New UI

We're all eagerly anticipating it, but can we remind ourselves we all can currently race online together, right now!
I'm online every night looking for pick up races there's hardly a soul around.
Come on guys stop talking let's start racing.
Go online, search S397, join Bathurst, dust your favorite GT3 off and let's go.

Something must also be done with AI only races (almost all of them) showing up in the server list when one has the "has players" box checked. AI are not players and I am sure I am not the only one miffed; having to download new mods, tracks and cars just to find all in the server were AI!. This particular problem needs rectifying now a.s.a.p. I know of many who have left the game out of frustration over this. Couple it with a ghost town multiplayer lobby surely equals low sales.
Click to expand...

AI`s are easy to discover.
Steam > view > Servers > Highlight server > Right click with your mouse > View server info > Time > All AI`s have same time.
You can have Game info open and just use Refresh button when you move to next server.

I think because you were looking for servers with real drivers. If you sort by the number of players, then it would take less time to figure out which ones have real drivers and which ones do not.
 
Yes, but only ten servers showed up, and to make sorting even easier only one was not empty. So I found the suggestion a bit strange.
 
Thanks guys, that was helpful.

So far there are twenty servers with more than five participants in it, most is only AI, there are some with one real player. And only one server is truly going on (bathurst endurance). I would like some pick-up racing, but I'll try to enter endurance for a few laps lol

I think the state of 'pick-up' racing is on life-support, at least as far as rF2 is concerned. You might benefit from a league that offfers practice servers for all events. That way you could drop in whenever and possibly find a familiar face from time to time. Best of luck.
 
Hi all!
My doubt with new UI is how to do race event to play online. Does anyone know a guide or link with instructions about that? Thanks!
 
The 'New UI' is okay. I don't see why so many are up in arms. It works though it has bugs and has been causing all kinds of freezes which the old one never did.

I never had a problem with the old UI. There are only about 6-7 places one needs to get at to either setup the system or your activities and it did that well enough even though it wasn't pretty. I'm not there to sit and admire a UI, I'm there to race.

For all the hype and effort into the new UI and there is still no 'Pedal Box' or 'Wheel Input' indicator like iRacing. As well, still no on screen Delta unless you use a 3rd party Dash/HUD.

The replays used to show Lap Number, Gear, Speed, Splits, Pedals and a G-Force indicator and now, far less and it's not nearly enough.

As well, during replays, if I'm one of three or four cars battling for positions, Keypad +/- should cycle to the next car either forward or back NOT jump around all over to cars everywhere but those next to you.
