"Change Strategy" on MFD Issue - KNOWN ISSUE

Recommended Posts

If you read above, it's being dealt with. Further "I've got this too" comments aren't needed.

"I've got this too" (sorry) but did want to add supplemental information: the stuff Jeff says on the radio seems correct. He talks about rain letting up, getting heavier, etc, and the need to switch to intermediate/wet etc in response. That is to say, the virtual crew properly recognizes the changed circumstance, the problem is specific to the MFD interface's new strategy.

More formally:

1. DESCRIPTION: Known issue of, when weather changes, two problems arise: (a) the MFD prompts a new strategy, but the only strategies are keep current & track update (b) unless the player specifically selects the the type of new tires, the tires will not be appropriate for weather, e.g., rain will start, every other car switches to intermediates, and the pit automatically gives you medium compound slicks. However, on the radio Jeff appears to provide accurate information about the need to switch tires, so the problem is specific to the MFD interface's new strategy.

2. SYSTEM: PS4 Pro

3. VERSION: Unsure, but is latest update to PS4 as of July 17, 2020

4. MODE: Career My Team

5. REPLICATION: Have observed 5 times, including twice on the same race (Zandvoort, quit without saving, raced again, rain came in and same problem arose). I can't 'replicate' because AFAIK I can't create new weather mid-race, but that's how you'd replicate: start a race with no expected rain and a dry strategy, then have rain come in. New MFD strategy will be prompted, but there will be no actual new strategy, and pit-stop will continue to give dry weather tires specified by the pre-race strategy.

6. TROUBLESHOOTING: The 'troubleshooting' is for me to select tires myself then box this lap. This works, but is not ideal.

7. CONTROLS: Not related to controls.

8. DOCUMENTATION: N/A, identified problem.

When the team says it has a new running strategy in the BMF, the new strategy does not appear.

I have this problem too.  Guys, this bug is a shame!  Correct that quickly, please. 
Year after year there are more and more bugs, I haven't spent 80 euros on a game that is half finished.
When will the promised patch arrive? 

Thanks

Description
When given a new strategy, you are only shown the current strategy that you are on, and not the new strategy that you are being offered.

Can confirm this issue is still present in 1.06. I had reported this issue a while back and was told it was with developers and a fix had been found, so I'm re-reporting this issue under the assumption that it was supposed to have been fixed, but the fix isn't working. 

Version
1.06

Platform
PC

Game Mode
Driver Career, MyTeam

Peripherals Used
PS3 Dualshock 3 gamepad via SCPToolkit

Just wondering how this viable issue on the workflow which happens nearly every race has got past testers without being detected. Like "No need to test - it worked last year, will work this time as well."? 😄
