awaiting information Overtake keeps resetting to "Toggle" + some other settings

[Aparow3 27]

Description: When starting the game, the Overtake setting resets to "Toggle". Other settings that also reset are: Permanent Session Timer (P/Q), Virtual Rear View Mirror, Mute By Default (Multiplayer). This only happens on the Xbox Series X. Syncing a save between XSX and XOX always shows those setting as correct even though they were reset on the XSX. The settings that are getting reset only save during the play session, but when the game quits, they aren't actually saved.

Platform: Xbox Series X (Xbox One X)

Game version: 1.13

How to replicate issue: Set Overtake to "Hold". Quit game. Start game. Overtake resets to "Toggle" and some other settings reset as well.

Workaround: N/A

Peripherals: Xbox Series X controller

Hi @Aparow3,

I've tried to replicate this and failed. Are you trying to change this in the 'Game Options' section or while in session?

Could you provide a full video of this so I can take to the devs please? Thanks.

I've updated the first post with more details. This one is really weird. I started my save on the XOX, set those settings, and eventually synced it to the XSX. Without changing any settings at all, on the XSX those 4 always reset when starting the game, but if I sync the save back to my XOX, they always appear to be set properly even though they were reset on the XSX. It's like those settings are always saved, but the XSX can't read them and just reverts to the defaults, without affecting the actual save.

Hi @Aparow3,

I tried testing this on my Series S at home (still at the office - thanks COVID) and this didn't happen. When changing the settings, do you get a small pause while the game is saving those settings?

@BarryBL

I noticed the game seems to save the settings every time when backing out of menus, even when no changes were made. Even with those settings reset and auto-saved by the XSX, they still show up correctly on the XOX. Could this be some kind of sync-related issue? I tried syncing back and forth between the XOX and XSX and the XOX always shows them correctly, while the XSX resets them on every start of the game, without actually saving them when quitting the game.

Thanks @Aparow3,

Are you playing the game via a disk at all? I'm just trying to work out quite what's going on here. Do you have a number of control schemes for your controller at all?

@BarryBL

I have a digital copy of the game. I use the default controller scheme. I only changed the Overtake setting to "Hold".

I have no idea what caused this. It happened ~10 times in a row, but now it no longer happens. I've been able to launch the game for another ~10 times without those 4 settings reverting to defaults.
