Does the fuckin computer cheat? They break from 100 to 40 in 5 feet, take 90 degree turns at 70 and never skid in a turn.
I can't even follow the damn green line. I've tried with a wheel and a controller, and when I make the slightest turn on a gentle curve, I oversteer and nail the damn inner wall. However, if I try and turn the wheel hard, I make a stait line into the goddamned outter wall. If I'm to make a turn successfully, I need to start slowing down about 1/4 a mile before hand because if I try and later, taping my breaks makes me lose control.
Say I'm doing 95 and the computer behind me is doing 90 and where coming up to a turn. I take off the gas and coast to the turn (90-85) and the cpu starts gaining. I start hitting the break just before the turn and my tires lock up and I start skidding at about 50. The CPU flies by me doing about 70 and has no problems.
I finished a race once in first place, but someone hit me and gave me a whole 1 second penalty which put me last in rankings.
Am I just retarded? Is there a secret? I'm having this trouble with level 0 races. If I drove in real life like I do in this game... I think I'd be dead a few times. I think my main problem is I can't feel anything. Its hard to play with a really realistic sim when it only reacts to you and you can't react to it. I can drive 90 downtown in a 45 because I can feel how the car reacts. In Forza its just a really pretty picture.
