos totalmente desgastados y el Bearman del rival, llego unos pocos centímetros atrás del mío, me pegué un susto y un alivio, esa carrera fue en Jeddah, casi me alcanza en la recta larga, pero menos mal gané pegué un respiro de alivio cuando crucé la línea de meta primero jajajaja 😂😂😂😂

Creo que una mejor estrategia hubiera sido en la primera parada poner blandos, daba dos vueltas con ellos y en la última ya poner medios

[glacial charm]

Hello back!

[vestal plank]

👋🏻

[stark crown]

clown tookdown photos but forgot posts !!!

[opal carbon]

It's posted anonymously to protect the Moderator status 😉

[stark crown]

i didnt know you were keeping an eye though !1!! dont take it personally, but glad not to look at your photo while looking at my stat screenshots .. feels somehow cheated out of achievement ... but relieved not to see your face in media section too much of same photo .. something like a placeholder card image on lazy loading of an app...🤣

on the down side, now its hard to search for all instances where he thinks he is clever and posts these stuff.. your face was dead giveaway ...

[opal carbon]

Sadly, or maybe it's a compliment, that they seem to have my picture readily available to use so often.

[stark crown]

bringing my social media investigative skills to the fore ...

[opal carbon]

But it's one of the problems with FB groups where just one person is the moderator. These posts clearly violate the groups own rules but can imagine any reports are simply ignored because of who the moderator is and the fact they're the one posting the messages.

[stark crown]

who will guard the guards .....

by the way @opal carbon , let us know if the prophetic message is spread , the call for followers to spend more money !!! if your revenue increases ,please do a legendary chest bonus to all players to share the happiness🙏

[steel trench]

It’s usually one guy posting them

[rough maple]

1 time he forgot to do it anonymously 🤣

[steel trench]

He sometimes does

[rough maple]

This week somebody shared his account as comment, not much later that post was gone

[stark crown]

anyways, someone let me know if he pulls these stunts again ..... he restored my pic but not @opal carbon 's face... so atleast something good came out of it ... i have no energy to follow his posts ... need to race and get more done...

[stark crown]

he pulled this before in September and now I can see his post is there but comments are gone !!!! can be searchable using media and just click my race count pic.... he even pulled out his own comment just restoring my media !!! i am not a facebook heavy user but is there a way to report the group as whole as it seems he is the moderator there and no other moderators seem interested to look at this behaviour ... or there is no one apart from him ? .. i donno about any of his alliance members if they want to chat with me here ? few times efore he did this i let it go but this seems to encourage him more ... sad to see adult behaviours need to be called out and enforced

[steady obsidian]

@summer granite maybe you?

[rough maple]

He is complaining several times a year. Just looked into a group and searched for his messages. To bad that I didn’t take a picture of his account, otherwise I could give you the team name

[stark crown]

or is it considered player harassment / doxing too ? someone taking a pic and posting it outside .. any recourse from hutch side for this ?

[rough maple]

Don’t know if they can do something!

[opal carbon]

You can report individual posts and groups to Facebook for various reasons, including harassment, but sadly I've found their actioning of any reports (even very serious ones) to be considerably lacking

Best possible suggestion is for people to leave the group. If people don't like the content or those managing it, remaining to be a member keeps it running. If enough people leave, engagement disappears

[stark crown]

sadly no one will do it as everyone wants drama .... 😂

[stark crown]

but atleast your pictures are out of there !!!!

it had your face in each row before ....😂

[opal carbon]

I'm surprised by that as a number of previous ones had been reported but nothing done about them.

Appears someone might be watching 👀

[stark crown]

or he himself took them down as beriefly my screenshots disappeared as well before they are back up ... easier to fight an individual than a corp representative !!!! maybe got scared

only 2 moderators for a group of 5000 people and i am surprised to see i am top contributor with 49 points....🤣

[opal carbon]

Essentially only 1 as it appears the Admin stopped engaging in 2022/2023

[thick hinge]

well ur not wrong i agree

[white fjord]

Do not spend your legacy points to improve him

[thick hinge]

i spent it on massa

[scarlet gyro]

It's me or bots are using boosts?

I was wondering this as well

[thick hinge]

nah ur not alone with that

Apart from the hidden boost ofc but I don’t think this is what we are talking about

[stark crown]

Oh I misunderstood then

[vapid forge]

People want Handlebar/do well this week 😅

[rough maple]

Think this one got enough handlebar now🤣

[vapid forge]

Not sure why people have gone all out for Mansell this week, there’s Senna required at Level 4 coming soon 🙈

[rough maple]

Think he is stuck in champs group🤣. Probably thinking this is the way to doing good with extra points

[vapid forge]

His fault for entering Champion too early, if he does well this GP his groups will just get tougher

[rough maple]

Only did champs this season!

[vapid forge]

That’s exactly what I said mate. Wonder how much they’ll spend to get Senna level 4 🤣 😅

[lofty condor]

I think they are gonna be p8 at the end of the season

[azure lance]

anyone know the next rotacion?

[fading falcon]

@opal carbon does hutch change the drivers stats once a season. Colapinto has higher states than Bortoleto and thier is no epic Hadjar?

Or Bearman

[stark crown]

this is better than mine although i got stroll maxed... only epic driver so far

[fading falcon]

I should explained my question, hadjar epic is series 2 or over and Bearman series 6 or over. But Colapinto is series 10 or over. That’s not applicable to reality. Do Hutch make any overall at the end of the season with the drivers?

[wooden musk]

"Have you maxed out epic Hadjar? Don't worry I still have more of it to give away!"

— Sentient CPU at Hutch

[wooden musk]

I think they based it on previous season. Colapinto and Lawson are not complete rookies while Hadjar, Bearman, Antonelli and Bortoletto are completely new. I know Bearman stood in one race for Sainz in Saudi but that's just one race.

[steel trench]

No. Only did a minor adjustment in the past with Norris (duh, British bias) and that was a few TM points more. Balance is set from the beginning of the season in May

Mid season rebalancing would be rather hard to pull off also - imagine you spent on Colapinto for example when he was good . Now all of a sudden that spending is made completely worthless. Not going to fly with many people

[paper lily]

I’ve heard 23 and 24 is pretty identical

[steel trench]

You might want to ask in #🙊│off-topic-and-memes

[paper lily]

Oh ok

[wooden musk]

Now that its near end of the season, the switch between Doohan and Colapinto is getting funnier because they're the only two drivers still without points 😆

[steel trench]

It’s clear why we have Colaspinto. He sells well

[fading falcon]

Should be named Crashapinto instead….😂

[steel trench]

Also works 😂

[sinful crane]

because the alpine is quite a dog of a car, in a number of races Colapinto showed his capability and beat Gasly as well, so not that bad

[wary shore]

Please remove boosts for the duel races..!🙂

[glacial charm]

do better lol

[wary shore]

My boosts saved for the next gp...🤌🧠

[glacial charm]

Yeah you can beat boosting players without boosts with enough skill

or just don’t play duels until sprints, which is what I do

[tribal harbor]

Ola

[wary shore]

Tyre, power, drivers all using i like a pro, but opponent using only boost power, wht you think...

[solar heart]

Cna my setup compete s11? Im planning go to s11 when pit pass end

[silent forge]

Imo no

[wary epoch]

Its going to be power unit series in S11 with new pit pass. So maybe its not the worst idea.

[vocal basin]

Hutch can i have Nigel thank you

[versed tartan]

This game is so good

I just started does anyone have any tips for me?

[scarlet gyro]

Why we don't have Lusail? I remember we had Hanoi and F1 didn't even race there

[gritty vine]

FOM likely forcing Hutch to stick with the current calendar

[wary epoch]

We raced in Hanoi and it was in calendar I believe. Maybe later their license changed, so they had to remove tracks not in current calendar. We also had nice France track, what was its name?

Paul Ricard

[steel trench]

And Sochi and Portimao

All were there though in the calendar. Qatar is just weird case, likely some licensing issues like they had with Monaco

[oak mulch]

Haven’t they changed the track since it first featured? So maybe the licensing issues to do with that? But basically yeah it’s just weird.

[vapid forge]

#1438862146715783330 Please help

[wary epoch]

Didnt play Portimao, but Sochi was good too

[fading falcon]

Right now F Sochi and that entire country.

[wary epoch]

So when war ends, its okay to race/play Sochi, right?

[fading falcon]

Yeah, and they have paid for the entire restoration for all the have destroyed including restoration for all people that have lost their life.

[steel trench]

Can we keep politics out of it ? Please ? Won’t end up good

[vapid forge]

Yep and now people won’t read my S11 help message 🙄

[drowsy helm]

Vietnam was dope

[fading falcon]

Okay, sorry. Just get triggered when I dual a Russian or see a Russian team inthe game. But I’m not gonna continue with politics. I’m from the west and not directly impacted, but I still stand strong in my beliefs in this matter. But I’ll leave it there.

[steel trench]

I fully understand and I’m on the same page too. However 99.99% of the time it’s starting fights (even in here) which quickly go out of control due to the sensitivity and passion of the guys.

Let’s go back to bashing the game and how bad it is usually

Yeah, I get it and will not continue. All Love

[outer fractal]

Series 3. Before I start spending more. Who would be the best drivers to choose ?

And should I focus upgrading the rarest parts on the Car ? Or are there particular that do better ?

[vapid forge]

S11 is a joke. I’ve played around 30 matches today, won about 5

I could just put on a load of boosts, I’ve 240 Cuppa, not wasting it though. I’m not Boosting

[steel trench]

L2p issues

[vapid forge]

You’ve got to be doing something wrong. My Cornering is 236 and I’m winning a little

[steel trench]

5 out of 30 is not a lot 😂

[vapid forge]

That’s why I said a little 😉

[verbal hull]

O.o

[scarlet gyro]

What do I need?

[tough osprey]

What’s wrong with the opponent selection?
Why is there such a big difference in points…
A person could change tires with their eyes closed and still win. It would be understandable if the difference was 5–10 points.
But a 50+ point gap is too much, even with these boosters, especially when you only have enough money left for 1–2 races in the duel.

[vapid forge]

You need to help me 😫

[scarlet gyro]

I rarely loose a S11 race but you gotta use a free boost atleast, downforce for Japan and Barcelona, Hex for Canada and Ballast for Monaco

[steel trench]

Hourly reminder that TS is not everything ...

"Zomg zomg 50 point difference, too much" 😄

[vapid forge]

I’m running out of all of them. Not Boosting. “You’ve got to take the pain in Duels to make the gain in GPs”.

[scarlet gyro]

are free boosts even useful in GPs

[vapid forge]

I know. I’m going the drivers that are suitable for the track stats

[steel trench]

1. Stop fixating on TS
2. Never get to the point that you have money only for 1-2 races in your highest series. ALWAYS keep AT LEAST 5-10 entry fees for a duel in your highest series. If you drop below that safety net - drop down
3. STOP FIXATING ON TS
4. Follow track stats - they help
5. STOP FIXATING ON TS
6. Oh and STOP FIXATING ON TS purely

[vapid forge]

Yes, especially for Junior, Challenger, Contender Q/OR, FR Contender you go all out

[scarlet gyro]

Use this setup

Maybe Fury instead for high qualy

[vapid forge]

I don’t get what you’re doing wrong. Your issue is you can’t or won’t manage PU. That’s the key in the game. Conserve on straights, push in corners, some corners where I can’t overtake (Monaco swimming pool) I go Medium to save PU so I can make most of the energy whilst I can overtake

[scarlet gyro]

He doesn't even need to manage PU, only using DRS on the right moment is enough

Especially with that big TS advantage

Can we see you setup and drivers?

[vapid forge]

Nick has much higher levels than me and I win more just from micromanaging

[steel trench]

It's not the setup, not the drivers and he can win. It's just a psychological border he reinforces all the time even when he's not doing bad

[scarlet gyro]

Try higher qualy, cornering tracks are harder

[vapid forge]

@scarlet gyro here’s what I’m using

[scarlet gyro]

I wouldnt use Aeroblade

[vapid forge]

XHale?

[scarlet gyro]

Yes

And gives more cornering, dunno about qualy

Use higher qualy it's the key for cornering tracks

Keep it then but don't use that boombox

What are u saving? Asset gamble?

Are u doing that with epics?

[vapid forge]

In fact, I use Aero Blade for the Qualifying. With XHale I start near the back then get stuck at the start and rival zooms off, not ideal for such Race Start needed tracks

[scarlet gyro]

We don't have race start in this rotation

[neat creek]

Hi

[scarlet gyro]

I think you gotta sacrifice a bit of cornering for qualy

[vapid forge]

You’d rather be starting near the front and have a chance of keeping with the rival than getting bogged down and be battling the slow AI

[scarlet gyro]

I think you need atleast one driver starting on the top10

[wary epoch]

I am in s12 with this account, but taking from there only good crates, skiping green crates playing duels in s11. This is my drivers and setup. Unboosted, my only harder race is Barcelona

[vapid forge]

I find that when I do high Qualifying. My drivers purposely get a bad start so they fall back anyways. If you go high Cornering, you’ll start far back and get stuck whilst your rival zooms off. The game seems to know everything you’re doing. Making it impossible to win unless you Boost! That’s what it wants, Boosts! It wants you to use premium Boosts just to win a Duel!

You’re not mate, bad starts happen to everyone, I think 😅

One issue for this S11 rotation is Handlebar has come out right on it, meaning people are making most of it as it’s mostly Defending and TM series

I got a few on Tuesday. I actually beat a rival at Suzuka with them using Handlebar and I used Downforce. Don’t even ask how I managed that!

Me too actually. I lose to a lot of bots too. I wish Hutch would give out more Boosts so we can enjoy races and not have to remove all breakables from us or forfeit 😄 (rage)

[lofty condor]

Ig this is pain

[lavish valley]

Hi guys

[steel trench]

Oh, that was unexpected

[vapid forge]

Time to try Contender 😉

[steel trench]

Why would I try contender though

[vapid forge]

Mansell is the requirement for this weeks Sponsor task, unless you are against Legendary Drivers

I would’ve done Contender but playing it safe with double Challenger

Would like Handlebar

[steel trench]

I can safely do champ too - and I did before getting him too. I still won’t use though

[vapid forge]

Maybe Champion would’ve been good option this GP with or without Mansell as there’ll be groups in there that won’t have him either so it could be like a normal GP

[steel trench]

You have much to learn, young padawan

[spice tapir]

Nope, you and most of us are in the same boat mate. The logic in this game is dead, what you do to experiment vs observation of races is counteracted immediately. Just watch every stat in your advantage become your curse and watch your rivals, on massively inferior stats boss the start and you crumb away unable to pass anything. Crowning the moment when you drs into the back of a back marker and stop for a coffee and doughnut. Repeat

Just ask support and get the best comedic response on the market btw

[safe grail]

Either I just raced against you or it was your ai😂

[vapid forge]

Was it “Drs KLM YT” or “Drs KLM F2P”?

[steel trench]

Why would you ask support for this though when you will get much better help here ?

[vapid forge]

I have to agree

[zealous vigil]

Thanks for a nothing again for S11.. I want Boombox for starting S11 😤😤🙃🙃

[vapid forge]

S11 is impossible right now

[zealous vigil]

Yes agree

[spice tapir]

Because you probably are support 😂

[steel trench]

I wouldn’t give you stupid advice though so that argument fails right there

[spice tapir]

You missed the whole post and responded to the anecdote. So what’s your advice…. Dear Yoda?

[steel trench]

I didn’t miss anything. Every time we have these complaints - many times justified, but not always.

You can’t expect to win absolutely everything. Every single one of us has to deal with bad starts and getting stuck behind a back marker. Learn how to deal with it as it isn’t something impossible.

[vernal sigil]

Couldn’t agree more tbh the amount of time that I have bad starts

[safe grail]

F2P

[spice tapir]

Cheers Yoda, hutch you are. I’m 7 seasons in. When you face such illogical stats, time and time again it’s not ‘dealing with being stuck behind a back marker’. It’s consistent, it’s not logical and watching >66% of races (not speculative but recorded stats) of bots with low race start stats out performing there is little your ‘advice’ can do to change that. It’s hardwired, premeditated and feels very much directed to spend to progress now. Unless you can unlock the seeming cheat code…..

[ripe raptor]

I’ve got boombox halfway to lvl5, and most of my drivers still lvl3💩 . Im getting boombox everywhere in sprints, but not a single s11 driver. Now I only need one extra hulk to lvl4. But not getting any🙃

[safe grail]

No boom box but level 2 leclerc and piastri only use leclerc

[scarlet gyro]

I hope a big compensation

Just activated my surge coin boost

[silent forge]

Server down

Lets get some proof for compensation tomorrow

[knotty mantle]

It never happens here so we never get compensation in NA 🫣🫠

I wish you all the best of luck in your GP this weekend.

any tips for beginners guys?

like which drivers to upgrade

and which parts to upgradefor eg, i have some parts which are of series 3 but they are upgraded so highly that the series 4 parts are very weak comparred to it, only 1 or 2 stats are better... so which should i chose?

[gray salmon]

Well got one for you: in both crates I got respectively 8 instinct and 8 warrior. No roulette for me today

[wide cloak]

Even worse
But they’re asking pay more money and we will give more rewards
And the rewards are way worse

[vapid forge]

They want you to spend but it’s bit of gamble sometimes as if you were to buy all the offers in the store for Mansell, you might not even receive him at the end

[wanton goblet]

@steel trench finally we meet in GP, at least my 2nd account, GL👌

I accidentally deleted my account yesterday, is there any way I can recover it?

[scarlet gyro]

Damn 47 people with max points in my group

I missed 1 pitstop at Monaco on Thursday, qualified with 103, I was the last player to qualify in my group 🥲

[soft meteor]

Need 1 card to get Mansell to 3 ,bought the 5 crate package and couldn’t even pull him once,you can go to hell

Yeah mine is struggling too. Azza is having troubles too 😆

[thin ermine]

Mine is down too

[gray salmon]

Me too

[charred hatch]

OK thanks guys 👍

[vapid forge]

Here we go. 3 hours of server outage

[charred hatch]

I should drive my events later 🤔😂😂😂👍

[vapid forge]

That’s what happened the last time when we had a 3 hour server outage. I was lucky to race that day as had busy afternoon. Thankfully, I’ve got 8 hours to race now so I can enjoy the fun 😏 😏

I’m back in

[charred hatch]

In the event is a server crash the worst Thing 🙈😂

I'll Drive it later 😉🤔👍

[vapid forge]

Mine is back but I’m going to play couple duels then have lunch first now, was going to race first but it’s probably not wise

[charred hatch]

Game works now. I'll drive duels like you now

[vapid forge]

A win is a win mate. This game is tough without Boosts. Last night on my F2P (S11) I was trying to complete the “Win 4 races against rivals in any Duel or GP Event race” and I used no Boosts and kept losing match after match. The match I put Downforce, I blasted off

Whenever I win in a difficult series, I don’t feel I’ve earned it because the rival/bot made a mistake to let me win 1 match before it gets harder again

Because then it’s back to losses

how do ppl in my (series 3) get ts bruh

[summer iron]

I like when the game disconnects in race 7 of the GP Saturday. Feels real good.

[knotty mantle]

At least you won’t have to worry about it on Sunday 😅

[summer iron]

Very true. 🤣

[steel trench]

The way you did bruh

[empty glacier]

vro

i thought this game was p2w😭

dey wont even let me buy the max lvl stuff

[limber jay]

Does pitting affect fastest lap?

[steel trench]

How ? Apart from aborting jt. The only place I know where you can potentially get a faster lap right after pitting is Canada

[limber jay]

I want to know if a fastest lap is right out of pits or starr finish line?

Like 3 scenarios.
I enter pits at end of lap
No pit
I exit pit to fastest lap

Which is ideal

[empty glacier]

yea

[steel trench]

People tend to go for red before the start finish line. You will not get a fastest lap in the lap following your pit stop, only on the one after

[limber jay]

Do you think the timer for fastest lap start at pit exit?

[limber jay]

Ideally a lap free from pit stop

Whn inside pits?

[steel trench]

Which would be the lap following your pit exit

[limber jay]

Oh I didn't know that. Is that true for all tracks?

[steel trench]

There isn’t a single rule. You said the one that is free from a pit stop. Ideally you want to run in clean air and that judgment when exactly is that moment is up to you.

Gtho with this begging, this isn’t the place 😂

[wary epoch]

This should be bannable 😂

[limber jay]

This GP which track would 8 attempt FL

Clean Air, soft tyres and right oit of pits

[gray salmon]

Quick question for GP. Speed track, I should go for supernova right? Even when all other stats are better?

[gray salmon]

Follow-up question: If I should use supernova, does that mean I should use X-hale over Aeroblade as well?

[halcyon prism]

that's depends on your track league and strategy, You are asking about this weekend gp ?

[steel trench]

I believe you misunderstood me there - I said the one after you exit the pit is usually a safe one. The only exit in - you would cross the start line inside and you would be slow

[limber jay]

So DRS straight in Barcelona

[gray salmon]

Yes. This is baku, and I do contender so I can use all parts I mentioned

[halcyon prism]

You had legendary drivers ?, Supernova
Fury
Power Lift
The Sabre
Quantum
Mach III

X hale are if you what to use DRs if not Power Lift can be a option, and risky a bit whit The dinamo , pending of you drivers line up. if you don't had legendary drivers don't risky whit Dinamo and use Fury instead

[gray salmon]

I don’t understand half of what you are saying. You are advising me to race baku without DRS? That is suïcide

[gray salmon]

And Sabre? That is gaining me 3 speed points, while reducing iver 50 other points

[halcyon prism]

X hale is overrated and depends of you driver line up if you don't had legendary drivers just use bortoleto and hamilton, again every car setups depends of your strategy. and drivers, if you copy and paste you opponent strategy and tires you barely gona won

[wary shore]

Can i make to final round...😔😑

[gray salmon]

Why is the setup depending on your drivers? I never heard that before

[ancient tundra]

difficult

[wary shore]

Sure..?😑

[sinful crane]

no don't use it. saber is so terrible. sacrificing 12 qualifying points just for 3 more speed, a detrimental trade off

[ancient tundra]

from this screen yes, but you dont told us a lot of informations, how many people are with 0 points etc, so from this screen yes, i can told you its difficult, you will finish around top40 if you are lucky

[gritty vine]

can see In some cases where a drivers OT stat may help to compensate for poor car Q stat

[ancient tundra]

in a lot of track, track position is fondamental
for example monaco, where you need to qualify in the first positions, and then with a defence boost you can no lose the position
if you start bottom 20 in baku also with drs will be difficult to reach the top position because the IA will run faster then you
so if you use a speed boost you can use a qualify setup and dont use X-hale
if you use a overtaking boost you could use x-hale bc will be more easy surpass

[wary shore]

Whats the want average points?

To final

[ancient tundra]

it depend of the difficulty of the group, its not the same for everyone
if you race a lot in the same division you will have a hard group
so i cant tell you from the poor info you told us

[wary shore]

Fine, btw i saved to boosts for the final rounds...😑

[ancient tundra]

i can tell you that in this event, for you division max point are 400
u have done 260

[halcyon prism]

is a trade of lose every singe corner, gain in the In straight matches, you win, the game pairs you with opponents depending on your TS and your settings, both with a 50-50 chance of winning with specific victory conditions. It's not that different from playing Challenger in League of Legends or playing chess. Logically, if you're not sure, use conservative settings and don't take risks.

[halcyon prism]

finally some one understand me

[wary shore]

No, its only 360 average...🙂

[ancient tundra]

no its 400 because the event will give you +3 points every race this week if you use vortex

[wary shore]

Ok, i see it has only 12h and, im now on 13...🤌

Potision

And this event has some new tracks i never played before, it so difficult...😑

[glacial charm]

safety cars should be disabled during GPs

[halcyon prism]

@ancient tundra thanks bro for help i am currently at work can't reply faster

[glacial charm]

that was literally the most rigged safety car timing ever 😭

“papaya rules” ahh safety car. “Russell please crash into the wall so that rival Antonelli gets a free pit stop.”

Let's see tomorrow... if i qualified for sure

[shut sky]

Guys which 2nd driver should I use for series 3?

[gray salmon]

Haha you are probably better in every aspect of the game compared to me. I just thought your comment was funny

[halcyon prism]

how many people are in ? #1146706914613403658 this may can help

[outer fractal]

Good deal ?

[vapid forge]

My opinion I’d only recommend buying Premium Pit Pass unless they put Boost offers in the store, that means no power-ups etc. Just Boosts

[halcyon prism]

shhsss we need to sell creates

[dapper kayak]

What is worth focusing on leveling up?

[glacial charm]

slickshift is the only one I’d bother with in the long run. But glide is a good one if you still need a junior setup

later on slickshift also becomes kind of redundant when you get fury

😭

[dapper kayak]

i still in junior 3

i use berman and hadjar

[vestal thunder]

No, there is maybee twice each season with a good deal. Last time was the pumpkin offer, that 33% of the players got. Thats fair..

[oak olive]

I ma a FIRST team

[steel trench]

Twice ? That’s a bit of an exaggeration

[topaz zealot]

Why do I see people in series 12 playing in challenger Grand Prix? Yall that bad?

[vestal thunder]

I feelt i had to, didnt want to get a ban 😂

[steel trench]

You won’t get a ban for it 😂

[vestal thunder]

Did u get pumpkin offer? 😅

[steel trench]

I did, with pit pass only it was expected

[glacial charm]

I can tell you’re gonna progress far in this game 😂😂

[steel trench]

I thought last week everyone got it though?

[topaz zealot]

In same series as you bud 🤣🤣🤣 funny

[glacial charm]

how many challenger p1s you got

[vestal thunder]

Some got it, not many.. maybee 2% more so 35% have gotten it

[topaz zealot]

Got p2 in junior and p3 in challenger and moved on to contender lol

[glacial charm]

🤣

enjoy having no assets for contender

[topaz zealot]

Yeah lemme just go back and dog wipe them now and get P1 to boost my ego

[glacial charm]

I see you also don’t see how the groupings in this game work either hmm

[vestal thunder]

And we had a poll in our discord, 84% answered they didnt get it

[topaz zealot]

Ur slow just say it 🤣

[glacial charm]

you will probably never get a contender p1 this season

[topaz zealot]

Keep racing down there buddy. Like sending max back to c
Karting 🤣

[glacial charm]

@steel trench this guy doesn’t get it

[steel trench]

It’s a trap that many fall in 😂

I can see who will be here after some time complaining about how hard something is

[topaz zealot]

Yeah I don’t get it 🤣

[steel trench]

@rough maple hello there 😂

[rough maple]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-hi-hy-hey-gif-8520159980767013609

[steel trench]

Was hoping for a podium and then I see you also 😂😂😂😂😂

[glacial charm]

I’m only telling you because I had a massive ego when I began playing this game in 2023 and had a lot to learn

It WOULD be beneficial if you listened

[topaz zealot]

I mean I get it yeah cool first place podiums. But isn’t it like putting max in F2?

[glacial charm]

You’re not max buddy

we have to work around the game to get the most out of it. Staying in lower tiers is the way to do that

[topaz zealot]

Yeah but if you are series 12? The rewards from the better Grand Prix even just making it to the finals and not getting a Rodin is better no?

[glacial charm]

every gp result influences your next group

[topaz zealot]

Yeah ur right I don’t get it 🤣

[rotund solar]

Spoiler alert; players can race in any GP tier they like

[glacial charm]

and if he likes getting beaten every week in the late season then that’s his prerogative

[topaz zealot]

I made it to the finals of contender 🤷‍♂️ dog wiping lower tiers isn’t fun to me

[rotund solar]

@glacial charm I meant players in any series above the GP tier can drop down as they like

[glacial charm]

Yeah I get that

the game subtly forces you into the highest tier you can enter, but you can select a lower tier

[rotund solar]

You should deffo go to champs next week

[glacial charm]

setting him up for great success 😂😂

4 gps and groups are cooked for the rest of the season

[rotund solar]

It's what he clearly wants, a P2 in junior, a P1 challenger and he was ready for contender, so why not go to champs next week if he gets a podium this week, he clearly knows how it works 🤷🏻‍♂️😉

[glacial charm]

He got p3 challenger btw

so even better

P6 at the start of the FR isn’t too bad for losing a single point in OR

[rotund solar]

Yeah he should deffo do champs, he's already cooked his GP groups too soon, we will see him tagging hutch complaining about unfair grouping here in a few weeks time, rage quitting and calling the game rigged etc etc

[glacial charm]

guaranteed, he will quit in T minus 2 weeks

like azza

Hey there’s no shame in quitting, I quit last season when I messed up

[topaz zealot]

LOL

[steel trench]

Once doesn’t count

[glacial charm]

got to series 9

in 2024 I started immediately in challenger and skipped junior, big mistake. After a month of little-no progress I quit. That was the story of last season

3 days crate reduction how blissful

[topaz zealot]

F2P?

[glacial charm]

Last season yeah. This season I pay a little and win a lot 🤙

I’ve even made mistakes this season, just not as early so it doesn’t really matter that I got a Q medal in contender

[topaz zealot]

I’d drop down also if I had that many Q medals so I get you

[glacial charm]

see if you can keep an 89%+ winrate with 1500 races completed

[topaz zealot]

On the real tho dog. I’ve spent hundreds in the maybe 2 months+ I’ve played and I’m in series 9 already I think I’ll be fine. I’ll probably drop down next GP tho because I did struggle like you said

[glacial charm]

spending hundreds does not make you a better player. Regardless of how much the game shoves it down your throat

[topaz zealot]

100% agree but being a decent player and then spending kinda helps

[glacial charm]

95% season score is very possible completely f2p

[topaz zealot]

I’ll probably get beat a lot in season 12 where the skill matters more but 🤷‍♂️

[glacial charm]

If you’re willing to put in the grind

when you’re at the point where losing a single point in any gp round is detrimental to your rewards, then you’ll know how harsh the game can get

[topaz zealot]

Last GP I got almost 50 points a race. Got like 6-25 each this one in contender 🤣 trust me I’m in the thick of the harsh 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[glacial charm]

if you can’t max point every round in challenger, you can’t get anywhere close in contender

every round. Quali: 188, OR: 376, FR: 376

More in bonus point gps but yeah

200, 400, 400

[topaz zealot]

I was like 2-3 points off first place in challenger and the game pushed me up when I was still in series 8 with no series 9 assets

[glacial charm]

The point I’m overall trying to make is that this game is a marathon, not a sprint. You get a whole year to build your setup. Usually for a final series at the end of the season where the players who bide their time will be the most successful and those who rush will not make it.

[topaz zealot]

Everything resets every year right?

[glacial charm]

the point is that you get the largest possible advantage for the following season

[topaz zealot]

Except bucks and boosts right? Or something like that?

[glacial charm]

every upgrade, every race won, gp position, increases your season score. The rewards are very bad up until 50%. The margins get smaller and minor advantages raise your rewards for the next season

[topaz zealot]

I ain’t making it this season I started wayyyyyy to late in the season

[glacial charm]

you would’ve made it if you hadn’t rushed to series 9 this quickly

your series 1-5 epic cards are probably less than 5 levels in, correct?

supernova, xhale, and fury are still very important parts even in contender

[topaz zealot]

5,5,4 for my season 1-5 epics

[glacial charm]

they ALL need to be level 7 to have a chance at contender p1

hence why I’ve not entered contender yet

[topaz zealot]

I bought all series 12 parts which is starting to hurt me

[topaz zealot]

Why would I need an upgraded series 1 driver in a series 6 event? Serious question

[glacial charm]

7,6,6,6,7

[glacial charm]

I didn’t say drivers now did I?

okay allow me to clarify, ALL series 1-5/6 epic component cards

[topaz zealot]

Ohh you ment car components

[upper ridge]

Le grand prix moustache folle donne des adversaires très forts 😅

C’est de la folie.. et même pour la course de qualification moi et l’adversaire nous terminons toujours de la 20eme à la 24eme place 😂😂😂

[steel trench]

If you are finishing 20-24 every race - the difficulty you entered is definitely not for you

[upper ridge]

Devrais-je terminé cette compétition ( gp moustache folle )?

[steel trench]

If you are in the final there is little reason not to finish it

[rough maple]

Well it should be easy to get a podium in this group

[steel trench]

There are some hidden threats. Like Bars currently in p35

[upper ridge]

Oui Qnyx pratiquement tout les pilote dans ce gp marque pas plus de 35 points 😅

Je ne pensais pas devoir affronter des bots aussi rapides 😂

[rough maple]

Let him try! My OR I didn’t use the right boosts for the tracks and got some very bad SC in a couple of races

[steel trench]

I have no doubt about you, I doubt a podium for me 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[rough maple]

We will see how it goes today. Probably running late or tomorrow in the morning

[topaz zealot]

What should I change besides obviously the upgrades before I do my GP in contender races?

[glacial charm]

not enter contender.

You’re nowhere near ready

you’re ready to qualify p24 sure but apart from that

[steel trench]

Entering contender at level 3 rares ? Now this is some confidence 😂

[glacial charm]

qualifying at 89 is 30 less than my minimum quali for challenger

[glacial charm]

I’d argue aero blade at level 1 is the biggest felony in this image

[topaz zealot]

Like yall said the game PUSHED me up

[glacial charm]

The game doesn’t push you up. Just select the lower tier

[topaz zealot]

It’s already upgraded 🤣 doesn’t make much difference tho needs 5 more levels

[glacial charm]

Also what track stat is that setup optimised for lol, might as well max out the cornering, power unit or speed. Balanced setup is just throwing away pace when it’s not random

My cornering setup for example if I had to make a quick move to contender

[topaz zealot]

So like I suspected imma have to min max and change parts and drivers each race and hope for the best?

[glacial charm]

min maxing in gp is no point. It doesn’t matter if you win a race. It’s about getting the most points possible

[glacial charm]

maybe I misunderstood. Yeah the idea is to keep changing your setup

[topaz zealot]

😐 yup doomed as doomed can be

[glacial charm]

no clue how you got to final round to be fair

did you just boost the heck out of your drivers

[topaz zealot]

Hopes and dreams. Yeah boosts every race

So now that I know this stuff you have taught me I can drop down next GP and just get P1 😏

[glacial charm]

not how it works. You entered a higher gp, so you get put into one of the highest challenger groups relative to your finishing position in contender

if there is even a SINGLE player who scores max points you’re cooked

[topaz zealot]

Highest dude has 216 rn

[glacial charm]

in contender yes. In challenger next week will be the humbling moment

[topaz zealot]

I’ll keep you updated 🫡

[upper ridge]

So if I understand correctly, the higher you finish in a Grand Prix, the higher your category rank; that's how it works.

[topaz zealot]

So me finishing garbage in the higher one is going to put me in a lower group in a lower one or a higher group in a lower one? Not making sense to me

[steel trench]

It will put you in a tougher group in your lower (where you should be racing) gps

[clear bloom]

Hey I have almost all changed on the single seater

[upper ridge]

I think you have to stay at your current level and not improve your performance too quickly because I found myself in the contender category and it's crazy on the track now

[limpid light]

lol

I’m still trying get my tire situation straight

Can you unlock new tires ?

[azure lance]

anyone know fast lap this event?

[limpid light]

You’ll learn it, doesn’t make a difference in lower series

[jagged axle]

Leclerc probably

[white fjord]

In terms of balaced, isn't good colapinto with gasly for the TM ?

Tyre management...

[jagged axle]

You don’t need to worry about tyre management

Only need to worry about race start

[limpid light]

Oh okay

[limpid light]

Any advice for lower series?

[jagged axle]

Don’t use boosts
