Patch 2.0 introduced more progression, sponsor and interface bugs. Sponsor AVAX has become unselectable (red padlock) even though I have purchased all mechanic upgrades and it was unlocked before patch. That makes one of the achievements impossible to complete. Worse than that, event "Fully Upgraded Heritage Super Tourers" is permanently locked (red padlock) despite me unlocking and purchasing Stage 2 upgrades for both Sierra Cosworth and Skyline GTR. These are very annoying bugs and discourage me from progressing through the career as I can't access all the content anyway.

So it turns out that race became available after unlocking Stage 3 of car upgrades. I have the same situation with event "Fully Upgraded Lightweights". Before patch 2.0 it was working correctly just like race requirement said - Stage 2 was all you needed. This is ridiculous, no way I'm grinding milage for each car just to unlock an event, it was already too much to grind out stage 2. Please fix this.

So it has been two weeks of no replies, no updates and no fixes for these progression breaking issues. Career mode is basically unplayable at the moment as you can't finish it. Just by looking at these forums you can see I'm one of many people affected by it. We paid for this game and the least we can expect is for all its modes to be playable. I think we are owed a refund or immediate fix for these issues. I'm so frustrated by it, GRID Legends was one of my most awaited games of the year, I was a loyal fan of Codemasters for years. To get screwed by them now is very disappointing and frustrating. A week ago I asked about these issues during Codemasters Community livestream and they promisted to "look into these issues". Yeah, see how that turned out.

It gets even worse, this bug has just gone from a nuisance to game breaking. You actually can't progress to the final Gauntlet of the Career mode without completing Avax sponsor goals! You can't unlock Renault R26 in your garage without completing Avax race, therefore you can't upgrade R26, therefore you can't finish last race of Open Wheel Racing in Pro category, therefore you can't unlock The Gauntlet. This is a major problem Codemasters, please fix these progression breaking bugs. The way it is now, we can't finish a career. Please give us some feedback on this.

Since nobody listens here,I'm heading to the steam forums to make sure nobody else buys without knowing how broken this game really is and how ea is showing total lack of respect to customers(no big surprise).You mark my words,next patch will be DLC.

i have the problem that i can't complete Distort Sponsor Contract cause the challange "beat rick scott in carreer open wheel races" can't be completed Avax sponsor locked even completed challanges are shown in the dashboard with 0/3 even if they are completed gauntlet can't be unlocked cause you can only complete 8 /10 on pro with avax being locked,,, grid challanges even if you complete them are shown with gold but some of them are reset and shown as "unfinished" with the % bar so yeah i'm completely stuck now... hope they will fix it somehow

There wasn't any in-game update since about 3 weeks so there's no new information in this topic. Everyone still have the same problem, i tried to finish races in upgraded GT1 cars many times from 3 weeks but it still won't pop.

Ive had a bunch of sponsers completed and they show not completed now. I also have the main sponsers window 3/3 items completed but only 2 boxes of 3 checked in the description of what we need to complete part. Because of it, it wont let me open a car I need to go to the next event. I cant select that sponser to try to fix it, so it means I cant open any more events tied to it. Pretty lame, it makes the game useless. I did all the truck sponser events and elecrric car sponser and they show as if I never did them at all. Awesome game, awful recording of events.. it blocks us from gameplay that we paid for. This started happening to me before any updates. The last update just made it worse. Also, for anyone that wants to know, Steam driving games/sims are buggy when it comes to wheels, etc. I always try to buy games elsewhere..Its a story.. but trust me, Steams Customer Service is the worst
