Guys, thats not funny, that with a controller the game is still unplayable...

I'm going to check with the handling guys but I disagree that the game is unplayable. I play every day with an Xbox 360 controller on PC.

Doesn't load f1 2015.

Is this the issue with particles being on High or Ultra High? Have you tried turning them down to Medium to see if that will work? Let me know.

aaron685 you're on the wrong thread and no there is no information yet.

@hobbsy777 you're doing something wrong ;). Make sure that C:\Users\your.name\Documents\My Games\F1 2015\hardwaresettings exists and is not read only. You should have two text files in there.

There are those two text files.

Ok, on my system everything is good, constant frames, no drops, very smooth.  I'm playing on high settings,  PC: i7 3770, 8gb ram, gtx 960 4 gb, fanatec csr wheel. With these settings i'm really enjoying the game in the single player part. ( i'm not talking about multiplayer,  cause i d'ont play, but seems to be the big problem this year!)

BAH!
I do not understand if it's a joke or really you have no idea what you are doing.
A tip: take out the latest patch and let the game go back as it was before. He sucks anyway, but at least it was a little playable

That's that problem solved then.

I'm not understanding why you're so worried about VRAM usage, if it's more than your card can handle and makes things slow then turn some settings down. I would image that we've got a lot of high res textures in there but without asking I can't be certain.

The long shutdown is terrible, it's something we need to look at for '16 though as there are bigger issues for this game at the moment.

Don't waste our time by "imagining',  go and find out.  Give us strength,  you told us you would be the conduit of communication!

Would love to know what those bigger issues are that you are going to fix for us, because outside of the online stuff (No offence to the onliners, you waited a long time), there really wasn't much of anything in this last patch as far far as the core game goes. In fact Quali is even worse now, at least that is what I experienced in Brazil.

The parcferme bug is still in the game. I did an online short qualifing with some league members and I can not change my option tires while parcferme is active. I also noticed  a problem in Melbourne. In turn 4 my car gets reset all of a sudden. I suffered this probelm online and offline during the race.

I have to say: adding more amount of details (like rubber or grass) is ok, but multiplayer... is broken again! Cars are lagging, ghosting... pit stop crew sometimes wont let you out from pit. I hope for a quick hotfix, because now the game is unplayable (again)!

Here's the feedback I can share from 2 test races we did so far. We are running a last one tonight before starting a 2014 season because of 2015 being unplayable.

First Test:
- Hoster: Myself, 50Mbps/50Mbps up and down fiber connection
- 11 or 12 players, Track: Australia, All Assists, Equal Cars, Realistic Damage, Return to Garage Off, Parc Ferme On.
- Short Qualifying and 50% race.
- Qualifying session worked well no one complained.
- Race starts and within one lap everyone dropped out. Disconnection, kicked from the host.
- We decided to do race only with the same lobby setup and random grid positions. We raced everything was good and no lag it was all smooth.

We agreed to do a second test later in the week because of the mass disconnection.

Second Test:
- Hoster: Someone else who hosted many races in our league last year, 150Mbps down and 30Mbps up. Fiber also.
- 10 players, Track: Canada, All Assists, Equal Cars, Realistic Damage, Return to Garage On, Parc Ferme ??.
- Short Qualifying and 25% race.
- Qualifying Session was horrible. Everyone was ghosting around. All drivers experienced the same thing as I did. I was following someone in my fast lap and decided to overtake at the end of Sector 1 and after overtaking him he disappeared. I though maybe he went back to garage but I catch him again at the hairpin end of Sector 2. After asking if I had overtaken him earlier on the lap, he said no I never saw you close. So his car was ghosting and driving slowly both times I overtook him. I thought maybe it's a lag issue only with this driver. In that same session, one driver complained not being able to go out of the pits (already being mentioned in this thread).
- Race: Everyone was ghosting around. It was ridiculous just like if the game was never patched. Cars going into the walls left and right, cars that I would overtake and come back in front of me a few corners later. Fastest Lap being displayed while the P1 drivers was just in front of me and the last chicane. Passed P1 in the second lap and suddenly 3 corners later I'm back second. Cars driving slowly around (they look like AI Controlled but driving slowly). So we ended this race saying we need to go back to 2014.

We are giving F1 2015 another shot tonight. This is the last test, if it's not successful we will go back to 2014.

I read a lot on this forum but rarely post but this time I feel I got stolen, robbed, ripped off with this game. I mean we all knew 2014 was 2013 with the new cars basically and it would be the same game but at least the game was working. This year, you guys came out with a game that wasn't tested. I don't know if you guys are doing your test in a LAN network but you guys have to think about the real world here. We are playing all across the nation. Since this game has been out, we (players and consumers) are testing your product and reporting. Bugs there is in every game but bugs that makes the game unplayable that's not acceptable from a company who has been doing F1 games since 2010. This game was out 5 months ago and still having the same issues. 5 months and we can't play online.

After the last patch I couldn't start a race anymore. I always had a crash to desktop at the loading screen of the race, where you can choose the race options. Before the patch I used the same UltraHigh settings as I have a highend PC with Intel i7-4790K CPU, 16 GB DDR3 RAM, SSD-Drive, Windows 7 and a Nvidia GTX 980 with 4 GB VRAM and had no problems at all. First I did a file integrity check with steam, but that helped nothing. After several hours of testing I couldn't find a solution and was really ANGRY about your lousy patch. Randomly I read a comment here, that the video settings for the particles must be set to MEDIUM to prevent the crashes. And the guy was right! All my other video settings are on the highest possible value as before the patch. HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN? You should urgently rethink your quality management. Don't you test your patches on highend PCs with the highest possible values for the video settings? Your customers are not your beta testers. And NO, I won't buy any Codemasters F1 game in the future anymore. I'm fed up with your company.

A very ANGRY customer

BOICOT TO CODEMASTERS. Codemasters has no idea of ​​F1 games.

Frank258 try turning particles down to Medium. This crash has been reported by a handful of people, we're looking in to it. Changing the particles setting will work around it for now.

Dark6031 thank you for the information, that's very helpful. How did the final test go?

Roughly where are the other players located and what are their internet connections like. A host on a very nice connection is great but if everyone else is on dialup halfway around the world then the performance is going to be bad, there is nothing we can do about that.

It would also be interesting to know what performance is like on 2014 with the same players.

Good evening Codemasters

Will there soon be an update to the latest catastrophic Patch?

We have just discovered new problems and not know what to do!

Our league is just before leaving your game series since unplayable.

Your would have been better left the game, instead of bringing such a lousy patch.

Best regards

Dave

@Lozzy, first of all, I create one topic about my ALT+TAB problems and you told me to send to you my DxDiag, I just sent it last friday, ok?

Now my problem, have you noticed that cars suddenly appears in rearview? Im on PC, playing as Rosberg at Chinese GP. The cars should appear as a small point and get bigger when it comes near, right?

Hey Codemasters! if the game remains in this state, I would like my money back! I am very disappointed!

Hello Codemasters !
I have a big problem with F1 2015 : my fps drops a lot when I play (with the last patch, on Win 10 and with the lastest graphic driver).
I think it's a problem about the graphic memory used by the "game". I have a 770 GTX Geforce (2GB) and with all the graphic settings (ultra or lower), I have this problem. When I start this "game", I'm at 60 fps, in the second lap I'm at 50 fps, in the third lap 40 fps, in the 4th, 30 fps...
I have this problem only with this "game". I don't understand why... We are 4 months after the game's launch and I can't do any entire race !

Is there a pilot in the plane ?

I am surprised that you are doing that well with that amount of Vram. I have a 4g GTX 970 and am monitoring my game through all sessions constantly, reporting that some tracks my usage is in excess of 3.5 gig.

I'm a ps4 player currently waiting for the ai proformance patch could you guys tell me what the main difference is with the ai please? I'm playing a season with hulkenberg and am praying perez is gonna be a lot faster when we get the patch

[hobbsy777 0]

The one thing that has changed is the Quali times. They are quicker.

Do they use rich mix in qualifying?

[Laurent701 0]

Had two 100% race, i think the Ai have now more realistic grip when drive out corners, before patch they blow away, now it's much better, i'm able to stay behind Ai( driving Torrorosso, Pro mod), it feels more right now.
Good thing....
