Need some help? Something in patch 1.05 not working the way it should? Tell us in this thread here!

@jenny_a_mThanks for the patch, but improving traction? The game already felt too easy on NoTC... I was hoping it would go the other way
LoL
* You can't view AI lap times in Race Director anymore.
* Not sure you have tested the new torque model on a track like Monaco... somethings not right with no traction until mid on the straights.
** For the love of god why is tyre wear and engine wear still at 50% distance in full length practise sessions? If you can figure it out for full-length Qualifying, surely you can do it for practice.
Has the medium TC been made easier to use then because of Torque and gear ratio amendments?
End of the day these games are best on wheel, we all know that. I've done my time with pc sim racing and wheels so I'm just gonna have to put up with med=low trc.
Think gonna call it a day with pad and this topic lads, I'm not sure cm will tinker this much more for pad users at the detriment for the wheel users... And rightly so
May take a loss and trade it in before trade ins hit rock bottom with this title.
Thanks now we cant see other drivers lap times in race director, now only your own, so now you cant see the times increase by 1 to 3 seconds when fast forwarding in Qualifying you think we are idiots so that is how you are going to fix it how stupid give me a break.
Still impossible to drive without TC, I've always played like that but this year those bugs are ruining the game ☹️
Games gone from fun to drive to completely undriveable for me. Same difficulty and setup as before but now about 2-3 seconds a lap slower than the AI (which was set so I match my teammate) and absolutely zero grip. Add on top the AI's completely overpowered traction (wet race starts are just completely impossible by the way, AI start like it's still dry).
I've had to stop playing because it's just utterly infuriating.
setups will change. pressures you need to run very low now otheriwse you wont have any grip

Didn't tested the new model yet but I can confirm AI laptimes are much better than before (I have simulated some quals), in some tracks 1 second.
If AI is simply "improved" is still ok, I just hope it hasn't "broken" traction in comparison with human player instead... 😕

Completely the same for me. Just tried a grand prix against the AI on Zandvoort and Jeddah and both were just impossible to drive against on my normal level. No grip, no traction and my front tires overheated within 2 or 3 laps... No fun at all. Guess I have to lower the tyre pressures significantly, especially on the front.
