Why everyone is calling users cheaters who happens to be this so called "respawning" immediately?! It might have to do something about the way mp sync mechanism is built, there is 30 frames per second, not the actual fps count of your rendered "animation", fps which is synced to GL servers, you might have noted that the minimal time difference possible is 0.033 seconds and any time difference can be divided by 33 without any decimals in a result.

So let's say that I'm against you in a race, I'm in the Georgia, right now but you're in say Germany so theoretically we could have super fast (low ping) internet which could allow for perfectly synced race, you seeing exactly where I am as I do, but what if somebody playing from india with poor network connection?!

I'm not professional game developer but in order to compensate lag and high ping I would run separate session on each of the playing devices, if somebody with poor network connection cannot provide server about that particular session progress then what I would do? Disconnect the player from the server? Oh boy, because of such strict system GL would lose probably 99.9 of asphalt players, even the best internet provider cannot guarantee 100% package delivery. For seamless and smooth gameplay is to alter driver with AI. Asphalt's AI isn't as sophisticated driver as a skilled driver so you can very easily outrun him or her (actually an AI controlled racer) but as I said, decentralized system's each member at some point have to be synced and when they do you might see something as strange as a racer jumping from an air, switching paths, wrecked car respawning in front of you - guess why? AI cannot match a skilled driver so it wrecks the car, but the driver does not.

So shut the fk up, I have played thousands of MP races and I haven't encountered a cheater, if something surprises me, unusually short lap time, I try to repeat the lap time, guess what?! I was able to beat it with the same car even at some cases with lower rank.With the exception of SLK SE. I do not own that car.
