We are sick of it EA! 80€ for not being able to play a "finished" game

Im sorry that I have to write this and I am talking for most league racers and multiplayer only players. Certainly for many people on our discord server... 

We are sick and tired of trying to play this years game! The multiplayer is unplayable and league racing, especially on old gen, is not possible. We are 40 days into the live cycle and still no fix for the unbearbale sound stutterings that are occuring in online races. This makes the game absolute trash and can be thrown in a bin. 

WHY HAS THERE BEEN NOT EVEN ONE APOLOGY OR AKNOWLEDGEMENT ON THE STATE OF THE GAME??? 

this is something that annoys me the most. 80€ for this game to not being able to properly play. Are you kidding me? No refund, no nothing! Nothing is coming out of EAs mouth. Not even a single sense of saying "sorry we messed up the game and should not have released it like this". 

Apart from the sound issues things like: 

1. glitched Formation Lap 

2. only host having hot tires with Formation Lap 

3. only 1 medium tire in the race 

4. broken penalty system 

5. not being able to invite while in the session 

6. host not able to kick multiple people 

7. Delta glitched 

8. Sector times STILL NOT WORKIN!!!! (how is this even possible? game doesnt show the Sector splits and also the relative split to the drivers PB) 

9. FFB losses on Thrustmaster and other wheels 

10. sudden frame drops 

11. game crashes and sudden disconnects from multiplayer 

12. SMOKING TIRES EVERYWHERE!! so annoying cant see anything

...make the game one of the worst Codemasters has ever made! 

I really want to enjoy this game like i enjoyed 2020. 2021 was bullshut but this game is no improvement. I ask myself how a game like this can even be released? with sound issues like the ones we are experiencing I simply cannot get my mind around how it is possible to not fix this before a game is released?!  

There is plenty of Leagues at the moment that cannot start with the season due to all the issues occuring in Multiplayer but hey, lets go for crossplay which is never going to work anyway instead of focussing on the real issues... 

Im seriously sick and tired of this and I am angry as hell at Codemasters and EA for fooling us once again with a Cyber Punk like game! Do you not feel sorry or feel bad for doing this? 

I really hope somehow FOM takes away your license for the Fornula 1 and we can finally play a serious game and nothing broken.

    @Dan78loki funny you say that Last years game I had it on strong.. but this year I’ve also found turning it off better.

    @Dan78loki of course overall teh wheel has always been the device with more potential for the general player. anything else doesnt make any sense. its a racing game. a wheel isnt a stick. so to expect a pad to be as "good" as a wheel is pretty nonsense. then go play mario kart or Need for speed.
    Still, the pad until this year was heavily benefited under traction and braking. especially in combo with noob abs on last years game a pad in wet conditions for example couldnt have been beaten by a wheel. it was simply impossible.

    the only difference now is that pad players will need a longer time to get used to it. just like people on a wheel. it takes ages to get used to not haveing any vibration that tells you "yep, youre about to lock up".
    and that is all it is. it will only take longer to learn the missing feedback on a controller.
    in our league we already have people on pad that are faster than the fastest wheel users on our discord. so its still possible.
    pad users are only crying because they need a while now to understand the mechanics since they changed quite a bit.
    overall its much fairer now. a wheel will always be superior and that is the rightful thing. we are racing, a stick isnt there to control a car.

    @Dan78loki and to add on that. you have a PS5 with a much better controller and feedback. the fastest guy on our server has a ps4 with vibrations fully turned off. just sayin. if he can do it, everybody can.

    I think I've realised that isn't so much the trigger but the stick.  Any turn I make seems to be too acute. This >s at default pad calibration.  

    I wo der if my stick  has an issue. I'm literally being so careful on the stick making incremental changes its hard to keep that up for mote that a few laps.  Compared to last years game seems a lot tougher for tiny corrections or steer angles.  

    I'm literally lost. It seems I lose tge car by having too much angle on, but that could almost be close to the dead zone or center. This is miles more apparent in wet which to me isn't fun even if dry is doable.
