Great stuff FN! Fantastic progress
. The bit Iāve quoted above though might explain a lot though ![]()

Oops I meant to say Roadster⦠Freudian slip ![]()
Awesome stats, I would be surprised if anyone has more FFA wins than that, same as your crazy number of Eliminator wins. (Iām still disappointed thereās no global leaderboard for these things.)
Agree they are awesome but I suspect there will be some players with way over 1,000 wins at FFA. Avesta F1, for example, has 196 wins this month.
What is it with Cross Country coming up all the time at weekends? Six attempts to play FFA this morning - 1 A class x country and 5 S1. I only entered the A class one, which was a fairly swift wake up call with a stacked field including HLundh (who apparently was streaming). Managed to escape with a 3rd and +6 points. Winner was driving a Hummer which was extremely quick.
It definitely needs one, I stopped playing because the rollovers happen way too often in there. It probably would have more people playing if they added a team version. Teams of 2 or 3, then ramming and blocking wouldnāt be frowned upon
Iād have definitely got minus points for that one FN
!
Standard is high today. Did 5 adventures earlier and didnāt win any but moved up about 15 points overall, given quality of the fields. Frustratingly, I always seem to get these higher quality fields on my least favourite courses! Horizon Circuit starting at the back of the grid against a quality field is not fun!
I just had the opposite issue⦠found myself in one of the highest ranked lobbies Iāve ever been in, every player was above me. I finished 7th out of 10 and went +6. (It was 9 at the end because one player quit in the final race.) The hidden rank of the unranked player was obviously very high as well.
I might have finished a bit higher except for this in the final race⦠I was rammed off the road and missed a checkpoint, completely unprovoked unless anyone thinks the little bit of contact I made with him just before justified his extreme overreaction in any way. The culprit here also got into a bashing match with other players in the first race and he finished that race last as a result so I think the red mist was in full effect. Overall the skill level was not dramatically different to me, but most of the players were not shy about being highly aggressive in passing, it was bash your way to the front at all costs. A much more aggressive and unpleasant race than is the norm and I wonāt be sorry not to meet this crowd again!
Looks like everyone got disconnected but they sure used it as a opportunity to steal more rank. -55
Sorry to hear that man⦠I would be gutted if that happened to me.
@Jezza: could you point me to Hlundhās stream? Never been able to find it.
@FullNietzsche: exquiztt streams often and itās common for his viewers to āsnipeā him. If you want more lobbies like that consider following him on twitch. Btw, this is the match you were in: Twitch
Oh, also, the attitude on exquizttās stream is pretty anti-meta. So if you use meta against them it should give you an advantage. Although theyāre all really good. Iād probably lose anyway ![]()
Whoops, just realized you said you donāt want to run into them again D: Sorry, read over your post too fast
Yeah I definitely do not want to run into them again.
To be fair, it mainly seems to be that one guy who thinks ramming others off the road is fun. You can see he does the same thing to Exquisitt in the same series, despite the fact they presumably are mates. Seems the type of guy who would be easily sorted out by proper enforcement - you can bet he plays all the time and is relatively protective of his rank.
I donāt know where Hlundh streams. Just one of the other guys mentioned that they were sniping his stream - hence why it was quality. Had a search yesterday but couldnāt find anything either.
I reported it to Xbox with a link to the video clip but I donāt suppose theyāll do anything. If a bunch of friends want to get together and ram each other consensually thatās fine, but they shouldnāt do it in a public lobby with strangers.
Hmm, Iāve lost about 90 points in two races today. Either Iāve lost the ability to drive or Iām suffering from some sort of input lag. In both, it felt like my turns were delayed and then when I tried to correct for the fact it wasnāt turning, I oversteered instead. First time, I thought it was just an S2 car I didnāt use often in ranked (F40C) but then Iāve just had the same happen in the A class Roadster, which Iām very used to driving. Thatās a lot of wins needed to get back up to League 2
.
Ouch, I thought I was having a bad day to lose 31 points today⦠Iāve lost points in every match except the last one which was +0 for finishing 2nd. No problem with my playing, just lots of bad luck really (and a few more lovely rammers).
And just lost another 17 in the next match⦠pfft.
And another 12 in the next. Level 4 again here we come.
Just had a terrible run of last or near last place starts + tough opposition (sometimes very fast players but who are ranked a lot worse than their actual skill) + rammers = not a happy Nietzsche today ![]()
I guess I laughed bit too much on this part ![]()
But I feel your pain. I havenāt touched FFA since I lost 50? 70? points in one day. Canāt remember exactly how much, because it was in season 22. I didnāt even touch qualification in this month.
