Hello everyone, I come to report an error in the checkpoints observed in some tracks and I hope they give a correction for them, adding a simple checkpoint at the exit of curve in those parts because it is very difficult to run against cheaters
Follow the link to see how the cheating is done:
There is no real cheating going on here. Horizon allows this, as it is a free roam game and as long as you are between the Checkpoint flags, it is legal. Most people don’t do this as going off road slows you down, in most cases.
Motorsport, yes this would be blatant cheating, Horizon, no.

From the moment that cut is made, he can open a long distance to the second place, allowing him to do more XP in a sequence of skills, then the fun goes far
Still isn’t cheating.

What I see in this video is a ghost (rival?) ahead of you, and after using the ‘cheats’ your still behind it… is it really cheating when you lose the race?
This isn’t motorsport; strict adherence to the asphalt is not necessary.

You gain a bit if done well with a vehicle that is at home on the dirt. I’m not sure I would have posted about it or called it cheating though
Races are to each checkpoints no rules of how to get there. Those are the dots and you can choose how to connect them.
It would be nice if we could make our own races
Drop checkpoints where we would like to create circuit and sprint races.
Actually… I find this a little brilliant.
I’m constantly amazed at the shortcuts, tricks or glitches people find in this game…

Not gltiches, arcade racer, make the checkpoints, it does not matter how as long as you make them. No dirty lap indicator for a reason in races.

That doesn’t really seem faster to me…
If it is faster, why don’t you also take that line?
I wish they would make sim damage and steering mandatory in EVERY multiplayer race along with a “slowdown” penalty system of some sort, much like Assetto Corsa for going off track for all the trash-talking cheating rammers out there.
It’s such a simply system really, yet the developers actually want to encourage Destruction Derby style dirty driving. I know it sounds crazy but why they won’t do anything to encourage clean driving is beyond me. I guess do private races for now.
This is the beauty of Horizon when compared to Motorsport–the freedom to create your line from checkpoint to checkpoint. If you can’t beat 'em otherwise, then join them (it really adds to the challenge).

I can forgive cuts like this but the wallrides are annoying, like when there is a concrete barrier they don’t brake and just use the barrier to turn.
Wallriding is definitely lame, but it should ease your mind to know that doing so causes the points chain to be lost. Wallriders may get ahead of you in the race, but they will earn very little XP.
