Hey đź‘‹

Have any of you experienced an issue where players would get kicked out of online lobbies mid-race, usually at the beginning of a lap just after getting the lead in the race? The issue is specific to normal player-made online lobbies, not daily races.

This has happened to a few people I know, but I haven't seen much about it on Reddit or here. Wondering how widespread the issue is.

Yep, I've experienced the same issue twice today, both times while crossing the line onto a new lap while in the lead.

Beyond frustrating that they manage to actually include new lobby features with the update, and then mess up the lobbies to the point that they're legitimately unplayable. I really hope this gets fixed soon, not held back until a content update.
 
Yep. Happened to me at Yas Marina in a 3 lap sprint. I was the lobby host and my game crashed as soon as I crossed the finish line of Lap 1 in first place. The other participants got the message, "The Host has terminated the session" (or something to that effect), and were kicked out of the lobby.

It happened during Car of the Week's usual 2 hour lobby session where we run around 6 sprint races. Yas Marina was Race No. 5, and the issue did not occur in any other race, even when I was in the lead. It MIGHT be an issue tied to Yas Marina, but I don't have enough testing to say definitely as of now.

This is something I have been noticed by a friend of mind and witnessed it with my own eyes too (happened at Yas Marina as well). I will ask them to check on this matter.

Can anyone confirm whether this happened at other track than Yas Marina too? Or was it at just Yas Marina only?
 
Experienced this bug as well. Disconnected each leader of the race as they crossed the finish line each lap.

Host had to shut down the lobby and restart, no idea what caused the bug other than it being the second race run after the room was up.

Happened to us at Tokyo, so don't think it's the track.

Happened to me at Daytona as well.

Could be wrong but I believe it's whenever the race leader sets a new fastest lap. Has happened consistently across several tracks and several types of lobby (public, friends, private) so I don't think it's anything to do with those.

However, it has consistently happened after the lobby settings have changed at least once, so that might be a clue worth looking into. @Mikail Hizal

Happened 3 times to me last night at 3 different tracks but didn’t happen to my m8 he thinks it’s cause he was less than a second in the lead and I was 2-3second in the lead when I crossed the line
 
I was due to take part in a 3 hour Le Mans race yesterday evening, and we had to postpone the race because of this bug. It didn't occur in Sport Mode, so that's all that matters to PD.
 
My game crashed again as I crossed the finish line of lap 1 in 1st place, this time not as the lobby host. This happened at Tokyo Central Counter–Clockwise (Inner Loop).

RX8 Racer also had the same issue in the same race on Lap 2, again when crossing the finish line in 1st place.

The lobby host, Vic Reign93, has shared the replay publicly:



Given that only Singaporeans had encountered this issue in that particular instance, perhaps the issue is somehow regional in nature?

I caught this happening on a live stream that I believe someone tagged you on in the GT7 discord.

It seems to be when the leader sets the fastest lap, which means the person leading on the end of lap 2 is doomed.

See link. It boots the guy in the lead, then me on the next lap, both of us were setting a fastest lap as we crossed the line. It's a full crash from my perspective.

I lead a lot of races and set a lot of fastest laps, so it's crashing so often for me the game is unplayable.

Here from 30:50

This happened to an American that I was in a lobby with, it's not a regional issue.
