PS4 Patch - Update 26th November

[Lozzy 0]

Hi everyone, unfortunately we’ve found an issue during testing that means we’re not going to be able to release the PS4 patch ahead of this weekend’s Grand Prix as we had originally planned. Our cut off to submit to Sony was 11am GMT and despite our best efforts we’ve not been able to solve the problem to our satisfaction. We’re disappointed to miss the deadline we had set ourselves but ultimately releasing a patch that introduces new problems is not acceptable.

The Xbox One patch release should not be affected by this delay.

We thank you for your continued patience and we will update you once we have further news.

I was literally about to post a new topic asking where the new patch was, as it was cutting it fine in time for this weekend's grand prix.

I appreciate your honesty and agree the patch should be delayed until it is at a satisfactory standard.

Ok, the patch will not be available for this weekend, but which is the new expected date for the patch, you are not going to say until Christmas, are you?

Thanks

Shock!!

I'm thinking with them saying the Xbox patch won't be affected by this that the ps4 patch will now be after the Xbox patch. Am I right codemasters?? Hope I'm not.

Oooooooooooh drew the short straw sir??

Now you can find out if everyone is as forgiving as they say they are when it comes to quality versus speed to market.

We need to get to the bottom of the problem, then we can think about new dates. Once we've done that we will know when we can submit to Sony and when the patch will be out. I know it's frustrating not to know exactly but we're in a no win situation by saying something now if we're not sure we can achieve it. We're talking days though not weeks.

I'll sort the patch notes out soon and get them posted. I'd rather spend my time getting the problems fixed so we can release it than telling you what's in something we can't yet release.

It's bad news but thanks for keeping us informed on current progress, that's all the majority of people want on here. Thank you.

So looks like i'm not going to say sorry....full of it lads...I don't believe anything you tex any more.if I run my company like this,i'd be looking for a new job.

Its a shame how some of the F1 "fans" give their reaction. 

I appreciate all the work you guys do. Good choise to postpone this patch and hopefully soon the game will be like how you want it to be.

Keep it up!

Simplemente decepcionante como todo lo que hace Codemasters. Sois la peor escoria del mundo.

[Gadir 0]

When you are going to launch the patch? Coinciding with the release of F1 2016? HAHAHA. Just do well to deceive people. Thanks for nothing.

Better than releasing a patch, that breaks more stuff :)

right now the biggest problem we've had on the F1 league is the yellow flag glitch through 2 rounds on AOR. i'm more than happy to wait for the patch to be perfected rather than get one that breaks something and screws up the online racing. There's been minimal lag despite having people from all over Europe and a Canadian and track limits are dealt with through recordings while we patiently wait for the new track limit rules. Right now online is as stable as its been so far and people can race wheel to wheel, all thats needed is for codemaster to fix a few bugs, work on the netcode a bit to make it even more stable and lag free and give us the new penalty system. Hopefully the patch is out next week

Well I guess I was right, and won't have to eat any crow. I wish I could say I am shocked but I'm not. What a joke, we'll get our "in season" update etc after the season is over.

You would prefer a broken update? I'm sure I can arrange that for you if you like.

No we'd prefer the game was right from day one. No offense.

Now a have to wait for a update because a issue on the multiplayer, i dont iether play it online so bring me the update

@Lozzy, I guess I'll ask the question on everyone's mind, what exactly was the problem that you guys encountered prior to the Sony submission deadline?

Not being able to check the weekend weather is very frustrating. I was hoping it would be included in a further patch but I am afraid it won't. I don't consider it a feature since we already had that in previous games. I bet this addition wouldn't require much work from you (Am I wrong ?). Please advise if we can still expect that to be added into F1 2015 or if that's something for F1 2016 only. Thank you!

I agree, besides all the issues, this is something that disappointed me a lot, first we had the free practices gone, now they returned but without the proper weather forecast.

Lozzy is this planned to be still included in 2015?
