Reached peak earlier today

Ended up 7th at the end of qualy, back to back div 1s (4th total) and my best qualy to date!

Ubisoft decided to randomly set this to ‘friends only’ for every UK player

If you’re from the uk and find it says the ‘chat disabled’ message, go to Ubisoft account management and change this to ‘everyone’, then restart game. For some reason this changed back to ‘friends only’ today

Loaded into COTD myself and found i couldn’t talk to anyone

(If you don’t know, uk players are required to verify age to chat to people on trackmania)

Only one campaign (non cut) world record remained unbeaten during ewc

This is South Korea. Linkmax drove a 1:12.0, the best time during the tournament was a 1:12.2

To my knowledge, every other map without a major cut got beaten. Germany has multiple cuts so wasn’t beaten

This both shows how insane players were driving in rounds in a high pressure environment, and also how cooked linkmax’s run on SK is

Enough is enough

The community is not happy

We can only take complete incompetence for so long

Months of awful cotds with today’s being picked with a terrible review rating, and the map itself being arguably the worst cotd ever made (it’s troll, but not remotely in a fun way)

Weekly shorts being lucky to have one map every month the community enjoys

Extremely little community communication, which is a sticking point. Ideally there should be a way to give feedback and for an EXTREMELY community-involved game to have better communication with the devs. Hell, games like balatro with a one person dev team see better interaction

Picking maps purely on vibes with the review scores seemingly ignored

Many mappers and top level hunters I’ve spoken to in the community agree that there needs to be improvement

The current distaste for nadeo could be fixed by having better communication, a more-obvious path to getting maps selected, and just in general more openness. Trackmania is great, because of the community. Utilise this.

Verification won’t work because I have facial hair, I do not have facial hair in my driving license

Seriously are you fucking stupid? Do you want me to shave my face? I request a manual verification OR a full refund

Club reputation is terribly unbalanced in lower leagues

It makes no real logical sense. I go up from the 6th and 5th tier as champions, have a bunch of money to spend on wages and players will state they won’t join me ‘under any circumstances’ but will gladly join a team who finished 18th in the league I got promoted to in the previous year for less money than I would’ve given them

There’s also been several cases where a league 2 team loans me a player, they play really well for me and then don’t want to sign after when I get promoted. Like surely irl if they had a championship winning season where they start every game, and the club is now in the league their parent club is in, they’d want to join the club where they’re actually getting to start every week?

Reputation simply doesn’t increase at a fast enough rate. I’ve seen stories of people going from league 1 to prem and they can’t sign anyone prem quality, it’s just really unrealistic.

The amount of text errors in this game is absurd

Been playing fm26 for a week or so, I’m Chester city in the 6th tier and the article portrays Liverpool as the underdogs

Not just this though, multiple instances of my keeper apparently denying himself when he saves a penalty

For 2 years of work, this is basic stuff

Promoting a pharma company in weekly shorts known for price gouging insulin might be one of the shittiest things nadeo has ever done.

Don’t be fooled, this weekly shorts is a thinly veiled advert for Sanofi using diabetes awareness as a smokescreen, when ironically enough companies like sanofi make life a living hell for many people with diabetes, especially those who have to pay for
Their own insulin

I will link an article in the comments where these two screenshots are from, but this is appalling

finished the game, any reason to not use raki forever?

Raki just seems insanely strong. Cat for example does pretty much nothing the entire run until the death defiance, and even then the low amount of hp you get means it’s only really useful if you’re literally about to beat a guardian

Raki’s crit chance is pretty insane. Having a passive crit chance is so strong compared to the other familairs’ effects

I don’t know what’s ‘meta’ and have only played to fear 16, so I guess I’m asking what benefits do the other familiars have that might compete with raki
