OK, here's a new one:

I had a freeze while in the PS3 chat room after a race online while the game was in the background loading the menus.

Ejecting the disc was not enough. I had to keep the power button pressed to reboot.
 
I wanted to play but I was back at the start of the game with the white Skyline at Suzuka. I quit and rebooted. It was all "normal" again but one little detail: I had a 78% completion rate but tonight I went back to 52%, lost all the cars I acquired and won in between but still have all my trophies. I know it happened to at least another user over the net. It's very frustrating. I was really enjoying the game!

patch 1.02

Menu navigation lag. Happens in all menus, tried deleting all install, game saves, turning off autolog, re-install...nothing fixes. Very annoying. the races work fine, but tuning and navigating are extremely laggy.

Define "extremely laggy". By a factor of what fraction of a second are you experiencing lag in the menu?

As for me, I spent a little over a week making progress in the game, and only had one freeze over the course of that time period (black screen with 'loading bar' at the bottom). Today, though, after making my first custom livery, the same freeze mentioned happened to me twice in one day. Maybe the custom livery thing is a little too much for the system to handle?

By extremely laggy I mean, I press a R2 or 'X' button, wait half a second for any indication a selection was made. If I am navigating horizontally across the main menu set, there are half second or more delays before the menu catches up. You can see the fog in the background cease animating, nothing happens, then the menu jumps over to where I selected and the background catches up. Very rarely freezes in game, but navigating around is a chore.
 
Not receiving cash bonuses?

After each level, you're supposed to get a cash bonus right? I was just checking, and I'm not receiving any, while the game says I do. I had 14k in the bank, and got to level 8, which was supposed to get me 80k cash bonus. But I am still at 14k. When I check my profile it says my total earnings are around 110k. If I check the value of my cars and add my amount of cash, it adds up.

Anybody else have this? I thought I had missed some bonuses because of backing out of a multi-stage event, so I started career all over again, but it appears to be a bug of some sorts?

EDIT: Just checked some more threads, it does appear to be a bug, with no obvious solution. Meh.

EDIT2: Now at L14: total cash earned: 250k. :rolleyes: Restoring my old profile at L17: 1200k. ;)

PS3 120 GB Slim / DFGT
Patch 1.02

Every time I start the Nurburgring challenge in Modern A, I can't even get halfway through the first race without the game completely freezing up on me. Have tried about 10 times now and I just can't....
 
Just hit a new bug.

I don't know if it can be reproduced but changing from Suzuka GP (GT1 cars) to Road America, my options changed gears to auto. obviously, I went underneath a friend's SV-R in the first turn.
 
PS3 Fat
DFGT
1.02

the game freezes in SPA, the Ring and Mount Panorama with fast cars (well over 1500 PI) the more the PI the easier it is for the game to freeze
 
A bug I ve been experiencing a lot lately is that the breaking lights of opponent cars dont work in the first corner of a race. They are clearly stopping but the breaking lights dont flash. Makes it kinda hard (even extrasuperduperbonus-harder that the extremelysuperduperhard way it already is) to survive the first corner, especially at night. All of a sudden you have 10 cars in your face. :indiff:
 
And since I now start to use works or very fast cars more often - cant complete a lap at the Nordschleife or one of the Nordschleife parts with any works converted car, the McLaren F1 One Maker Championship freezes between races and with every restart in Donington... Also freezes at Mount Panorama.

Seriously, has this game even been quality tested?!? 👎👎👎 :crazy:
 
Anybody ever have your car float after being hit in an online race on the PS3? Had it happen to me a few minutes ago. Took a video of it with my cellphone(very dark and poor quality). The speedo said I was going anywhere from 290-315mph. Video below.
 
Silverstone GT3 at night:

1st attemped car revved to the max without me touching the throttle and it didnt stop. Couldnt do anything, no braking, no steering, nothing - car didnt move though when the race started, opponents as well. Wasnt a freeze, could restart it.

2nd attempt my car was placed 90° to the right in the grid.

3rd attempt it was completely backwards.

4th attempt ... and we're good tooooo goooooooo! :D
 
Lost cars sound, mirrors and display options

Starting a race silverstone day and night, finished the first race, then when the second loaded, i noticed that the mirrors instead of reflecting, were just a dull grey colour, there was no sound comming from my car, and things like the driving line (yes i was using it :( ) dissapeared.

I restarted the event and the same thing happened, i had to quit the game and reload it to fix the issue
 
I wanted to play but I was back at the start of the game with the white Skyline at Suzuka. I quit and rebooted. It was all "normal" again but one little detail: I had a 78% completion rate but tonight I went back to 52%, lost all the cars I acquired and won in between but still have all my trophies.

This. If i start the game then im on level 19 43% complete but i have to do the time trial and 1st race. Then i cant enter any events other than Modern D as it seems to think im level 1. I can only do legend races as they are level locked. Still have all my cars and badges though.
 
The game froze 4 times in about 15 minutes, always during the Gumpert vs Bugatti Challenge. I almost quit playing this game for good, I was so mad ! I then decided to do a race invloving slower cars in order to come back to this one later on... and it worked ! I was then able to do it without a freeze, in my fifth attempt! To all of my Autolog friends, my time will be hard to beat, with all of this unexpected practice I had with this car (the Gumpert) on this track :)
 
Finally experienced my first freeze recently. I was using the Speedhunters Mercedes SLS AMG at Dakota Tri-Oval in the American Time Attack Event. Looked back for a few seconds, then the game froze.

PS3 version here.

PS3 version here.

Same happened to me with a 1800PI GTR VSpec.

So it seems that there is a certain list of tracks that are 'incompatible' with the PS3 version of the game whenever driving faster cars. It is as follows:

1. Nordschleife
2. Mount Panorama
3. Dakota Tri-oval
4. Spa Francorchamps
5. Monza (legendary DLC)

Please inform me of other locations if there are any.
 
Anyone know of a work-a-round for the visual editor where the paint and graphics applied to one car are inherited by others? Seems to be some type of link between "some" of the cars.
In my case, what I apply (paint, graphics) to my Legends Cortina gets applied to my Alfa (if I try to edit). Move a graphic on the Cortina, moves it on the Alfa.

Yep if you want to have a custom livery on both... sell the Alfa... do the cortina... buy the alfa back and do the alfa... thats the only work around I know... new cars dont have custom liverys.

That's the work-a-round I was looking for... will give it a try. Thanks Tribolik!
