Community ManagerAfter the 1.14 update I get some temporary game freezes / freeze frames about every 4 laps or so. The duration of the stuttering varies from a third of a second up to roughly one and a half seconds . I'm playing on PC. Anyone else experiencing similar issues since the update?
Thanks in advance.
i have played with some friends a multiplayer game. We had some issues
So.. here a list of what happened:
- i got kicked before starting a race with the error "not enough players to start the match", but we were 8 players (it was monaco, we had 20min qualify)
- when re-entering the race i tried to regain control of my car, but after choosing the option "take control" i could only see the IA running my car without having any hud or chance to take control of my car. After 2 full laps i exited and re-entered the session, but my car was retired
- one of the player saw this into the lap remaining to box:
(look at the blue number in the right-bottom corner)
- 2 of the CPU "forgot" to go into the box, so they didn't change the tire and got disqualified
- a CPU got the fastest time ever on monaco: 36 seconds
- after that we have to race in Baku. It had perfect weather, a perfect sun without any clouds.. but half of us had intermediate tires for the qualify session
- the smoke is too heavy and stays on track too much time, its really impossibile to follow other players
(in this screeshot you can see the smoke of only 2 cars 2 seconds ahead of me, a CPU and a player. When there are 4 or more cars you can't see anything, and this happen on EVERY corner)
I'm playing on PS5, but the game was in crossplay with some PC and some XBOX users. This 1.14 patch needs some work IMHO
Thanks. I'll try that today after work. My current settings were "TAA and Fidelity FX Sharpening" or something like that. Used to work pretty well up until yesterday
@marcusm2022 Thanks for the suggestion. I tried every setting possible but nothing changed. Even changed resultion as well. Generally I achieve the desired framerate. But the game freezes still occur, no matter what graphical settings i use. This makes the game literally completely unplayable since you tend to lose the car even in a straight line when driving on a wheel.
I sincerely hope for a quick fix to this issue since other users seem to have similar problems.
Is anyone else seeing the image flickering during normal race? I have done the benchmark which looked amazing, then every race seems like the frame rate went to 25fps.
I have checked every setting, normally i play in High quality but even in low settings still occurs.
It's been a year almost. everytime a patch comes out, something else breaks. enough is enough EA! please!! @EA_Groguet please someone do something.
I know this year sales haven't been good, but the game was still playable. Since yesterday I've been trying but for the first time in many years I don't really want to play. It's putting me off and i can only imagine how many other players are feeling the same.
i have the same problem
before this update, the graphics are all smooth and good
after this update, first need to set DLSS for better FPS
second, i think every lap will have a moment that suddenly frame drop, so many times i went off the track
I have same problem get random freeze and pc reboots. Totally ruined the game. Please roll back the last two patches 1.14 and 1.15
i have the same issue. it destroyed my league race and idk how to fix it. it is not my connection with more then enough mbps's to have a normal race. i had that before the 1.14 patch. idk what changed, but this is completely destroying league races
Same for me. Turning off DLSS mitigate the problem. Dev team needs to fix these frame drops. The depend on the track it seems.
Dear agony Aunt,
So a funny thing about traction in the full wet in Hungary. I Started a race and had good grip but had to quit unexpectedly to help the wife. When I got back to the game I had no grip but had to quit again. So I decided to restart the race when I knew I could do it in one sitting and had better grip than ever. Definitely better than pre 1.14. Was TC touched? Why is it good, bad, better? Am I losing my mind?

Hello,
The game is still experiencing random freezes, and I don't understand the cause. The 1.15 hotfix that fixes the smoke issue works well, but the freezes and the unusability of the Photomode are still present.

Same Problem here
Maybe it has always been this way but if I take an extra engine component before qualifying I lose grid spots, if I do it after qualifying I get told I will lose grid spots but start where I qualified anyway.
Oddly in each instance I had a mechanical DNF in the race, which could have been coincidental.
