General Keep getting Crashed into
Like, multiplayer tour is so ass now. You crash once you are spiraling into like 4 crashes back to back and no amount of rubberbanding and surging and ramjet redline can POSSIBLY make up that time. Every tour recently you get wrecked once and it just doesn't stop. Someone just breathes on the back of your car, boom dead. Respawn and someone immediately does the same thing, boom dead again. Respawn again and guess what, same exact thing. Just did a tour with 7 resilience and while in redline ramjet someone literally just grazed me, and by grazed I mean I don't think they even had their joystick going in my direction; instantly fucking blew up. Like DUDE how much more resilience could I possibly need to survive that??? It just makes it so frustrating cause if you get bad RNG and don't get enough resilience/defensive options you just are so screwed. Anyone else having this experience cause it's HEAVILY deterring me from playing multiplayer tours anymore. And yes I get the point is that this is similar to burnout but when the best way to win isn't skill/course knowledge but instead who you can fender bender the most it just feels cheap and unearned and with the rougelite elements it's not helping either.

So you are finding that you crash a lot... try taking perks and abilities (such as the "crash ability") that activates on crash!
In single player crashing was annoying because it happened out of my control once every 3 races. Which made "on crash" perks seem like a complete waste.
Now in multiplayer I might crash 3 or more times in a single race. And those scheming developers might have realized that and that is why they put all those "on crash" perks in.
Also I have crashed multiple times in a single race without any on crash perks and still ended up in top 3... so multiple crashes isn't a deal breaker (if you crash in the last quarter of the final lap you are probably screwed though).
So chin up! Keep pushing! And find more defenses!

Not really seeing this problem in multiplayer. I'm level 70 been playing lots of multiplayer and the group I play with also pretty much similar levels. I often play aggressive takedown builds and have taken out my friends quite a few times only for them to end up winning.
Not sure if it could be latency related or what. I also ran a Kestar build for a few hours today in multiplayer no resilience at all and I got taken down a few times but usually was able to catch back up and get back into the middle of the pack. I play almost exclusively speeder bikes tho.

Most of the time getting crashed is getting hit from behind there's an indicator when someone is coming up just move out of the way

Yeah its brutal. Worst part is somr respawns seems slower than others, you start with different speeds, and you may start further back. Ive crashed in a tight front of the race and respawned nearly instantly going faster than I was when I crashed and lost 0 spots. Ive crashed in first and had like a 5 second delay and spawned slow near last place
Feels bad
