Aye!

It would be an excellent game if it worked like it was supposed to.

IT DOESN'T

I applied for a refund a few days ago, they said it could take up to three weeks to make a decision and I would be notified via email. :confused:

Got on right away this afternoon, into a time trial only for the server to kick me out after 1 lap :rolleyes:

I thought "Once you were in, you were in" ?

Anyway, I love how when at high speed, any little bump/hump in the road will destabilize the car...

Here I was at Skjolden going over the bridge in the BAC Mono at 115mph...

It does not look much but I did "get air" ...just over a second later...

God damn friggin' server issues, just done an event and gained 3 stars, just before the race finishes, BOOM!!! disconnected from the server. Evolution really, REALLY need to sort this soon, it's starting to test my patience. :mad:

Me too. Bit worse, It was a tour event where I got 6/9 stars. Annoyed so turned it off.

On the plus side, my method of connecting seems to work consistently. Just load an old DC game invite and open it and wait a few mins and you get connected.

Getting connected is not the issue for me, it's more to do with getting booted off and re-connecting. We were told that we will have issues getting on but once we are on, we'll stay there.

Oh, I agree fully! But still before I was sitting like a lemon for an hour. Now I open a game invite and connect in a couple of mins.

I think the staying on once you are on changed with one of the patches. It was initially like that. Could do with an update from Evolution before the weekend.

Ah right, I must have missed that, thanks.

Just loaded it up for the first time today, online is working and I just had a race with no issues other than sore losers ramming cos your too fast

neoglow · 17 Oct 2014 at 18:29

So it is safe to say online is working now?

Hopefully give it a go over the weekend.

Still hit and miss, I can get on fine but staying on is another thing...

2 Races, disconnected while synching and now can't connect to any :rolleyes:

Edit, Working again now

Adrenaline sucks......always loose first place close to the line

Out of interest, I wonder if those having a hard time connecting are with the same isp? Or am I thinking about this too much?

I only wondered because some say they can connect easily whereas I can't.

Feel free to abuse me if I'm talking poop

Earlier during the day I could connect easily but I kept getting DC after each race, whilst in lobby once while in a race. I tired few hours ago not luck connecting at all I'm on sky btw I think its just the servers/game not the ISP.

sharpygsxr · 17 Oct 2014 at 19:14

Im on Sky also if its worth anything, only time i seem able to connect is early in the day and then it will more than likely kick me after a few mins, ive all but given up on it if im honest

Dredd · 17 Oct 2014 at 19:17

i've just started the game and i'm connected within 30sec (single Event) and stayed connected so far doing online races

EDIT: Now discounted, lasted about 10min

byeo · 17 Oct 2014 at 19:25

Sky fibre here, I manage to stay connected for about 5/10 mins then I get booted off. One big f'n joke this game.

Van Diemen · 17 Oct 2014 at 19:30

Virgin 152mbps @ home
Dedicated 1000mbps @ work

same old crap.

got disconnected over a dozen times in the last hour or so & @ work today I had connection for less than 5 mins

rp2000 · 17 Oct 2014 at 19:32

Telefonica FTTH in Spain. I don't see a pattern, except a lack of updates by Sony & Evolution studios

Van Diemen · 17 Oct 2014 at 19:39

Not been able to get back online over last half hour or so.

I'm really starting to feel a little not to bothered about this game now. The initial wow factor of the game is wearing off with all the BS with the servers.

Gonna finish playing The Last Of Us & then my PS4 will go back to gathering dust again
