F1® 22 - Patch 1.06 Discussion Thread

There is a new problem, cockpit view in supercars, the textures doesn’t load anymore. Playing on series x 

Where is AI difficulty reset fix?

The automatic gear upshift is much more slower on v1.06 than v1.05. Prefer very much the v1.05. This new update is causing me to lose time per lap time Please revert the gear upshift to how it was on V1.05

since update 1.06 the car goes from major understeer hitting corners way slower then before to instant oversteer on my g29 i went from decent lap times to i cant get this garbage around the track to save my life give us old handling modeel back please this is now unplayable without rewinds now as car doesnt turn at all tire temps are always on fire with zero pressures game just sucks now please fix

The patch is a joke, every major stream but also Esportler think the patch sucks. The driving physics is a huge joke. On some tracks it is worse than in F1 2021. 1 month after the game is really out, they change the driving physics. It's about time that the F1 brand goes to a real developer studio.

I would like to know your impressions regarding the new patch, especially with the new driving physics. 

Just 2 simple answers, I like and I don't like it

Please mention if you use any simulator (Logitech, Trusthmaster, Fanatec, etc.) or if you use a controller or keyboard.

Since the update happened the upshifts take soo slow on auto gearbox. Every time it revs it all way so that Green, red and purple bit is blinking before it will go up to the next gear. This makes you lose soo much lap time. Also it’s impossible to have a good start on auto gearbox now. 

We need a new update fast so that we can make auto gearbox like it was before

Has it to do with applying the most recent patch 1.06 on exisiting saves? Kinda weird:

Imola, 103 AI Difficulty: Grand Prix Mode (Alpine, Alonso): Could follow the Mercedes and was easily best of the rest. 

Imola, 98 AI Difficulty: MyTeam Season 2 (on par with the Mclaren at the top of the Performance Charts); I can barely match the upper midfield runners. Not even talking about Mercedes and Mclaren at the front. 

I also tested Imola in a driver career (Mclaren, 103 AI) and i was not as fast as Norris but i was somewhere around him/at the right place considering the car i was in. 

MyTeam seems to be the most difficult game mode for some reason. The AI is insane. Even when i lower the difficulty by 5 clicks which is supposed to be like half a second/lap.

I've heard mixed reports on the matter. For myself (5900x/3080 - Reverb G2) performance in VR is worse with patch 1.06 and if I change video settings while driving (as TAA modes) the game will crawl to almost a freeze, sometimes recovering sometimes not. It never happened before, I could change settings on the fly without any issues, as it never happened to me that FPS took a sudden hit everytime particles (as smoke) appear firstly on the screen, or sometimes randomly while driving. I experience random frame timing spikes while before I was perfectly fine with the settings I had. Overall VR performance in my system has actually deteriorated with the patch. On the upside, however, visual quality is drastically improved while using TAA only so you can use that instead of TAA + Sharpening, recovering much of the performance loss.

What's your own experience with patch 1.06 and VR?

P.S: Also, CM, please introduce a setting to force the gaze to stay locked to the horizon in VR because mountains in the distance - for example - shouldn't be moving up or down with the movement of the camera. That's fine in 2D but in a 3D settings it feels really strange since that's not how human sight works. If you are at it then, you could also add some options to set how much the camera shake because with this last patch the latter seems increased to me (but it can be that's just placebo or I notice it more because frame times are more random than before).
