Checkpoint Glitches in NFS Heat.

Product: Need for Speed Heat
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Summarize your bug Anyone else jumping into an online race (with or without players) and the game doesn’t register you driving through one of the marked checkpoints on the course? Happened several times to me last night during The Hotel Resort, Valkyrie Heat 3 race, and the Flying Dutchman among others. Any word on this being patched? My account is BrizzleQ. Thanks
What car were you using? Nissan 180sx
Was the car your own build or downloaded from the in-game community? Personal Build
What was the last event you played? Flying Dutchman or The Hotel Resort
Was it a day or a night event?
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Driving in an online server.
What happens when the bug occurs? No race completion is accurately tracked.
What do you expect to see? 100% acknowledgement of checkpoints being crossed through.

    @BradH094 Does it only happen a little bit to you or every race because it happens every race to me if not or if so and you found a way to fix it how?

    It only happens to me sometimes. Only way to fix it is to either turn around and go back through the checkpoint that didn't register or restart the race.

    It’s been doing this to me since I’ve downloaded this game. Literally have restart races just because of this. Hopefully they will patch it. I’ve only gotten to complete 5 races because of this.

    Hi guys, can I check if any of you play offline do you encounter the same issue? Do you happen to notice this happening around any networking-related glitches?

    @EA_David Hey David, it was only occurring whenever I joined an online lobby and it didn't matter whether I was racing with other players or by myself while in the online lobby. I tried resetting my router and it did not change anything upon my next playthrough, however, the problem seems to no longer be occurring. So there was no immediate impact when I reset my connection, but eventually the problem seized. It was basically that the game took time to register me running through a checkpoint and by the time it did register, it was often the case that I crossed a second checkpoint already, leading the game to force me into repeating the checkpoint that already driven through.
