If someone light lags you in pinks and you lose your car because of spin or whatever, can anything be done?

I just got laggy lighted and just missed the nos... Would have won for sure...

nfac · June 2016

@Legandary_Launch sounds like you are calling me a bad driver and enabling cheaters. Keep up the good work bud

nfac · June 2016

Sometimes it's not too bad others the lights jump. Idc what @Legandary_Launch thinks. It's BS and cheating.

And for the record just because you got a countdown didn't mean you've been light lagged. I've gotten them transferring cars to myself from me. I'm talking lights stall and jump. Gl winning that.

@kingpen126 hope you didn't lose anything to nice. Sorry bud

nfac · June 2016

@Legandary_Launch maybe I overreacted sorry, I did just lose some cars. Lol.

We are good friend

Never had a problem with people that Lag. Its part of the game you can hardly call it cheating.

nfac · June 2016

smh @Dozerboy.

regretfully, it appears you're not alone in this opinion

Dozerboy · June 2016

What do you expect them to do for people that have a slow/bad connection. There are times that run the clock out trying to accept a race or bet due to a bad connection. Or if Im not really paying attention/ busy and didnt notice I was challenged. Everyone always thinking they are being scammed or cheated when they lose in this game when most of the time its probably not the case.

DerangedMenace · June 2016

when I go to race someone I automatically hold down the gas, when they lag "waiting for player", I wait until "ready to race, 3,2,1" and time my launch as usual and the lagger will almost always still lose.

I'm not sure either of you have been legit light lagged. I've been in races against myself where I am transferring cars from account to account and gotten a countdown. That doesn't necessarily mean cheating. I'm taking about some scumbag doing whatever it is they do that makes the lights jump. There is no way to time it because it's not a predictable countdown.

Furthermore, the solution is simple. If there are connectivity issues before a pink race make it invalid.

Not connectivity issues during the race, because we know that people who are losing would just mess up the connection on purpose.

If we could make races with connectivity issues before the race actually starts invalid there'd be no advantage for the light lagging d bag.

Honestly, it irritates me when people defend cheaters. It makes me think that these people are also cheaters. You don't see many legit people jumping on here defending cheaters. You see cheaters defend cheaters. Just my opinion, maybe I'm wrong

Dozerboy · July 2016

Your right that wasn't what I was talking about. That doesn't happen very often to me, so I just attribute it to poor programing of the game. With the problems this game has it shouldn't be a surprise that things like this would happen. I just know everyone is quick call out people as cheaters and hackers. I don;t think that is the case often. I have been called a cheater and I play this game for fun. I don't even take it seriously enough to Farm anymore let alone try and cheat.

I suggested a fix for this before but it seems not to have panned out but glu couldndo what the creators of 2xl racing do and run each race seperately as time trial showing an analog car that will do an average time but in the end the only thing to trust is your skill this would also fix the desynch and make light lag impossible as each players race would being whenever their internet kicks in and he other would he waiting at the finish line to see the times then if they try to light lag it counts as a dnf and rip their car (to avoid the earlier issue of ppl with bad internet losing cars simply set the connection timeout duration to 15 or so seconds and anyone actually trying to race even eith bad internet will load up light laggers are greeted with a race they waste their time running then get a dnf

RAINBHOWDASH · July 2016

But tbh i never pay attention to the race itself because its irrelevant what you see their car doing is merely what the server is trying to show but may not be accurate and as such should be disregarded and the only thing to pay attention to is the tachometer since any lag or drop in bandwith can easily tamper with what you see throwing you off this is proven as i have good internet and dont light lag but i step to a corner of my house in the middle of pinks and my car lurches back after the race says i win im called a hacker because people dont know that the server is kind of inaccurate and when i try to explain this too this im still called a hacker i ofc dont use this to get ppl overconfident i did this with a friend (and some lightlaggers

) to prove a point what you see is not to be trusted

DerangedMenace · July 2016

Bullshit, cause if you hold down the throttle as soon as you go into a race until it says "get ready to race in, 3,2,1," then let off the throttle on the specific light as usual, then 9/10 times you'll still win and get perfect launch. So don't give me that dumb shyt, I've been lagged a lot of fkn times.

DerangedMenace · July 2016

Don't believe me grab a 50 rated car and lag me, I bet I prove you wrong.

DerangedMenace · July 2016

Ign anybody Killa 187

nfac · July 2016

Lol.

The correct answer btw was given by racing warrior - nothing can be done about it at this time.
