Forza Horizon 5 - Clips - Dirty Bois

So this is fairly typical racing in Horizon. Firstly, this player made a mistake all on their own. This allowed me to get along side. We're both going for the same checkpoint and there's inevitable contact. They can claim I divebombed, I can claim they were not watching or listening to what was happening around them. Either way, in order to get some "pay back" this Horizon Superstar throws themselves at me, miss and hit the wall instead. Good job.

So one of the many issues with FH5 is the racing standards. Far too many players are quite happy to take advantage of their mistake putting someone else out. This is a series of two clips.

Someone barges past me, I get pissed, catch up and barge back past. I.E. I respond in kind. Some see this as justified, me I don't like that I did it and I don't like seeing this. I'd much rather maintain the moral high ground - especially given I loath revenge rammers - and try to avoid doing this sort of shit these days.

This to me though is dirty rather than outright rammy. I get that they may have different ideas about that though - Turn10 might too!

So this fuckwit steams into the first corner, braking as an afterthought, pushes me out the way and uses another player to slow down. Next corner they go for the apex knowing I am there already. I stand firm after their first corner antics. They make contact and it bounces them to the wall. Then ultimate proof they're a fuckwit, they try for the next apex. This time I've got the high ground. I could have made room for them, there was tons of space on my left, but fuck this cunt. Idiot then tries to stick it out through the apex and misses the checkpoint.

I'm more ambivalent about this sort of revenge TBH. While I absolutely deliberately chose not to move left to give this fucker some space, I don't see it as an issue and I'd be surprised if Turn 10 gave two fucks about it.

Am I a dick for thinking they're a dick? I was responsible for initial contact it's true. It was light but it was my fault. I could have just lifted or braked and held position. At the time I thought "maybe they'll see me coming?" I've no idea why, hardly anyone ever does and I sometimes don't too so that was wildly optimistic thought.

That all said, I've no idea what went on in their head. Did they get annoyed and pay in kind, it just worked out a little dirtier for them. Did they just hope I'd notice them coming?

I think ultimately in FIA terms they may have been in the wrong for both instances - they where all over the place which was why I was closing so fast and they maybe should have been paying attention to closing cars. The divebomb is 100% illegal especially given they hit the wall too.

But in Horizon terms 1st contact was likely my fault and the divebomb was righteous retribution.

Fucker just pushed people into a wall to pass them. What a cunt. Given fannybaws here ended up stone cold last, I'm fairly certain an few others had some choice words for this welt.

There is a small cohort of Horizon Superstars who wear the Clean Racing Skills badge (pink heart beside their gamer tag) but engage in a bit of decidedly unclean racing. fluffy0091 is a good example of that sort of douchebag.

The Horizon Superstars in this Trial clip all, ALL, ALL OF THEM forgot brakes fucking exist!

 SubtiltyBeret51 doing their bit to ensure the "Bone Shaker Driven By Cunts" legacy continues.

One of those "I've no idea how to race" types. Hey ho.

Where do you start with these fuckers!?!

First hit comes as I go through the checkpoint. I couldn't be more out of this fuckers way without slowing down to let them past. This hit, on the rear quarter, destabilises the car - it is a PIT manoeuvre after all - this means I'm further left than normal but there's still a full car width there - but that's not nearly enough room for this wank stain. He keeps pushing and pushing till he gets bored then straight up rams me off the road.

Looking back at this, not sure about it. Sure it was "a little bit wooo, a little bit waaaay" but is it any worse than anything I've ever done. Wouldn't the fuckstick AmzLeonard (above) say similar. I guess the difference is I didn't ram this bugger into bits & bytes in retaliation.

This is one of those entitled cunts who thinks anyone slower in front of them is blocking so should be rammed out the way.

"Bro you always closes the door when I want to Overtake you..."

The implication of that statement is that they don't have to overtake cleanly, ramming someone out the way is fine because they are faster.

Kids eh?

So nounourscoss here is a dirty fucking prick for pushing off the road in their defence. It's too fucking far. Squeeze, sure but leave a cars width. This twat put me in a bush and a wall to block me.

What stuns me more is the Turn10 response: - 

Hello orangepeel9262,

You are correct, this is one of those situations that straddles the line of what is and what isn't "intentional". As always, please report anything even those things that may seem trivial, we'll take it from there :)
Thank you,
Forza Safety Team

Oooft! Bad hit on II Anointed II , took the place too! Dirty Bois level racing there!

So "toxic" seemed a bit strong, then I watched the entire race and it seems more appropriate.

This fucker barged a fair few people out their way. Fairly standard fare for The Trial. They also did this over multiple races with multiple people.

In the first pair of clips, I think they try to block me, fuck up and slide into the wall. This is somehow my fault and in the next clip they try to crowd me off the track.

In the second pair of clips, this idiot went into a narrowing chicane right at the race start and thought that was an ok place to pass. When it didn't work, the second of the two clips from this race is their response.

So this is multiple clips all from the same [FASK] club.

In the first clip, SrGlacius seemed to take exception to my horn blasts. This results in the ramming to end the first clip.

In the second clip, SrGlacius has obviously told his minions and now they want to play too. In this second clip I think AxelEJ9 pumps me up the rear, this allows Darkmet001 to slip up the inside. BULLET yZ follows through but because their car is similar in colour and shape to mine, I think Darkmet001 confuses him for me and rams them off the bridge.

In the third clip, Darkmet001 has really taken to his role as club bitch and is doubling down on the ramming and griefing.

The forth clip is more of Darkmet001 being a dirty wee toalie.

In the fifth clip taking this to the third race we have the turd who instigated all of this double teaming me with his other sex toy AxelEJ9

So first clip, they missed their braking point in the heat of battle. No biggie. No apology either though.

In the second clip, I'm still salty about them fucking me up earlier so decide to not give two fucks about what happens to them either. And so starts the great war of 16th July 2022

In the third clip, this player with worse brakes than me thinks they can out-brake into a heavy braking zone - with predictable results.

In the final clip, Dhurin1970 proves one more time what an utterly contemptable player they are.

So this isn't really that bad. A bit of rubbing. Done much worse myself. But I think it that last hit was the proverbial straw. They had no business being that far to the right of the road given the approach to the next corner was coming up fast.

Another day, another bone shaker driver being the dirty little bitch they are. The initial tap and pass was fairly typical horizon fare, the blocking at the finishing line is pure Horizon Superstar

So here we have this asshole, M4LV4DA0, who managed to put themselves in a position to get put outside a checkpoint. It was ghost mode, they did this to themselves. When ghost ended they where to the right of CarthiticChaos2 who likely didn't even know the dipshit was there. And M4LV4DA0's solition to missing the checkpoint? Ram CarthiticChaos2 into a wall.

This is one of those where I'm looking back and thinking... what's yer fuckin problem here peelio? you've no done worse likesy?

I suspect at the time I got triggered by just how long I waited for this one to make a mistake, once they did, straight back to the racing line then a moan about contact (I assume the horn blast was them moaning - but I guess could be apologising). When I do finally pass, they keep their boot in with a car with less cornering ability. It's inevitable they'll end up in my side, then the fucker takes the position.

So it might not be clear who's the instigator here but I'm 100% convinced it's LePepeC. I think he's pushing zobe2976 into me because he's an arsehole of galactic proportions.

So this dude knew I was there. There was some rubbing so they can't have benn ignorant. They then deliberately stay very wide to block me out of the checkpoint. I know this is racing. I know I put myself in a dafty place and I know I've done this to others (never knowinly or to an innocent) but there's something deeply cynical about someone doing this.

Bone Shaker: Check
Cunt Driver: Check

Bit of an argument as to who is the dirty boi here. Them or me. I could have braked - in fact if it happens again that's likely what I'll do as watching them spear off in the direction they where pushing would likely be quite amusing.

However while you could say it's me for forcing my way though, what about them? There's a leaderboard, there's a mini-map - both tell you there's actual players around you, teammates, so the car your pushing is ON YOUR FUCKING TEAM!

How horrifically insecure is Dadem7954 that they have to block and ram to take a personal win in a team race. We'll ignore the fact they where only in this position because of the teamwork of other players. 

This is a series of clips over several races with the great big steaming pile of shite known as ZumZumbao

So I'll concede I hit this dude first. I mean it's kind of just racing really. Nothing obviously malicious but I get that from their side it might not feel like that. That is why I take a beat after contact. I won't go immediatly in. Just like in the first clip (note I did pump that other player right at the start of this first clip - not sure how that fits in with my racing moral code!)

Second clip, more rubby but not really that bad. I'm certainly not pushing them off their line and taking their place. Most of the contact is either a relativly gentle bum rub or side on side.

Third clip, again not perfect but hardly dirty.

Fourth clip - no contact pass.

Fifth clip is how they pass someone. This IS dirty. His hit on me was hard enough to push me into the wall, the subsequent lift and steering correction slows me enough for them to take a pass. This is dirty.

In the 6th clip they do a late block on me, it's not really a braking zone so I don't feel it was illegal, they also didn't weave around so I'm pretty much all good with this. However towards the end of the clip they do some massivly illegal blocking on 2 other players. Not on imo!

In the final clip, from a later race, they slam a rock all on their jack jones. I laugh. The other player laughing also caught some of ZumZumbao's dirty antics - visible in the previous clip.

So this fucker pumps me up the arse and takes my place. Not fucking having that so I get back along side and block the shit out of that motherfucker from turning.

I think this eedjit was trying to push me outside the checkpoint at the hairpin. It also possible they where taking their line for the corner but my nose PIT'd them. But if they where taking their line, it was a pretty fucking aggressive sweep given they knew I was right there.

So this fucker made a mistake all on their own. They where going too fast for the amount of grip they had. They then lifted and dived back to the line and barged me out the way. 

My response was dirtier than I like to think I do and absolutely a professional foul. I was heavy in that braking zone, he was in front and I had the wicked wheeze to lift the brakes a tiny tiny bit. This results in a small shove that puts them in the wall. Fuck you motherfucker.

I've raced with this dude many many times. They where always a country mile faster than me and clean. I had respect for this player.

Anyway, in the first clip I was concentrating on the driver ahead, trying to find a way past, setting up for one of my favourite overtaking zones. When there was contact with the dipshit it was accidental but it was on me coz I didn't know they where there. Anyway, on the next corner I leave enough room on my inside but that's not enough room for him, he hits me again. This one upsets the car which is on the balance and brake limit, I go slightly right and deep in the heavy braking zone because of that hit, I brake more and lock. As I'm gathering my car up it's obviosly blocking the pocket genius here which is no doubt why he called me a twat.

I then proceeded to get a lecture from this dude about how to race and that I shouldn't hold him up (entitled much?). The second clip here is them "racing".

This is a story of a dirty entitled hypocritical Horizon Superstar. My guess is this man-child is about 22 years old.

So I kept this clip because of the horn stuff. I still find that really funny. The cunt's a toxic, homophobic prick though. Best blocked!

Man these racers are murder! They have analog controls but use them in a digital manner. 

LOL on playback this seems like a storm in a teacup - pretty fucking obvious DING216 didn't mean that!

No idea if that was deliberate from SCVMBXG4509 but what I can say is a) Fuck sake man! and b) No apology was heard.

Just the spirit of horizon isn't it? Shall we send a fuck you?

Another in the rammer with a clean racing badge genre. This one I got a run on and they must have thought I'd pass so they brake checked me. What a fanny.

Zukunft3 here proving what a shitty sore loser they are. The first hit, I'm as far left as you can go. I'm not steering wildly - unlike fukko here - so THEY hit me. I countersteer and that sends me to the median line, they hit me again and again and again till they get enough purchase to put me in the bridge pylon.

So it's not entirely clear what I've got a stick up my arse about here. The cunt in question didn't hit me in this clip. So let me explain. There's a minority of Trial players that are differently abled and their disability is very VERY disruptive to other players. This one didn't hurt anyone but the clip shows they are afflicted with this issue. The issue is simply described as "doesn't have brakes". As a work around, these people use other players (TEAMMATES) to slow themselves down.

Everyone is in the trial to win it on a personal level and go onto reddit and tell folks how shit trial teammates are. This is the result. Nobody and I don't mean literally nobody, nobody plays the trial as a team player. It's a toxic hellscape Playground Games seem unwilling or unable to do anything about.

Now I suspect the "you" here is the dipshits in the clip, not you personally dear reader.

Now remember, these people are all on the same team. They are trying to beat the red ones. We are supposed to help each other to achieve that goal. Instead what you get is 6 people screaming "get out of my way I am trying to win this for all of us, single handedly without any assistance and if I fail it's your fault for being in my fucking way!" or words to that effect.

See when making this, what I've done here is assumed this was deliberate rather than just the actions of an noob who doesn't know how to race or drive! I need to chill the fuck out!

This is a roller coaster ride. The ending makes me wonder if any of it was accidental.

In messaging they apologised and said they "had slingshot lag" - no fucking idea what that is!

Man these players do my fucking head in! Blocked.

Must have had a bee up my arse about something... lets see. OK so at 6s there's a bit where he hit me after I'm off the fucking tarmac - I realise he was probably correcting from previous contact but I'm willing to bet he didn't lift once! Anyway. Get through that, he's defensive in the braking zone, all good, my car is a grip monster and he outbrakes himself. Cool, slip up the inside. Now remember when you didn't leave ME any room? Here's the payback. Held my line, giggled at the mini map (that's a lie. I didn't notice it at the time)

I have to say, in hindsight I don't feel clean.

So I kind of dispair with this sort of thing. I'm hoping it's obvious it's not me causing the contact. You can see I'm not weaving, my turning radius is consistent with a wheel user. So I effectivly drive around the outside of this player, them accidentally bumping me the entire time and in the VERY NEXT FUCKING CORNER he sits right on the racing line expecting me to evapourate! The final consequences of their choice is pretty damn predictable.

The funny bit is, they may have come out of that thinking I was the dirty boi

So this is the Dirty Bois/Racing School crossover we've all been waiting for said nobody ever.

This fucker has slammed the wall on their jack jones and is straight back on the racing line with the intent to block. Dirty cunt. 

I think perhaps AmirKabirity doesn't have a fucking clue how to race. I mean he's in a near meta and slow, should tell you all you need to know.
