Hello,
A friend of mine advised I sign up to this, we like to start race lobbies, sometimes with custom tracks we have made and this should help us populate the lobbies we setup faster, as well as find us other lobby invites from like minded folk.
I like racing with these settings,
Weather: Clear
Time: Noon
Slipstream: OFF
Catch up: OFF
Traffic: OFF, sometimes on for a bit of fun.
Contact: ON
Custom: OFF, sometimes on for a bit of fun.
I feel these settings provide for the best, most competitive races and allows for the best frame rates.
Contact is a must in my opinion as it adds to the excitement when having a tight race and shows a lot of skill when people avoid crashes.
Most the tracks I've made are off road Sanchez races, although I've made a few good ones for sports and super cars. They were also designed with having lots of players in mind, like ten plus. I remember before R* made changes to the lobby system, there was a time that when you created a lobby, waited one ore two minutes, you would suddenly get a large group of players joining all at once coming from another lobby that had just finished, I always assumed that they had voted for Random and were then put into my lobby. Since some changes were made to the lobby system, it doesn't work like that anymore, for whatever reason, i'm not sure. Which is a real shame because I had some awesome times and took it for granted during that period. I'd have 30 player races going on my custom tracks, people enjoyed them because they would vote replay! It's different now, we'll get 10 - 20 at best and it will take much longer than one or two minutes.
Would like to try some other custom tracks that are not R*Verified, i'm sure there are some gems out there. As well as to get some inspiration for more custom races. If you want to try a race of mine out I'd suggest any of the top most played ones!
Looking forward to playing with you.
