xPaulStuart 0 Posted July 13, 2014 Hi all, There are many flaws in this game which need to be fixed, but somehow they seem to be concentrating more on little graphics bugs on PC. There are many things I want, and I'm sure many other people do as paying customers. My list of problems which need resolved are these; Detailed Cockpits. (confirmed, I think) The in game RaceNet Challenge leaderboards. Repair bills and prize money to be more balanced. Pit lanes to be opened for certain events such as endurance and other longer races. Another problem I've encountered is when I join a RaceNet club I will do one race with the tag next to my name and car livery but then after that they both disappear. Feel free to add your own problems Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TUSMBOX 3 Posted July 13, 2014 If you don't own a car in whatever class you're racing in, you won't have the option to put a livery on it, meaning you can't race for the club in that race. And I don't think they're going to add pit stops. The tire wear isn't extreme enough to warrant pit stops. And car damage has been around since Grid 1, and I don't think anyone complained about it then. What does need to be fixed is the race liveries for other club members, and save corruption, which the latter is being taken care of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TUSMBOX 3 Posted July 13, 2014 I would suggest putting them on in your garage. They normally default you to your club car at the pre race screen. Oh, thanks for joining, by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

garyjpaterson 0 Posted July 13, 2014 Detailed interiors? Confirmed? Doubt it, they dont have time to be modelling brand new interiors for all the vehicles. They'll be working on the sequel by now, which chances are will have great interiors, due to the criticism of autosport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alexPSCE 0 Posted July 13, 2014 not confirmed, in fact it WONT happen, i base that off the comments made by CM before the game was released. the foggy, low detail cockpits are to simulate the REAL effect that driving a race car has, which is that you focus on the track and cars around you, so they made the cockpits such that they look well out of focus, accurate, as when you are racing, you dont pay attention to your cockpit, you pay attention to the track around you. detailed cockpits are for forza- a game about cars. grid is a game about racing, and the fact of the matter is CM are trying to make this game as realistic as possible, from tire wear, to damage, to physics, to yes, out of focus cockpits Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FOSTBITTEN 0 Posted July 13, 2014 I don't know if you know this or not but, console patches/updates take a little longer to get to us. Because CM has to submit the new info to Microsoft and Sony for a Quality Assurance process. This can take anywhere from one week to a month. Then the new info gets a scheduled release date. Then hopefully that eta is close to what these 2 companies lay out for us. Sorry for the many abbreviations.i would like to add a few things to the list. First off I would like to see the numbers on the cars either have a more defined white or your choice of colored outline. Right now the #'s are hard to read against a black background. Or even an option to put a square behind the #'s to make the digits stand out easier.While on the subject of numbers. Why do the other guy's in my club have to have the same number on they're car? Shouldn't they have an option to use a number of they're choice too? To resolve this I have not used any numbers.If CM does not want to go through making the cockpit area more defined. Then could they at least make the steering wheel and the driver's hands more defined. At least on my screen I cannot really see them that well or sometimes I cannot see them at all.And of course the corrupt save file problem. But that has been already confirmed that CM is working on this problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feel free to add your own problems I think you'll find that they will fix the easy bugs + the significant ones first. The most significant of which is the corrupt save game issue.

At least on my screen I cannot really see them that well or sometimes I cannot see them at all. as i stated earlier, this is to simulate real track conditions. i have been on track in a variety of vehicles, and rarely do i notice any of the gauges or dials on the dash, and yes, there have been vehicles that, due to seating position, im to focused on the track and vehicles around me to notice the wheel that is in my hands, or the shifter to my right (and on one occasion, left). its all a part of attempt to bring grid back to the realistic racing it was in the first grid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites mikevoltz1 0 Posted July 14, 2014 I would like a Rearview Mirror....
