    Don't intend to make many videos about this sort of thing but I genuinely think this is a new low for bizarre tribalist sim-racing behaviour on so many levels and bizarre non conversation , made up narratives and just outright invented drama. Its quite fascinating for that alone and also a bit depressing.

      That's just where the internet is headed, been like this for some time.
      Everything is tribal now, you're either with them, or against them. Any attempt at a nuanced and contextual point of view means that you're FOR nobody, and AGAINST everyone.

    The dev was replying to someone asking if they would implement similar debris feature into LMU, I don't think it was taken out of context at all, it was directly in response to iRacing's debris update. In my opinion, the dev calling iRacing a scam and banning anyone in the discord that reacted to his comments with a salt emoji was immature and he should know better than to say such things about their competitor. It's not a good look.
    Loving this format of video, hope you keep it going.

      The post on Reddit was just the screen shot with no other part of the conversation.
      Even so it's really weird to take snippets of things decontextulise them and then argue a single interpretation as if everyone is on the same page 😂.
      Also if a person has a beef with that Dev they should ask them or if they want to make an argument they should actually make a specific argument on specific points.
      I mean let's say X person was being a dick then you could just post the whole conversation and they would look even worse.
      Whole thing is just really weard cross arguing with no real point , it's somehow worse than one of my live streams 😂.

    The lack of nuance and critical thinking in the sim racing community is insane. Something is either the best or the worst.
    For example, I've been complaining about some aspects of LMU's tyres forever, always met with disdain and disregard, now LMU's patch notes show they've made changes to those aspects. Can't wait for everyone who laughed at me to be all happy with the new changes and say it's the best thing ever.
    Like you said, maybe it's because sim racing's more popular and there are more weirdos around, but all I hope is that this brings healthy competition between all sims for them to improve.

      It's the nature of it. Doesn't matter what your hobby and interest is, get into a community dedicated to it and you will find the same tribalism, hysteria and extremes. Generally speaking, it's a vocal minority though, I think a majority of folks canbsee the shades of grey for what they are and steer clear of the largely pointless black and white discussions and arguments.
      What gets me more than this silly stuff is the amount of general negativity in the hobby. Whether its software or hardware related, seems like folks lack appreciation for just how much good stuff we have access to in 2024. We're absolutely spoiled.

    • @nismo97

      @@steveh4264 It's a shame that this behaviour is natural because I think no one wins anything, quite the opposite.
      Even if it's a minority, sadly it's the vocal one and this is what gets shared around.
      Negativity is as important as positivity if it is well directed, which is the part that usually fails.
      We are indeed spoiled compared to 10, 20 years ago, but I don't understand how with so many different options out there people are still so laser focused on defending what they like to a fault.
      I've started sim racing recently when arcade racing games became clunky and weird, only to find that simulators suffer from the same problem. By definition they should be really similar but instead are as different, if not more, than arcade games.
      Thankfully I've been able to play them all for a good amount of time, excluding iRacing but I did spend a few hours there too, and I know what each sim does good or bad and this allowed me to keep an open mind.
      Can't say the same for hardware sadly, but I'm sure the same logic applies there too.
      There will always be something to improve on, criticism is necessary to keep pushing companies to give us better products. As long as it's constructive, negativity can actively push a product to improve while positivity is usually interpreted as the product being flawless.
      It all comes down to nuance at the end of the day, I just wish the vocal people were more open minded is all.

The thread about my CPU had turned into a full blown war😂 I mean the first guy gave me a clear answer but for some reason others started to argue with each other about other things.

Not because I dislike iracing, I like it a lot, more because I'd prefer not to have the bill that iracing generates.
    Plus, until a wheel actually slaps me in the forehead from a crash, none of them are realistic. Same argument I made about counter strikes Vs arma. Not with a wheel, obviously. So I don't really get the realism arguements, from my perspective.

    iRacing is still the only place where you can consistently find racing outside of leagues. Nobody fucking cares if X feature is better over on Y game if you have to queue up with Xbox players or dick around in a server browser. (AC will always be my playground/ Wangan Midnight & Initial D Simulator)
    Long as all the LMP cars have the same deployment ability, it's really a minor issue from a competitive standpoint and yeah it needs to be fixed, but it's probably complicated for CS reasons involved with their older engine.
    Hence why they're building a bespoke game engine from the ground up.

    Telling people in the mid 2000s, to mid 2010s that iRacing was frankly sub par in certain simulation aspects, led to invariably being called poor, stupid, arcade racer, etc. even if you had some first hand experience in cars around a track, you would get hit with "nuhu because look at all these NASCAR drivers praising it!". Even if the issues with iRacing were quite obvious. Like always driving under the limit. Because if you are driving one of those Spec Racer Ford's or that intro open wheeler that is super fun to drive and exists as a mod for Assetto Corsa... Forgot the name... Anyway, if you pressed the throttle a little too much you would go: uncontrollable slide into a wall, ball of flame, death, wife cheats on you and shoots your dog, death again.
    Like how are these the cars you would give young racers to cut their teeth in? Break their teeth more likely.
    Anyway, yeah. You mentioned that iRacing was not the end all be all and you had a bunch of sunk cost fallacies giving you a hard time. So to see some of these same people now talking about iRacing critically... Well... I don't want my comment to be removed by automod.

    I'll start by saying iRacing is my go to sim nowadays and I probably spend close to 20 hrs per week using it (a high % of my free time). However I wish they would sort out two things: 1) the contact physics - the slightest contact leads to major drama; and doesn't seem real to me; 2) the tyre model (needs no more explanation). Plenty of real world drivers say this and I personally think they should have fixed these ahead of debris etc (although I'm sure what they've done with debris will be amazing, much like the rain model). Anyway that's my opinion and it doesn't mean I'm correct.

    I feel like maybe it was just me but who knows. But it feels like at times iRacing was called ice racing because of the tire model.
    I remember trying emotion Sim with an MX5 in iRacing while at an IndyCar race.
    And the slippery tires was the same thing they may have needed time to warm up.
    I remember doing it again in 2022 at a micro center. And it was better and reminded me of the assetto Corsa F1 cars. particularly from RSS.
    I did it again in 2024 at the same micro center and did the lmdh cars and they reminded me of assetto Corsa and ams2.
    The tires should tell you what's going on and if the tires are just kind of there or on ice. Then it's an issue.
    The main reason I don't really go into IRacing those because there may be a time that I just want to disconnect from SIM racing for a while and I don't want to have to keep up a subscription or anything like that.

It is actually painful to have your deeply held beliefs challenged. I've realized that most people are not interested in the truth or reality. They just want to hold on to their dearly held ideas even if they are wrong.
    Its way easier to outsource your thinking to someone else than it is to actually use your own reason and critical faculties.
    Look at American politics. Suddenly now that one side has lost the amount of public figures flip flopping on a dime is incredible. If you are the one to shout the fact that the emperor has no clothes initially they want to crucify you. But it just takes a few people who have courage to break away from the sheeple. And in 6 months all the sheeple will have all changed their minds. Allot of people are not capable of independent thought. I'm watching the same pattern play out in all sorts of human interactions. Its as if people become fundamentalists and fanatics. All because they cant stand not being right or being wrong.
    Being wrong is fantastic news. Its a moment of true opportunity to make a change. If someone cant admit fault or wrong doing, there is nothing you can do for them.
    I remember when I first started online gaming with Unreal on a dial up modem(Yes I'm old). We had a serious online community in my country. I actually met many of those players in person and we developed many friendships. I'm not sure if it was after the introduction of FB or social media but I noticed after a long absence from online gaming that the scene suddenly became very toxic.
    One of the things I love about all of the other sims apart from iRacing is the fact that there is no real voice chat or limited text chat. We can just race and get on with racing. Back in the day I would've loved to have had a conversation with my fellow gamer. In 2024 I'm enjoying online racing without any conversation. Suites me perfectly.

    Unless you're 1:1 (ie real world) then any sim is by nature limited by available resources, hence they are all good 'games' with some being much closer to an actual simulator than others. Is the compromise the devs have made acceptable to you? if yes then great if not then pick another.....

    Can't find my other comment, but I believe Forza, Gran Turismo, EA F1 are Sim arcade and the market for ture Sim racing titles is small. I believe that the developers who make Sim titles do it for the love, do it for the chanellage, do it because thiey like maths but didn't want to be accountants. Edit. F1 is bigger enough to have what EA does plus a licensed I-Racing game, and licenced stand-alone ture open-wheel sim game, things have came a long way since codemasters released F1 2010. Rally games will never be ture sim, to many variables. In I-Racing for example, it's called Formulae A, sim races don't need a career mode,.car upgrade, team building, thier want a Sim that closely resembles.the real cars with race ture car deliveries and a good online experience with everybody with equal cars, EA player want a team mode where cars can be upgraded over time, starting in a lower team and working up to a better team. Totally different.

You still cant pass the puck in open space in the NHL game in the year 2024.

      I agree you can't just find the one post that agrees with your view point and treat it like gospel and call everyone crazy and wrong , that's not what this video is about , I personally don't necessarily 100% agree with that comment either.
      The video is not really even about the specific content of what the developer was saying or not saying
      The point is
      1) taking something from one context to another with no real context as it partains to the specific issue
      2) magnifying it without posting linking or discussing full context
      3) inferring a whole bunch of things and purposely mischacterising something in the most disingenuous way possible
      4) thinking a single person from dev team represents the whole Dev team
      5) taking a single Devs comments to mean some overarching narrative
      6) taking the most disingenuous view of a comment / comments to then use it to bate negativity
      Ironically I think people could actually have a good productive conversation about MSG or things they like and dislike , about how much developers should communicate or whole bunch of things.

    Mate are u saying iRacing is now getting input from the RFactor model and therefore despite the 1.6 AMS2 update, the sliding is going to be even more sliddy because its all relative, and therefore Rieza should consider just buying LMU and take the RFactor model and place it into AMS2, even though the dynamic range will still not be on par with AC, because Max has said AC is the best and George is a liar. Talking of another George, a GT3 driver, he swears by ACCs dynamic range, and one mans boredom is another mans happy place he subscribes too, and talking of subscriptions are iRacing now bringing all these updates because of the pressure from AC EVO, even though its no threat because it plays like AMS2 i.e. a simcade designed to inflate your ego. Talking of ego, when are codemaster going to move away from the EGO engine, its old and doesn't look right and maybe EA and RIEZA should both going into a bidding war for LMU....... and breath lol This is the constant spaghetti of thoughts flowing through our heads
