Re: Missing DELTA in races

Still waiting for an answer on this - I know it is a really simple display fix that they've disabled by accident and I know this from the trailer having a permanent delta during the race as well as the fact that the Delta works in practice. @EA_Kent can you please look at this for the next update? It is really ruining the race experience not knowing what lap times I am doing.

    Hi everyone, 

    Apologies for not replying here sooner. Do you mind sharing a few more things so we can pass this along? 

    • The platform you're playing on: 
    • Game version (you can see this at the bottom left of the start screen): 
    • 16 digit report code (visible in-game at the Pause menu or under Settings at the home screen): 

    Thank you!

    Hi @EA_Kent,

    from my side: PS5 - game version 1.11.918016 (AKA 1.10 hotfix) - report code MSSH-SHHD-HRVJ-BASC

    The issue has been perfectly described in the first post of the thread also compared with F1 2021 screen.

    Regards,
    Nuv

    Hello @EA_Kent ,

    I am wondering if the team is unaware of the missing delta after laps or the new delta that has been part of the prebuilds and removed with the first patch? 

    Until F122 we could see a red or green delta after each lap compared to my best lap. 

    The new live delta in races that appeared in content creators' videos before the release has been removed without any comment and all players are affected. 

    Please see here:

    And it feels strange that the team is not aware that the missing delta between lap times is a step backward.

    Thank you for the info! I will pass this along. 

  • @EA_Kent thank you for replying this. Just would like to put it in short, fully agree with the posts above

    1. Sector times don't show the Delta to your current fastest lap in races(they did in previous games)

    2. Lap times don't show Delta to your current fastest lap in races (they did in previous games)

    3. There is no permanent delta during laps to your fastest lap in races (like how qualifying does, this is a new feature we saw on gameplay in the link in the post above).

    The first two are major issues I'm having with races and feel like I have such a lack of information during the race.

  • This is unbelievable that a sim racing game does not have any time delta. What a joke to remove a race game base feature and add useless clothes skins. Another thing showing that EA destroys every license their hold.

    @EA_Kent it's been 3 months since you mentioned you were looking at this - is there any update? I am still racing and have no idea how fast I am going each lap without having to do mental maths every lap - I know this feature existed in previous games and and in the beta - it is the most basic feature - having a difference timer each lap, how can it still not be fixed?

    It’s a shame they just fully ignored this problem. 
    Such a simple, yet crucial part of the game. 
    Why oh why oh why would they ever remove it from the prebuild pf the game, and then remove it??

    Crazy some of the decision making with this game. 

    EA…
