so, 1.07 patch and yet have tyre allocation bug? i trying race on hungary with 100% of laps (70 laps) and only can select 1 hard tyre and 1 medium tyre on race, impossible do the ideal strategy used on real life with 1 soft and 2 medium tyres
+1. This wasn't a huge issue for me before the 1.06 patch, but now softs heat up so much that sometimes it'd more viable to go on an alternate strategy involving multiple medium sets.
I don't mind the realism there, IRL F1 teams have to deal with tires getting too hot or not hot enough so I'm fine with making those kinds of decisions. But when you combine the game's dumbed-down tire allocation with the fact that the AI aren't affected by tire temperature at all, it just becomes unfair and frustrating to manage.
What Codemasters could do regarding this, is that you solely use Soft tires in Qualifying, and that the race allocation has two Medium compound sets and one Hard compound set. Combined with the Qualifying sets you would have 4 Soft sets, 2 Medium sets, and one Hard set, which is pretty standard from the previous years.
I do strongly suggest voice your concerns and bumping the previously linked thread up, just so Codies/EA maybe hear our concerns...
And while I'm hoping this does get resolved by Codies/EA.. At least for PC players, for now I do recommend checking out RaceDepartment mod section, as I may have taken a lil attempt of fixing this myself.
*Be warned tho, you may have to backup your saves and be willing to take the risk of a corrupt/unloadable race weekend...
Has worked for me fine so far tho, but have gotten some unfavored responses as well sadly.
But the point is, if me, some plebian with a cheat engine can sort this out... surely Codies/EA wouldn't have a issue, right ?
