Because releasing a new game every 12 mths leaves too little time to develop any particular aspect of it to be as good as it can be 🤷🏽‍♂️

Pretty sure I read (somewhere on here) a confirmation of sorts that the custom car in TT has the same performance values as the Merc? Maybe I’m mistaken though 🤷🏽‍♂️

Couldn’t agree more... The lack of a “free practice” game mode - which features in every self-respecting racing title (be it game or sim) going back as far as the early 90’s at least - is just mind boggling.

All very good suggestions & I’d love to see it happen. That said, I’ve got a theory as to why the replay system in this franchise is as barebones today as it was in 2010 - flashbacks (whether they’re used or not). Have asked the question of the devs in the F1 chat section a few weeks back but didn’t get a single reply.... Make of that what you will, but in my mind the silence from “officialdom” on the matter when other more trivial things (like the coloured stripe on the merc’s halo) gets sent up the chain almost immediately suggests I may well be onto something because I sure as hell would be uncomfortable opening up a discussion about what I can’t or won’t be able to implement. In any case, 🤞🏽 an overhaul of the replay system is on somebody’s to-do list because let’s face it, the current one is pox & has been for the best part of the last decade 🤦🏽‍♂️

Do you play on PC?

lol

Cool, I did remember thinking it was a nice touch when I noticed it. Surely the “custom team” bit was an oversight & will get sorted in the next update

So I tried everything you suggested with the exception of GHub which was already installed & up to date. Same result though, the game always freezes without displaying any "warning: controller disconnected" message... On the plus side, The Ego dumper is accessible now after the crash so I don't have to reboot the PC Thanks for the help regardless

I may be mistaken, but this is already halfway done - pretty sure in the car select screen for TT, the team badge for the car is your MyTeam badge?

Thanks, I’ll give it a whirl 👍🏽

Sure, appreciate your help! mobo is an ASUS Prime B450M-K AM4 M-ATX; Monitor is a JVC LT-58N550A 58" LCD TV; Keyboard & Mouse is a Logitech MK470 "Slim Combo"; I couldn't find the 684536-20201015-154958.dmp /.zip you referenced - but have attached the only zip with today's date saved in C:\Users\gus\AppData\Local\Temp 684536-20201015-154255-0.zip

Definitely not getting that "Warning: controller disconnected" msg - just the game freezing & then the Ego dumper crash dialog pops up when I try ALT+TAB out of the game. Miraculously, this time around I was able to send the crash report (but attached again here to be sure, to be sure). Dxdiag also attached. DxDiag.txt Ego crash.txt

I get what you're saying... Could've sworn I'd seen DRS used on the straight between T2 & T3 on lap 3 in Melbourne before, but I guess my understanding of the rule is wrong - much like I was about that Shazaam movie. Racing @ Melbourne is what prompted my post.. Looking at the track map closely though: TIL that DRS detection points are numbered just like the zones are.... 🤦🏽‍♂️ Case closed 👍🏽

Wondering if this just happens to me, as I’ve not seen anyone else taking about it.... A detailed description of the issue. Please include any error codes here. DRS only activates from the 2nd DRS zone of the lap on lap 3. The same occur when DRS is allowed again 2 laps after a (full) safety car. Next lap, provided you’re still within 1s of the car ahead, it works as it it should (eg DRS is useable in the first DRS zone of the lap). Platform PC What version of the game you are using (Shown on the start screen in the bottom left corner of the screen) 1.10 Game-mode? Any single-player game mode, during a race We need to be able to make your problem happen internally so we can fix the issue. Can you make the problem happen again? Yes. How do you make the problem happen? Start lap 3 of a race within 1s of the car ahead & enter the first DRS zone of the lap. DRS no workie What troubleshooting have you attempted? Please always try to attempt to fix the issue Not possible. What peripherals are you are using (gamepad, wheel make & model etc) Logitech G29 wheel & shifter Any screenshots or video of the issue? If the video is long, please include a timestamp for when the issue appears. I’ll make a video & upload it in a little while.

Nothing? Nothing at all?

This one is for the devs - I read another thread where it was suggested using the flashback feature to avoid corner cutting penalties & it got me thinking... Is the mere presence of the flashback feature in the game (whether it’s enabled or not) the reason why replays are so short? And as a follow up to that - does the flashback feature also then limit the amount of useful functionality to the replay feature that can be implemented? For context, I ask because I am left absolutely by how VCR-esque the replays are & also by how little this particular function of the game has evolved over the years.

Ooooft. Savage, but fair

With the AI at 110%? If so, no point playing the game - ring up Toto & tell him you’re ready to take Valtteri’s seat for 2021!

Sames

Oh yeah, more of the heli-cam too! Or better yet, just add a heli cam to the cameras (or replace the chase cam with it) so I can watch it whenever I want during replays

Wholeheartedly agree, & I’d also add the ability to jump to any lap would be more than welcome - because fast forwarding all the way to the arse end of a 100% race distance just so I can see an incident/overtake that was conveniently (or perhaps not) deemed by the game to be unworthy of the highlights package is just plain dumb. And while we’re on the topic of replays, it’d be really great to have the ability to replay practice & qualifying sessions (if you wanna) after the fact, just like we can the race... For those times where I’ve channeled my inner Ayrton, delivering an absolutely stonkers lap in quali & the only reward i get from the game is a grossly underwhelming Jeff getting on the blower to give me his 2c + a cutscene of the car cruising back to the pits on an in lap I have a sneaking suspicion though that flashbacks are the reason the replay feature in these games never evolved past the functionality of a VCR from the late 90’s.... Have asked the question of the devs on the main forum, curious as to what they come back with on the topic, if anything!

I am when I have to be

All of that would be more than welcome of course, but I’d much prefer to see what’s already in the game (or has been before) fleshed out as far as it can possibly go. Throughout this franchise it just feels (to me) like the goal has only ever been to get something “good enough” with seemingly no real desire or ambition to make much of anything in the game(s) truly “great”.

My Bwoahh GP1 💁‍♂️

Pretty simple workaround really... Just don’t let ‘em past
