@slayton I'm in the same situation. Very angry and frustrated. Lost 600 wheels points in 1 day. 80% of duels are grid duels with bot, so no way to win. The quick races are suicidal because even if you can compete some crazy bot kills you behind a turn. It's a game but seeing a developer team so numb make me think how they could be even able to get the project from Codemaster. Suddenly we are back to ****** Up2. Even worse maybe because not I'm not able to compete in quick race duels on some circuits where I was able to win 80/90% of the times. Keeping alone the fact that grid races with bots are now a lose lose (3 seconds gap after 3 turns, bots that overtake you ad double speed...) Maybe they want to sink the game and chose the "send away the players" strategy. We work in mobile development, on project not big as this one, but believe me, those issues are not bugs. Some of them like the % of grid races you get now (70/80% of the duels), the performances of opponents in grid duel, can be fixed in a quick way if they would. They deliberately changed the game parameters for some obscure reason. Crazy but true.

Google is a wonderful thing...

If someone from Codemasters is reading the forums, then shouldn't action be taken to address the shortcomings before the game is released? If the product is bad, it affects the company. You're lucky that you're the officially licensed game because no one would have bought from you. I am now at 9725 after staying at 9999 for a long time before the update was released. My win rate was already dismal at around 58%, but after the update, my win rate is now like 50%. That's after 2200 races! Obviously the law of large numbers don't apply here. Grid start issues have been talked to the death. After removing the game from my iPhone XS Max and reinstalling it, grid starts have gone back to the pre-update period of rocketing opponents. Sideways torpedos are always there and I am really afraid of approaching a chicane because some bot or opponent would push me into the grass while they leap 5 seconds away. It has frustrated me to no end that my race was taken away while I am at P4, or P2 even, but some **** bot put me into a wall. I am not so lucky as the threadstarter above as I have never seen 327km/h on my device. It is at best 323km/h on DRS on the Azerbaijan straight. Like he observed, speed has nothing to do with power and that's weird. After some upgrade, the max speed had gone down to 318km/h. Is this F1 or GP2? Cars are now more prone to understeer, sprint races and qualifyings are harder to compete when I'm like 0.25s behind at the start that rapidly descends to 2.50 seconds at the first turn. This game is ****!

Student council has a lot of information out there in Google, but that information widely varies between schools and, frankly, countries. Our school (A Finnish upper secondary school) has a student council that consists of around 12 members. Every upper secondary school has to have one by law, and the school administrators have to listen to their opinions. The student council at our school mostly tries to improve the school and its atmosphere (for example by buying stuff that the students would enjoy) or holding events for the other students. For example an event called 'Penkkarit' happened yesterday and the student council, in total, spent 2700 euros to renting trucks and other stuff for the event.

How can you be unaware of such issues? Don't you have one spare staff member to log on as a public user and play the game? How is it you release a version as a 'gold master' and then act surprised that it's buggy? I am baffled that your quality control seems to be non-existent. It has been months now that every player of this game has repeatedly drawn attention to the totally inadequate performance of their cars in a Grid Start, but nothing is done.... it's ignored to the point where it seems this is now a fixture of the game. From version 1, nothing you have done or said gives me any confidence you either have a plan to make this game enjoyable again or it is, as I fear, a deliberate agenda to move the goalposts from a racing to a card collecting game, giving the illusion that more blueprints equal faster cars. And newcomers to the game will pay because you can't level up by racing. Meanwhile those of us who recall V1 will have abandoned you, leaving only reviews warning others not to buy into this sham.

Yep remember Big A as well and also Wooly51

Trust me, I drive a Hyundai, not missing out on much. Unless you like windows that go down, but not up, and others that go up but not down.

Looks like a lot of folks have already complained about all the same **** I came here to vent on. Nearly every single grid start, I’m already WAY behind my opponent by the first turn. On some tracks with long straights to start, like France, I’m literally 3 or 4 seconds back by the first turn, even with a perfect start. It’s ridiculous. By that time, I’ve Alonso been passed by all of the ai cars and they are guaranteed to have some wreck right in the middle of the track and screw you over even harder.

Hi team! So, there's been a bit of confusion over which Impreza's going to be in the Season One pack. After double and triple checking, I can confirm that it is the 2008 Subaru Impreza coming in Week 9. We were right in the first place, the correction was wrong - it's the one piloted by Petter Solberg in the top flight international rally championship 11 years ago. However, because of the boo-boo, I'm allowed to tell you this: there was only confusion because we'll be bringing the 2001 Impreza to the game in another Season. 😉 Sorry again! The good news is, we know to double and triple check before publishing/amending lists now...

Pit Stop at after the 1min Mark. Another great fun league race. FYI, we had a full race. APS League Race 20 Runners and 2 Commentators. 3 runners had the "pit stop bug" and the rest glitched out. I left at 9 runners left. LOL JOKE of a game.

It's funny to see tech and time developing - skip to 12:20 in that New Zealand video, talking about both the gearbox and the handbrake, all now taken for granted.

Hutch also has a license to develop an F1 game, and they have announced an F1 manager coming to App Store in the future.

Its because their business model does not make sense to continue to support the games while at the end of its seasonal release. Its that simple. Think about it. They release a new game every single year. If you are a CEO of a gaming company, and you make decisions based on a few things, one of them is cost. Do you put resources on a sunsetting game, when in a few months, another release of the same game is coming?? No, you allocate resources to the next game. Makes sense, right? As you all know, games are so so so complex, and as a result, this "yearly release model" doesn't work anymore. Its half baked, and when Codemasters has sole rights to F1 License as the "official game," it's quite unfair to diminish competition due to this legal agreement. Lets be honest, the game will continue to be half baked, unless they steer away from this yearly model. Software as a Service or release it like Forza or something. In other words, we need to stop asking for patches. The next "patch" is F1 2019. We need to stop asking for additional stuff, because do you really think they can add any other needed or cool functionality? No, because they haven't perfected the basic foundation of a working game. Do you think they care? No. Its a business with tight resources with no willingness to change to support a HUGE OPPORTUNITY to increase revenue (eSports Sponsorships, Subscriptions and etc...). Its unfortunate, because its like seeing one of our friends doing something so so so stupid, you try to help and they will not listen. I love F1. It comes to a close second to my family. I have been crazy about the sport since I was 4. So, I am stuck to deal with this BS and feel compelled to write this because I am passionate about this game, the sport and I know Codemasters has it in them.... They need to change and they have an opportunity to do so. Sad.

@ChrisGrovesMCM while I appreciate your point of view, that players (customers) have the right to have a fair and enjoyable experience, I'm rather disappointed by some of the things you say. Let me say that your QA process is far from acceptable. Resurfacing bugs mean that the developers team doesn't know the code they are working on, or they write patches without testing the collateral effects of the modifications. I'm a software engineer and even if I know that perfect software is not easy to achieve, I also know that some bugs are unacceptable. The grid bug with monster bots resurfaced yesterday is disappointing, because it is clear that it affects a lot of players and it could have been detected with better internal tests before the release. Why you don't get a slice of players and use them as beta tester to avoid to release patches like the latest one? I don't think it is good for Codemaster to be associated to such low quality software. Sorry for the maybe unpolite words but this are my 2 cents to the discussion

I would love to drive this car in DR 2.0

I used to win most if not all qualifying races. Most sprint races and the rare grid start race. After hitting 9999, I’m winning like 20% of qualifying and sprints. Grid races still on occasions when bots take each other out. Opponents just zoom past or ahead in a blink of an eye. Lost 300 points today but getting too frustrated to continue to try and get back to 9999

I have never been more jealous of a kid in my entire life.

EDIT: my phone's messed that quote up

I can put a video up.... oh wait.

Driving in DR with triples is such a cool feeling. The hairpins are awesome, and racing along on Greece being able to see the drop makes it surprisingly more intense.
