Project cars 2 bug report Q&A

Please list me 6 serious bugs then Mike. Maybe we disagree on what is 'serious'.

On the last game, which old bugs weren't fixed please?

@IanBell, not a "bug", but I'd REALLY like the game to store more than 1 gigabyte of replays on my hard drive.

I got that "1GB" error message when I tried to save my 12th replay, which is kind of absurd because my hard drive had over 780 gigs of free space.

One of the key reasons I gave up on Forza 6 was the hard-coded limit of 10 replays (along with a bunch of other silly design decisions which fortunately, SMS avoided as far as I can tell).

To put replays into perspective, I have over 1,000 GT6 replays on my PS3. I dig through these for photo opportunities. (I would have fewer if there was a good search facility)

It has to do with the number of track layouts and cars. The leaderboard possibilities exceed the console hardware in some way. I don't know what way, but it has been stated somewhere on here.

i think that can´t be true, e.g. DriveClub have for every car and track combination a separate leaderboard. and if you are driving you will see the Ghost of the car that is one step before you in the leaderboard. and this is working if you are number e.g. 17.575 in the leaderboard, too.

not only P1-30 in the leaderboard that saves Ghost´s like PCars1.

to have separate leaderboards for each car is very important, only if this is possible TimeTrial makes sense for most of the existing cars.

Those look just like the patch notes for the "in between" patch.

I'm just repeating what I've seen posted here.

Consoles will get the full patch a bit later. PC gets this in-between patch because SMS doesn't have to wait for the approval of 3rd parties (MS and Sony).

Yes it is on PC. The website reporting on it is simply wrong.

Not my fault... It says on PC AND CONSOLES...

I guess it's wrong. I read yesterday on the pcars forum that this is PC only.

The worst bugs are already fixed. There were 5 of them. Coming soon in a patch with the more minor issues mostly fixed also.

Cholton82 · Sep 29, 2017

At the first race in the lmp3 championship at Sugo I get a slowing down of the game during parts of the track and then it speeds back up , it's almost like slow motion for a second or two .

You'll get this at long beach and smother track

Betty blue · Sep 29, 2017

I don't know if someone experienced this but...

1: Lap times seems to be slower than they should somehow!

2: Dreadful understeer when tyres temperature is up to normal!

CorvetteConquer · Sep 29, 2017

The Corvette Z06 and I believe all or a few of the Ginneta racecars have audio issues.

Any other cars that have audio problems?

Forgive me if this question seems silly, but if the issues have already been fixed, why haven't they been released in a patch yet? :confused:

Are you serious? This thread's been open for barely more than a week, and has close to 500 posts. How about read the bug reports mate, there's a lot of work for you boys to do. I consider any bug that prevents fundamental parts of the game working correctly as serious, so even the bug that sees the AI put in unrealistically fast lap times when the player skips a qualifying session, a bug which has been present since the launch of PC1, is a serious bug to me. You might not agree, but nobody here can play the career right now because it's plagued with game breaking bugs. Now, I have chosen to not take my game back to EB, simply because it's obviously something special buried underneath all those bugs, and if you guys can get it all working properly I'll give you all the credit you deserve for it. But being arrogant on an internet forum isn't going to win you any fans when your game has such basic fundamental issues.

*raises hand* XBONE/Controller player here. I can play My GT4 Career just fine. Not just tolerable, but I am actually playing Career just fine.

I did experience the 46 second Pole time, by the AI, after I laid down a 1.13.000 for a Top 10 Qualy lap.

I set my races to 10min and skip a couple of the 30min sessions.

I also experienced this lift off oversteer. Was driving me nuts! After some investigation, I found I was just off the racing line into certain corners(at the entrance to the Stadium section in Hocken'ring and also the right hander at Silverstone Nat'l). I changed up my entry speeds, car placement and exit throttle. Now, I'm FASTER at those corners.

No doubt there are bugs, but a bit unfair with the "arrogant" talk, when SMS are listening, have made updates and are continuing to help the PCars2 Community.

I've done Long Beach in the GT4 championship in the Cayman and it was fine . I'll have another go and see if it does it with the lmp3 .

Sugo is definitely bugged. There's one particular left hander that slows right down then speeds up again just when you hit the apex. You have to clench and go for it.

EDIT: I have noticed if you follow the AI closely through the same corner it doesn't slow down all the time. Weird.

You don't speak for everyone in this thread.

I could have sworn that yesterday I loaded up my career, a few hours later I shut it down, and in between that time I had in fact 'played' it, but maybe I was just imagining things.

Yep, you're right, it sure doesn't.

This happens also in multiplayer at Sugo. (Report comes from a couple of friends of mine.)

PS4

Same goes for the first turn at COTA, It is really hard getting a good exit if the game speeds up

GOTMAXPOWER · Sep 30, 2017

Each time I pit in the Spa Global Endurance Trophy race the right front tyre pressure is increasing without any changes being made to strategy, its up to 79PSI now.

Edit: Left front is decreasing at the same time, at -4 PSI on the left and +94 PSI on the right now, this is in the Toyota TS040 on wet tyres.

Edit 2: Changing tyre compound doesn't help, the car is barely able to move at pitlane speed. Also selecting extreme wets has fitted the car with ice tyres.

Happy for you on XBone but up to now I have not seen the latest patches released for PS4 console and am eagerly awaiting.
