Subaru Impreza WRC 1998 wrong transmission type text
Product: EA SPORTS™ WRC
Platform:Steam-PC
Summarize your bug Wrong transmission typy shown for Subaru Impreza WRC 1998 in the car selection menu.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Look at the car info in the car selection menu.
What happens when the bug occurs? Spread if missinformation and people who use both sequential and h-pattern shifters with manual auto select setting might think they need to use sequential shifter even though the care is actually h-pattern. The sequential shifter won't work because the manual autoselect correctly has this car in h-pattern mode.
What do you expect to see? The text in the car selection menu changed to be correct.
Me and probably other have reported this as part of other posts in the past but it still has not been fixed altough small and simple thing. The car is h-pattern but is reported as 6 speed sequential in the car menu. The manual autoselect option for transmission selects h-pattern with the car. Also you can see that it has a h-shifter in the modeled car interior. The car was h-pattern in real life so the previous 2 points mentioned are correct, so only the menu text would need to be fixed.
Also related to this, I am pretty sure that the car despite having h-shifter was dog box, meaning drivers could shift withouth clutch just by lifting of the throttle. There are many other cars like this in the game I think so it would be nice if support for h-pattern dog box was added to the game. (Also fun fact, manual sequential transmissions also have the so called dog box but just with sequential shifter and automatic cut off for throttle (thus the manual part.)
