Day 24 of asking Nick: Nick please do a cops and robbers in Forza Horizon 5 that starts at the yellow church in gutajarto to Buena Vista on the west side of the map while driving a Renault 4L Export (upgraded) while the other guys drive Crown Vic's while only one can choose a super car! But all the cop cars have to be painted with the "Nick Patrol" paint job to make it extra spicy! PS love your videos. Keep up the good work plus the comedy you make me and my brothers laugh every time we see one of your videos!

It's kinda strange watching someone play a game and be worse at it than you are. Just watching a person trying to get used to it and get into the game, it's fun. CarX has been, for a while, a game I'd hop on in the evening to chill. Haven't played in several months and there's new stuff now too

A tip for controller that can make you extremely smooth, is to roll the sticks. To roll the sticks, basically but the stick all the way up, and then roll to the side, easy as that.

[@lukereyes6266]

Tbh I don't roll the sticks, but I also don't flick them, I keep the movement smooth since the game countersteers for you

[@EBunknxwn]

@@lukereyes6266that’s how i use to drift but i switched to rolling only because i has to adapt to the players in the game

[@lukereyes6266]

@EBunknxwn that's fair, when I attempt to tandem I use the stick and throttle (or lack thereof) to rotate my car, yk?

[@cam_e6195]

To that you can use that in other games as well I use it in Forza sometimes and acc

[@ReggieMan85]

Yeah I do very similar, roll and flick if needed had to learn it years back for forza as in the replays it used to look horrible 😂

[@Conan_jp]

This game definitely needs patience but when you get it right it’s a lot of fun

[@BestInPlayz]

I got really good at it and been playing it like crazy

[@jaredbrockman9316]

This, it has a learning curve for sure, at first I hated doing the top 32 comps, but I just kept pushing myself to do it, and now with the combo of practice, and just using the basic universal tunes, I'm throwing down 100 plus runs which feels awesome

[@420cm]

10h in and i already good, not good good, but good enough to enjoy the drift scene

[@lynnrussell2699]

True

[@SmokeyWolf]

As a veteran player and creator for CarX, here's some of the best things to try Nick! Car meets / tandems at Red Rock Drift jumps at Ebisu Downhill drifting at Kami Road touge / Castle Road Top 32 competitions Wheel drifting! Trying steam workshop mods KINO mod menu! Modded maps / JapanX Glad to see you back on CarX, the game keeps get better with every update, enjoy!

[@jacobrev6567]

Finally I been waiting for Nick playing the Car X Drift this year

[@SmokeyWolf]

Welcome back to CarX Nick! I still remember your last CarX vid 😅 If you need any help with mods, steering wheel, tuning etc I'd be glad to help you out. I make a lot of the YT tutorials for CarX 😉

[@JDHBASS2448]

I personally think it's a blast to play from time-to-time. It's a great game to just zone out and just slide. It's not ALL that different from its state in 2021 I'd say, but they have made some great improvements over the years. I see it has already been said but "rolling" your sticks is a must for controller. I personally have the controller assist on which can make initiating a little weird but it basically steers automatically after you initiate but then you roll the sticks to control the amount of counter-steer. It's almost a slight inverted feel at first but makes for extremely smooth drifting for controller. I also like tuning the cars a bit and have much more fun with my tire adhesion turned down. Just my 2 cents.

[@cam_e6195]

That’s crazy cause I run 120 adhesion on all my cars😭

[@Suprapunk_2248]

Right?! I usually turn music on low enough to still hear the car and before I know I've been drifting for over an hour or two 😂

[@Luminary_V2]

One of the hardest things I’ve ever watched 😂 Keep practicing my dude! 🤙🏼

[@aFISHlememes]

Nicks uploads always make me smile

[@NikoDriftPie]

so nick just pointing this out there if you move the joystick slowly with steering it makes the drifting alot smoother like you dont need to flick the joystick at all just slowly push it to either side like its a steering wheel and the game countersteers for you

[@lukereyes6266]

Yup! I tell my friends that all the time and they act like I'm fucking crazy

[@MaSTeRY0SHi_882]

When I first played Carx back in 2020, I didn't really invest my time into it and plus I had no clue how to make cash. Down the road I tried it again after the updates and fell in love with it. If you're wondering how I got back into CarX, it's all thanks to Phonk music and these videos.

[@SKYLINE32_YT]

Nick you need to put it on the ultimate setup the drift setup was to grippy for the Aston Martin to slide well tune it with the ultimate setup next time it will be a lot more fun to drive

[@thatbrokegamer.]

the customisation in this game... is far superior to fh5

You definitely gotta try wheel on this it’s much smoother

[@Sentient6ix]

Just saw a short of this game on Sayaka's yt channel. Was curious about it. This looks pretty dank

[@dylanshue7835]

CarX is SO much better on wheel, just for the smoothness. you should try it!

[@Xero-rr2ol]

wheel n controller are no different tbh. just gotta get forza out of ur mind because its different

[@SharkRacer5]

Weird because from the title thought you would loved this game since...you Nick love drifting cars so much in Forza

[@ReggieMan85]

Absolutely love this game and the updates just keep making it better. Was always a forza motorsport fan when it came to drifting on console but this blows it out the water

[@BlissifiedHH]

It's for sure a fun game especially if you are consistently playing with the right people/crowd. It can get boring really fast if you are just in random lobbies.

Hit 51,XXX points last night in Springstone with an Ultimate IS300 after only a few hours of playing for the first time and messing with different things in the game. It's not that hard to figure out.

The fact that I get 70k minimum in springstone makes me feel better

i like how in FH5 nick always complains abt "the tires not sticking out enough" but here he says "nope thats too much"

[@supermanhlp]

Thanks for the upload in regards to this game that I was curious about, but I'm also curious as to why you talk like them tik Tok folks?

[@Xerxes1337]

I'm considering buying the game but I suspect it's too arcadey and has physics that make drifting easy on purpose, compared to Assetto Corsa which is a car game with realistic physics first, where you can also drift. I mean drifting in Drift21 and Forza is fun but doesn't feel right.

[@DylPickle-rz8vv]

I love your videos nick. It’s Makes my day. ❤

[@BabyMandingo]

I use it in vr on my moza wheel but it is a last resort type thing. It is much better on controller but too arcade like to me

The kino mod is a good mod because it has alot of things that carx is missing

Finnaly he jumped back in. Made a comment about it many months ago. You can buy it for 10 bucks and it has better customization then need for speed,the crew and a lot of other games wich is weird because they cost 7 times as much.

I know nick hates mobile racing games but I have one good game (probably), it's called assoluto racing it has some official circuits like nurburgring and tsukuba even EBISU. It has licensed car too like porshes and mclarens

mannnnnnn car x pro here (not) but i’ve been playing since the game came out pretty much i will say the game can get boring but with friends it’s hella funn you’ll get to a point where you only like and run a certain amount of maps but other than that this games awsome the community is great and all the good players are familiar with each other or know of one another. this is the typa game where u have to find that “good player lobby” to see all the action and the games full potential

Without even watching the video, and from personal experience of understanding development and how this game is coded... No, its not a good game, and its only gotten worse. Same with CarX Street. Its like every year, the CarX dev team gets fired and replaced with cheaper Fiverr developers. There's a money exploit on CarX Drift I show off on my channel. You literally just down grade the game, give yourself the money, then upgrade and it saves all the money

[@paragonrukus8368]

Single player L.A block. Use a slower car that can maintain angle and use that for your lead. Then use the mustang and get on its door and stay on it. Keep matching angle, if the circle above your car isn’t full for like more than a second then you won’t get a 100 point chase. At least that’s what I noticed. Don’t worry about hitting the zones on your chase, just stay on its door and maintain that same angle, you’ll get it 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
