@jenny_a_m FEEDBACK ON THE PATCH (after testing it):So, to those wondering how it works..- CHINA can be added to the calendar between Australia & Imola:- PORTUGAL can be added to the calendar between Mexico & Brazil:This is how it works for seasons of 10 or 16 races.I don't know how it works for seasons with 22 races, but I can only assume all you need to do is to replace TWO of the original 22 races by China and Portugal.It's great to have them in the calendar from Season 2 onwards - thanks to the devs for that - HOWEVER.. it would be great to be able to insert them anywhere in the calendar in the place of any of the tracks we are replacing - for example.. on a 22 races season, let's say I take Baku and Zandvoort out.. then I could put China or Portugal in Baku's place and the remaining track in Zandvoort's place - etc, etc, etc..I think it would be cool if we could 'build' our calendar EXACTLY as we can do when we create an online lobby ourselves - using that same screen and 'mechanics' to add tracks (in any order we want) - just a suggestion.....About the tyres selection, here's how it works if you click on the TYRES ALLOCATION option BEFORE going into the Race Weekend:Now we have 3 options to choose: SOFTER, BALANCED and HARDER - I believe the BALANCED one is the previous (and only) default option and the other two are as it follows:BALANCED (original/default):SOFTER:HARDER:In all options, you still have 8 sets of Softs, 3 sets of Mediums and 2 sets of Hards, but they're distributed differently throughout the sessions.I still need to test them all and get to know exactly how they work for the actual race, depending on the compounds you use during all the previous sessions (FPs and Qs) and also what compounds (and how many sets of each) you have available to you during the actual race, both when you go through all of the previous sessions and also when you just skip everything and go straight to the race - but all in all, I think having these 3 options really already helps a lot, depending on the intended race pit stop strategy the players want to use.BUT, it's also good to check and see if everything is actually working properly, since there are people talking about lots of cars getting DNFed for 'not using different compounds', even when they actually did it - maybe a glitch that would require a patch hotfix (what a surprise, am I right?!..)...I did these tests on an 'old' save (MyTeam, end of season 5 and beginning of season 6) and it all seemed to work just fine - we already noticed that some 'old saves' could have issues after some of the latest patches, but fresh new saves used to work perfectly fine, so.. if you guys can, simply begin a fresh new career just to make sure no glitches would happen - but I also ask the devs to do all they can to NOT 'force' the drivers to drop their old saves and restart their careers from scratch on each new patch - this kinda sucks, come on.....On a negative note, I was hoping that the new patch would help to solve a problem that's been happening to me and some other players on Steam as well for about 2 or 3 weeks now, but.. the problem is still there:I just can't join any cross play lobbies and I keep getting the error message below - if I turn cross play off, I can join Steam only lobbies just fine:I play the game on a PC, through Steam and I have the Champions Edition version of it (not that it matters, but just to let you guys know).....All in all, it was a good patch and I hope you guys can keep trying to make this game better and better - it's still far from perfect, but it still has a LOT of potential and it CAN be improved before we need to wait for F1 23..Quick ad:I stream my F1 22 gameplays on Twitch, almost daily (MyTeam during the week days and Open Lobbies on the weekends - at least before I was getting the damn PM7 error above) - small streamer trying to grow - any support is more than welcome:Twitch.tv/SexyBrigadeiro Cheers, everyone!

Portimao and Shanghai circuits are now available in Season 2 and beyond in Career modes.Added an option to allow the player more flexibility in tyre selection per session during a race weekendYES!!!

EA adding a patch that breaks something else or the added features don't work properly? Huh. Would have never guessed. 🤷♂️

I thank the devs before to download the patch because in any case it means they listen to the forum even if sometimes there is also too much complaint.
I’m curious to check which workaround has been possible for tyre choice during the weekend and I’m confident it will be even better in F1 23 🙂

@Nuvolarix Im fearing its only for the player and the AI doesnt do it but i have to test that later..

Now i want more temperature depth even more as when tyres dont heat up enough softer tyres would be better, when its hot harder would be better.. It could be soooo good haha

I hadn't considered that the AI might be untouched. AI tyre strategy has been pretty awful since release. If they're not bound by the same rules, it has the potential to result in huge strategic bunnyhops for the player. AI having to pit twice for 2 Softs rather than a set of Mediums, for instance.
Oh crikey...

Using TMX wheel, having issues with long load and save times, wheel inputs not working (dropping out of computer control and a wheel turn causes the menu to pop up). Xbox one.

Nice work EA!
Portugal and China being implemented in career now is great, should have been that way from the start though! Great to have the new visual updates to the F1 cars as well; they look great! Still wish it was sooner but nicely done! The tire changes too; not perfect but a much better solution than we had. Nice work team.

@jenny_a_mWhat have you done with DLSS in VR? It doesn't work anymore, the image is at a super low resolution, with shimmering everywhere.

Is it possible that in every single patch you break something? Already you are putting very little work in VR (if none) and now you even break config settings for it.
