Subject: Boost Issue in WRC 1 Cars During Time Trial
Hello EA WRC SPORTS Team,
I've encountered a persistent issue with the boost system in WRC 1 cars during Time Trial sessions. The boost seems to function properly only at the start line with the marshalls, using about half of it right there and then it suddenly stops. For the rest of the stage, where I should have gotten around 3-5 more boosts, the system malfunctions and the boost abruptly ends after using just 1%. Following this, two scenarios typically occur:
The boost regenerates fully, but when I press the throttle—regardless of whether I set it to Cautious, Balanced, or Aggressive—the boost does not work. Only about 1% is used before it suddenly stops. I've tried varying the pedal pressure to 50%, 75%, and 100%, but it always stops abruptly after regeneration. I am convinced it should not behave this way.
The boost regenerates fully but does not turn green and stays white. After this point, no matter how many times I brake, the boost does not activate. If it does turn green, it only does so for a brief moment—about 1 millisecond or 1 second—then stops abruptly ( see screenshot attached ).
Due to this issue, I have lost significant time in Time Trial, possibly around 1-3 seconds. I am attaching a photo to illustrate this problem further.
Could you please look into this issue and provide some clarification or a fix? It would be great to understand if there's a specific mechanic I'm missing or if this is indeed an issue that needs addressing.
Why does the boost abruptly stop at the starting line and during the Time Trial Stage ? Must I press the throttle pedal twice ?
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best regards
Subject: Rally Driver Name Change Issue Across All Car Classes
Hi,
I've recently driven cars across all classes, and I noticed that only some cars update the default names of real rally drivers to my selected driver and copilot names.
Shouldn't all cars, regardless of class, automatically replace the real driver names with my chosen ones?
This inconsistency is a bit confusing. Can you clarify if this is intentional or if it's something that needs fixing?
Thanks!
Subject: Feedback on Multiplayer Competition Score Saving and Game Stability
Hello EA WRC Team,
I wanted to provide some feedback regarding multiplayer competitions based on my experience. I was able to play from July to October, but after the October update, I was unable to play the game until now, in December.
When participating in multiplayer competitions, I noticed that if I restart a stage, my score does not save. This is a major issue, especially compared to F1 Esports, where virtual drivers can restart scenarios as many times as they want, and their best score is still saved to the leaderboard.
In WRC, this does not happen consistently. If I complete a stage perfectly, the score saves. However, if I make a mistake and restart the stage to achieve a better score, the improved result is often not recorded on the leaderboard. In order to get the score saved on the leaderboard, I have to quit the started stage, go back to the main menu, and re-enter the multiplayer competition. If I then drive with no mistakes, my new score is saved. However, if I make a mistake again, I have to repeat the same procedure—exiting the stage, returning to the main menu, re-entering the competition, and attempting the stage again without mistakes. This is frustrating, as players should be able to restart the stage and improve their performance without needing to exit and re-enter the competition from the menu.
Additionally, I’ve encountered game stability issues when restarting stages:
I strongly suggest fixing these issues before WRC Esports is implemented. This will ensure a smoother and more competitive experience for all players.
Thank you for your time, and I hope these concerns can be addressed soon.
Best regards
