OK so was enjoying this game until now, i will be driving along a road then the road just turn to like a dirt track and car gets stuck and locks game happening each time i play this game now and have not found a fix anyware is there a solution to this bug yet ?.also my game pad rumble goes crazy hope ea replaces my xbox pad when it brakes.loss of all objectives and sp this sucks.

@Caprica--S6X , @StevenMoza , @piggysnakes , @19NLX78 , @Darius-4000-xxx , what version of the game are you all running? The x86 or x64 version? If you're not sure, look in the Rivals properties tab. Depending on your system, run one or the other. If you have a lower to middle end system, run the x86. When this happens, do you bring up the task manager as soon as it happens? Wait a few seconds and see if it's goes into a "Host Migration" screen. Not sure if you've experienced this or not, but whenever a host of a session leaves, the server will assign another player as the host. Will happen in the middle of a race, being chased by cops, or chasing racers, etc. No given warning. You will all of a sudden lose control of your car, game will freeze, graphics issues can occur, etc., because the host player left, the server has to collect all information from remaining players, save the current progress of each player, and reset the host. then place all players still in session back to where they were. Depending on your systems specs, network ping times, your internet provider speed, it can take longer. If that's not the issue, try adjusting your graphic settings. Go to the lowest settings and work up to find the best setup for your game. If none of that works, try doing a clean boot and then run the game: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135 You'll have to go through trial and error, "rinse and repeat" to figure out what's causing it. You can also add a dxdialog notepad doc to a reply post and one of teh EA moderators on here can get it to the tech team to look over, or someone on here with the right knowledge can look through it and help further: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Run-DirectX-Diagnostic-Tool Hope that helps all of you out on this. I have a higher end system, and I've experienced some of these issues when migrate happens. On top of that, not sure if you all are on PC or console, but this game wasn't optimized too well for PC. Some of the dev team need to play this game on a lower end computer. One that's at/just above system requirements for this game and see a lot of the bugs/glitches that are in it. Come up with a patch to fix them. Majority of GHOST team are from Criterion anyway. Right? Anyway, hope a solution can be found for you all.

I have to agree with mightybeast this bug is so ridiculous and a show stopper that ruins the whole experience for me. The road will suddenly disappear and a dirt path will appear with the car being stuck and your unable to do anything but open the task manager and end the game. Often I have to reset. I've repaired through origin I've un-installed and re-installed it and done countless possible solutions that haven't worked.In short, this bug should be dealt with since why are you still selling a game that has a serious bug that ruins peoples experience. Sorry for the venting but this bug happens to rear it's ugly head 95% of the time i am ingame. Is n4s rivals still getting updates/fixes? (please answer this question if you could) since this bug seriously needs dealt with. I purchased this game to get the great n4s experience not have it ruined by a bug that's essentially a show stopper and stops any enjoyment. Thanks for listening and hopefully some useful info and/or solutions can be forth coming. Regards Steven. [b]edit:[/b] Another side affect of this bug is that because it crashes (freezes) and you have to end the game via task manager you loose any of the objectives from the speed list that you completed and SP which really doesn't give much reason to play.

bought this game just this week and it happened to me like 5 times already. I also hope it will be fixed but when i look for possible solutions i see topics from 2013 so i guess i might just have to get used to it 🤔 Edit: Also got stuck here:

I still would like to have a closer look at your system through a dxdiag. Even if your system isn't the cause it would help us forward the specs of users experiencing issues.

I am unable to find any errors on your dxdiag. This means that I will have to keep an eye out for further similar reports.

this game is just getting worse day by day

I can not even play this game without some glitch or it crashing

I can guarantee it does something every time I play it now

the amount of points I have lost the challenges I have lost

all because of these stupid very annoying and frustrating glitches

I think its only fair ea get these glitches sorted out A,S,A,P or start issuing refunds to people who have used there own money to buy these games

its just a waste of time now loading this game

I am now starting to believe it was a waste of money

every time I play it I can guarantee this happens and it can happen anywhere on the circuit

its definitely getting worse every day
