@tbtstt, do you know what he is referring to?
I think @tbtstt needs a bot setting up that whenever somebody says 22B he auto-posts "Well actually, the SUBARU 22B was the road car, you're referring to.... [wall of text]"

Oh, I forgot to mention this on Friday:
Season 4 Stage 1 liveries are now available on Xbox. I was able to use the Polo R5 today 🙂

@Kaylos29 mentioned this, hope it helps:
22 hours ago, Kaylos29 said:If you are not aware, the latest patch updated the FFB for the wheel. It doesn't appear the baseline was adjusted, but two more options were added that really threw me off until I figured out that they had been added.
Wheel Friction - Appears to add weight to the wheel. I had to turn this off entirely add it made my wheel not only heavier, but the feel became very grainy, like it was clicking. This may be because I have the low end Thrustmaster TMX that is a hybrid belt and gear system. The higher end belt systems might not experience the grainy clicking. It may be useful, but I found it heavily overwhelmed the Self Aligning torque.
Tyre Friction - Description says it adds resistance to changing the tire angle. What I found is that it did not affect force to turn in, but did make it smoother. With all other settings at 0 and Tyre friction at 150, I could barely tell it was doing anything, but comparing it to all settings at 0, I realized the wheel was much more free wheeling with all settings at 0. At normal settings, the smoother inputs became clearer. I definitely find this useful, though it can slow down counter-steering. 150 was too high, and at 100 seems ok, but maybe still a bit high.
Definitely glad they gave us more FFB options. It would have been nice to get some warning before jumping in and wondering why my wheel felt really off and was clicking like mad. Thought there was something wrong with my wheel.
Another unannounced update that may be subjective, is it appears they updated the car physics for the Super Modified class, or at least the AWD and 4WD cars. They understeer a lot less and are easier to get to turn in. You can now drive the AWD cars normal without having to slide or drift them, and the 4WD cars are easier to turn in. This may be related to the new car class that has two 4WD (not AWD) cars. I was annoyed to see the 2 of the new cars as 4WD thinking they would handle like the old Super Modified Lancer and Skyline. They didn't, only needing the occasional slight slide to turn-in. It was until I played the Super Modifieds that I realized this adjustment was to the AWD and 4WD system, and not just those two cars.

I totally get it.
Things like this are best communicated via email since they're officially tracked then 👍🏻

Friendly reminder to everyone here: play nice.
- People are allowed to like this game.
- People are allowed to not like this game.
- People are allowed to share their opinions no matter which side of the fence they sit on.
- People are not allowed to accuse others of being paid shills.
If you want to object to somebody’s opinion, do it though debating what they have said, not passive-aggressive attacks on one’s character. There is no place for that kind of nonsense here.-

This doesn’t seem to be a system-wide thing otherwise we’d be getting reports from everyone, so there must be something specific to your connection that’s causing this to happen.Have you documented the issue and contacted custservice@codemasters.com whenever this has occurred?

Custom is possible though you’ll have to drop another track. 12 is the limit and I believe it’s such a limit for a reason.
Lydden isn’t going to be in WRX mode because it wasn’t part of the 2018 season, and when the 2019 season update is added it won’t be in there either as Silverstone was the UK round.

Cars like the Polo are what I really like about motorsport.
Yeah it’s fun to romanticise about the privateers and the underdogs, but what interests me are the supreme efforts of the engineers, drivers and rulebook skimmers to build machines at the limit of technology and human ability.
When I watch WEC I don’t care about LMP2 or GTE-AM all that much, but seeing Porsche, Toyota and Audi slug it out in LMP1-H while skimming through traffic? That’s my jam.

9 minutes ago, Pfei said:What does the comfort rating do?
7 minutes ago, somethingthing said:Its the rating that tells how "used" to vr its recommended to be in the specific country. The icon is green, orange and red i believe. All we got this time around was a small UI change.
It basically says “susceptible to motion sickness? Argentina will kill you unless you soften the springs” 😉
But yeah, it’s a rating system for how queasy some stages might make you.
https://support.oculus.com/comfort/
Comfortable experiences are appropriate for most people, although this rating doesn't mean that an experience is going to be comfortable for everyone. These experiences generally avoid camera movement, player motion or disorientating content and effects.
Moderate experiences are appropriate for many but certainly not everyone. These experiences might incorporate some camera movement, player motion or occasionally disorientating content and effects.
Intense experiences aren't appropriate for most people, especially those who are new to VR. These experiences incorporate significant camera movement, player motion or disorientating content and effects.
Unrated experiences may contain intense content, which may not be right for most people, especially those who are new to VR. If you experience motion sickness or other VR effects from an unrated experience, you should select another unrated experience, or try an experience in the Oculus Store that's rated for your comfort level.
