Fix lobby jumping

Malsvir

i hope I'm not the only one, but trying to race my 1656 cars in a lobby meant for 1650-1656 & getting challenged by 1680,1670 & 1660's is seriously ruining my enjoyment of this game& with the latest update they have gone backwards in that

If they put a limit on the rating difference of the cars it wouldn't matter if the person jumps into a lower level. They would be in the same lobby but wouldn't be allowed to race lower rated cars.

The only downfall to doing that is if you trade it will make it impossible

The simple answer to this, is they will not, since they see no problem. I made a thread on this once, and RYYST himself said "you never know what's under the hood". In other words, screw you we got your money. They let the join option run, to Support an unsupported action, trading, That allows weak, pathetic wannabe racer to exploit. The problem is GLU sees no trouble, as this makes much money for them.

Long answer short, all honorable racers are screwed, by the bottom line. Plain and simple, No matter the spin they want to pull.

"you never know what's under the hood" thats clear
or you can see the torque before race pinks thats is
if we cannot join this game not interested anymore

The first thing you should do is, have them prove their rating. Do a free race. You're worried about lobby jumpers, but, is a 56 against a 52 not the same as a 63 against a 56? I understand the lobby is meant for 50-56, but the point still stands. I want to be able to join friends and trade my cars. I can't exactly do this if they patch it up. I say keep it the way it is. Don't pink or bet until you know it's safe

Only thing u can really do is when u r in multiplayer lobby is to check out everyone's car. Look at its torque and weight and if u can free race them pay attention to their rating. Also look through a players ENTIRE garage. Some people tend to switch cars after a couple races with people in the lobby and bet and pinks in the higher rating car that looks exactly the same as their slower one...I'm a budget racer so I am always in 1630, 1635, 1640, 1645 lobbies and constant problem I deal with is jumpers everyday and hard to get a legit race unless I'm in turf lobbies or showdown.

Everyone struggling with lobby jumpers, just try to stay a step ahead of them. It might require to do more work just to get a legit race in, but saves u from having to lose money or cars from them (obviously that's why they went into a low lobby for) and when u find them IGNORE THEM! Some of them get so mad cause they can't race you so they start calling you names,& to make them more upset is if u figure out their rating or see that their torque is dramatically high for the lobby is to expose it them so everyone knows what he or she is running and that they are jumping. Some got really hurt when I do that but it whatever, they don't belong in that lobby anyways and I'm helping out fellow racers in the lobby from losing to these people. I believe lobby jumpers don't deserve to be notice and or looked up to, it is unfair we have to deal with this type of cheating and this scares off new players from the game and people who jumps and call themselves LEGIT makes me laugh.

Just play smater, know your cars limits, knowledge on cars ratings and such, best times for each lobby, and race check people you are uncertain about then you shall be fine. -Aloha Mongoose
