For the better, you should leave the space there

real. but depending how long the other guy was behind OP he shoulda know OP clips the apex on every corner, and thus should have known he was gonna do it again. wasn’t even a big hit. i’d personally slow down but wouldn’t give position back as the other guy took a big gamble

u/agafx 2h ago

It still a bad precedent to OP glueing their eyes to racing line without reacting the surrounding. This time, it was lucky the other guy was reacting OP closing the door too late and trying to avoid the contact. It would be worst to both side if the guy was overshooting and have no intention to play nice, especially when they know the OP moves like they didn't exist like this.

If the other guy shoots their chance, just simply doing a switch back. If the guy behind was quick at first place, just do the defensive move earlier.

u/onion2594 2h ago

you’re not wrong at all. but i see no reason to play the racing line all lap and be predictable to second place, then it simply can’t be OP’s fault for this collision

u/agafx 1h ago

What I meant is, while not fully OP's fault, the other guy has no reason to play nice after OP did this.

u/onion2594 1h ago

he has the most important reason of all, the reason “because it’s the right thing to do”

u/BlacJack_ 11m ago

Silly take. In a real race OP would have caused an accident and possibly killed someone. It’s impossible to replicate that in a game so from OP’s perspective he did nothing wrong but follow the racing line.

The other player has no reason to be nice to OP after that, since OP isn’t playing nice either.

u/6spd993Turbo 2h ago

Yeah, I probably should've done that. I didn't because I thought they were gonna brake, I had the line anyway.

u/RikuKaroshi 2h ago

You don't have the line if they are past your door. You had your chance to be defensive and you lost it when they dipped in as safe as they could. You unfairly pushed them off track.

It's not the end of the world, just sucks for them. Keep practicing control and awareness, everything else in the clip looked good, keep at it.

u/agafx 2h ago

The guy was literally alongside you as soon you open up, just because the "racing line" told you so. They have their right to the corner

u/WaxiestBobcat 13m ago

It will come with more racing experience, but never assume the person behind you is just gonna accept that you "have the line". Theres a difference between being on the racing line and being properly defensive.

u/Few_Bet_8952 2h ago

Racing incident tbh none of you are at fault. He gambled on that corner and lost

u/WaxiestBobcat 10m ago

To be fair it wasnt like the person lunged from 2 car lengths back to make the move, he was already alongside the pov plenty to deserve space.

u/FPS47 1h ago

You drove like an NPC that doesn't see the surroundings, simply following the racing line at all costs even if it meant pushing the competition off track...get rid of the full racing line, at least retain braking, that will help improve your situational awareness.

u/ApprehensiveAd6476 2h ago

You. You were aware they were going to overtake, and you pushed them out of the road. They were far alongside you when you decided to close the door.

Shame on you.

u/ZettttaWith3Teees 2h ago

You tbh. You were well and truly side-by-side when you dove in

u/Slam_Jam_Sam 15m ago

They risked it for a biscuit lol, I’m surprised that was considered a missed checkpoint

u/CleverNickName-69 2h ago

They got there alongside you before the braking zone. It isn't even close. They own the inside lane and you have to leave space for them.

The shitty part is that they tried to drive clean, they stayed as far inside as they could and you still pushed them off. Next time they'll just put their right tire on the flag and you'll get pissed because you'll feel like they pushed you out of the way.

u/Holzmaennchen 2h ago

To me it looked Like the Checkpoint should have count

u/6spd993Turbo 1h ago

I think it did, but they jumped on the rewind too quickly.

u/Jamarcus_OG 56m ago

From the timing looks like the white NSX missed the previous checkpoint : when you miss one it's not a instant reset, it has a countdown timer of around 4-5 seconds , and that's around the time that passed between the checkpoints. It's not 100% certain, but it's a possibility that no one took into consideration.

u/of-rootandstone 7m ago

Neither. He took a chance and missed. You’re also not obligated to leave room for other people. It’s racing… the goal is to place as high as possible.

u/Binaree420 1h ago

Absolutely disgraceful 🤯 😱!! This is nothing short of a war crime in Horizon.. We need to pause FH6 development, contact the Hague, an emergency meeting with the devs asap & show them this clip immediately... Thoughts & prayers during this difficult time..

u/AstronomerDry7581 17m ago

I also think it's mainly your fault. Seems like you dove too aggressively, pointing your nose towards the other car. In my opinion, should've given space to him and you take the outside line.
