2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
Will you all shut the fuck up and appreciate what Barrington does for us? I know you're trying to criticize and make it better, but you look like dumbasses. I think you're all failing to realize that this is still a VIDEO GAME and that it won't be exactly identical to real life. Appreciate what Barrington does for the community, because without him and the whole rF crew, this game wouldn't be shit anymore.
All of the tracks in my opinion have been badass, and I haven't had problems with any of them. Maybe you guys are having problems with the tracks because of the lack of skill? Not exactly sure. Thanks Barrington!

Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
I have. We're racing 2017 now. If the bike can do it people are going to do it. Don't make shitty berms when there's other ways to "fix" it. And you don't need to try to fix things most of the time they will sort them out. I can go quad single off the start every lap? Was I? No because it's a bit more inconsistent and not necessarily faster. Most people went 3-3-2 when we could ALL do 3-4-1 but it wasn't faster. We could all go over-3-4 in the 3rd rhythm but we did on off triple triple. Because it was faster. And same with before the finish. Most of the 450 class could quad before the finish but we chose not to because it wasn't faster. That's 4 quads on one track that aren't faster. So don't try to limit the quads so much by making terrible berms. Wouldn't you rather have people actually enjoying your tracks?barrington314 wrote:That is my point. And you want faster berms.

We already can quad before the finish with the berm, that is there,

And it wasn't a rage text about the whoops, it was a first thoughts "wtf are the whoops", just because the lighting makes the 2nd set a pain in the ass too see since they're really shiny and throws you off. I wasn't raging or complaining just asking, bro. You know I like your tracks more than anything but when I think things can be improved I let you know

Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
On a side note, would it be possible to update the first post each week with all the track links like has been done in the past? Don't worry about it if it's more trouble than it's worth, it'd just make it easier to keep up with all the tracks when switching from laptop to pc coming to and from school, rather than digging through this thread or the tracks section.
Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
My berms were 5 feet high had a slope of .5 down to 2.5 feet and a smooth rollout for the rest. For 90 degree turns I used a .75 slope. I originally had them steeper but I think I mellowed them out to widen the racing line.barrington314 wrote:How A1 and most of A2 are... (that's right, some of these berms are straight from A1)

How your drawing says it should be...

Go back to a JLV SX and then tell me these berms aren't cupped. They are damn near twice as tall too. If I cup them any more, you guys will rail around them at 50 mph and quad into everything.
Two turns before the finish = quad.

There are a couple I wish I would have done better (like after you go under the bridge and the following one and perhaps the one before sx triple) but the rest I say aren't bad and I have my reasons.
As for the whoops that you rage text me about... 100% the same gradient used as A1. Only differences are the entry to them from the berms. (distance).
To all. Traction has been the same and probably will stay the same with the exception of Daytona. You can find that in your saf if you question it. I see some were smart enough to actually check.
I just don't know how to live anymore without Awood S'ing my D on the forums all the time. :cry:

Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
I'd rather have 5 foot tall berms. Certainly no more than 6. But it is what the people wanted. Now they want more.jlv wrote: My berms were 5 feet high had a slope of .5 down to 2.5 feet and a smooth rollout for the rest. For 90 degree turns I used a .75 slope.

I think the first post belongs to Checkerz and he has been away from home.

Nobody needs taller, just more cupped. less ( and more (barrington314 wrote: I'd rather have 5 foot tall berms. Certainly no more than 6. But it is what the people wanted. Now they want more.
and you berms dont have .5 slope, so yours are mellower than JLVs from the pics you provided.

Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
After watching tonights race, I didn't see a single berm that was "cupped" like you want them to be. The ones on sim looked identical to the IRL ones!

Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
my problem with the berms this week was jumping to far into the berm would explode my forks on certain turns, but slowing down and riding more realistically stopped that, i think berms were okay but i would like to see berms like they are coming in, but on the exit be more scooped out like awood said. Perfect balance.
Re: 2017 rF Supercross (Pro and Amateur)
I think the berms this year are perfect. Takes throttle control instead of being on rails.
