In your GTAV directory, there will be a file called "commandline.txt". Inside, delete the "-scOfflineOnly" option. You might also need to delete the Windows Firewall rule that blocks GTA and RSC as well.

In general, try not to be in the crowd of dumbwits that is going to crash everyone. Use normal brakes the last second, instead of handbrake. Either make sure custom vehicles is off, or trade races until you get all the performance upgrades, so you at least start out equal. Entity FX is still good, despite the newer more expensive cars.

No, you want to be the dumbwit that crashes into other players. It's literally the only entertaining thing about racing, especially if someone gets mad about slipstreaming being on (something that actually makes racing slightly interesting). If you can't tell, I preferred twisted metal over need for speed during my PS1 days. Mendoza was a good man

Was doing races with randos and this one particular person in EVERY RACE kept trying to drive into me with their brawler and would fail. How? Not sure. I was on a sanchez and i'd just drive through the woods or anything else that would cause the guy to slam into it head first, while I weaved back and forth. If you're gonna be THAT guy, at least know how to gently caress someone up. Goddamn. I'm bad at races but I can out maneuver y'all (not always tho).

Supercars are boring What's that garbage looking armoured sedan that everyone has and never gets out of in missions unless it's absolutely necessary? There should be an option to automatically kick anyone who has that as their vehicle because they're guaranteed to speed ahead at mach 4 and shoot their dumb SMG with impunity before I can get there and play this god drat cover shooter strong bird fucked around with this message at 18:31 on Aug 27, 2015 |

I'll get out of my Armored Kuruma during missions the day the NPCs stop having the damage and accuracy of Tier 1 operators.

I'd look for BitBasher's giant effort post about racing. It's nothing but gold. Or you could be a gamer about it and just buy a souped up sadler and host utility races or do the race trading thing.

Here, I'll help: BitBasher posted:Almost assuredly the pilot was straight red but not everyone in the helicopter was, which is why you got a mental state bump. Counterpoint: Who gives a gently caress whether or not your mental state goes up or even cares what it is? geeves posted:The following won't mean poo poo if you can't control your car. Find the best cars for you in each class. They each drive differently so find one with which you feel comfortable. Which to start with? This is covered in the second post of this thread. But don't let that be a definitive list. None of these "rules" will do you well for a race in which pubbies play king of the mountain and constantly try to rear-end you, use the PIT maneuver against you, race the track in reverse or just simply exist, or a race with traffic and constantly altering your drivelines, but they can help in the grand scheme of racing. BitBasher posted:Everything in Geeve's post is excellent, but I would like to make a suggestion... BitBasher posted:The physics in this game aren;t really janky at all, the cars just have a pile more traction than they should. Everything else physics wise works generally just like it should. BitBasher posted:If you don't plan on winning but just want to collect tears then this works great. At the start of a race number one priority should be avoiding contact with everyone. Period. If you gently caress with other cars then the leaders get away free and the further you are from the leader the more cars there are that will gently caress you up between you and the leader. This is the very reason that someone can win race after race in full lobbies even with catch up on. As the field fucks with each other and gets farther and farther behind, the people that are ahead gain an insurmountable lead. If you are going to pit do it strategically. Pit on corners. Wide sweeping corners are best. Don't just spin them out, send them off the track entirely. A pit that spins someone backwards will lose the lose a second or two whipping back forwards And catches up easily. A wreck that sends someone sideways until they skid to a halt (Which you really can't recover from) or into a building or telephone pole cists them a whole pile of time and throws them to the dogs putting them back in the pack to get hosed with by others effectively eliminating them. E: TL;DR: Decelerate before the turn, keep throttle steady in the turn. Don't try to maneuver and accelerate/decelerate at the same time, gently apply throttle back to full around 3/4 of the way through the corner. If you're on PC I have no idea how you manage half or three-quarters throttle. titties fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Aug 27, 2015 |

All that stuff I learned from Gran Turismo, and yet I'm still a terrible driver.

Starhawk64 posted:All that stuff I learned from Gran Turismo, and yet I'm still a terrible driver. I scored gold in every license exam in ever Gran Turismo! As an addendum to the holy poo poo too many words of mine quoted above: Never drive a top end supercar when loving around in freeroam. Drive a fast car or cars that don't handle as well and make you learn to control your poo poo. Drive a number of them, get used to how they handle. After you can drive a Coqutte (Classic or Blackfin), Dukes, Carbonizarre, Monroe, or similar cars at high speeds in traffic without crashing into poo poo then when you get in a Massacro, T20 or similar car they are absolutely cake. Drive all the crazy rear end cars and nothing but. They will make you a better driver way faster than getting creamed at races and driving nothing but a t20 in freeroam does you poo poo for good. There's also the point of Visual Horizon. Don't look right in front of your car like the vast majority of all people do. Look a block or more ahead of your car, look way ahead of your car. If something pulls out right in front of you then you are hosed anyway and won't have the reaction time to do anything about it, so gently caress that. Look a good 5-8 seconds ahead of your car and then you can plan a path around obstacles without having to freak the gently caress out when it sneaks up on you because you weren't looking far enough ahead.

haha look at that effort post, the PC racing thread is that way. Just keep playing until you've learned a number of the common tracks. You'll learn so much about the car handling, how the game models it and how the terrain actually translates to what you need to do in the car that everything else will come. Also the fundamentals never go away. The T20 has such hardcore turn in and with such balance that with the right line I rarely brake, just a lift can really kick it into an apex and even flat to the boards it still turns like it shouldn't. The supers are nuts, the other categories are the usual tropes. The muscle cars have power but slide like they're on oil and they model body roll and generally what the rest of the world calls a 'yank tank' by having their handling being a bit twitchy, so the strategy is POINT IT STRAIGHT and THEN hit the throttle. The T20 you can have at full lock and kick the throttle and it doesn't give a gently caress because it's a magical super car. Bikes are a lot of fun because you actually have to race due to the lower percentage chance of your massive shitcunt into turn 1 actually loving anyone but yourself. I ride the Hakuza (or whatever it's called, the Ill Gotten Gains superbike addition, the classic superbike from GTA1) everywhere, dirt, road, everywhere.. because one you learn how it turns you can make all the corners and jumps and then blitz others on the straight. The biggest trick with bikes is a mono or wheelie is TURBO! You should be pulling a wheelie every loving second you can, as in I'm constantly on my back wheel and only dab the front end down enough to turn into the corner. Finally for a boost start you stay off throttle and let it count 1, 2, 3 and then on GO, infact like a quarter of a second before GO you floor it. Do it right and you'll know, a turbo sound happens, the visuals go like you're a bit stoned (lol) and you get the holeshot.

One of my favorite GTAO moments was doing missions with BitBasher on PS3 a long time ago. I pull up in my car and beep at him, he gets in, and we drive toward the objective. For a while there's silence, then he said "I forgot that you know how to drive. I usually don't ride with anyone" and it felt good man E: I'm pretty sure I said something like "I mean I slow down a little before a turn" and then immediately spun out and hit a building titties fucked around with this message at 08:41 on Aug 28, 2015 |

Mosy times i get in someone elses car I don't look at the screen because its painful. Its a sad state of affairs that when doing Heists with pubbies I usually make it to the initial drive across the map objective in a Vigero or Sultan well ahead of jackasses in supercars. When someone can drive I ride shotgun in first person, it's nice. Edit: we havent done a race night I could show up for in a while.
