xhavefunx Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Well if you ask for an opinion you should expect judgements aswel. Opinions doesn't necessarily have to be positive. Because i have nothing positive to state about OP's overtake maneuver. Not a single bad word or attacking sentence has been said, so i don't see what's wrong here?

FirestarteR93 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 So that's why you don't need to argue with others just because they have different opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhavefunx Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 You're the one argueing with me? I was completely on-topic now i'm off-topic because of a moderator? How ironic. Read my posts again and tell me if i was off-topic. Nowhere in the forum rules i read that i'm not allowed to argue with someone. So i'll continue to stand for my opinion and those of other hardcore players like ETR_Owl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirestarteR93 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Well....

Folriden Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 ^ But... but.. I had the TAB window open. Is it bad, to use TAB only in situations when a player does not have time to look in a mirror? Besides, mirrors distort distance in MP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Is it bad, to use TAB only in situations when a player does not have time to look in a mirror? Besides, mirrors distort distance in MP. It's prefectly fine. TAB shows you exactly in numbers how far you are from the person you're overtaking as well as show if there is oncoming traffic. It's an accurate overtaking tool.

Inthernet Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 At the end of the day, it's always risky overtaking on single lane roads even with TAB. Some find the risk acceptable, others don't as seen in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiper Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 IMO He should've not insult you slow down to let you safely overtake him slow down even more when he saw the oncoming truck now, send him a link to the rules and quote the one in the spoiler and give me a cookie <3: While Driving in ETS2MP, users are required to follow the European Traffic laws btw you can find his ID @ MyDocs>ETS2MP>log>log_spawning file I don't see anything wrong with that overtaking, either. If there is anything wrong with it, then perhaps it'd be just the fact that you didn't look at the mirror. Though that isn't always necessary and I can easily tell you did have a decent distance from him given your speed and his. So yeah, nothing really wrong there. He must be one of those kids who cannot bear being overtaken by anyone. It's like an insult to their pride. Report him for insulting. I'm shocked by the community's standards in terms of overtaking. If you think there was nothing wrong with this overtake maneuver, you are either not in the possession of a driver's license or you just don't take this simulator serious enough. I must say, in this situation,with bad english and without a driving license, but with a bit of experience, you really did not see another player who was being overtaken slowed down, that is why overtaker entered faster to 50 to 100m range than on 0 to 50 meter, lastly in situation like that, YOU who are overtaking, you pull yourself back, not that one who is being overtaken, so insulting in that case is acceptable, but not within a range of rules in MP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirestarteR93 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 ^Ehm, not really - The guy who is being overtaken must ensure as safe as possible return to the lane for the overtaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folriden Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 ^ You can easily edit mirror distance view. Mine is set to 800. I tried and saw no changes in a game. Please, explain me a difference, if it's not difficult for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folriden Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 We didn't understand each other) Other trucks appear in my mirrors when they are 210 meters from me, everything is ok with this. I wonder how it will help me when overtaking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirestarteR93 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 ^ IMO (due to the distance rendering) the mirrors are only useful for parking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folriden Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 I'm just trying to explain that the mirror distorts the distance, and you can't use them only, without using a TAB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhavefunx Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Well.. there's no problem using TAB if you wanna use TAB. I'm not saying you're a bad driver or something. You just need some practice on overtaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
