Did this with the bugged hunt last season. Also submitted ticket for always starting at HW regardless of where my player house is. Still not fixed in new update. Now I have the new car icon and car sound issue in the new playlist, did submit a ticket as you urged but let’s just face it, please, and with all due respect to you MM, there is now a consistent track record of sheer incompetence with the smallest of coding tasks at PGG. Please let management know that this is getting worse and worse!
Oh don’t get me wrong I acknowledge all the contributing factors but with some players it goes beyond logic (well mine anyway).
Obviously I couldn’t give an exact explanation of this but in my book there’s a certain standard any average player should be able to perform at easily and I say that because that average player was me at 1 point, and my assists setup in FH5 is still incredibly casual but I can still put in good times + drive well with it.
I mean I’m no genius or even close, if me as a young boy can learn GT1 to the point that I can complete all the licence tests then I think personally it isn’t really asking much of anyone playing FH5 to have enough to get even just 100pts for the team in a much more user-friendly + accessible game.
There was a huge thread on it a while back and it was divisive to say the least, but unless someone is limited in the game through no fault of their own I won’t ever have any sympathy for the reason above.
But like you say PG railroads us all into the mode with the 10pt reward so getting really unlucky and getting 3-4 really poor drivers together in 1 team is always a possibility.

This playlist seems okay. The new RS7 oversteers quite a bit, took me a few tries to get that rivals done.

Pictures missing on the new cars.
Both the RS7 and the Bentley have their engine sound set way too low.
ONE FREAKING PLAYTHROUGH on PC should have told you that.
I know making videogames isn’t easy, but come on, this is just lazy.

Yes, exactly that. There are no excuses for it. This is NOT an edge case that slipped through testing.
Ahhhh trial was so much better than last week’s 8 mega race grind. We had a good team, used my trusty’08 M3 & we won easily in two.
Right…so that’s why the game has been out for over 10 months and they still haven’t finish fixing the convertible glitch, despite TWO devs promising to do so, or why they haven’t even addressed the many AI bugs and glitches that make racing against them so bloody annoying and even impossible to win sometimes? Honestly, I’ll start believing they care when we see some REAL progress towards fixing some of the most basic issues that we’ve had since launch day.

I really enjoyed the RS 7 on Bola Ocho. It managed it quite nicely for such a heavy car.
The e-tron on the other hand feels extremely sluggish - like a 3 tons boat.
This seasonal speed trap is torture. Right up there with that one awful winter one by that bridge in FH4. Anyone have a surefire car and tune to use on this? I’ve tried so many options and the best I’ve managed is 218mph with the Aventador SVJ with a tune…
Problem is there’s just not enough time to get back up to speed after the sharp curve, regardless of which direction you approach from.
1997 McLaren F1 GT worked for me but I don’t remember the tune I have and it’s not easy to look it up AFAICS.

Stock Regera worked for me.
You can always try going cross country.

I used the Rimac Concept Two tuned to the top of S2 class. Approach from the south and cut the last corner just a bit. I cleared the speed trap at 236.5 mph.

The Trial was lovely this week, really. I underutilize the BMW M1. Such a great car.

This one worked perfectly on the first try, thank you!

The Rimac Concept 2 also worked nicely for the Speed Trap. Only just.
I won’t be bothering with the ‘Collossus Championship’ this week. Too much hard work.Life’s too short.
It’s a great course. Worth trying if it’s a one off race.

Wow,this trial is about as easy as it gets,heaven help them if they ever stumble across fh4 
It’s no surprise though really,it seems no one quits anymore when they are dragging a team down - possibly because people have become accustomed to it being a free ride over the last few months

Could we get the devs to move “Recommended” over to the right, and put the selection on “current car” as default on the selection screen?
I just had to nope out of the Trial because I accidentally picked a car with a drag tune on it, which as you might imagine, is pretty undrivable on a circuit.

And to make matters worse, they made the cute little pink outline which is supposed to highlight the selected car much thinner and more faint than FH4, so I’ve accidentally selected the wrong car more than once. It’s crazy how it takes 3 clicks to get out of photo mode, and they double-check with you that you’re absolutely sure you want a car delivered when you select a car in free roam, but make the wrong click for a race or an auction just once and your screwed.
