Team Meeting 13/01/2016 - Patches, Testing and More!

[hobbsy777 0]

I am on PC and read the different racing and sim racing discussions daily over at the RD forums and the one game that is conspicuous by its almost absence, is F1 2015. I have never seen the "F1 20 xx The Game" forum so quiet. This message has to tell you something CM. I have not used this game since last November and I suspect I am not alone.

Please put the official TV broadcasting timing in F1 2016!!!

@jennyannem Are you aware how big the online problems for PS4 have become since the previous patch? We just started a new league season, but it's become pretty much impossible to finish any online session: during practice we all got the blue-screen error, so we had to restart the game and make a new lobby. We were able to finish qualifying and started the race, but we all got  ''kicked from session'' after only 10 laps. We restarted the race in another new lobby, but after 51 laps, we all got kicked out of the session again.. It's like this nearly every time, and it's completely random.. Could you please at least tell us if these problems are being worked on?

I'll get back to you on that!

@jennyannem Any news you can share about this yet?

i think people forgot that its take TIME to check patches then needs to go into the microsoft garage for checks and when Microsoft gives the green flag codemasters can say a time frame, just a reminder Xbox take thier own time to check before giving either a black and orange flag or a green flag

[unfer37 4]

Are you being serious?

Hey guys,

I have been reading those hateful comments since the release of F12015... my opinion, yes the game is, let's be honest, not be best one that Codemasters have ever released. However, I do not think that any of you has the know how on how to develop a brand new game from scratch, codies have developed F1 2015 on brand new engine, which means completely new physics, graphics, track updates, car updates... times 3. If you consider that it was just 8-9 months between the release of F1 2014 and 2015, they have done a good job in developing the game as it is. Give them a break, they have done a great job with Dirt and I think F1 2016 will continue with that and deliver a great game.

I know it takes time to make sure everything is perfect in the patch and then submit it to Microsoft but it's been a month since the patch for the PS4 was released and Xbox One users are still waiting.. Why is it that the PS4 patches are released quicker than the Xbox One I would have thought that they would both be released roughly around the same time

Apparently "Proactive Corner Cut Prevention System" (lol) was on for your race :D But for real, it might be a problem with incorrect track limits at that corner (or something), you're not the first one to report this and it's the same corner.
I just tested that corner as much as I can on PC TT and didn't have the moment of flying off no matter how I tried to drive there...

That crash at 7:40 is VERY similar to someone's post yesterday. See the link below, same corner and everything. The game must think there is a wall there or something :/

Just thought I'd give you all an update: the Xbox One patch is now in at Microsoft for testing. The PC and PS4 patches are also being worked on, with an aim to get them both out as soon as the Xbox One patch has been released.

Will patch notes be released soon? Thanks for the update btw

[jennyannem 41]

Patch notes will be released soon, yeah... as soon as they're confirmed they will be put up for your perusal :)!

[aaron685 1]

And how long does it usually take for Microsoft to check and release the patch? @jennyannem

Think it was just under a week last time, but I think it can be more, depends how busy they are I guess

[geminiSunrise 6]

Really? You need to wait for f1 2016, it's been clarified about a million times that it's not in this game

[unfer37 4]

"You need to wait for f1 2016" 

Why do you assume it will be in the 2016 game?

Could you please fix the issue of re-assigning the pedals differently?
On the PS4 I can easily put the brake on the clutch pedal of the T3PA pedals which I use with my T300 + Ferrari F1 Add-On, by creating a custom controls scheme.
Why for PC this doesn't work? Please fix it, as when you set to custom and assign the brake pedal to the clutch, the games goes crazy once you go out on track. The acc + brake pedals are automatically pressed 100% even if I don't touch them.

And also don't think I just want to find an issue or anything, but this is really needed as some guys who actually race in leagues at the highest level, do use the softer clutch for better braking.

Introducing!!!
Limp Bizkit - Hot Dog (Codemasters version)

Ladies and gentlemen!
Introducing the Chocolate Starfish!
and the Hotdog Flavored Water
Bring it on!
Get the soon up!
Yeah!
Check, one, two

Listen up, listen up!
Here we go
It's a sooned up world
A sooned up place
Everybody's judged by their sooned up face
Sooned up dreams
Sooned up life
A sooned up kid
With a sooned up knife
Sooned up moms
And sooned up dads
It's a sooned up a cop
With a sooned up badge
Sooned up job
With sooned up pay
And a sooned up boss
Is a sooned up pain
Sooned up press
And sooned up lies
Well, Lethal's in the back
With the fact of the fires

Hey, it's on
Everybody knows it's on
Hey, it's on
Everybody knows it's on

Ain't it a shame that you can't say "Soon"
Soon's just a word
And it's all sooned up
Like a sooned up punk
With a sooned up mouth
A nine inch nail
I'll get knocked the soon out
Sooned up aids
From sooned up *ex
Fake a*s titties
On a sooned up chest
We're all sooned up
So whatcha wanna do?
We sooned up me
And sooned up you

You wanna soon me like an animal
You'd like to burn me on the inside
You like to think that I'm a perfect drug
Just know that nothing you do
Will bring you closer to me

Ain't life a bi*ch?
A sooned up bi*ch
A sooned up sore with a sooned up stitch
A sooned up head
Is a sooned up shame
Swinging on my nuts
Is a sooned up game
Jealousy filling up a sooned up mind
It's real sooned up
Like a sooned up crime
If I say "Soon", two more times
That's forty six "Soons" in this sooned up rhyme

It's on
Everybody knows it's on
Hey, it's on
Everybody knows it's on

You wanna soon me like an animal
You'd like to burn me on the inside
You like to think that I'm a perfect drug
Just know that nothing you do
Will bring you closer to me

Hooo Haaa Haaaw!
Listen up baby
You.. can't.. bring.. me.. (bring me).. down
I.. don't.. think.. so
I don't want some
You.. better.. check.. your.. (check it).. self
Before.. you.. wreck.. your.. self
Kiss.. my.. star.. fish
My.. choco.. late.. Starfish.. punk
Kiss.. my.. star.. fish
My.. choco.. late.. Starfish.. punk

You wanna soon me like an animal
You'd like to burn me on the inside
You like to think that I'm a perfect drug
Just know that nothing you do
Will bring you closer to me

Why can't MS QA test the actual game as thoroughly as they do the patches? Presumably because it'd never be released if they did... This is a recurring theme year-on-year with these games, with the next step coming in late February when CM quietly announce that the patch was re-submitted, another bug found, and now they're moving on to 2016 and there will be no patch. 

There is a patch, and it is coming.

 you know if you have fixed the problem of AI cars that remain without gasoline in qualifying?
