When was the last time you played the game before this happened? Edit: Also, what platform are you on? Edited October 19 by s00zster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DHM9 24 Posted October 19 Was playing today after the patch update. Back on about an hour ago. Message was the same as last update, you can choose to apply the stat update or not. I'm on xbox1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
s00zster 262 Posted October 19 If there has been one, I'm guessing I didn't get it because I wiped my save data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DHM9 24 Posted October 19 Just started a fresh career and compared the stats with last update, no change for any drivers. Very strange ????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReimvomSchleim 166 Posted October 20 I also had an email saying that Driver stats have been updated, haven't noticed any differences though. Also playing on Xbox One 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petro1319 120 Posted October 20 Odd; I'm on Xb1 as well and haven't seen this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DHM9 24 Posted October 20 I checked out the driver stat table on the web page against the stats after the message and no change for any of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DRT-Apophis 101 Posted October 20 Mostly likely it's some players never noticed the last driver's stat update and just left the mail there until now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petro1319 120 Posted October 20 Today I got the message in my inbox for the drivers stat update. I did not apply it; instead I went into the new My Team mode I created last night and took a picture of each drivers overall rating. Exited. Applied the update to existing saves. Re-loaded the my team save. Went through the list of drivers again compared to my photo's.. There is ZERO change in any driver's overall rating. I didn't look at each of the 4 stats separately though. Just the overall. Example. Mick Schumacher was a 62 before the update. Still is. So what exactly changed here Codies? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DHM9 24 Posted October 21 This has to be a ghost mail. No mention of an update on the official site and no change to ratings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
s00zster 262 Posted October 21 Just had this mail myself now. No idea if the stats are included in the patch as standard or if the stats only come with the mail. Prior to applying the mail, on a fresh save with the new patch, I've been getting Albon on the podium, Vettel just got a podium in my latest race. Hoping the mail changes this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schneehase 27 Posted October 21 (edited) Yup driver stats have been updated together with the patch - there is a message in your in game mail asking if you want to apply the stats. There is an article about the driver stat changes on the games webpage, that article may have been published a little too late. Decent changes by the way, even if you can always question one or the other detail (where has Hamilton lost skill, where has Grosjean found any, how has Latifi improved way more than Gasly, say). And times i am thinking we could use a "talent" stat, or a "marketability" one. Hmm maybe that would be overdoing things, then again "experience" does not cover it all at least not for me - there is something that goes beyond experience, being a GP winner, being a champion, being a multiple times champion. That could be reflected better in the stats, I believe.

I accepted the ratings changes last night. Latifi is a 62 at the start of my new My Team mode. None of these other changes highlighted in the article show up in my game either.

F1legend7 1 Posted October 22 I’ve actually applied the update for the drivers stats but it didn’t even come through too my team. Bug? Anyone else? Xbox one x 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krisperfectline 63 Posted October 22 Hamilton’s awareness decreased by 5? Really? And they keep Bottas’ awareness at 99. So let me get this straight, Bottas, who lost the lead at the last race due to a lockup, basically has no effect on his awareness, which is defined as car control in the game. In Russia, Bottas could not get his qualifying lap due to cold tyres, and he even gave Mercedes’ main rival, Verstappen, a tow on his final lap. Unless Mercedes wanted Bottas to start P3 in Russia due to the cleaner side of the grid oferring a grip advantage at the start, then this is ridiculous to keep Bottas at 99 and Hamilton at 83. A 16 POINT DIFFERENCE? You are telling me that the best driver on the grid has 83 awareness? Similar to Vettel at 81 awareness? Who is just a spin magnet? Hamilton’s incident at Monza does not merit a -5. It was a very unique situation, and the team also has some of the blame on this. Russia’s incident as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xbox one x Same issue here. I had a second message in my "inbox" this morning about driver stat updates. I hit apply to existing saves. Popped into my newly created My Team. Latifi is still a 62, not the new rating according to their site. Has to be a bug of some sort, or do these ratings only apply in Career mode? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im assuming its the base stats that have been updated, so that might not effect the current stats depending on how far into the career you are 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
F1legend7 1 Posted October 22 Oh okay awesome.. I thought my save was bugged. So the updated driver stats I guess only are right soon as you start a new save? and then they change over time in general? So there price.. makes sense.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
