CosmoWolf_ Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 congrats to anyone who got to Elite without playing, you were spared the pain. Obviously I am still fuming from having to do the grind twice. I work as well so only doing that in my evenings was pretty depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhounz Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Since this season there are races which are only 5 laps long, but also the normal length with 12+ laps. In addition, there are also F2 races. I have found nothing online about this, is this a bug or intentional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure, but I would say this is part of the "Sport Update," so it is most likely intentional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it isn’t a bug because the F2 races done me right so far with nearly 300 points in 3 races but the 5 lap races are a bit of a chaos because its only 5 laps and the starting grid is random, thats asking for trouble despite it got me 120 points in 2 races. But my group is so close, I was 3rd earlier this day and like 1.5 hour later I was 7th… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seblegamer Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 When you pop the trophy on PS4, and then connect to ps5, do you directly unlock it too ? Or need to do it in 2 seasons when you want both PS4 and PS5 platinums ? X_x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pupik-Kaci26 Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 So basically this trophy in F123 hates you, your wife/girlfriend and your kids. In order to achieve it you will need shit bucket, dorritos, drinking cap but lost importantly sleepless nights. Casual players will be locked out of platinum because of this stupid trophy. Just being honest here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just being honest here. It's called trophy hunting, casual players don't go for the 100% trophy completion in most of the games they play. Also it's not as bad as you put it, you will have to play a lot to get to elite, but never priotize a trophy over your health Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This trophy ffs just gauge your group for that week and make a decision from there. Season is fresh so you don't have to grind for a double promotion really.

Obviously transferring to a race it's not going to be 'tailored' to a race pace but it really doesn't matter. You should still use the time trial set ups in races. The setup will get you the optimum speeds on straights and downforce around corners. I dont know if i got it right ... but for what i saw ... custom setup only apply for qualification lap no ? During racing you cant choose one and everybody have the default setup no ? Cause in a 5 laps ranked race, unless i missed it, you can't choose any setup no ?

LadevigRL Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I scored 2292 points this week in Silver 1, I'm 1st in the ranking, 2nd 2181, 3rd 2059, and 4th 1655 points, I'm going up to Gold 1. Are the scores higher in Gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ôô In F1 this is called parc ferme conditions. The setup you use in quali will be used in the race; you can't change it. So whatever setup you loaded for the one-shot quali continues over into the race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCS_RStyles046 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 From Gold 1 to Gold 3 again, hopefully finally Elite this week. But again Baku, I like the track but Baku is so often in Ranked, so many other tracks that I haven’t seen yet in Ranked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw you are leading the group right now. I spend several hours looking for races today, got one with 9 players and one with 3....

Im in 400 points since tuesday and its now saturday and Im still leading the group, thats how dead it is this week. After searching several minutes and being in lobbys solo over and over again I just stop and play another game, its ridiculous. Hope I will get to Elite this week so this frustrated trophy is finally done… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kappel12 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Does tech level have anything to do with performance in ranked races? Last week in Brazil I was 2-3 seconds slower with the F1 World car than with original F1 cars. Now Miami is even worse, 6 seconds slower - I just don't understand, why is that? That makes it even less fun (than it already is). I had won my Silver 1 group by far, straight into Gold 1, but somehow nothing worked - new week, new luck Edited November 6, 2023 by kappel12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
