UP100

Post launch means after launch, so most likely 🙂

I'd be down for it at least as I missed last week's race 🙂

Hmm. I'm going to have a go and see if I can replicate that kind of AI crashing into you in practice, though I have to use a harder difficulty I guess, which can change the behaviour E: Tested it. Seems to just be an issue in that specific corner. The AI isn't really trying to be aggressive, it's just better at braking than the driver with a slower car and harder tires. When it realises that, it tries to avoid the incident until it figures out that it can't get away from the collision Basically the most generic mistake I do when racing against others 😛

It basically depends on the quality of connection between the two players, so... it depends Racing with a 250ms delay causes a lot of trouble if you have a tiny touch with another player. Playing with other Europeans, it's more rare.

😮 On the other hand, I'm doing nothing 😁

I'm going to be careful, but even if the game is mostly ready, there's still a lot of stuff to do. Many of the F1 game betas are done with old F1 cars. F1 2016B was done with 2015 cars, and 2017B was done with fake cars. I think stating the reason may be a bit too far on the gray zone of legal things 😅 There is a lot of non-development stuff that goes into making a racing game with real cars.

I don't really see why there would be any immediate changes for CM Birmingham because of the acquisition. EA bought into Codemasters because of what they're doing currently, which is why they're not currently planning to mess with the DiRT Rally series either. Other than that, the team is everchanging as people move between positions and jobs. 🙂 Any major decisions about future titles are rarely done just before an announcement. We didn't have any news about F1 2020 this time last year either!

Well he was off last week including this week's Monday due to holidays and annual leave. Other than that, he's still definitely around 😛 https://forums.codemasters.com/profile/137721-barrybl/

I think it's rather likely that there is some setting applied to many players, or an action performed by many, which is somehow causing this issue. Some report it happening every time while others report it happening 'sometimes' @kisuke_CROW says it happens everytime in F2 for example. I think that'd indicate that someone in that league is "causing" it It's just rather hard to figure out what could be causing it 😅

Thanks @tbtstt. A bot was actually able to sneak into an actually used forum for once. They usually just bother me on General Discussion and Off-Topic 😛

I'd say it could be a some kind of check done to ensure everything is in sync as the first laps can be a bit hard to keep track of. Moving it to happen earlier wouldn't really be a fix in a way. It'd just do the thing it was designed for earlier, while the bugs can still appear before or after it. It's not a bad suggestion, but professionals usually think that it's often better to figure out what is causing the issue, instead of just trying to negate the issue with more code. We have some good news that the issue has been reopened internally. Hopefully they'll be able to figure out the underlying issues 🙂

Now just the part in which we have to try and figure out what could be causing it 😅 I'd guess that the game just does some additional checks on lap three in order to confirm that everything is on sync. I should probably have a go at asking this from someone after the holidays. We should try to figure out what causes the desync in the leaderboards to happen I feel like that there could be multiple bugs here which all get resolved by the lap three checks, so that may cause additional issues

All of the races include the formation lap. I'll invite you to check through them as well if you, for some reason, still don't believe me that it doesn't happen for everyone 100% of the time. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn-YS2si2lwW1UTbOzvw37g E: I did find an another bug, which I don't think is the same as this one? Positions and laps are counted correctly, but the the gaps of me and drivers below are shown as +1 lap. I'd guess this to have been caused by my jump start

But it doesn't happen 100% of the time? Even BarryB confirmed that earlier by going through five 表彰台 league streams and not spotting it Here's his quote even

Hmm. I've asked some other users about this and they report it happening once in a while, such as every 5-10 races. I'm fairly sure that it has something to do with either an user* or an action at the moment *This doesn't mean that the user has intentionally done anything. It includes user, their hardware, software and things such as data pulled from a server
