I've just started playing tonight using my Fanatec GT2 wheel and it feels great. I'm having an issue though. I cranked up the difficulty settings and noticed I only received XP and credits after my first race. I subsequent races tally 0 rewards at the end.

Some people on the official forums say the bug may only manifest itself when using a wheel.

I did have an issue on Road Atlanta. I paused to turn off race music and when I unpaused, I had no force feedback. I power cycled the wheel and feedback returned, but then I noticed the reward issue. I'm going to restart my console and gather more data, but I thought I'd get the word out.
 
Yea, it appears to be a wheel issue. Pretty silly glitch to get through "testing" if you ask me.
 
Have you experienced it yourself? If so, have you identified any patterns to reproduce the issue?
 
Haven't got the game yet so nope. When I do get it, I will be testing it with the MS FFB Wheel. Will let you know how it goes.
 
It happens to me after the race only when I save the race replay.
 
My experience so far:

-Race 1: Received full credits and XP. Did not watch the replay.

-Race 2: No credits nor XP. Paused to turn off music, lost FFB. Restarted wheel to fix FFB. Didn't watch replay.

-Race 3: No credits nor XP. Watched a portion of the replay.

-Races 4 and 5: After completely powering off and restarting the console and wheel, I chose two races from the Event List rather than World Tour. Once I again I got zilch.

This is incredibly frustrating. I'll have to shelve the game until a patch or workaround is provided. Does anyone know of any official channels to report bugs to MS or Turn 10?
 
Should get exp if you start playing with a controller. Pretty crappy work around but it's the best you got.
 
The guy streaming on ForzaPlanet also appears to be experiencing the same bug.
 
yeah me too, on a wheel as well.not a big problem though as online racing always pays out.
 
Especially if you're spanking the pad guys' lap times I imagine. ;)
 
lol yeah, making 30,000crs in one 5 lap race! And I think I gains another level in just 2 or 3 race usually.
 
I didn't have issues yesterday then all of a sudden I get no xp/cr tonight...wth they better fix this soon.
