Grind Assist resets to 100 every time the game starts, and even after setting it to 0, stays active.
It is no longer possible to ollie onto thin objects without being forced into a grind. This is, in my humble opinion, a high priority problem. It has removed a large amount of optional complexity and flexibility from the gameplay. I hope it can be hotfixed sooner rather than later.

I would like to stress this is not just the bug of the option resetting, the primary issue is that Grind Assist remains ON even at 0%. Sorry, I feel like I need to really make that clear.
This is a huge issue! Some game settings reset on launch as listed in Known Issues, but the separate issue here is that the Grind Assist setting appears to do nothing at all anymore-- it is stuck at a magnetizing assist, even when changed from 100.
Edit: Launched the game and did some testing to see if I could find a trigger. Upon launching and setting Grind Assist to 0, grinds are still magnetized. Shifting up to 5 then back to 0 seems to properly apply less (or 0) assist. But after completing (starting?) a mission, opening a box, or redeeming an item from the season pass, it starts magnetizing again, and the setting needs to be reset to 5->0 again to apply.
I'm not sure how consistently this happens or if the assist even works properly after setting 5->0, but maybe this can help devs look for causes of bug.
