Patch V2

[RainKing]

Well, in theory the patch fixes important stuff, but invitations for private games don't work, so it was all for nothing.

Now we have to wait until patch 3?

I'm sorry to say this game is a joke. Two months after its release, the game is still not finished and we have to be thankful for their patches? Come on..

My problem has been solved...or confirmed and is being addressed anyway, PSN ID less than 10 characters causes connection problems...classic LOL if anyone else is having this issue ferraripro has posted an explination over on the "V2 conection issues" link looks like a fix late next week, My burning torch has been extinguished and I'll be in the corner muttering to myself if anyone wants me LOL

Hi,

Some people are experiencing connections issues after installing the new patch. We believe that this is due to the PSN ID being below a certain amount of characters i.e. too short.

As a work around you can create a new PSN ID with at least 10 characters in the name. We have already fixed the bug and will try to deploy a new patch late next week.

Unfortunately there is no way to Beta test a PS3 game and this issue, despite 3 weeks of testing managed to get through.

Sorry for this...

Well, so now it's patched and broken

When I heard the talk of the problems with the patch, I didn't really want to believe that... However, things have gone too far at System 3 when they shove a patch out the door where graphics goes from acceptable to unacceptable and online goes from workable to not working.

The graphics now make the turns in the distance appear as a jumble of creeping pixels - in a sim like this graphics quality is crucial for the gameplay; the whole thing is about the visual and auditory feedback, after all. I can't join online anymore, and I can only sit here an speculate why nobody joins the session I've created.

So, System 3, you really need to get your act together. Perhaps it would be best if patch V3 is just a rollback to pre V2... Anyway, I think everybody wants the acceptable graphics back, just fix the AI, FFB and minor features as requested by the community.

For now I'm tempted to delete patch V2 since it's basically a show stopper (is it even possible to get pack to pre V2?)

Just tried to downgrade. Deleted the "game data". On starting the now unpatched game, I get the message "The data is corrupted". Presumably that is refering to my game save data. Thus I had to quit the game and download patch V2 again.

When starting the gane again, my game save is gone. No need to use the "Reset profile" option here This is rapidly turning from potential-favourite-game to I-want-my-money-back, but System 3 can still redeem themselves with a good patch.

Now I wonder, is it possible to obtain the previous patch and apply just that -I'm willing to "sacrifice" the online play since that doesn't work anyway...

I think one of the isses here is that sstem 3 are being TOO acomodating. We want this that and the other......and when we get it we then want another dozen things, it's an endless list guys! System 3 should have simply prioritised the major issues! The biggest of which is the online aspect of the game. They could have spent far less time and got the basic bugs iorned out then listened to the endless lists of opinions on AI and gear selectors and then taken a shot at them.......where we stand now is a whole raft of improvements and additions but the basics are still not right as there time has been eaten up with all the other less important stuff. I'm loathed to start for a third time with another PSN ID only to then go back to my original ID a week later to collect some more trophys. I have to congratulate system 3 and ferrari pro for keeping us all informed and for listening to the comunity and making so many improvements.......BUT it's starting to wear a little thin now, 2 months in and 2 patches with a 3rd on the way and I now can't join online games because my PSN account name is "too short"......ie less than 10 characters, That really is pushing my loyalty to the game guys and as excusess go it's original if nothing else LOL

Yeah I am about to say your are right. They cant please everyone, and some of the sugestions made by people have been a litle to far I think, not that I wouldent like them, but stuff like pitstops, tire wear, fuel useage and the like is a litle to much to get with a Patch.

The online is still broken, hopefully they will fix it so you guys with short names can play online, and hopefully they will fix the leaderboards, as they are still a complete mess.

And a final wish I think i share with many other please make and option to have the original AI from the Launch version of the game. The AI brake checking you ramming into you on purpose thats just not fun, kinda spoils it for me.

Hi Ferraripro,


With the patch V2 I found a problem in consultation with the online rankings.
Auto 575 GTG, Monza track, the game freezes (I have to turn off the PS3) if I try to see the ranking.

-Please give possibility to change cars to use in lobby. Otherwise we have to make a new lobby for each car you use.
- Configuration menu G25 with custom setup.

Thank you

Hi,

The next patch, V3 will simply fix the issues with patch V2. It will correct the online PSN name issue, along with restoring the original look in 1080. We have also fixed the 575 leaderboard problem.

ferraripro, When can we in NA expect patch 2 or 3? I can't play online and I suspect that's because every game that I have tried to join was hosted by someone with patch2.
