RIDE 5 - How To Improve Braking - Helpful Tips

[@sumitupadhayay2270]

Finally a youtuber who reads comments and is actually dedicated enough to work on em. Thanks buddy❤

[@DrAce46]

I do my best, cheers mate 😁😁

[@CrossPlaneCraze]

Idk if you noticed this but, in r4 we usually use the brakes to tighten the line in case we're running wide... but in r5 letting go the brakes completely actually helps more in that regard. Also I noticed that in r5 if you miss the brake marker by a tiny bit there is a huge chance to completely miss the corner all together... precision is paramount! More than ever

[@TheNightstalker80]

tanks for the ABS hint! I started playing yesterday and it felt unplayable... I ran ultra wide on every corner because the bike never seemed to brake as it should. I got used to it after a few tries but still couldn't get consistent cornering. Also the weightshift on tight corners still gives me headace, when you ride a real bike that's all natural and just happens automatically but pushing and pressing sticks and buttons without feeling the bike is extremely hard.

[@DrAce46]

Glad it helped! :D

[@MrLoader12]

Great video, Ride 5 is more difficult than Ride 4 but it's also more responsive and closer to real riding in my opinion. Looking forward to more guides ✌

I disagree. I think ride 4 is more realistic. I'm on ride 5 with a gsxr1000, full throttle coming out of a corner with all assists off and the front wheel barely comes up. I don't get it

[@Brenno097]

This video has helped heaps. Im knew to ride series just getting ride 5, but ride motorcycles in real life and go to track once every 2 months. Been struggling with the 600cc series time attack challenge. All the races im very competitive in the game with balanced ai and intermediate settings but couldnt get the bike to stop hard enough in the time attack. Now i know this i will turn abs off and see how that goes Also watched your riding 4 tips, and leaning back has definitely helped too

[@DrAce46]

Hope the advice helps and you can tackle that time attack 🔥

Hi DrAce, I've played every Ride iteration but find that the physics in 5 are so good I need to re learn some of my tactics...particularly the braking! you're lessons here are very sound and made me realize that I'm a ham fisted idiot, thank you for pointing out the effects of the ABS to which in the past I have relied heavily on...but no more. I am a changed rider because of your tutelage and thank you immensely!! stay cool my friend, see you on the track.

[@DrAce46]

[@Mad_Doctor_K]

Honestly the “just relax” tip helped soo much

[@dekeaustin]

I like to raise the slipper clutch and downshift along with the front brakes and use the rear break for trail breaking if necessary.

[@flyg13]

My man, thank you for taking the time to make a video like this. It’s pretty clear that this is a very common issue for players to get the hang of. What are your thoughts about Anti wheelie and engine breaking? Thanks again for the great video, you’re the man!

[@DrAce46]

My pleasure! Got more guides coming soon. I keep anti-wheelie on low and engine braking is always set to 4 👍🏻

[@messiahshow]

The more I play Ride 5 the more it blows me away. In my opinion they pretty much nailed the physics to how I at least enjoy it. Sure you can question the understeer at times but if you look at speedometer it makes sense. It's more that the sense of speed at that low speed is misleading so you overshoot it. The Great acceleration and speed with the beautiful smooth and creamy stability makes up for it. I loved Ride 4 yet I never did 30 laps in a row on Road America and just wanted more. The physics are highly addictive and I love it and can't get enough! The helmet cam is super immersive and really exciting to use. Good video man, I am also playing around with ABS trying to understand what it really does in this game and if I want it or not.

[@DrAce46]

Agreed dude, RIDE 5 is epic! Thanks pal 😁😁

I've found that ABS 0 works best if the bike can handle it. Some bikes can but there all different which I think is awesome.

[@mitch846]

The only thing i need to improve is the release of braking and start to accelerate really gently, jumping from Racing cars sim to ride 5 is always traumatic 😂

It just takes time mate, it's the same for me when I try cars. You'll get crack it mate 👍

[@mrdcato]

On Playstation I use square for brake, circle for upshift, L2 for downshift (kinda where my downshifting would happen on a real bike), and R2 for throttle.

[@NudaMan]

That’s different lol I use square for downshift and circle for upshift, X for rear brake tapping

[@mrdcato]

@@NudaMan - I think early on in the mid/2000s I felt the brake on L2 was overrated and I could acheive the same result using square as it too has sensitivity awareness. I like to keep my steering hand and use of L3 as free as possible with the exception of a quick downshift if needed because sometimes steering adjustments are needed going into turns. Lastly in real life my clutch and shifter were on the left...so it feels more natural to me.

You can still brake like that with ABS on 4, if you do without though you lock tire and get lots of wobble so you lose your racing line way easier.

The ABS! My lap times were getting nowhere, and I didn't know why. AI's been breaking later and getting out of the corners faster than I. ABS=4 is yuck. Down to ABS=1, and it's much better. Down to ABS=0, and I get worse, for now. That'll need practice, but I like how it feels.

interesting I seem to bet the bike stopped better and turn in better when slighty pushing the weight to the front under braking... I also tried pulling back but that led to me having to consistently brake earlier to avoid running wide

[@PaulHeadrick-sz3sg]

Sometimes when i take corners i don’t really accelerate well any tips for taking corners?

[@DrAce46]

The acceleration comes from getting the corner entry right. I would imagine you’re braking too deep and then trying to get onto the power which is causing understeer. Try focusing on getting the apex hit and then bring the power on when the bike is pointing directly out of the corner. But if not and it’s just the bike is slow, try reducing the Traction control and Anti wheelie. Hope that helps

[@oneschance]

I totally disagree with that controller layout. 😂 X = downshift Square = upshift O = rear brake *my brother doesn’t like my setup

[@EliteTactical]

am I insane? I SWEAR bots are able to go FASTER at lean than I am? No matter what I do I feel like in the corners is always where the bots catch me no matter how smooth or fast I take it, I could be full throttle taking the corner and the bots will just slam into my rear tire like i'm on a 300.

[@ShanDiegoMG]

What ever you’re using , tap ya throttle while in your corners . So for me I’m in ps5 so I’ll hold L2 for the front break , will let go for half a second , and when I let go I’ll tap R2( throttle ) and will tap L2 front break again and then you should be able to either tap or r2 ( throttle ) again really fast so pass them or you should be at apex and can hold R2 ( throttle ) and fly out

[@DrAce46]

Are you braking too early for them to bump you? Or are you going wide for the corner when they catch you up?

[@EliteTactical]

I'm not sure I don't feel like I have a problem w/ braking. Sometimes I mess it up but I'm always smooth and can 9/10 times out brake the bots, but I just get the feeling they always catch me in the corners. I know I'm doing something wrong when it happens but I haven't figured out what it is yet.@@DrAce46

I've been using dual brakes but after watching I'm going to try the same braking system as you, I've been trying everything with the Abs and still can't figure out which is good for me, I do find Ride 5 harder to control than Ride 4, I'm also struggling with turning corners and spend a lot of time going off track.

[@DrAce46]

I would never recommend joint brakes. The game will apply the rear brake in unnecessary moments causing the rear to slide. I’d advise for you to stick to one ABS for 10 laps or so and then change to others and see what works for you 😁

New player here, do you use linked brakes? I presume not. Also before I jumo into career I wanna learn the tracks a bit, have a basic understanding of it. Is it a good idea to first turn on the racing line for the first few laps, and simply turn it off after a few laps? Basically before I do the career I want to learn the tracks, the full layouts that is, I think I'll get the hang of shorter versions no problem provided I know the track. I ride with no electroics apart from AW 1-2 and engine braking, for me there is no point of learning with TC and ABS, because had I turned it on, I would have to then learn a completely different riding style. Actually another question. Best starting AI for a new player? I want a challenge but I don't want them to just storm away either.

[@DrAce46]

I don't use joint brakes and would advise not using them. The game has a habit of using the rear brake when its not needed. I personally dislike the racing line as I find it encourages players to focus on the line and not learn the track. The tracks already have so many refernence points to guide the riders round so it would be more effective to just learn those instead. Don't get me wrong the line is very useful for when you don't know a track and it's dark as it shows you the way, but I'd advise ditching the line the second you learn the braking points. You'll benefit so much more during the racing when you get pushed off the line and can adjust. For A.I you will have to just to keep trying different difficulties until you find what works. The A.I are fast in some tracks and then terrible at others you see. Also I only play at 120% so I don't know how competitive the other difficulties are. I hope that helps :)

[@_getnoobednxgen1897]

@@DrAce46 thank you for the very detailed response! Yep, I would turn off the line anyways after 3-4 laps, but this encourages me to not use it at all,or use it just for markers in riding school (Ik it was a feature in previous rides, so probably still is) learn the limits, and try to memorize markers from the start. For now I played at friends house, because I'm saving up for the gaming laptop that can smoothly run ride 5. Buying it mid November tho. I will definitely join your discord then!

This is not a Dig at you more what should be happening !! please read this again do not get upset, you should not be turning off ABS Advance Braking System in the game, I will tell you why, if you read up on ABS you will find it is an electric system using a chip computer to pinch the front and back disc so many times per second with each setting pinching to a higher extent, the fact is it will stop the bike wheels without locking them up (this is a FANTASTIC INVENTION) that I have yet to see put into any bike game, in practice setting one would pinch at a slow rate, two a bit more and three very high, these setting would and should be used on the fly down straights, cornering etc, I really wish they would program this into the game as in your test right now you would go I am on a 110mph straight I need setting 3, I am coming to a corner Setting 2, I would think the riders race style would come into play also, some I like to hit the breaks hard some might go soft BUT the ABS setting should let you do this ...PUT THIS INTO THE GAME and people will buy it !! the fact is you would in real life miss ABS so much if it didn't work you would not ride the race, I only wish I could find the show "tomorrows world" showing the bike come from over 100mph to a stop in a matter of feet, my jaw dropped as at the time I was a biker !! tip for the game makers make ABS work show that it does in the game, let Dr Ace show on setting 1 it take me this time to stop, setting 2 this amount of time and 3 this amount, Turning ABS off show you are not implementing true ABS into the game Dr Ace should be RAVVVING about ABS Not turning ut off !!

[@DrAce46]

Yeah, that can be an issue. It’s best to start off with the smaller bikes and slowly work your way up the 1000’s. You’ll find the 600’s handle much better. Try the Yamaha R6. It’s great 👍🏻
