[@artemperesada3454]

That's why you gotta adopt their mindset, the grind goes on mate 😤

[@MarcinHopa8]

„Psychopath” 😂

[@albinorhino6]

I have a theory that S rated lobbies aren’t actually full of clean drivers, they’re usually full of fast drivers who get S rating by running away at the front in slower lobbies. Then they all get together in the S lobby, have to face equal competition, have egos because they’re used to winning, don’t know how to race clean in the mid pack, and it turns into a gong show. Then they’re safety rating drops, they go back to lower lobbies, win, move back up, rinse and repeat. I’ve had clean races at all levels of SR, I’ve had dirty races at all levels of SR. Just depends who’s in the lobby with you.

[@hoshbrown41]

This… is a really good theory

[@Totone56]

Makes perfect sense actually

[@DorkyCactus]

I actually had this problem but it wasn't really ego, I know I'm bad in traffic. I can drive reasonably fast laps on an empty track, but I'm just terrible in the mid pack. I don't mean to hit the other cars, I just drive into the back of people who don't know breaking points and position myself poorly :(

Rank E is likely someone starting a new account and moving through the rankings quicker than the game assigns a proper rating. happened to me on my second account. got abuse for being rank E on pole in a A grid I have raced against German-herman many times and he has been fast and fair

The E rating is always a new account. It lasts for your first 5 races. You don't score points (dr or sr) while E rated. On the sixth race, you are given 1,000 points for DR (the high end of D) and, I think, an A rated SR.

[@tomsterbg8130]

@@supercededman Yes indeed. They'd stop partnering with you if the car looks like ass, but just like the DiRT games you can still add damage. The only problem is you can't make the car look much worse than it's original body shape.

[@sulphuric_glue4468]

They could use an Overwatch system like what CS:GO has. Players can report a dirty driver at the end of a race, and players with a high sportsmanship rating can watch footage of the race to determine if they really were a dirty driver, and can dish out judgement on the driver to lower their sportsmanship rating or get them banned (or alternatively punish the reporter for making a false report when they were the one at fault). Judgement would have to be agreed upon by at least two players to make sure the overwatcher is not trolling. Players get rewarded for doing overwatch by having their own sportsmanship rating increase, or some other reward.

I dropped down to B from S in a single race where people just constantly rammed me (daily race c / F1500 carnage). Few races later same happened again but I got punished to C because people rammed me. This meant my DR also bottomed to B since you are not allowed to have DR A/A+ with SR C :D Great system. Oh well... back to grinding back up, with even more rammers on the road on lower SR levels. Nice.

[@DemonLordGamingAC0]

Sportsmanship rating is a joke. Just like GT Sport itself. It should be hard to get SR. What's the point of having a grading system if you're just gonna give S for anyone that does hardly the bare minimum? Also a damage system that isn't imported from Gran Turismo 2 and drive-through penalties would be so satisfying

I do miss playing GT Sport after switching to a PC. But man it took 70 races and 5 2nd places to break through and win. I achieved 14 wins, and 161 Followers with my Liverys and Decals within a year. Out of my playthrough i had many times i was chased out of a win getting punted or plain penalty. After getting some wins you realize that the SR is very misleading and encounter those "SR Safe People" and just rub dirt on your progress towards a potential win. Sometimes it's good to be deranked can be a confidence booster as you are getting some wins and then reach back and actually beat a SR+ Race. We all try not to be dirty as of bad breaking points, running out of track real-estate, or very close battles. Some people never lose and ego would get in the way and take a effect on everybodys race. Most people can relate to ego and winning ways once you have won enough times. Just remember you win some, you lose some. Racing is Racing and it can get dirty were all in the heat but stay calm and collected sometimes exaggeration and emotion pollutes our clarity of a race whether getting passed, punted, penalty, or self error. I miss the competitive and Clean Racing. Hopefully GT7 Can drop on pc 🙏

GT Sport really is not a great game. its always hood views and radars? all guys do is sink it in 1mm inside and claim the whole space? dead feed back etc? GT5 crushed this arcade version.

[@JMolKoz20791]

Its sad that there are drivers like this in Gran Turismo. I use to have A and A+ rating on both my DR and SR, in the beginning until drivers found ways to cheat and deliberately dump you in tight corners. I've tried so hard to be as clean and as quick as I can be for years, but now I'm at a point where I just don't care about improving DR and SR anymore. I mean what's the point if no one else around you is gonna race you clean anymore? Some people are just really dumb on this game and do not care about sportsmanship and its really sad
