GridShinobi 14 Posted October 27, 2019 2 hours ago, GavinMac said: They are part of grid since the beginning, if you don't like them, don't use them, disable them in multiplayer or find another game. Maybe a flashbacked lap should not count in rankings but otherwise, get over it! Exactly, part of the game since the beginning and a choice, but since they are being used to achieve lap times on leaderboards this is an issue, combined with a bug that gives you a faster lap time. This game is a beta in its current state, what were the developers thinking making flashback laps count as times on leaderboards.... just goes to show how much this game was rushed and how unfinished it is with no testing whatsoever.... Typical gaming model...release it unfinished and update and update and update..... pathetic when you cant even get the basics on release.... Update to fix the flashback - but the leaderboards will still be made up of times that are 'unofficial' because of the flashbug….. and those times will never be beaten because its impossible without flashbug... Leaderboards need reset but that wont happen.... broken game. Get over it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ak1504 264 Posted October 27, 2019 (edited) For RaceRoom Racing the leaderboards get cleaned every time the car physics gets updated or when theres a bug. And they got deleted a couple times over the last years. Separate for every car class/track or even car model if needed. Fixing the bug and cleaning the leaderboards is what i expect from Codemasters too. We paid for that game @ChrisGrovesMCM Edited October 27, 2019 by Ak1504 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey - could you head into Technical Assistance and create a thread outlining this issue, along with a couple of example of this occurring on the leaderboards please? Thanks 🙂 I've seen instances of incorrect/unachievable times being recorded, but not reaching the leaderboard thanks to our systems that aim to prevent this. But if it's still occurring and we have examples, we can look into it further 🙂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisGrovesMCM 875 Posted October 28, 2019 Quick update: current target date/time for the Version 1.1 to be deployed is tomorrow morning, UK time (BST). As always, not set in stone and subject to change, but that's the current target. Will obviously keep you posted 🙂 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if it's still occurring and we have examples, we can look into it further 🙂 I can tell you the top time on the Xbox for Muscle San Francisco GP is definitely off. It's not the normal glitch I see where the time reads something ridiculous like 0.00.394 but is placed 4th on the leaderboard behind other realistic times. At 1:52.433, it is a full 13 seconds faster than the 2nd fastest time. The guy in second is one of the fastest guys on the Xbox using the fastest car in the class. There might be faster drivers, but not 13 seconds without something wrong (innocent glitch or cheating) going on. edit: You might also want to check the Xbox Group 1 GT Brands Hatch GP Leaderboard. Rank 603-607 have times of 00.00.079. Obviously a glitch and they are most likely in the correct spot. I'd say the top 2 times on that board are suspect, but not necessarily bad. The guy in 3rd sets some ridiculous times (in the Viper of all things), but there is probably room for better times than his. But 6 and 9 seconds faster from the top two times when no one else is close to that time is doubtful.

They cannot just release a 40 Gigabyte update that would neutralize every bug in the game, so you might have to be patient. Not everything can be solved at a snap of a finger.

Im out , votiing with my wallet next time , same old Codies. 👎 gamers of the past used to play demo before spend money. After a very good game demo was easy spend money and be sure about the game. Nowdays happen the contrary, many people buy and maybe start refund when possible. I think the best message for a company ears are the money talking. I'm on forum since 2009 (yes 2009, with the old forum black and Yellow for those who remember) and I'm asking (me and Others) for text chat and spectator mode from lobby since grid2 development. Codies never listen us, no text chat for grid2, autosport and now for the total multiplayer fiasco grid2019. After 10years of asking the same stuff and watching how cm everytime do less insteam to catch old standars… do you think there are chances to write here on forum and see something more than a patch with a list of fixes ? Here there is a long list of feature missing… no patch can cover that…. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There for sure is too much of a misconception here... I am not the guy you should be venting your frustration at. Blame the senior staff at Codemasters, for they set that timeline. This is an area in which Chris had no authority. Yes, maybe he could give them some advice, but in the end, they would had to review it, which takes time.

Totally, which is why i said before that heads should roll in senior management, Codemasters is one of the greats, when they put out a game that does not meet expectations then it affects the Codemasters brand, bean counters should not dictate release dates, if its not ready then it shouldn't be released or go onto early access like dirt! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
