Re: Missing almost ALL assists after buying F1 24

@Cpayne32 One of the biggest problems is even when you see the assists and turn them off. Every time you start a race at least in Driver Career it turns on everything. You must go into settings and (Even though it says off.) Turn on Steering Assist which turns on others. Exit back to racing for a second then go back in and turn Steering Assist off to turn off all the assists that those of us that use Expert mode like to have off.

Then there is the problem of no wrecks causing Safety cars, no Mechanical failures. I'm half way through a full season on 50% Race length and not one driver has had a DNF. And these settings are turned on to Maximum, as well as Damage setting.

@sosasosasosasosa No your not!!! Just weird Codemasters design. You are not the first and won’t be the last 👍

@toxinrayn Had a Ai work around for this in last years game. Didn’t always work. But try Once lights go out. Pause game. Restart session. Goes back to race start. Sometimes would see more Ai damage

Ai damage doesn’t activate until race starts. Problem is it doesn’t activate after formation lap like it’s supposed to. Restarting session seemed to reset it.

I sent over pictures and videos and possible workarounds I’d tested to codemasters last year. They replicated the issue. It would appear this years game still has the same issue

Flashbacks May also be an issue. 🤷🏻‍♂️.

@ScarDuck14 Hmmm.. Will give the restart session a try, I'm on to Spa next, still no DNFs of any kind. (Even myself when my Engine was running at close to 400*F for the last 7 laps of Spain.) I want to see some immersion, safety cars, wrecks, retirements, oh and rain once would be nice instead constant scorched earth 100-120* Track temps no matter the location. What's with that???

@toxinrayn Yeah where I had this issue or similar last year. Where I also thought I didn’t really care about immersion. Found myself so frustrated I ended up deleting the game. Did play 350 hours. But considering I play 700 hours and up on previous games. It’s quite telling.

Issues around this do seem much worse. I used to always check pits stops after race to see that Ai cars never came in to replace front wings. Where in previous games especially in 22 there was always Ai cars that hadt to have a front wing change. Maybe more than they should but thought the balance was just about right

@ScarDuck14 They also have the durability completely backwards. Since Red Bull took over from Honda mid 22 they haven't had one Power Train related Retirement ever. Yet they are at the bottom of the list on durability.. Merc are at the top when they lost what is it now between them and their customer teams. 8-9 cars just in races and countless issues during practices requiring component swaps. These are easy fundamental things that you have to try and get wrong just to get wrong. And we get that ridiculous message from the Codemasters Dev about what they are focusing on. And it's moronic stuff that nobody cares about instead of the main issues.

@ScarDuck14 I did the restart session at Spa, there were more cars with a bit of front wing damage, but that just slowed them down. None of them ever replaced the wing. This is clearly a coding problem. Also there is a major issue for people who run cockpit view. If you have OSD off in cockpit view your engineer is a mute. Doesn't tell you anything, like goals while racing or you just got a speeding penalty, or to watch the corner cutting, or distance between cars front and rear. Just doesn't speak at all. Sometimes the radio menu won't even come up so you can ask the basic questions. You have OSD on while in cockpit view, which obstructs your view, he won't shut up....

@toxinrayn Just started a career. First race. Both Ferraris collide into turn 1 at Bahrain. Both with visual end plate damage. Was a two stop race. Neither car replaced front wing. They started race in 2nd and 3rd and finished 18th and 20th. 🤷🏻‍♂️.

@ScarDuck14 Ya I started mine day 1 of the early release. Which Steam completely screwed up. Which I verified file integrity and it found 7 files with problem. But I'm not liking the idea of starting over having invested over 20 hours into a Driver. Everything you do means something now. And like you, people starting over as of yesterday or today are seeing more realistic AI. I'm just hoping for a patch soon.
