BMW fans are really this lunatics?

[Merukuru]

This week trial with BMW M5 is just a circuis. Amount of rammers this week is just insane. I'm playing trials all the time. Probably one of my favourite mode. And usually its pretty ok. Worst thing you can have is ppl with stock cars. But this week is awful. Amount of clowns that are ramming, wallsliding, not using breaks etc is just ridiculous. Is it all because of BMW magic?

My trials runs so far have not been like this. Last one was pretty smooth.

Yeah, BMW fans are weird. I just sold a regular, stock E92 M3 at the Auction House for 5,000,000, despite it's available at the autoshow for 42,000.

I didnt know it could even sell that high. AH limits still are interesting to me.

The fact that people buy it is what blows my mind. I just did it out of curiosity. To see if people would be that dumb. Kind of felt bad after it. Just paint it with the M3 GTS color, give it some similar wheels and there will for sure be someone who won't double check before buying it.

I can see others exploiting this indiscriminately.

What class is this week's trial? I had a lot of fun the last couple of weeks. Been gone for several months, but the trials have been worth revisiting.

But yeah on the AH you still see people put up cars that are in the show. I almost fell for me myself since I'd been gone for so long. I think it was the week of the Mini coopers. I almost bought a tuned one....silly me.

What cheeses me off is that it is stock trial again. Not only does it defy the nature of a racing game to not be able to set up your car, it also means all cars behave the same, there are no strengths and weaknesses, and the whole ramming clown posse sticks really close together.
I'm so disgusted by my trial experiences on this, I quit multiple times and will most likely pass this week. No fun at all.

Choice of car is... questionable, especialy for stock racing. AWD sedan with high top speed, but handling of a school bus. Not many players will know how to handle this fat cow, and with no wallriding penalty in Coop, most won't even try.

It will get better as series progress. Few players know how to race in FWDs, so *Opel Corsa trial will quickly seperate decent players from wallriders. '93 Skyline is pretty good car even stock. Nightmare will return for last season, with Mercedes E63 which will likely handle just as badly, but also drive on wet road.

*well, technially Vaux Corsa because recycled FH4 models.

I really like stock trial. Its nice to race in the same cars. I wish they'd made separeta online mode with stock cars only just like fm7 has it.

Sometimes I really don't know what's going on there. Last week I was about to buy another '98 Supra, so I have one just for testing, went to auction house, and the cheapest I could find there was at 300k. Wut? Got one from autoshow instead.

Don't mess with us BMW fans, we will not use our turn signals.

Wrong way of looking at things. Just because PGG decided to have players use a specific BMW car doesn't mean only BMW fans play it. Things go more like this:

"What do we have here... A STOCK SHOWDOWN?! What car? An RWD, A CLASS CAR?! Oh my god how I gonna remotely enjoy this Trial without AWD swapping and going full aero? It's literally impossible to apply enough throttle to keep the wheels pushing the car without spinning out and I still don't get why people misspell the word "break". Also, the term "racing lines" is being thrown around often as a means to improve one's driving... Dunno, this is FH5, not Paint... Well, off to ruin my and my teammates' experience! A bit of Destruction Derby won't hurt. Game's build around mechanics that support such playstyle so who gives a deuce? Not me!"
