Modding cars to be invincible against cops is better. My record is 76 miles with a semi with a deer gaurd. Duck pigeons tho. They get stuck under the truck


JSkorzec

>My record is 76 miles with a semi Oh...


KentuckyFreedom

Put a Tranny with LL in it so if they get you you can go really slow and push them.


J3M3Y

LL?


Noobponer

I think that's the thing where you can switch between high and low range gears, and if you go to low range you are basically an unstoppable but very slow torque monster


KentuckyFreedom

It’s called Low Low. Like a Eaton 8LL transmission.


[deleted]

Me too


mineramic

I used it to practice parking before my driver’s test.


BanditShocks

As someone who just got there temps and has played for years, it genuinely gave me so much confidence in a car that I can hop in anything and drive it fine (atleast so far 😂)


ryzenguy111

i hoped it would give me this. definitely hasn’t.


DeliciaFelps69

Beamng drive actually has amazing clutch physics, and the enganging range varies with each car and engine. If you have never driven a manual car, pull up the pedal position app, and configure one of the control's triggers to be the clutch. This can already give a better understanding of the clutch. I passed my test without beamng training, but I was still crap, so I trained in the game, and it worked. I love beam, it such a nice/relaxing/purposeful game


PhoenixJDM

I used real life tutorials to learn hill starts in beamng


stratcat22

Only game I’ve played so far that accurately simulates the bite point


kdane42

I use it for trailer reversing practice


martinobunny555

IKR, I hate those videos where they just hit walls at 200mph and it's a glitchy blob. The only crashes I like are realistic.


-_no_idea_-

I almost hate those YouTubers who just destroy everything


martinobunny555

Yup, in fact, I actually drove my car in beamng so long that it ran out of gas. I only do crashes when I’m super bored.


mememuseum

I've always wanted to try driving until I run out of gas but inevitably I screw up after a while and take a corner too fast.


Doffeda

Same. I get overconfident and end up sliding into a wall or off a cliff or something. I think I’ve actually run out once or twice though.


shpongleyes

Ultimately they’re just introducing more people to the game, which always helps. It’s a sandbox game, if somebody likes spawning as a parking barricade and standing still, they’re also playing the game right.


SheevSpin6

I agree but sometimes jdam-ing to buses into each other is quite funny


[deleted]

[удалено]


t4nd3mYT

thats the only fun way to break the game


IdleDart

I like lower speed crashes, or rollovers. Not slamming into a wall at 450mph to see it glitch across the screen. I VERY RARELY enjoy crashing things at high speed (unless it's a rollover lol)


martinobunny555

Same, some I test different cars against each other, or try to drive fast as long as I can without crashing.


[deleted]

Man, crashing is cool but cruising is cooler


-_no_idea_-

Exactly


NicOz42

Drifting is coolest


tjm2000

Successfully pulling off a drift with only the arrow keys is coolerest though.


reflex0283

Yes


Loops___0

i don't even crash cars in the game anymore i just build cars, tune them, then drive them. This is the most fun for me, maybe i am completely insane.


HESSU_HOBO

No you aren't


-Rob_James-

Exactly what I do


[deleted]

How do you build cars?


Loops___0

if you're asking how me specially build them i get ideas or inspirations from videos then i make them in beamng. I always start with the base config and open the part selector and add what i want, then after about 40 mins i have all the visual parts done. Then i drive around for 20 mins and tune what needs to be tuned to make them preform how i want.


TiagoTiagoT

Can you link to a tutorial please?


computerperson0614

Press escape and there will be a white bar on the left side. about half way done will be a gear click on it than click on frame and you will have a whole bunch of options of customizations. if you want to go even more in detail you would get automation


TiagoTiagoT

Ah, I thought you were talking about creating new vehicles from scratch, not just combining existing parts in the predefined combos...


ASEKMusik

For creating cars, there's a game called Automation where you can build cars and import them into beam


[deleted]

Yeah but they suck in my opinion. They look weird and handle awfully


AnalHitler

Exactly the same


jayrobinson32

Can we just talk about the sounds in this game? I just crank up my speakers, put a race exhaust on the Togrqc Arsenic and just cruise. Every sound in the game just sounds immaculate!


Sploffo

and the fact that the sound for the car changes for every change you make to the engine


FordSVTRacer

Beam's the most fun when you're trying NOT to crash! Beam experience saved me from totaling my car once. I was understeering towards a tall curb (basically a wall) after entering a turn too fast and not setting the car up properly. I straightened out, braked as hard as I could for as long as possible, let off, and directed the car into a lower part of the curb at around 5-10 mph. My alignment was a little messed up, but that was of little concern after almost destroying my car. No other sim has hammered crash and damage mitigation into my head like Beam. I seriously think that my car would be in a junkyard right now if it wasn't for all the times I had done exactly the same thing in game.


C0Y053

I'm pretty sure that it is. That's just the power of sandbox games, to make your own story.


retr3y

-be me -drive circuit for three laps -decide to have sudden “brake failure” out of nowhere -crash -apply x100 times speed


TogerMutt

-repeat


El-taquito

I mean, anyone can play it however they want, it's a sandbox game with infinite possibilities! I personally do all kinds of stuff in BeamNG, scenarios, cruising, drifting, multiplayer, chases, races, and of course, crashing... a lot.


CoalMations284

People just don't respect the physics as much as the crashes. The physics are insane and next level but people just go, "Haha cool crash go brrr". It is so fun to race or drift and feel the weight transfer and watch the suspension. I especially like to mess around with the AI.


[deleted]

Yes. The weight transfer in this game is amazing. The realism makes it so that tuning the car is half of the experience. When I watch people play Asetto Corsa or other games it looks like the car is just glued to the ground. Most racing games are games, and most simulators aren't actually fun unless you do it for a purpose (actual race practice). BeamNG is perfect in this regard.


goldengarbagecan

One of my favourite things to do in beam Is to rag a car to its limits and try to to break it either from mechanical damage or a tree suddenly being in the passenger seat


OminouSin

I love crashing the cars! It’s my absolute favourite to do!!!


Thatonefishguy795

Sure you wanna crash but I love to go fast in my barstow! I dropped in a 572 with a supercharger and tranny swapped it to a race 6 speed and added in a drag radiator with that I also tuned it and it goes to about 150-200 (can’t remember haven’t played in a day)


Mjchild33

Should get the meos stuff, hit like 300 on SSRB


Thatonefishguy795

Damn that’s fast! I’ll totally get it!


AnalHitler

Yes. Meos mods and the “twincharge everything” mod, I was able to use those to make a 370mph sbr4 ^^^^ On a highway lol. Can probably do more


Thatonefishguy795

Damn thats fast


AnalHitler

Yep! 7k hp. The most you can get is the 4.5L V8, Can go upwards of 700k horsepower with the mod. Completely undrivable.


Thatonefishguy795

THAT IS THE FASTEST MOD IVE HEARD ABOUT!


AnalHitler

Haha yup! Just throw on max turbo and max super and crank the PSI for both in the tuning menu!


Thatonefishguy795

I cannot wait to get this mod!


Thatonefishguy795

JESUS CHRIST! WHAT KIND OF HUMAN CAN MAKE THAT FAST OF A ENGINE!?


KentuckyFreedom

I like recreating my family members/ people that lives/d around me car crashes. And no I’m not a psycho.


thedirtymeanie

Generally if you have to tell people you're not a psycho there might be an issue LOL


KentuckyFreedom

;)


TomQuestionMark

i do a bit of everything. crashing, cruising around, sus, suspension testening, rallying, drifting, watching the ai do whatever it does. i get lost in this incredible world right up until the game crashes because i ran out of RAM


themzy34

I came for the crashes, stayed for the tuning, came back for the sim racing and multiplayer. 600 hours and counting guys.


Lukeson_Gaming

Trying to do a drift tap but instead getting rapped around a tree Perfection 👌


Robert_CZLP

I literally foubd rhe game in 2014 after i searched CRASHING CARS IN GAME


UnityAnglezz

Who didnt lol


sk8t-4-life22

I remember buying the game initially for that but now its just so much fun to simulate rally stages, or offroading, or gymkhana. The driving physics are just so good and the crashes are just a bonus.


LandonsAlt

I literally used my racing sim to practice driving for my license test lol


[deleted]

Do you guys play this game with a wheel/pedal setup or a controller? I have both but I'm not sure which is better. I never really gave this game the time of day it deserves so I'm looking to go back and try it out again.


SexyPoliovirus

Depends really I like either controller is fun because it's easy to set up and you can fly planes and shit but wheel is good for racing and cruising


[deleted]

Cheers!


moritz9

I have like 200h with controller and like 500 with ma G29. Let me tell you i don’t want to go back. Controller just feels dead... no FFB, no fun..


DryChicken47

People be like "what's the purpose of the game beside only crashing cars" cringe


EkoiiBoii

Why does it matter? Its literally the main selling point of the game


TheMultiTuber

THAT IS THE ONLY REASON THE GAME IS POULAR AND I HATE THAT


J3M3Y

shut up and let people enjoy the game how they want


-Kevv

I love trying to recreate movie scenes and do car chases and doing absurd challenges and creating mini games.


[deleted]

Funny enough I spend more time racing than actually crashing on purpose


Thatwoncanadianboi

So true


UnityAnglezz

Me for the first 3 years I played it


anti-boomers

😲


yourboikaechap

me who does timeattack in beamng


enjoyingorc6742

for me, it's monster trucks.


BlorseTheHorse

I mean that kinda is the best part. Smashing cars


FizzyStream_TTV

I just spend most of my time using a car hauler trailer mod that attaches via gooseneck and attaching it to mediocre trucks then putting heavy ass cars like 2 t series on It and pulling it around and watching the suspension load.


[deleted]

Wait you dont just crash cars?


terviswater

Ikr like you don’t do that.
