#PS5 - Mid session Save Broken
26 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Don't suppose you have any footage of this do you please?
-Save problems have not been solved: If I save on the track after loading the game (or championship) my car is stopped on the track. If I saved to the pits, after loading the game, the AIs went off the track (lots of yellow flags). These saving issues need to be resolved as it is impossible to do an endurance race or a championship. Unable to save mid race.
File size too big again but can easy reproduce in game. Run a 10 min quick race. Save after 30 second of start and then reload save game. You'll notice that player car is stopped on track. Ai cars go off or even if they dont the whole field does a pitstop on first lap
Problem is still there, but only effecting one or two cars (not whole field in pit). Had same save game starting up three times and second time there was no spin of a car ahead of me (with two cars in between).
It’s still broken, not like before but when back on track after resume, occasionally, a car or two spins with no reason and as consequence are sent to pit. Then remains in pit forever. Sometimes car is ok and keep racing. Had zero instances for few Save/resume on a custom open season, during different race moments. Had issues three times in a row on the same season.
Looks like the car placement is wrong and that’s trigger the spin.
I should have two photos, the first shows the situation at save instant. When I resumed the save a car was placed back away from its original position, resulting in a collision with an oncoming car. I’ll try to post the pics or try to reproduce another event like that one.
Sadly I’m away from home for a while, no access to console and stuff. And last time I recorded pics and short video on the console. Really sorry but I’m out for at least 10 days…. 😓
No worries. I'll send it back to QA in hopes they can replicate it
But in two instances it was like I wrote: I saved during a turn at Watkins Glen, let’s say around 5-6 cars in the pack. I was inside the turn, on my right and a little ahead of me a Porsche and way ahead of me, inside the turn (left wheels on the curb) a Lambo…
When resumed, immediately, the Lambo went spinning . I was able to look at the replay and the Lambo was placed way back, the front left of the Porsche touching the back right of the lambo…. And then the spinning … a first look you see the car spinning but the replay shows a wrong placement of the Lambo .
So my guess is that can be replicated, it happened twice in a row . Can’t say if that happens in a situation “away” from your actual position , in another group …. But I’ve checked for cars in pit or else and doesn’t looks like. Let’s say that out of ten attempts it will be most likely something wrong happens 3-4 times.
Really sorry I can’t provide visual help, I had many things to attend in the weekend and then the business trip away.
No worries man, trying to help as much as possible to …help the team . Feedback is key.
Still not ok after the last patch. Tried short ago, saving several times during a custom championship race. Easy to reproduce: stay behind a car and activate the menu, save, quit session. Go to game main screen. Select championship, continue, and as soon you’re in the game you will likely see the car in front of you spinning, on a different level. If there is a bunch of cars most likely an accident will occur.
Plus, every single time I resume I have a “slow car ahead” message followed by a “yellow flag” radio message.
Devs are looking into this
Thanks mate! 🎉
I can confirm they've successfully recreated this. They're working on a fix
Wow, amazing! Thanks for the update. Personally I would not insist on asking quick fixes because I understand the amount of work involved …
But hey, weekend’s almost here , go to the seaside and relax! 🍾
Idk if it was patched but the bug is still there. It was all good but since 3 days ago it happened to me at every single time I tried to load a session. Tried on different sessions but the outcome is the same, when I load the session the car goes under the map and then the game sends me to the pits...race ruined :/
