anyways,i'm currently having a flawless season in gp 2009 where i've won first 5 races.all started from pole.apart from a help from an experienced friend,it all comes down to u guys.thanks again.because of u im enjoying such a great season.plus,it's my debut season in batracer!but unfortunately,i dont have such luck in gp2.im currently 12th in the standings and will likely to drop further back.i would say it was a mistake joining a gp2 game.i would rather have joined another gp 2009 for private slot.oh well,i hope u guys can help me with that. :(

We can help you if you post the sliders and tell us what driver characteristic you've chosen :)

For starters, I am no fan of high aggro (anything in excess of 70) although others use it all the time. Here's how I'd tweak it

Pace
87
84

Aggro
67
67

Use of tyres
50
50

Mechanical sympathy
70 (to begin with)

Pit stop
80
90

Race start
60

wow..70 for mechanical sympathy?isn't it too high?i put it on 65 once and i ended up out of the race.i forgot what was the problem but it had something to do with the mechanical thingy.how could it be any better at 70?just curious.but since u're an experienced player.i'll give it a shot.regarding the aggro,i put it quite high cz im sick of getting bottled up behind slower cars.with higher aggro u'll likely pass those cars way easier although it is clear that the risk of collision is also higher.it's worth it.no risk no gain.lol.that's just my opinion if u ask me.im new so do guide me.btw,i appreciate ur help.will try it right away and i'll let u know the result.gracias :biggrin:

In series with no inherent 'reliability', 60-70 isn't always a bad thing. I would experiment with it and find the setting that is right for you.

Also, a lower aggression can actually be a good thing! Why? I find most people set theirs HIGH, which means that they are far more aggressive and more prone to accidents! I set mine lower.. and reap the benefits when they crash into another player with a higher aggression or into the wall!

A higher pace (80-90) can also help, but if you crash or make a lot of mistakes, reduce it by 2 and find your own 'sweet spot'.

There is absolutely no exact settings, just personal experience and your own experimentation.

So experiment, and have fun!

I took me about 500 races to begin to get good.. and beyond 2000 races I am in the top 100 racers and have a ton of records held.

So just experiment and don't be afraid to try something different!

Jochen said everything I would have. About the mech sympathy though...like Jochen and I said, start at 70, If you have no incidents, keep it there and if you do have one drop it by 2 points. I'm running mine (on an experimental basis) at 82 in one season with no issues so far. I even won a public gp2 game with mech in excess of 90, but I had mechanical sympathy there as my dc.

u know what?that is actually a good piece of advice!thanks man.but one thing i dont quite agree,collision doesnt occur often enough!im saying this through my little experience.lol.well,it does happen sometimes but it hardly happens in every single race which makes it harder for players who are using low aggro.so,love it or hate it we need to be a little aggressive to get the outcome,dont we?im not saying we have to be ridicolously aggressive cz that's absolutely ridicolous.but a little of that would help.am i wrong? :hmmm:

It's not just about collisions Farid. It also produces a fair few driver errors if you don't pick the right dc's. But some people prefer high aggro, some don't, to each his own I guess. In the end, it boils down to risk vs reward. I don't think there's enough reward for the risk of higher aggro. I'd rather risk higher sliders elsewhere rather than on aggro. That's my opinion.

i'm with karan here. I generally run a conservative aggro, unless of course I have an aggro driver characteristic.
