  • My roadcutter has proved highly erratic so what more craziness will go on as we race through more Wreckfest events (also can anyone stop ninetales?)

  • @deylanphelps7481
    @deylanphelps7481 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I've found that stiffening the suspension on the Roadcutter helps keep the car from being so bouncy. Because the stock suspension is so soft, it helps to stiffen it in a way it won't bounce as much on landings from jumps.

    • @agentcrm
      @agentcrm ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That was my thought too.
      When I used to play wreckfest, I always found stiff suspension was faster across the board.

  • @kip258
    @kip258 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The Road Cutter is glitched. If you use medium or soft suspension, the front wheels will steer outward on their own when the suspension becomes loaded. Use stiff suspension or a different car.

  • @TDurden527

  • @FoxiFyer
    @FoxiFyer ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Yeah some cars are better at handling jumps than others. The small, short wheelbase cars handle them no problem, long wheelbase muscle cars, cars naturally closer to the ground, they tend to struggle a bit.

    • @markhenderson6389
      @markhenderson6389 ปีที่แล้ว

      "...tend to struggle a bit" is putting it mildly! At times it looked like the Roadcutter was bouncing sideways on landing!

    _"Bumpy's car provides an unwanted obstacle on a classic circuit._
    _"There's plenty of cross-traffic mayhem on a figure of 8 race._
    _"And Alex.... picks up a tire."_
    That figure of 8 circuit race was the best of the lot. You always know there is going to be chaos on the crossover, and the FR crew never disappoint in this! Some good racing from Alex, particularly in that last race with the damage he took and the steer-happy car he had. 😂

  • @bearrett50kal17
    @bearrett50kal17 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Alex you mentioned last video for this Wreckfest tournament and at the beginning of this video that the Roadcutter is bad at jumps and I can tell you as a Wreckfest veteran that that's absolutely right, it kinda just sucks over jumps but it gets much worse in normal and softer suspension setting. The best suspension settings for the Roadcutter on any track are 4-5 , counting settings left to right, 4 is in between normal and stiff, 5 is full stiff. For the Roadcutter I use 4 for tracks with jumps and 5 for flat tracks. You should try to hit jumps dead straight in the Roadcutter when possible, weird things happen if you're steering or hit jumps crooked in the Roadcutter since that car particularly hates landing sideways. It's probably my least favorite car for tracks with sketchy/big jumps, it's not so bad over smooth and low jumps.

  • @deadlaser3
    @deadlaser3 ปีที่แล้ว

    As mentioned in the previous video my go to car is the Starbeast. Handles jumps well and turning is good. Doesn't have the top end speed of cars in similar class but it's a solid car and worth looking at in a future vid :)

  • @Eggs_boi1775
    @Eggs_boi1775 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love the road cutter as a car but the car cannot afford to get air time at all. The suspension I think is what killed it and made it roll. Only real way to save it is low centre of mass and big suspension does not help. U just have to slam it down. Also am I able to join ur races on wreckfest? They look a lot of fun.

    • @Eggs_boi1775
      @Eggs_boi1775 ปีที่แล้ว

      Edit. That only works on big jumps

    • @Eggs_boi1775
      @Eggs_boi1775 ปีที่แล้ว

      It basically needs all wheels on the ground at all times. That's why it was a pain on the loop In deathloop and why hellrides walls were difficult.

  • @danielbarry7435
    @danielbarry7435 ปีที่แล้ว +2

  • @williamhepworth6360
    @williamhepworth6360 ปีที่แล้ว

    I imagine I’d get better if I played more, but I always found it awkward to preserve momentum going into corners. I’d either not slow down enough and barrel into the scenery, or I’d play it safe with the braking and lose all speed as I turned the corner. Taking a tight line would cause me to almost stop on the apex, and then a wider line would leave me too vulnerable for an AI behind me to cut back on the inside, seemingly not having the problems I had.
