- We try our hand at doing some close to proper racing on BeamNG Drive, but of course with Beams incredible damage model things can go very wrong very quickly.

Whenever I play FH5 online, I think about how absolutely nobody would ever survive a race driving the way they do if there was BeamNG damage modeling
Same if they just turned damage on, I believe.
It was about 3 months ago, it was my first time drinking a stock.bmw in a long time. I locked the brakes and merdered the person infront of me. He was not happy.

Beam has so much potential and it keeps getting better as both the game and the multiplayer mod improves. There are a couple Motorstorm styled tracks on the beam repository which I think would be lots of fun to race on beamMP
They've got the base down. they just need to work on making it a 'game' now.
@@kruleworld Last few updates have made a lot of work on the game aspect. The newest one did even more, it even added an early look at the career mode that will be coming.
yeah those motorstorm tracks are fun and would be A tier content
mind sharing the name of those tracks?
Yes
This was a lot harder to do than I first thought, very fun though.
Yeah, you look like you were having a horrible time, constantly tap dancing all over the place. lol
It had to come some day, so glad proper beam racing is here
Edit: after watching in full this was everything and more I'd hoped for. I'm a fan of the fh5 vstc but this is just so much more entertaining
Nice, I've wanted to see some content like this for a long time. Here's a few tips for next time, hopefully helpful ones:
- You can spectate the others by pressing tab, or clicking them in the player list (I think). Then you can control the camera like you normally would, or you could go for action shots with the other camera modes (number keys)
- In the new update which released today, they redid the driving assistants and there is now an understeer assistant. I haven't tried it but it's probably pretty good, it should be in the 'Gameplay' section of the settings
I was getting so nervous of his cameawork LOL. Hope he uses this instead for the next one :)

Always fun to watch when people try to do proper racing in games like this (BeamNG, Wreakfest etc). Makes you wish there was more damage models like these game in the other racing games.
Really great track in this one.
We do proper racing, check us out😉
The name on Amy's number panel thing in Race 1 is just an awesome touch
Setup makes a huge difference in Beam, for both the vehicle and the controller. From default the controller sensitivity curve is completely linear, which may explain why everyone seems to be a bit twitchy with the fine inputs. Also the suspension setups on the cars are far from optimized, and can be tuned to allow for much smoother driving on controller. If you don't want to get into that though I recommend at least lowering the tire pressures a little, I've found that it helps to dampen the bounciness that racing slicks seem to have in the game.
the piccolina was OBVIOUSLY the best car
It's one of my favorite cars.
You should try pigeon racing
It actually is one of the best handling cars, the default track tune is quite underpowered and doesn't turn in as hard as the car can, but once properly tuned the thing puts up one hell of a fight with a competent driver behind the wheel. People seriously under estimate it.
as soon as it came on screen, I knew you'd be happy racing it Amy 😂 I've seen how much you like the Fiat 500, it's only natural
This was way more exciting to me personally than FH5 of FH4. :P
Have been racing some more BeamMP with friends but at max we were 4. 8 people seems to be a sweet spot
No one asked tbh
@@DarkNocta Cool
Yeah, I agree. BeamNG racing is tons of fun.
Crazy to see Limerock in Beamng, I live less than an hour away from Limerock and go there as much as possible. Great mod and very realistic
This was very fun but my god was it difficult!
Hey, I have something for you guys next time you decide to run something like this, I haven't been able to contact alex, so I thought I'd reply here, I'm the developer for Cobalt Essentials and Cobalt Radar, two mods you used in this video, the latter of which is part of a larger mod called Cobalt Motorsports, a fully fledged BeamMP sim racing mod featuring tire wear, pitting, and the whole nine yards I've been trying to reach out by email for a couple weeks but didn't hear anything back, I have a few links to some other youtubers running the mod, reach out to me and I can hook you guys up with a session running it.
this was really great fun, and i didnt do terribly honestly
Really liking the multiplayer Beam stuff. Nice to have another regular game on the channel
ive an idea for a beamMP race. everyone chooses whatever car they want, then you announce the race. itd be fun to watch a drag car try to do a rally course
This is epic, would love to see some longer races if the team can get it together and not have 90% of the cars wiped out after the first lap but some 10 laps races would be awesome.
We have those types of races, check us out😉
Actually really liked this. Beam deserves to be more than the funny car crash compelation game
I hope you keep pushing and working with the mod developers like they're wanting to. Maybe a reasonable time deduction system for resetting would offset the stragglers against the slowly wearing podiumites. A better, closer server etc
Love Russkiy falling from the sky..... 😁
I guess you would also love when cars falling from the sky in real life?
@@automation7295 It is a crowd pleaser at demo derbies.
(8:43) - That angry "beep" from a kamikaze Laddo. *XD*
as a tip for freecam spectating, alt+scroll wheel adjusts the camera speed, so you won't have to jump between fast and slow movement so often.
Thank you for picking Lime Rock! It’s the first track I learned to race on irl!
Awesome racing! More beam MP please! Thanks for the great content! 👍
Good job out there everyone! Joe really being a beast out there!
I really loved this. Would love to see more in the future.
A friend of mine was IT for Lime Rock years ago. Attended a lot of events and turned some laps myself there.
Great little road course tucked into the northwest hills of Connecticut.
This was absolutely amazing!! I want more of these with a bigger grid!
Want a bigger grid? Check us out😉
As a Lime Rock native this is a beautiful recreation, I went to their Euro Cup and GRIDLIFE events recently and it was incredible camping around the back straight. Really fun short track and I can’t wait until I can set foot in my own car one day
Unfortunately this was just not working for me, basically every car but longbow was 10x quicker than me in a straight line, not sure if lag or what but oh well, looked fun from the back!
i hope the day comes when beamng makes an official mp mode with legit races like this!
Love this because you sound like a racing announcer with your voice
Can We Race Properly??
I really hope not 😂
I guess you would also say "I really hope not 😂" about proper races in real life?
@@automation7295 for the sake of fun, maybe, in real life people might get hurt though. Just a big fan of failrace silliness 👍
I’m shocked you have never got on assetto corsa. So much potential for some epic races.
I liked watching this. The high penalty points for contact and mistakes makes it fun.
I live about 45 minutes north of limerock, and though I've never been I've spent a lot of time racing on the rack in games, and the beamng version does it justice. Also cool to see racecars drive by my house at the end of the weekend
Would love to see you guys do a video of making your own cars on automation with a price limit and designated year then export and race on my beam! Who would go the American route with a big V8 or Japanese and focus on handling with a turbo inline 4?
Beam moment
(Also RIP Russkiy, connection did my man dirty)
New to beam, I drove a bmw gt3 car today. Wow, what a joy after a few laps it was so rewarding. I really hope they'll decrease the damage model for multiplayer races the driving dynamics are great considering I'm using controller
That first race is how all of my beammp raced turn out lol. Everyone is good for the majority of the first lap and then cars start dropping like flies. Hitting walls, braking late on turns and dirty racing. It’s hard to be the point car in a race in multiplayer because you’re usually racing hard to keep the lead and you either brake too late or have someone rear end you coming up to a turn.. I find that if I start mid pack to back I can usually squeak out the win, dodging car parts on the track as I go around lol.
If Beam simulated tire wear and drafting, it would be so great for proper sim racing.
Beam has the potential to become the greatest racing simulator ever made. If they took to modelling tires like iRacing and (absolutely the last thing to focus on) the graphics while keeping a healthy modding scene it will become legendary. (Even moreso than it already is)
This is actually pretty fun to watch. Would be cool if you guys actually have a safety car.
We do😊
Check our channel😉
This mod needs extra players that would act as security, team management for each racer and a commentary, it would be a killer combination :-D
8:30 that guy was definetly trying to crash into you!! haha
''Speedbeast and Amy have got together!' - nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more!
Cool car
looks like a few keyboard players with all the twitchiness. everyone on wheels and i suspect youd get some very good racing here just like any other sim. also id love to see yall do this again on the nords ac port.
finally some proper racing in this game
Have you tried the Motorsports Playground map? Lots of great track options there, including some realistic rallycross circuits.
Having a bad PC makes your car slower on some maps is what I found out today xD
Yup, not a good time 😂
would be cool to do a race on the DTD course (maybe the ultimate endurance course?)
So cool, need more of this with some interior view.
I love Beamng but I didn't find the way to join multiplayer serveur with real race track :'(
Edit: Suggestions to make your experience racing better, and the whole presentation of the video better -
-Use the UI app that shows a top down view of the car's beams so that you can tell exactly where actual damage is and don't have to guess
-Tab to the lead car for better spectating of the race if you crash, free cam is not smooth enough and you weren't changing free cam speed to fallow people properly which made the whole spectating experience terrible.
-It makes it a lot more interesting for us as viewers to see pedal and wheel inputs, the UI apps for those also sync with whatever car you're spectating and that's likely one of the coolest features of the multiplayer as seeing other peoples either really bad jerky, or really good smooth inputs is always fun to look at.
-Consider racing from the first person view as it gives you mirrors, better ability to hit braking markers, and often looks cooler seeing the interiors of these cars. You still have the ability to look over your shoulder in first person too.
-You should utilize the upper right player list to see peoples ping and know when you can race close to them, and when you can't.
-I also would suggest trying some of the other tunes in the game, as well as making your own, because base model races are fun, the track hopper is really fun, and some of the Sport models handle far more balanced then the ultra track versions, and since they're slower, it makes close racing more possible and in my opinion makes the races far more interesting, as nobody get's way out ahead.
vvv Original comment about the "competitive"/serious racing scene. vvv
So the BeamMP racing scene, on private servers, absolutely pops off and partaking in said racing is some of the most fun I've ever had in the game, but we have a lot of rules and things to keep issues with desync in check, and people race cautiously as to not ruin anyone's race by desync ramming them.
Ultimately we struggle the most with everyone having a powerful enough computer to run the game at a high enough fps to keep everyone competitive, sometimes I can't race in a 10 player race, because I end up having less than 20fps, and go from a competent driver to someone who looks like they're moving in slow motion, obviously the lower the fps, the worse you drive, but BeamNG absolutely shines when it all comes together and people aren't struggling with fps, we have a discord community that's filled with very competent drivers, all with force feedback wheels, and all with a very good understanding of car handling and track layouts, and while it's not a perfect experience yet, far from what you get in like i Racing or ACC, the people out here are there to have fun and take BeamNG for the driving sim it is. Serious competitive BeamNG racing is out there, you just gotta be able to drive good.
You should check us out😁
The syncing has to be crazy for BeamNG with all the little components
Great race!
Alex, you stated in a previous episode Beam has excellent aero physics. Does drafting work?
while the aero physics are pretty advanced, theyre also kinda simple. each node (bit of the car) has its own aerodynamic properties but these dont impact other nodes, so drafting isnt a thing unfortunately
yoo, ive been racing in beamng for a while now, in a small community. we have a few people designated as race control who make sure everything is clean, and to decide what to do when desync happens (because it still does lol). good fun, game feels great for this stuff tbh
Hi, what's your community?
@@BeamMPSimRacing hm i wonder who is asking this lol
Its r&r ))
@@luukvanoijen7082 Great! I was just curious, have fun!
With the right tunes, and the right controls, the answer is most certianly a yes.
every racing game needs that car position graph on the bottom
Can you drive modded vehicles with this? It could be fun if each crew member raced an automation car to a set spec.
What an intriguing game.
Laddo being a great safety car: Don't you dare to pass because I sure ram you off.... not on purpose but I can't go in a straight line 🤣
This would be hilarious mixed with the random parts mod, just make sure you've all got working cars first 🤣
Nice track, very reminscent of Brands Hatch and Oulton Park.
one thing for sure, is that I suck at racing on Beam NG. Also running beam MP at about 20-ish FPS doesn't help either
also at 12:59 - it's a shame alex didn't look back as I managed to flip my car upside down after that twitch
Beam just proves that without indestructible cars, bumper walled tracks and catch up, you can not drive.
It was nice racing. But to proper race, it has to be in 1st person view haha
Not so sure you can race properly, but your attempts are surely entertaining.
Banger racing is fun n all but a real competition raises the stakes
Alex, do you think that beam could some day be a decent sim, such as assetto, iracing or rfactor? And where would you place it on a scale as of right now? Anywhere near forza motorsports or gran turismo?
It's an extremely intricate car sim as-is, the most detailed of any car game yet released. As a *racing* sim, it lacks any rules and enforcement, though you could always have a few players volunteer as marshals.
Beam is up there with AC but still needs some work with aero and tire thermals plus better MP and optimization. This game has such great potential and the 0.26 update released today brings the game a step closer to other sims.
This is ur best video more like this
arent there cars designed for destruction derby beam NG ? I think using them for racing should net closer battles without risk of borking the cars too early
You should do a something similar to Le-Mans. Make rules of construct the car in Automation ENigine Budget etc. and then race Your own bolids on a track, and even make of this track series
Multiplayer beam tourney across all the "driven to destruction" tracks when???
if you haven't done it you have to do a demolition derby, at the very least do it at the end of the race.
Could you race with the random damage mod at the same time as the multiplayer mod?
Your experience with this game seems to be paying off in the multiplayer races
Haha I love rusky at the end of the races
Forza Motorsport : Will it roll?? Ahhh the good ole days, however some BeamNG Will it roll? wouldn't be too bad
Please more of this
How do you get that little hud that shows you where every one else is
I love Beam racing
more beam required!!
Good drive =)
Looks like that Lime Rock mod includes the mountain section that was never completed in real life.
At 3:41, what is a "plasition"? Is that a place that becomes a position?
Hey Alex! Now 30.1? Did you do a pub crawl and get bloody pissed?
I racing would be a lot more exciting to watch if it was using the unforgiving BeamNG.
Maybe now that you are in the 30's club your reflexes are starting to go?
you should try to use the scintilla gt3 mod car it's so good...
rally cross multiplayer would be best or banger racing something to utilizethe physics
Actually more exciting due to the fact it's not perfect and pose's more of a challenge.
Now do one on offroading races (or rally)
Man limerock is only about 40 minutes from me I have to go there one day
Laddo always gets screwed. I end up rooting for him.
Lime Rock is a racetrack in Western Connecticut,USA
Salsibury Connecticut to be exact
Should do beamng sim racing with more world circuits
Racing in a soft body physics game that is able to calculate and simulate real physics based on every part makes for a race where you have to be careful like in real life but at least if you make a big mistake in a video game the consequence isn't your wallet.
Beam doesn't feel like a proper racer to me. Despite it simulating literally everything, it just feels floaty and weird to drive
Have you driven real cars at racing speeds?
@@WeAreChecking Real race cars? No. Regular road cars, yes. Why are you asking
BeamMP racing shines on slow cars, not fast ones... still fun tho
More beamng multiplayer pls
"Can we race."
*bold of you to assume most of the people in this session can DRIVE, let alone _race_.*
