    Yes, as I said in my bug report, I have already checked for updates (literally everything : GPU, controller drivers, everything). Personally, recording a video wouldn't be possible and since you mentioned that tests are all fine and cant be replicated, should I go for a reinstall ? Is that the only possible solution ? Because I don't see many people having this issue.

    Go for a re-install.

    Will have a play around in other modes and get back to you with more info when I can. At the moment I'm doing 25% feature race and 5 lap sprint races

    Cool, keep me posted. Only a minor one, but something I can replicate in my small race-time at the moment.


  3. Would be illogical as, in the story, you are already a driver in your own team. If you failed in F2 and struggled for example, would MyTeam not become available. Career mode it makes total sense though.

    Remember, you're the boss. So you are getting a seat, and is assumed you're allowed to drive in F1 for the mode to work.

  4. Can you replicate. Remember that the DRS failure, like in real-life, can last until the end of the race where DRS is simply not possible. I'm leaning towards 'by design' here without any replication.

    It could be a case that the team can't fix the problem remotely on occasion.

    Done a bit more testing myself, and it appears to be the Flashback that causes the issue.

    Went through some practicing and qualification without using any flashbacks, and the wear on all parts appears to be completely normal, and expected. (14 laps - 3% wear, which puts me at about 350 total laps expected, which is roughly 5-6 races). I'll be doing the race later, and will make all attempts not to use a flashback during it, to see if this is the underlying root of the issue or not.

    If anyone else could, please do some testing with and without flashback being used, and see if that makes a difference for you.

    For those also experiencing heavy wear on gearbox and other parts, please report if you are using flashbacks during the race or not.

    Hi @XioGShep

    As you can probably imagine, im being dragged everywhere right now, but I'd like to test this out myself. Give me a little time to survive the next few days and I'll get onto this as its quite interesting. Does it happen on Auto as well?

    the item shop and podium pass has become available now on Xbox, however i haven't received any pitcoins. i preordered from the Xbox playstore, am i still eligible for the 15000 pitcoins, and they'll be added when everything is sorted behind the scenes? also how do you earn pitcoins in game?

    Will become available soon.

    that's not it, i don't want to know details in any way. I would just like to know if as a consumer I can go to microsoft support to request that they pay attention to codemaster in order to solve the problem. As I mentioned in another topic, xbox always presents problems in the launches and ends up lagging behind the other platforms.

    Understand @BarryBL, it is frustrating to see that we bought the deluxe version and the same ones from the other platform have 2 updates ahead of the same game.

    Sorry, misunderstood, on me. Love the enthusiasm though. But we are working on fixes and updates with Microsoft to get them out as soon as possible.

    Thanks for clarifying, a bit disappointed as the multiplayer car lacks 'depth' and sounds flat in its engine sounds, it sounds like its taken from an earlier game it does not sound up to the standard of the other engines, that was one of the reasons everybody avoided it online in the last game because of how it sounded poor, everybody just stuck to lobbies with official cars  

    Fair comment. Just the official FOM car has to be agreed onto by all stakeholders and is a vital part of our game development. We also have to go to testing to capture the engine sounds, which happens after the FOM car is done. Without it, we wouldn't get MyTeam, Liveries, BETA would be very hard etc.

    @BarryBL Somewhat confused. Can't see the issue OP has posted as no video or photo but surely for qualifying, Hotlap mode should be configured to use all your 'D' bar ERS available across the entire lap so that you run out as you cross the line. That is the most efficient use of it, no? Surely it shouldn't run out before the line otherwise its Hotpartofalap mode.

     

    I would understand if they started the lap with minimal ERS battery that depleted before all the 'D' bar available could be used, but if there is plenty of battery, then surely this shouldn't happen. Suggests someone has mapped the mode inefficiently!

    Sill potential of a de-rate at the end. Agreed, a video @FlyingDutch020 would help.

    Hello @BarryBL

    What does microsoft claim to be unable to update on xbox? because just as I charge codemaster for resolution, we can charge microsoft too!

    Don't understand your question I'm afraid. If you are asking for details of submission between Microsoft and CM, its not possible for me (nor would I want) to disclose that information.
