Ramming

**Ramming** is a gameplay style in *Need for Speed: World* that revolves around hitting other racers in varying ways in order to win a race or purely for fun; one method is combining Nitrous and Juggernaut to catch up and push the target(s) aside. Rammers exploit the game's physics engine and synchronization in order to amplify the effect of normal ramming, often resulting in cars being launched into the air.

## Rules And Info

### Forbidden rams

#### In oncoming

**Oncoming rams** refers to ramming other racers head-on. This is usually achieved by spamming Nitrous to get ahead and then turning around and ramming. This is a bannable offence and a valid report with sufficient evidence can get the accused banned.

#### Completely coming to a stop

Rule 3 of the in-game rules dictates that rammers must always make positive progress towards finishing the races, i.e., they cannot stop completely at any point. This is a bannable offence and a valid report with sufficient evidence can get the accused banned.

#### Blocking the other racers

Blocking as in making a roadblock, leaving little to no space for other players to go through a certain area is not allowed. Rammers usually use the whole car to block shortcuts or narrow roads to prevent the others from finishing the race. This is a bannable offence and a valid report with sufficient evidence can get the accused banned.

### Allowed rams

#### Brake Checking

This refers to getting in front of the opponent and applying the brakes to slow them down. Brake checking is allowed.

### What to do about getting rammed

Ramming is a playstyle that was encouraged even by the original EA Black Box developers and one the devs of WUGG actively use. *Only* report rammers who have broken a rule. Unnecessary grudges about getting rammed and expressing that publicly in the Discord server can result in attracting other rammers. The Discord server is a place to hang out and chat with others who enjoy the game as well, but extreme saltiness will only make the server depressing and irritable; therefore please refrain from heated discussions unless there is a good reason to do so.

#### Tips for handling rams

1. **The Ghost powerup** disables collisions for a short time thus protecting its user from ramming attempts. This powerup helps greatly against approaching rammers.
2. **Spam Nitrous and get ahead of them** with good driving lines; it's worth spamming NOS and a few powerups if it means really avoiding rams.
3. **Ram back with Juggernaut**: Fight fire with fire. Do not be afraid to counterattack before they get to strike.
4. **Quit the race**: If any of the previous methods are unavailable (such as by lacking powerups), just quit the race and enter a different lobby. It's only one of many multiplayer races; up to 5 minutes of time wasted at maximum is a small patience cost.
