Pack Dynamics 4 - Phase 3 [January 2023]

Strong racing. A couple observations:

It looked like you were having to work way too hard to hang on during fast downhill sections.

You got the red flash when you were at the front of the group with no one ahead of you which threw you from the front back into the pack. Seems inappropriate.

You forgot to use your powerup.

I’m going to try to do that race tomorrow and see how it feels since apparently PD4 still has multiple sets of physics depending on what you’re doing.

I don’t know how anyone can see past the rubberbanding. Makes my eyes bleed

I believe that will be fixed in the 1.34 release.

That also reminds me of something, a personal advice to all.
Using the camera 3 (in person view) can be greate helper for visual queues on how the new system works, in terms of speed increase or slowdown relative to riders in front of you :wink:

You believe the rubberbanding (not the keep everyone together type) will be fixed in 1.34??? That would be amazing.

:thinking:

It’s true. Applies to non PD4 too

Yeah at the end everyone was pushing because of the finish and because of that you had to work harder…but Aquaduc decent you never get rest cause at this route i would call all False FLAT. :man_shrugging:

I noticed this once but i think i was breaked because 2 riders passed me in a turn and i got the draft and because of the turn again lost it and eased watts and the system recognizated i don’t want to be on the front and it braked me maybe too much :smiley:

Nope not at all…they are lottery but i wanted to show PDv4 without outside help.

Sorry mate i just changed today to 61FPS to test…looks like 58FPS limit works the best for me.

Hey, I haven’t followed this whole thread closely but I did skim over the 650 posts.
Is there a place that summarizes who PD4 is different.
Is it still possible to supertuck?

Yeah 58 seems to work best here too

tl;dr

Supertuck only when you are not receiving draft. Braking if you are not working hard but moving forward in a group, to stop you moving through other riders.

If only it were possible to use it without having to witness the occasional colonoscopy and head decomposing down to eyeballs…

That’s great if you are one of the few 1.34 gets released to initially, those not on PC in the other platforms and not on the early group have to wait how long?

I don’t think rubber banding is a problem for non-PC users…

Never happens on my iPad

Hey all - Pack Dynamics 4 is enabled in all worlds now.

I’m’ going to lock this thread dating back to January and will ask we move discussion to the thread we started fresh today.
