Exactly! There is something going on with the physics!🤔

[@DBTsVrooms]

Seems that is device (or emulator in my case) related

[@denisscarlet-rot418]

Lamborghini Sian has always had bouncing issues for a long time I agree, alot of ramps aren't smooth as before I was driving Battista today and I noticed it wanted to do additional barrel rolls and would crash or land on two wheels oftenly

[@DBTsVrooms]

It's weird. it seems to be an issue of the emulator somehow for me

[@wokenmatthardy6441]

The funny thing is this issue probably happened to me many times but I never paid attention to it because I'm just focus on gameplay lol

[@DBTsVrooms]

LOL. I think you would've noticed. It's very obvious when regular ramps suddenly for no reason make you barrel roll and simple curved ranks are very often landing you on the roof. There's a massive inconsistency, bigger than usual

[@Truthseeksyou]

Glad you made this video. It’s been about two weeks now that I’ve noticed that something is off with the physics just when I figured out some things also! There’s something going on with the view things look more shaky?🤔

[@StreetBlast2007]

14:38 The car drifting on that part is pretty like the ridge racer drift style

[@yo-gaming4590]

1:35 usually that happens if u take the sector 8 last curve perfectly, but ye, for that curve its a little bit too much

[@bazuwainai1383]

that issue in Sector 8 i have seen it and it is messimg me up men you aint alone

[@DBTsVrooms]

It's weird man. it seems to be an issue of the emulator somehow

[@gabrielchibekachanda8447]

its even worse now at some point you'll do a barrel roll when you jump off a normal ramp second when going off a curved ramp to do a barrel roll the car for some unknown reason twist slower causing me to crash and this has only happened to me in multiplayer

[@DiegoRamos-rz1ks]

I have noticed the bottom of the car sort of scraping the plate in the bottom and the suspension sort of freaking out. When Ferrum did the selfies in A8 and watching some of the Research and Developments to sort of prepare for Road Test, I somewhat have a theory that the springs and dampers are like a cheaper quality and maybe the tools used to install it. I don’t know about the physics but I think the devs might need to redo it in a hot fix. I think it has to do with the game so I might recommend sending one of the videos you recorded to the devs for a physics overhaul. That’s what I can say since I don’t play this but I hope this helps. 😕

[@DBTsVrooms]

Seems the issue is specific to bluestacks, the emulator i use. Still investigating.

[@ady.1234]

Yes, indeed it is quite noticeable in the Sian. I don't know if it also happens with other cars. I use the Sian for my gauntlet and multiplayer races daily and indeed like you, sometimes, the jumps seemed way high and random wrecking/exploding occurred but I honestly thought it was my skill issues. As for the bottoming out and shakiness, I really haven't noticed.

[@DBTsVrooms]

Turns out, in my case it's because of the emulator. IDK why suddenly bluestacks decided to misbehave. im looking for options right now

[@gametube8784]

❤

[@DBTsVrooms]

:D

[@joshuadavepunsalang9279]

So that's why lately I am first in the career race lately and I can reach areas easily with very small ramps because of the physics issues also using very small ramps to make forced barrel roll is don't wreck me even through my air time is just 1second

[@DBTsVrooms]

It's weird. In my case, it seems to be an issue of the emulator somehow

[@user-jp1jw1cs4p]

I never use Sián, haven't experienced any of this with other cars, but it sure does look weird. Abnormally high jumps, weird curve and ramp sounds, weird barrels... 13:21 haha that has happened to me on the last ramp of London a lot, but never on this specific ramp, weird

[@DBTsVrooms]

Yeah. This is weird, but it seems to be an issue of the emulator somehow

[@XanChew12]

I’ve seen some of these issues even on an official version of the app on my laptop, sometimes when landing flat spins and I land backwards or hit an invisible or visible wall mid way I don’t wreck but lose all of my speed Another issue is sometimes the game has input drift and would just for some reason purposely send my car into the nearest wall 90 degrees perpendicular to the route

[@abhinavrao9380]

Dbt that bottoming in Munich is usually right on low fps it always happens Anything below 60 that screen shaking and that weird noise happens. I have so much experience with that cuz it's been a long time i was playing on 30 and 45 fps and i know the pain of that screen shake and weird noises drifting that way becomes incredibly difficult and is very annoying. Idk what your fps is in the video today but it feels as if its lagging idk it doesn't feel as smooth as all your previous gameplays and also the fact that you're now on sad might also be the reason

[@user-jp1jw1cs4p]

Back when I was also playing at 30 fps, yes, this always happened, both on downward and upward spiral. No matter if the curve was sharp or wide, it had that weird sound. Now that I have 60 fps, I never experienced this

[@DBTsVrooms]

IK we already talked about this in discord, but for future readers: It's not an FPS issue. The game is on 60FPS solid as always. It instead seems to be related to my emulator emulating it wrong? IDK yet.

[@abhinavrao9380]

I actually did all the maps that u showed in the video to see if it's happening with me and it works fine for me typical normal gameplay this has to be idk BlueStacks or Changing to ssd or something

[@DBTsVrooms]

Seems to be bluestacks somehow. IDK why it was working fine in one install, but not in another

[@4-eyes623]

I have this exact problem, but it's been with me for months now, and the physics differ from car to car, like the speed has a difference, and the car that I find has been hit the worst by this physics issue is the tomahawk, it's been vibrating everytime I play a race with and it does weird jumps all of the time.

[@DBTsVrooms]

Did you by any chance change device? that seemed to be the trigger for me

[@4-eyes623]

@@DBTsVrooms nope, just suddenly happened out of the blue

[@JuniorJesus1115]

I don't know if this is happening to my game, since I haven't played asphalt 8 lately 🤔

[@DBTsVrooms]

LOL. No worries man

[@jshayya]

this used to be a problem for me back in like 2016, any time I drift the car does those weird stuff, but now I have normal physics. never experienced the ramp issues, im pretty confused on why this is happening to you.

[@DBTsVrooms]

it seems to be an issue of the emulator somehow. Like it's emulating it wrong or something

[@damonb3939]

I have the same issues the last week or so. I play less and less.

[@DBTsVrooms]

That's sad. The game is in a sad state, irrespective of physics. No update, no new anything. It's just sad :(

[@MegoOrMongus]

Interesting. I never encounter them and i never get them having a problem for me then again i don't use emulator so 3rd edit xd: i ran test using my vulcan in the maps you did on and my vulcan never did anything weird, maybe some screen shake when landing but other than that i didn't encounter weird barrel rolls/half barrel rolls, car bottoming out, and so on. it all worked perfectly fine (and i did unboosted cuz i don't want to waste tk)

[@DBTsVrooms]

I know im late, but for future readers: Seems the issue is my emulator

[@abhinavrao9380]

Sector 8 bottoming also happens oy at low fps bro. I feel there's an issue in the latest things you've done

[@marius6359]

For me was the same and good better after I disable the stunt camera

[@DBTsVrooms]

Oh. Damn. Imma try that

[@DBTsVrooms]

Confirmed, mine is disabled already :(

[@abhinavrao9380]

13:49 it is on your game only dbt cuz I've experienced nothing like this

[@dan.nandlal]

I sometimes encounter random barrels on my phone so yeah

[@DBTsVrooms]

How about the "bump" when taking any ramp? that so far has been the most telling sign that something is wrong

[@dan.nandlal]

@@DBTsVrooms that depends on car for me, always consistent on low cars like battista but not in other cars like af10

[@JoBro622]

so many times the car randomly slid, or spun around and fcked up my runs.

[@DBTsVrooms]

I found my issue was related to the emulator. After reinstalling the whole thing, it finally worked fine

[@joonhann7585]

What platform do you play on?

[@DBTsVrooms]

I've been using Bluestacks to emulate android (to be able to record and stream and all the stuff I do on pc)

[@bookchase]

you didnt talk about that ramp on mountain city rally everyone hates because the stairs slows you down

[@DBTsVrooms]

Oh, well, that's a normal issue for just about any car any time. It's not an issue just started, which is the topic of this video

[@trashgaming853]

Due too the faster FPS when u reinstall it that is why the physics is all messed up

[@DBTsVrooms]

Faster FPS? Sorry but that makes no sense. My FPS didn't change. I moved the installation for faster load times. Framerate has nothing to do with SSD read-times

[@trashgaming853]

@@DBTsVrooms yeah ok, just thought about bringing my Idea

[@DBTsVrooms]

@@trashgaming853 Yeah, no worries. Im looking into installing a different version of the emulator and see if I can get it back to how it was before

[@INFINITERACERX]

It's not happening for me...

[@DBTsVrooms]

Yeah. I've narrowed it down to emulator. Though IDK why it was working fine before and then it wasn't

[@INFINITERACERX]

1st

[@jaydeebow6431]

The game is a shell of its former self the developers are greedy and lazy i don't even play anymore its impossible to upgrade cars and its just boring 😴

[@DBTsVrooms]

The game heavily relies on people either buying stuff or watching tons of ads. :(

[@LSC_Funmi_Kisa]

1st pin me lol

[@DBTsVrooms]

Not really first. :P
