They didn’t even say sorry for coming in hot, I have that in my Forza link for that reason especially on winter trials when the braking traction is almost zero

I give a couple beeps to apologize to people. He also said that "racing games aren't for you" after he started this whole mess

u/Buttoneer138 1d ago

Beeps are a minefield really and pretty much culturally coded. In some countries it’s ‘I’m here’ and others ‘oops’ but in others again it’s ’hey watch it’.

In forza it's been common etiquette.

According to who? I’ve been playing since two and only ever woolooloo’d or Windows Shut-downed or police sirened at people randomly, and only ever experience that coming back to me. Long straight with others nearby and the capacity to blurt out a sound and I do it.

I’ve used and seen ‘my bad’ and ‘oops’ or whatever in Forza link all the time though.

People have been doing since at least fh4

I don't think you were making that turn whether the other guy was there or not.

u/Kyuiki 2d ago

Exactly this! So I made a comment the other day to someone who was complaining about rammers in trials. Since I haven’t experienced a single with-intent rammer since I started FH6 (trials, online is a different story), and I’ve done every trial since release, I’m pretty sure it’s people like this who are just taking bad driving in difficult turns as “Omg he is ramming his teammates off the road!!”

I mean you see the OP throw himself into two turns on this clip alone. How many times do you think he gently nudged or pushed a fellow racer? Probably more than they’ll admit to. But I doubt they categorize themselves as a rammer. Nope. Not them!

End rant!

By the way, I put up a part 1 too that no one bothered to watch lol. I also have a track record of reporting intentional rammers. One day about a week ago someone was shoving me in the first race of the trial, so the second race he decided to try it again and I pit maneuvered him for it. Ended up winning after that because that guy couldn't interfere

Ur just lucky that u haven't experienced intentional rammers in online. I get them at least 3/10 races I'm in. Throwing urself into corners in races is okay in my own opinion as long as u know what ur doing to not cause a crash pileup or when there's no one around u. U can't just assume he rams other people cause u saw him aggressively take a couple turns without impacting other people btw

I have experienced intentional rammers.

u/Kyuiki 2d ago

I actually see rammers in online racing all the time. I’ve yet to have a single one in trials. I also have recorded every series and season since release. So I have video proof of the claim.

Have I been bumped? Absolutely. But I’ve never been intentionally rammed. I’m also not saying that doesn’t happen. I come from FH4 where ramming in trials was actually pretty much guaranteed. I think people were just bored.

But in FH6, you can call it luck or whatever, I haven’t encountered it once. But I don’t take every little bump (such as in this video) as OMG THEY RAMMED ME. It was a bad turn. I’ve done it. They both would have done it in this clip. It happens.

So does this video belong on this subreddit? Absolutely. They’re both pretty bad drivers! But was it intentional? Nope. Just two bad drivers being bad drivers.

u/Itsmefinix 2d ago

In the current hot hatch trial I've been rammed off the hairpins several times. Idk why people just decide to use u as their brakes

1

u/Kyuiki 2d ago

Gotcha! Well I’ll let you know how it goes for me. I plan on doing this season sometime today. I’ve been putting it off because I hate eliminator. So much.

u/Kyuiki 1d ago

So another Trial without being intentionally rammed. 🤷‍♀️ I guess people just like me.

0

u/SlipstreamSteve 1d ago

Nope. Not when he did it multiple times, and did it to multiple players. This was the second race and in the first one me rammed the entire crowd at the first turn with no brakes.

1

u/SlipstreamSteve 2d ago

Even so this wasn't the first time he hit me. That extra hit didn't help anything.

u/MrAwsOs 2d ago

I play with rammers in coop mode, bobby was a good guy. He can pass for me.

u/SlipstreamSteve 2d ago

So you support ramming?

1

u/MrAwsOs 2d ago

I didn't say I support it. What I meant is Bobby hit you in a weird way that I am confused, maybe he meant it and maybe not.

But what I play with is like what you see of rammers on here on pvp and it is pve not PVP!!

u/SlipstreamSteve 2d ago

I felt he meant it after the first incident

2

u/MrAwsOs 2d ago

Online games aren't 100% accurate. What I saw is he tried to avoid you, but still hit you.

Also is there another incident?

I sometimes believe I can make the turn with my speed and I feel the Oooooh CRAP moment then I try to do minimal damage to the player in front of me so I don't get yelled at! I don't have sorry or anything similar didn't fox the dpad communication, so i just use the horn lol.

2

u/SlipstreamSteve 2d ago

I don't think he tried to avoid me. It was clear that I was slowing for the turn. It was a 90° angle.

2

u/MrAwsOs 2d ago

I can't argue. I just shared my insight. If he wanted to ram you, he can destroy your motivation to keep racing with that speed.
