Various issues / bugs / please fix

Recommended Posts

1) Gear indicator vanished at start of race in Canada, had to switch off and re-load.
2) Middle of tyre wear test in Baku and game crashed just as going through tight section in sector 2.
3) Leading race in Canada and safety car came out. Caught up to safety car and it was parked between turns two and three. Braked to a standstill to avoid hitting it, was then passed by Rosberg and when safety car got going I had to stay behind him.
4) Sector times for AI are absurd on some circuits occasionally. Baku I did a 32 sec flat second sector 0.5 secs quicker than any other AI apart from my team mate (Vettel) who did a 31.5 sec sector which was 1 sec faster than any other AI car???? Not the only circuit I have seen this happen either.
5) Safety car seems to come out every single race, especially when I am leading often causing me to lose the race. I am all for the safety car in the game but every race? Really?
6) AI seem to have no issues with a green track in FP1, I can't get within a second of them on any circuit no matter what fuel / tyre yet come FP3 and qualifying I am on the same pace as them.
7) AI blue flag logic is still not good enough. Instead of moving over on the straights they slow down before the corner, take lines meaning they have to turn aggressively to stay on the track and you end up hitting them????
8) Every single race I get a worn engine warning and I lose drastic amounts of speed on the straights compared to the AI
9) Just going to flying lap in Baku I have had a warning for pitlane speeding come up as the lights go out???
10) I don't bother with Time trail anymore as some of the laps on the leader boards are just blatant cheats, take alook at TRL Martin's video on youtube. TRL Martin is not the cheat btw / he shows someone doing it!
I Know I am not the fastest racer in the world but I would like to see where I stack up against true racer who do it properly. The nonsense I have seen on TRL Matin's video of what was supposedly the fastest time around Singapore is farcical and I totally agree with his frustration. He set's a perfectly good lap time that should be right up there with the best in the world only to see some idiot cutting wildly across every corner on the circuit and beating his time! What is the point????

On the whole I am enjoying an excellent game but these things are very frustrating and ruining the experience
I am on PS4 / Legend / 100% race

Hi Porterje1, thank you for reporting those issues.

1) We know about, there are a few threads about this issue. We're working on getting a fix out.
2) Did you see that crash every time or just once?
3) We're aware of an issue with the Safety Car picking up the leader, again we're working on this.
4) I don't know anyone has reported this, can you send me some screenshots of this if it happens again please.
5) You can always turn the Safety Car off remember.
6) We'll have a look in to that. Are you playing the whole session in real time or are you skipping / accelerating time at all?
7) If you can send me videos of this that would be appreciated. Blue flag behaviour is something that's very hard to get right unfortunately.
8) That's something that's been reported elsewhere, we're discussing this internally at the moment.
9) Was this a one off or can you repeat it? If so which team are you using? Can you also get it to happen in Quick Race?
10) Can you link me the video please?

Thanks for your reply to these issues. It is great that this years game seems to be getting the type of support that has been missing in previous versions.
In reply to your questions.
2) The crash happened once. When the error message came up on the system I used the link to report.
4) If & when the sector times come up again I will screenshot it and send it over to you.
6) The issue experienced with the AI being to fast in FP1 / FP2 seems is certainly there. On some circuits worse than others. Melbourne the best time I could get in FP1 was a mid to high 1.28, Vettel my team mate is in the 1.27s on the same tyres, Bahrain, same tyres I do 1.35 Vettel does 1.33 same tyres. Shanghai I do 1.38-39 he does 1.37 same tyres and so on and every cicuit. I know my set-up may not be perfect but I know it is good enough because by the time it gets to qualy I can match or beat him most of the time or be a couple of tenths down. ToxicWarriorF1 reported the same issue in his thread and many other people seem to be experiencing the same thing although it does appear that most of these users are on PS4 platform. I play nearly all of the sessions in real time particularly in FP1, occasionally I do fast forward. The AI are instantly quick though from their very first lap. They improve across to qualy by about 2 secs from FP1 where as my improvement is anywhere between 4 and 6 seconds. At first I thought ok it's down to my set-up and I need to improve but after a number of races even when I know I have a set-up which I can get pole with, I cannot get anywhere near the fastest time in FP1.
7) I will send videos next time the AI is all over the place on Blue Flags
9)It is something that has repeated a number of times where I got a warning for pitlane speeding at the start of a flying lap when the lights go out. It has only happened to me at Baku though so far. I have not used quick race mode. Team is Ferrari.
10) This is the link to TRL Matin's video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EX5S94BbIz0. As stated it was not TRL Martin cutting the corners he was ranting about the cheat that has supposedly got the fastest time. I believe that this is happening on most circuits as well because I have seen it here and some of the lap times on the leader boards are just not possible.

Look forward to these issues being resolved.

Two more cheats I have found on the time trail??????

The other cheat was at the end of TRL martin's video. I'm sure it's happening at most circuits?
