Tire Smoke under Braking - impossible to see

@EA_Vendcera please can this be passed on, there have been a few threads on it. It's a game breaking bug that affects league racing, online racing, etc. It's an unrealistic blast of smoke every time ...

@Dismal_Games No worries, I know it's quite a frustrating issue and can definitely impact visibility quite a bit. I hope we'll get a fix for this out soon.

Kindly support us in solving this issue. I am currently playing in cockpit cam and i cannot follow the cars in front because of the smoke - basically cannot see the braking markers and apexes. I have this issue on PS5 console - so no option to remove the smoke.

Thank you,

Andrei

Hi @EA_Vendcera, any news on this?
I would say it should have top priority, a lot of corners are impossible now when racing, visibility is close to 0 sometimes.
It also affects replays, there is a very pixelated and low quality cloud of smoke on hard braking corners and when the race starts, looks embarrassing.
Thanks!

  Hey @CriticalDamage67,
  
  yes, I totally understand. It's still on the team's radar but for the moment I don't have any further information to share of when we can expect a fix for it to roll out.

    This needs to be top priority, it affected my last two races getting wing damage because I cannot see a foot in front of me with all this unrealistic smoke.
