Hey drivers, Thank you for your reports. We have already raised this issue to the Game Team and it is currently being investigated. We'll keep you updated as soon as we have more info. -Groguet

Hi Groguet and Team,I really want to support this game as it is a lot of fun and as a SW Developer I know things get complicated as soon as persistent user data is involved.I also understand that these developers deserve their holidays and I'm sure that this plays a role in the setting of this date.Nonetheless I have to say I'm disappointed and many will be because the bug mostly affects people that already played a lot of career mode!! So waiting over the holidays, when many of us would have time to play the heck out of it, is sad for us even though understandable. Obviously I understand from your message there is no quickfix that would allow us to just reset any compromised benefactor goals to some known dummy goal that works even if we could never reach it based on our state of our season (obviously this would have to be opt in as not everybody likes failing goals, I don't care though). That would be a good way to circumvent temporarily but alas not possible without further corrupting what's wrong. Everything so far is bad and you can definitely be blamed for not testing the introduction of a new rally into career but it's not as frustrating as my last point quoting from your message:"If a player has experienced this crash, there is a chance that their Career Mode progress has been lost with no ability to recover."So we could wait for continuing our career for one month and in the end we could have started over all along?I'm sorry, but that's just saying: You better start your career over. It's not SNAFU, it's a meltdown! I don't know what I will do now, probably first play the hell out of clubs as much as I can but I might not be willing to wait one month just for finding out if my case is fixable and bite into the very sour apple of starting my career over. In many areas as well as in my area of work losing your save files/persistent data is unforgivable. And quite honestly it is also pretty much unforgivable in games for the career mode, the one thing that is supposed to be persistent.It's not easy but if that's the best that's not good enough for me to give this a positive review unfortunately. If you can break your game so bad with a planned introduction of a rally that the main game mode is broken for over a month, something is wrong.One last thing for everyone though: It's just a game and I definitely don't envy Groguet or anyone having to deal with the community reaction. I think my critique is mostly civil and I want to appeal to everyone to weigh your words before submitting. Also I wish everyone at Codemasters and EA as well as all WRC players happy and joy filled holidays!

Career Mode - WRC2 - Season 1 - Last event of season pending (Forum8 Japan), last few weeks of that season left for me is all I can remember

This happened immediately after installing the latest update for the game on Steam, Windows PC. Time Trial mode worked absolutely fine, but at the time of posting this report, EA WRC servers are momentarily down. I don't know if Career Mode relies on that connection at all even if it's single player but I'm noting it here just in case. Many people have noticed this bug already so I'm expecting plenty of these reports. Hope you get it sorted out soon!

Exact issue with me.

Second season. Would love to check the week/event, but, oh, that's right...

EA really shows it has an excellent QA culture and commitment, doesn't it?
