I really do not understand the reason why people would pre-order a game and when they get early access they choose to slam, spin, and cheat their way around the track. Go into any public race and you will see what I’m talking about. If you havent gotten the game yet, it is pretty much the same with all racing games. You have the racers who actually race clean and you have the casual cruising racers who just drive around(me), but then you have this group of people that ruin the game for everyone. As we speak I am about to start an S-class road course, i will be spun on the first corner.

Thats why you get a couple of friends that race clean and will apologize for a mistake i have a few friends if you want to friend me we can play some good fun raceing.
2 words…Get Good.
Private lobbies with people of the same racing philosophy is the solution.
You should know this by now: Public Lobbies are a madhouse with no rules.
Forza 6 lobbys are a joke everyone is just wrecking everyone

I may be going back to forza 4. Ghost leagues tonight were just corner cutters 7 out of 10 and collisions just had maybe 4 or 5 people trying to race with full lobbies filled with wreckers and very unskilled players for elite division. T10. .this is not what I was racing for…pathetic. Catering to the cheaters by taking away sticky grass because so many crying how unrealistic. Guess what? …cutting corners gets you BLACK FLAGGED AND DQ’ed in real racing. Why couldn’tthey have put in a whatever that could register what car cut and penalize in some way. Otherwise, please just call this a arcade game for ages 3 and up…wonder why they are selling less. Rant over as well as purchasing and future titles unless this gets sorted. (Hint if you can’t do it T10…then let your consumers do it like every other game system out there…CPLs )
Exactly. This is console racing.

Cant wait till I get my limited edition Forza6 Bundle.
ive played maybe 30 games online and EVERY game no matter what I do someone intentionally crashes into me. people will just crash into you and then leave the game or follow normal players and attack them. I might as well just put my controller down and not even try because the result is the same thing.

Try leagues, no collisions.

And the point of that is? when you play a racing game to race and not to just time trial with ghost drivers. you may as well stick with career!!
Not an easy thing to do but its the mentality of these idiots that need sorting, I mean why do they waste so much money to buy a game they will play for a couple of weeks before they get fed up of the demolition derby crap and move on?
Trouble is its the pile of paper on a table bit where one pushes off the next idiot is in line!
You have runs of bad luck, I hated yesterday but today I decided to forget about being fast and just concentrate on avoiding crashes. As a result my average finish was far better, because one crash tends to lead to others and you can pick your way a good way through the field by just surviving the race without rotating or going upside down.
Edit leagues don’t help at the moment the no collisions league is gone replaced with b class…
This is me practicing what I’m preaching above…

That right there is a pure lack of not only skill but respect.
You on the other hand Cluff, nice racing - or driving I guess, it won’t be racing until you clear that mess, huh.

The Ford GT league is no collisions.
I noticed the same thing I place better avoiding e idiots rather then set good times
I think that is only in the lower league ranking, collisions turn on once you get placed in a higher division. I’m currently in Elite and it’s a wreck-fest.
Last night on Catalunya a guy was easily a couple of seconds ahead of me, he lost it went off track, I pass and enter a turn taking my line since he was off track. He didn’t check to see if the track was clear and came back on side-swiping me in the corner. I figure “whatever, we made it through the turn.” He apparently thought I was in the wrong and at the end of the straight as I began to brake for the hairpin he plowed into me without even attempting to slow down. Then he gets on the mic and says that’s what I get for “slamming him.” Yeah because it’s my fault he went off and hit someone when re-entering the track.
Leagues do not get better with rank in my experience.

I agree it’s VERY frustrating when people crash into you all the time…but without collisions at all there’s no fun.
The fun in overtaking, rubbing a little bit, braking early because of the car in front of you…
Leagues are good if you can fight your way into a higher division, there are clean drivers.
In two nights racing I haven’t had a bad race in ford GT (which had collisions on for me) or B class.
Higher division means finishing at the bottom end all the time now though even with an S2000 and a good tune.
