Not sure if anyone has found or noticed this yet… but in Nice on Circuit Grandiose rivals, S1 Class… I set (what shows on my system) as the #1 timed player with a 00:51.992 in a Ferrari 360 CS as my rival to see how his stock 854 level Ferrari could be that fast. I followed this car around the track and noticed that the drivatar disappeared 51.992 seconds into the race about 1/2 way through the course. Not sure if this is in other rivals events or classes. Just thought I’d pass along what I found.
This has happened to one of my own times and noticed it when I raced my own ghost. Sometimes while racing a rivals challenge, you will get a server error and a message saying your time will no longer be recorded, after a short while another message will come up saying the issue has been resolved and ghost and time recording can commence, the time you are offline is not recorded hence why the ghost vanishes.
Yeah, the above examples appear to be server-related glitches. There is also another glitch where a player will complete a rivals event in an upgraded car above its native class (e.g. an S1 Toyota Supra) but the time is saved to the leaderboard of whatever class the car was originally in stock form. #1 times in Castelleto/High Speed Circuit B class or Sisteron/Citadelle Circuit D class are examples of this. I’ve emailed Turn 10 about this issue and they did wipe some glitched times from certain leaderboards about a month ago but it appears that it has not been fully resolved yet.
This seems to be a server related glitch with the ghost. It happens a lot of you use rewind. I’ve noticed sometimes the ghost may be present and rewinding makes it disappear. I’ve also noticed there to be no ghost, and rewinding makes the ghost appear once the rewind is finished. I know it makes it hard to follow your rivals ghost, but I wouldn’t worry yourself with it too much.
Where would the Circuit Grandiose be? it seems familiar.
As for the Ghost disappearing i would probably have to agree with the rest of the group. I ran into a problem where i had been doing a race and it didn’t record my ghost at all after the first 2 seconds. Just went poof an i was left wondering what happened.
