Will ever ever see player mechanical failures?

[Will ever ever see player mechanical failures?]

Making it an option satifies both sites I would say

[Increase the spots for the players in the unranked lobbies from 22 to 24]

Would be interesting concerning F2 2020 where there are 22 drivers, so you might need 2 extra slots for spectators🤔

[Podium Pass Season 3]

Season 2 ends tomorrow, no comment about Season 3 yet so hopefully it will be straight after this one, but I fear it might be next week.

[Halloween challenges]

The Halloween event on Mobile started today, and in the console game, nothing to see🙁

[(Multiplayer) - Players who left still in the lobby with AI]

Hi @BarryBL, sorry for the slight delay, didnt have much time the last two days.

I got a report code from a game session and lobby I did quite some races in, the issue happened again, it's always 1-3 players who stay, the rest all correctly disappear:

Report code: XJCH-HPKV-JDKX-PVHP

[Halloween challenges]

I just saw that F1 Mobile Racing (yes, the mobile game!) has a Halloween event which starts on Saturday where you can earn a Halloween livery.

In the F1 game, last year we had a DLC Halloween car, so I wondered if this year, similar to Mobile, we might get some Halloween challenges to earn some kind of Livery this weekend / next week?

I remember the survey where they asked that question, whether people would be interested in earning a Bundle through challenges. Well, for me the answer would be yes😛

[Driver Stats Updated]

I also had an email saying that Driver stats have been updated, haven't noticed any differences though.

Also playing on Xbox One

[(Multiplayer) - Players who left still in the lobby with AI]

Description of the issue: Sometimes, it happens that when players leave the lobby during a race, the next race their AI is still there, although they players is already out of the lobby. The Gamertags stay in the lobby (a bit greyed out) and block the cockpits for other real players.

Game version: 1.12

Platform: Xbox One

Replication: For most players, when they leave, they disappear, but every race there are like 1-2 players who are still shown.

Replication method: Race, have 5 players leave the lobby during the race and see if they are still shown in the lobby for the next race.

Game mode: Unranked 

It affects all players in the lobby, as their AIs are still racing the next races, event though the player is out.

Screenshots: Here we have 1 screenshot showing, how many people have left the lobby (during the race result screen at Brazil) and 2 screenshots showing how many of these greyed out players are still in the lobby.

 

[(Multiplayer) - Low FPS after retaking control of your car (+ can't look back)]

@BarryBL, just tested it, the FPS issue has been fixed, nice.

But the issue that you can't look back / or to the side is still there, no change to that. Are you also aware of that?

[Game Update | Developer Log | October 2020]

Hi @BarryBL, great insight, gives a good idea on what you are aware of and how far you are in the process of fixing those things.

You mention the HO78.6443 error code on Xbox. Do you also have the H0403 Weekly Event error code on the radar and is there an update on that fix process?

[[1.03-1.12] [Grand Prix] [Cockpit] On-Wheel DRS indicators missing]

From my experience, this seems to be specific to Hamilton and I believe Perez. When driving with Bottas, the DRS light were there, in green. 

After looking at reallife footage, I noticed that Hamilton has actually has no DRS lights on his steering wheel, Bottas has, so it might be realistic and by design😅

[Remapping overtake button on XBone]

I can't really help you about your issue, have you made sure you saved and activated the right control scheme with the change?

Me personally, I also didn't like L1 as the Overtake button, so I changed the following:

Overtake: A button

Clutch: "View button" on the left, next to the Xbox button.

I'm quite comfortable with that, I also got ERS on Hold rather than Press.

[[SOCIAL] [MULTIPLAYER] Switching to spectating another car in multiplayer]

@BarryBL I hate to tag you and annoy you in a way😆 but I think this is an important issue and I hope to have found a 100% replication method, would be great if the team could test it and see if it works for them too. 

Sorry to tag you but looks like you didnt see it the first time

[Weekly Event]

I think there might be a good reason there are slower + assists players in front of you this week.

It's most likely down to the weather, as it's wet at the start and dry at the end, but that switch to slicks is different in every race, and some people got lucky and had some more slick running and therefore quicker pace in the race.

My feeling is that it has been mostly Tuesdays. We have league race scheduled for Tuesdays and we've had to cancel a race for a patch that came in the evening, and since then there have been 3 patches I think released during Tuesdays, though earlier than the first time. This on PS4.

Might be down to the fact they release to PC first, which they do on Mondays. Usually takes a day longer for consoles, so Tuesday for PS4 / XB1

[next update]

I expect the patch to release on Monday. So far this game cycle, almost all patches were released on Monday, so I think it will happen again next week.

[[SOCIAL] [MULTIPLAYER] Switching to spectating another car in multiplayer]

@BarryBL @jennyannem I just found a replication method which works 100% of the time😀

Description of the issue: After leaving a lobby during the race, and then rejoining that same lobby, I retook control of my car. Then, I tried to change the Camera view of my car, but instead I switched to another car and spectated that.

Platform: Xbox One

Game version: 1.10.1

Game mode: Unranked

Connection: Wired

Players: 17

Host: I wasn't the host of the lobby

Issue happened only to myself, who rejoined the race / lobby. It didnt affect the car I got to spectate.

Replication: 3/3, I got a 100% method too:

-Start a Online race

-leave the lobby during the race

-Rejoin and take over your car again

-change the camera view

-you will spectate another car instead of driving yours.

Report code: ERAP-MJDP-SHTH-PTBD

Video below showing how I rejoin, take control of my car, then I change my camera and switch to the Ferrari, where I continue to switch camera views.

 

 

[F1 2020 Esports Event and Weekly Event Fuel Assist Forced On]

The Fuel bug has indeed been fixed, you can now adjust the fuel after attempt 1.

The Overtake button was stuck on for the first two times, I feared it was a new issue, but luckily, after restarting the game it worked fine again.

Both issues fixed👍

Seems to also revert wheel/control settings to default

That wasn't the case in my example, so seems to be a little different every time somebody rejoins.

But I had the issue I couldn't look around me when driving and was stuck looking forward😅

[(Multiplayer) - Results bugged after rejoining a race]

1 showing how I finished the race (Robiii2003) on my screen (I was the guy who rejoined)

2 showing how I apparently didnt finish the race on the screen of somebody else

[F1 2020 Esports Event and Weekly Event Fuel Assist Forced On]

This was fixed with the Server maintenance an hour ago, wasn't it?

[(Multiplayer) - Results bugged after rejoining a race]

Description of the issue: After leaving or disconnecting from a race, and then rejoining, the results are bugged for all others players, as they show that the driver who rejoined hasnt finished the race.

On the screen of the player who rejoined, the result is normal.

Game version: 1.10.1

Game mode: Multiplayer - Unranked

Connection: Wired

Who was affected: The result was wrong for every player except the one who rejoined. So, everybody had to wait for the player who rejoined.

Replication: 2/2

Replication method: -start a Multiplayer race

-leave the lobby

-rejoin and take over your car

-finish the race (your result will be fine)

-the other players will see you as not finished, and the lobby will then be stuck at 0:01 until you leave.

Report code (from the person who rejoined):

KXBH-DRVM-KTSX-DEGM

I'm having some issues with the screenshots, will add them ASAP

[(Multiplayer) - Low FPS after retaking control of your car (+ can't look back)]

Description of the issue: When leaving a session or disconnecting, and you then rejoin the session and retake control of your own car, the FPS are really low and very stuttery. Also, you can't look behind you, or to the side as well.

Game version: 1.10.1

Game mode: Multiplayer - Unranked

Replication: 3/3

Replication method: -Start an online race

-leave the lobby

-rejoin

-take over control of your car again for the race

REPORT CODE:

[HELP | How to assign reserve drivers in custom League?]

I believe you can only assign a Reserve if you have the AI Subs enabled, so a reserve can take the place of a driver not partcitipating.

With AI subs disabled, you can't assign any Reserves, which is quite a shame and not really useful.

[WEEKLY EVENT - Error code H0403 - All platforms]

Any updates on this one? @BarryBL

Other than that, I got some more report codes of it happening:

Race 1: GBMG-CMVK-MTDE-RVGH
