i dont know about anyone else but im getting fed up of people on forza over defending and blocking you to the point that they move to block at litrially the last minute giving you no time to react so you end up tapping the back of them then they retaliate and completely ruin your race because they messed up trying to block you.
anyone else experience this and get fed up of it yet nowhere cant you report for griefing in the game and if you report to microsoft they dont do anything about it
Happens over and over again. Just 5 min ago in S Class on Hakone. Guy in a Viper was slower on the straight and when I made my move he just pushed to the left and send me off track.
Some of those players are just the worst the gaming community has to offer. Absolute low.
After this I finally had enough and deinstalled. Not worth it at the moment.
Because they donât have any racing knowledge at allâŚor donât care. If youâre making a move for overtake on the outside, they defend and you switch to the inside they canât cut you offâŚprob a little both and driving by a motto âyou shall not passâ 
The guys doing burnouts around the whole track are also annoying. Iâve seen some people say itâs a bug but those people have more faith in humanity than I do.
People out there just ruining other peopleâs days for fun and nothing happens. Seems to be everywhere lately.
Watching my skill value get lower and lower every race, from ~4850 down to 4590, due to these immature âdriversâ is beyond frustrating. Driving as clean as possible with this crap netcode, avoiding as many crashes as you can, staying as far off of other drivers revenge list as humanly possible and more wonât gain you a single bloody point. Getting smacked off of turns and pushed off the widest parts of a circuit by these idiots and itâs an instant ~20-30 skill point deduction at the end of a race.
Matchmaking clearly doesnât work because these careless and deliberate hooligans remain in the supposedly higher skill / safety rated lobbies.
Whatâs the point of being a clean driver in this game? Whereâs the incentive to come back and have fun in a any part of the game when this behavior seems to be engrained in every driving mode this game has to offer, from players and AI alike?
Edit: With the replay system STILL not working and with no roadmap in sight for a fix, is there any reason to play this game for the competitive aspects or is it just a self-driving screensaver?
I think only if you have/know enough people to really organize your races. Had that back in Forza Motorsport 4 and it was just awesome.
Played a little GT the last hours but man⌠The driving in this game sucks compared to FM (at least with controller) 
I know myself and probably download FM again and cry about the ramming again 
Equally annoying are the people who will drive into a corner to pass you, completely missing the apex and understeering right into you shoving you off the track.
I think it have to be a bug. What I have seen in races is that those cars donât typically drift, they just drive around track like everyone else. I was curious about it so I tried tuning a car in free play to try to replicate the effect with different settings but I didnât get any smoke even with maximum toe setting without actually drifting. Cars basicly became totally undrivable but no smoke there.
I saw a guy yesterday leaving a smoke trail all the way down the Mulsanne straight and he was leaving tire marks on the pavement so I donât know.
Iâve also seen a couple people where itâll only happen when theyâre changing gears.
Iâm not going to write it off as a bug yet. Either way it causes chaos if youâre in driver view. The current state of humanity makes a game like this hard to play.
Yes I have noticed long tyre marks too. I donât think itâs about the tune alone since I canât replicate it in any way in free play nor I think itâs about driving style either. No one can drive a full lap with a pedal on the floor doing burnouts while racing but the smoking is continuous in these cars for what I have seen.
Maybe faster tyre wear of multiplayer combined with some tunes with a lot of toe angle might be the cause? Not that anyone couldnât use it to their advantage in the raceâŚ
It would be interesting to know does a player see the continuous smoke in multiplayer if itâs from their own car?
Iâve also wondered if they can even see it. The guy I saw yesterday didnât have any fishtailing or anything going on and he seemed to be cornering well enough. So I wouldnât even say he was âdriftingâ at all. It does seem weird.
I just wouldnât be surprised if people were doing it on purpose. No penalty and you can mess up as many people as you want behind you. Seems like something Forza racers would take advantage of.
I ghosted a guy trying to run me off the road which caused him to go offroad and flip a few timesâŚit was glorious. I saved the replay so that i can come back to it and laugh buuuuuuuuuuuuut replays are still broken on PC
Last night I heard a child, then when the race starts he dive bombs everyone in T1 and gets DQd by lap 2.
Is DQing a thing?
yes. After 12s of penalties the player is DQâd.
Which is funny because off-track penalties are so broken that you can clip 0.001s in certain spots and get a 17s penalty.
12s? Needs to be more agressive IMO, im a firm believer of 3 strikes and youâre out. â probably drives down âplayer engagementâ metrics tho.
Separately just got through a race where the guy in 1st didnt manage his tires (he lost 7s lead on 2nd to last lap)âŚand ended up sliding all over the place on the last lapâŚas he was struggling for grip on the straight he intentionality tried to run me off the road.
Players have zero racing etiquetteâŚTBH i dont even care if i win or not - i just wanna go fast
Knowing full well that so much of the FRR implementation is already broken, asking for more is foolish. However, I do really wish for FRR could include âunsafe re-entryâ penalties. I prefer to start a race from the back of the field, or will drop back if I start further up, and see how many places I can gain in a race. Far too often though, this is ruined by a player who has gone off track and when re-entering, just cuts blindly back onto the tarmac. They will either hit another racer, causing another wreck, or just get hit themselves. Of course, FRR then further compounds this by penalizing the player who hits the returning car.
All of this carnage being caused by a player who thinks that they will somehow recover the place they were in at the beginning. Please, just accept that your race has been compromised, and try not to do any more carnage yourself.
I did some testing with M4 GTS, first in free play where is set so much toe I could barely keep the car on track and also added 0.0 / max camber settings front / rear. Awful thing to drive with that setup. Still, no smoke even if I had continuous tyre squeal even on straights. As a next step I went to multiplayer practice. Again, no tyre smoke. I saw a car passing me on track and I even asked did he/she see any tyre smoke on track. Still no. Iâm really starting to believe it have to be a bug in the game / on some cars.
I appreciate the effort.
Iâll stop hating on them when I encounter them. I admit I havenât seen them as often recently. It was bad for a couple weeks though.
Thanks.
SBMM isnât working because there arenât enough active players to balance the lobbies. Game is dead
