Please do remind me of the topic.

Is the topic "what is fair in Ranked online?" Tell me how I am off topic.  There is no way in F1 23 to compare apples and apples.  If there is show me where?

Does anybody seriously think that some drivers in E-Sports should be able to use assists and others not?  That is for anyone thinking I should 'get real'.

Why do you keep comparing competitive cheating with external software to the accessibility tools that are built into the game?

Not once have I done that.  Read the transcript as I have told you already.

The thread is what is fair in Ranked Multi-player.

Do you think some competitors in E-Sports should have access to Assists while others don't? Answer the question please, I ask it with respect.

No driver in E-Sports uses any assists. As it’s against the rules!! 

The Driver that allegedly cheated did not use any in game assists.  They used a 3rd party grip hack which he got from a 3rd party that was downloaded to their PC.

@AllanWeigandThat is literally what you have done multiple times though? The reason nobody drives with assists in esports, is that it is slower, you would be at a competitive disadvantage.

would some people who use assists be slower if they didn't use them? I.E. a partially blind person.

Would you allow assisted drivers to compete in E-Sports?  How can I compare apples with apples in F1 23.  It is not possible is it?  How is it fair in Ranked Multi-player? Pretty simple question.

@AllanWeigandAbsolutely. Which partially blind e-sport driver are you referring to?

Ok so now you want everyone who uses  3D drining line to provide a doctors certificate to be allowed to use 3D drining line.

Because only partially blind people use 3D driving line.

The reason I can't name one is because assists are not ALLOWED in E-Sports

What point are you even trying to make right now?

So you have gone from comparing cheating with external tools competitively to using accessibility features of the game, to questioning why there's different rules in casual gameplay and the highest levels of competitive play.

Man, come on.

So are you now advocating for people to use assists in e-sports? I am really confused now.

I prefer to discuss points of difference rather than abuse someone for not being able to hear myself, BTW tacho's were invented for people who can't listen to the motor rev and know exactly if they are red lining.

answer just 1 question where in this game can I compare apples and apples?  for the..... 10th time?

Vast majority of people who buy this game use controller and assists and only play for a few hours a week until they get bored.   They like you pay their money and are entitled to play every mode within the game.  Including ranked.  Just because the title says ranked does not mean it’s a competitive mode that only the non assisted players can play.  It’s still a social multiplayer mode where any and all assists are enabled for everyone to use or not use.   And whether you win every race or come dead last it doesn’t matter.  As it’s not a serious competitive mode where you will be crowned champion or win any kind of  prize.  If that’s what you’re looking join a league.

Just to pick out a couple of meanings.  Ranked is not competitive, it's social, not a serious competitive mode.  Participation trophies will be awarded to everyone.  If you don't like it, go away and join a league where you can compete with 22 people BUT DEFINATELY not the rest of the world, cause you may be a little upset if you don't get a trophy. RANKED IS A WASTE OF TIME.  Show me somewhere where I can compare apple with apples, Weekly Event from F1 22 that compensates for assists used is gone.  Apples are now oranges!  Thank you for making my point.  I still love the game, but I am restricted to TT and Grand Prix against AI, I might as well play golf against my handicap.  If you want to make this thread about anything other than "RANKED IS A WASTE OF TIME", sure, go ahead, if you want to make it about the benifits of inclusion, you won't get an argument from me.  But, RANKED IS A WASTE OF TIME. 3. relative position or standing, is a waste of time because apples will be oranges in F1 23.
