Lol, suspicions were right.

Gets past the initial loading screen every time with the mechanical HDD. It's almost as if the content loads before the actual loading screen comes up when its off the SSD, therefore the game misses the trigger to continue onto the main menu.

It's not a crash to desktop, it's just that the loading screen gets stuck into an infinite loop and never actually progresses past it.

I'll get a video recorded in a bit to show what I mean, but if im right then this could become a common problem with fast SSD's!

Ive had this a couple of times (stuck on loading screen in a loop)

Using Velociraptor 150gb drive
 
anyone suggest some settings to play about with to make my 360 pad less twitchy?


its like bambi on ice trying to drive the bleeding thing :(

My HDD is a 7200rpm, so miles slower than the SSD and slower still than your Velociraptor... Obviously Codemasters didn't try the game on anything except 5400rpm HDDs i guess.
 
hmmm I am getting 55-60 fps and you have better specs then me.

Heavy rain it can dip to 48-55

So something is not quite right on that rig. Which may also explain the pad. I would expect you to hit 60+?

Hmmm. I'm unconvinced after a quick 10% weekend at Spa.

During Qualifying I back off on the main straight after Eau Rouge to get some space. Other cars all queue up behind me in formation. Nobody will pass and I get a 10 place penalty then a DQ from qualifying.

During the race, I get told my DRS is available, but it only makes itself known for about half a lap, one lap AFTER the announcement. Then it does AWOL for the rest of the race.

Not impressed if obvious bugs like these still lurk in the code.

What do you mean AWOL? you have to be within 1 second of the car infront to use DRS at a certaina actavaion zone. The eginer only says Kers is available on the lap that its activated not that you can use it.
 
Yeah I got told off for blocking, but I was on the line. It feels a bit like an arcade game to me. To be honest the only game I really like is forza 3 on the 360. Been trying to find a decent racing sim for PC for ages.

No don't think so, I think this just makes people like yourself more suspicious in terms of whether the games are actually scripted or not. I think that is why they put in the race director though so you can see lap by lap as to where AI drivers finish, any potential accidents pitstops drive throughs etc etc.

I could care less to be honest, because the physics model is great fun.. I'm more about racing other people than AI. But I could see the Co-op championship being very fun indeed.

In Co-Op you can spectate the AI

Just noticed this post and asked our QA guys to check it out but they were unable to reproduce the error. If you see my post and have the time can you supply the below bits of information so we can look into it further.

Detailed description of bug (What you were doing when the bug occurred, what the bug is, anything else you can remember!) –

• Session info (race lengths, long / short race weekends, assists used, etc.)
• Which sim options are enabled (specifically tyres and damage)
• Were you the host?
• The track on which this issue occurs
• The session on which this occurs (P / Q / R, etc.)
• Anything else you guys might have done in this or the previous session...
Click to expand...

Ok so we started a new Co-op championship with Sauber,

For settings we forced everything off and on pro difficulty
we both hosted and both had the bug
It was the very first P session of Australia {if you skip the session it does it again )


Hope that helps

Got vysnc on? if you're hitting 40 or below FPS vysnc will cap your FPS to 30. Yes GPU usage is low, poorly optimized this on PC.

Thikn he meant controls, not fps. As in moving left/right on pad is set to high sensitivity or something. Its same with my pads

Turn up the steering deadzone and turn down the steering linearity. Not guaranteed to work but did it for me on dirt 2
