Patch coming soon
By: supanash Date: November 2, 2011, 2:35 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
There has been an announcement about the upcoming patch. There's
a long list of fixes and improvements. So long that it makes me
wonder what kind of testing they did on the game. You can see
the full list on the CM forum, but some highlights for me are:
[list]
[li]A connectivity rating display has now been implemented for
each player in an online session lobby. This appears as coloured
bars (red, amber, green) to indicate the expected online
performance of the player in the game session.[/li]
[li]Fixed 11/11 car setup bug[/li]
[li]Fixed issue where AI cars would be too fast in the wet.[/li]
[li]The AI has been tuned on several circuits to provide
smoother and faster driving[/li]
[li]Vote to Skip in Qualifying now requires 100% vote[/li]
[li]PS3 – Improved frame rate & performance[/li]
[/list]
There's also a lot of fixes for CO-OP mode, if any of you are
playing that.
They are planning to wipe the Time Trial leaderboard, which
makes sense, since the times should be a lot slower without the
setup bug.
If I was in charge at CM, I'd release the patch on 11/11/11 :D

Further to that connectivity deal, I heard that they are going
to be changing around some of the voice settings. This will be
interesting, I hope they don't go too far as to make the
connectivity with the headsets and online impossible to hear
each other.

Full details...........

each player in an online session lobby. This appears as coloured
bars (red, amber, green) to indicate the expected online
performance of the player in the game session.
o More network bandwidth is now reserved for game-critical
systems in online sessions. This may result in low-bandwidth
users having their voice chat restricted to fewer players, but
should result in a smoother online experience.

compound three times in a row & the final set are worn.

invite the other player when playing long race weekends.

level when resuming a Coop game.
o Fixed an issue with tyre wear in Practice/Qualifying not being
carried over to Race.
o Fixed an issue with the penalties accrued in
Practice/Qualifying not being applied to the Race.
o Fixed an issue with the Race Results where lapped AI are
causing player to drop positions.
 Online:
o Vote to Skip in Qualifying now requires 100% vote.
o Various Penalty system improvements have been made.
o Quick Race countdown timer is now set to 60 Seconds and no
longer resets when a player joins the session.
 Graphics & Performance:

made to increase frame rate and reduce stuttering.

 PC-specific:

car grip.
 Other:

skipped over when progressing to the next session during a Long
Race Weekend.

2011 race.
o Fixed an issue where in career where the "on the bounce"
achievement was awarded after 11 race wins instead of 9.
o Fixed an issue where all users would be awarded the fastest
lap XP and stat during some online races.
o Fixed an issue where driver's hands & head popped in a few
frames late when switching cameras.
We have yet to verify several other fixes at the moment, and we
are still working hard on fixing a few more issues before we
move into Step 3 next week. We will keep you informed on the
specifics over the course of the next week or so.
As a final note, we are also working with Sony and Microsoft to
wipe the Time Trial leader boards to ensure that all future Time
Trial data is correct and free from inaccuracies following the
release of patch 2.
Thanks again for your patience whilst we finalise work on the
patch.
