Haven’t really played in the last few weeks/couple months, had to buy a new SSD cause my old one failed, and since it was bigger I had enough room to install FM7 on it. I had hoped that maybe that would cure some of my CTD issues, like maybe it just couldn’t fetch the data it needed quickly enough or something. Nope, still every time I stop playing FM7 it’s cause it crashed and I don’t feel like spending another 5-10 minutes loading the game back up and waiting for another multiplayer race to begin.
It’s amazes me how little Turn 10 cares for this game. Like, they literally don’t do anything else, they just make one game and yet they seem to prefer it not be as good as it could be. Crashes aside (which is inexcusable now that we’re what, 9 months since it launched?), the garage and lack of multiplayer lobby menu show an active disregard for modern conveniences. The fact that no one will come forward and say “yeah, we screwed up, but it would cost too much to fix it” and instead we’re given locked threads and “working as intended”.
At least I learned a valuable lesson to never again make a purchase through the MS store and instead purchase through Amazon who has a much better return policy.
