HornBasher62 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) HornBasher's Intro First of all, many thanks to DocRikowski for sharing his materials, guidance and support with creating this topic. This event is an adaptation to PC of a very successful version of the one that has been created and ran by Docrikowski on [PSN] - click to see original post. --- INTRO --- 1) Objectives Welcome to the GTAF Race Leaderboards (PC)! The objectives of this "always running" event are ambitious: — to gather in one topic all the best GTAF Drivers, all the best independent Free Drivers and generally everyone who loves GTA IV Online Racing; — to organize them in a large group of players that will compete in a series of Tournaments and Cups held on a regular basis ; — to promote competition in the form of Duels among Drivers and Teams. — to use a detailed point system to keep track of the progresses and the results of each Driver,Team Ultimately the main objective of the event is to have fun competing against the best and the fastest drivers GTAF can offer. That's cause we just love to race! 2) GTAF Race Leaderboards There are 3 Leaderboards: - Drivers Leaderboard - Teams Leaderboard - Fastest Lap Leaderboard ---- MEMBERSHIP --- Become a GTAF Race LB Member. ----- Here's what you need to be a member: - Everyone can sign up to the GTAF Race LB. - When you sign up you get to choose to be in one of the 15 available teams. — (see Teams section below) - First-come, first served: if a team has already a full roster you'll have to choose one that hasn't got a full roster yet ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - CUP/TOURNAMENT - POINT SYSTEM In order to have a fair distribution of points the point system varies depending on the number of Drivers participating in one single race. Five Classes of Race: A, B, C, D, E. The points and the money awarded in each race or in each CUP/TOURNAMENT will be used in all the two displayed Leaderboards: Drivers, Team The money awarded to Drivers will always be the amount assigned by the game itself in the final score screen. — TOURNAMENT/CUP Points - Points valid for Driver LB, Team LB - Money won valid for Driver LB Class "A" Race — From 25 to 32 Drivers 1st — 18 points 2nd — 15 points 3rd — 12 points 4th — 10 points 5th — 8 points 6th — 6 point 7th — 4 points 8th — 3 points 9th — 2 point 10th — 1 point 11th to 32th — 0 points 1st Fastest Lap — 5 points 2nd Fastest Lap — 3 points 3rd Fastest Lap— 1 points Class "B" Race — From 17 to 24 Drivers 1st — 15 points 2nd — 12 points 3rd — 9 points 4th — 7 points 5th — 5 points 6th — 3 point 7th — 2 points 8th — 1 points 9th to 24th — 0 points 1st Fastest Lap — 4 points 2nd Fastest Lap — 2 points Class "C" Race — From 11 to 16 Drivers 1st — 12 points 2nd — 9 points 3rd — 6 points 4th — 4 points 5th — 2 points 6th — 1 point 7th to 16th — 0 points Fastest Lap — 3 points Class "D" Race — From 6 to 10 Drivers 1st — 10 points 2nd — 7 points 3rd — 4 points 4th — 2 points 5th — 1 point 6th to 10th — 0 points Fastest Lap — 2 points Class "E" Race — Minimum 5 Drivers 1st — 6 points 2nd — 3 points 3rd — 1 point 4th & 5th — 0 points Fastest Lap — 1 point — DRIVING CODE The CUP/TOURNAMENT Racing Events have a driving code depending on the event or on the kind of track/race. It's up to each Driver to respect the Code as much as possible since it's not possible to implement a controlling/punishing system for disrespectful and unfair Drivers. However GRIEFING in the form of road block or going backwards will not be accepted in any case and it will be punished severely. ************************** LET'S RACE!

Fast as Light and high like blunt. Beechwood City streets are not sleeping on weekends hearing their roaring engine sound blasting through the streets. Fighting for blood, money and respect, with the power of the horse in their veins, they are always racing together even when s h i t happens.

From the "sunny" sands of Hove Beach to the speed duels on the Broker Bridge, red and Russians car masters and their devilish Machines rule over the southeast side of LC.

HornBasher62 Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Thank you Doc and AJ, I appreciate it. Admiring your own work Doc? I must agree it does look sharp. Looks great, but I should throw this out there: It's very hard to get fair races (or any sort of fair competition) going on the PC version of GTA. You can modify the handling file quite easily to change everything from speed to acceleration to suspension to steering angle. I'm struggling to see a way in which you could make sure that none of the competitors are using modified handling. Mods like RealisticDrivingEFLC increase all of these factors mentioned but subtly; enough to edge out a few extra seconds per lap but not enough for it to be obvious to others you have a modded handling file. Something like BUSTED! works well on PC, as even with modified handling the lone racer is usually still using a significantly slower vehicle. Even deathmatch on PC is a crap-shoot. When I modded my weapons some time ago I also increased the damage in which they do, as well as the fire distance and increased the fire-rate on some guns. The fact that you can do all this on PC very much so takes away from the PvP nature of the game; PvP for the most part only works amongst a group of trusting friends. Yes, one thing is for sure, that you are struggling. Struggling to see clearly. I found it quite an insult that you would come here and post your negative personal opinion on the first page of our topic. We've been racing for past few years, couple days a week, and what you have just said is greatly exaggerated. Sure, there are some people with modified files, but they are definitely in minority. Heck you even forgot to mention the speed glitch (which is very common these days), all kinds of connectivity issues on top of the terrible online PC community. Listen, no matter what platform you are playing on, there is always gonna be people who think that all others use glitches, mods, hacks etc. Yes, it is obvious to a pro-players to see who's using any type of handicap. They might not always mention that to you, but you can be sure that they'll talk about it between themselves and very likely, you won't see them again. So if you are going into the woods, you must expect some mosquitoes, otherwise don't even bother going anywhere!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage88 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 (edited) Yeah, I dunno about that. I've played a lot of GTA on PC... on GTAF especially most of the gamers are modders.
