Fixing this absolutely crazy flickering bug introduced in Update 5 isn’t worth it? Right? No? Yes? Maybe?

Who’s prioritizing what has to be fixed or ignored at Turn10? Because it’s fairly obvious that the number of players affected by a bug or the number of votes for an particular issue doesn’t mean anything.

Oh yes!!!

Not that I’m excusing the poor software.

But if you are having flickering, your gauges don’t load. The game feels like it’s stuttering. Anything weird like that.

Pause then unpause. Will usually fix the problem.

@T10ManteoMax ,could you please provide a roadmap or ask turn10 about it?
Thank you.

Any news about the save replay feature during multiplayer? Still bugged from day 1 and it’s about time something will be done by T10

997.3 MB on Win11/Xbox Store

82,8 MB Steam

This is working fine since last update

I still got the “infinite” screen most time. Some almost all my clanmate. Still quite buggy imho.

And 30 fps after one race?

I got this fun effect

More evidence that bug fixes can and should be decoupled from content updates and shoud be rolling out each week.

It’s like the game engine took acid or something totally trippin. :smiley:

This cost money & man power. 2 things that Turn10 is lacking right now (being part of MS doesn’t give them a blank check unfortunately for them… Just like 343i which took a similar turn…). Support goes where the players/money is… And Forza Motorsports is long gone into the shadow realm.

I wouldn’t have cared if it was even just a handful each week, as long as it was actually being done. The reason the game is dead is precisely because they seemingly don’t want to put in the effort to actually fix it promptly. If they had been, I doubt as many players would have gone. They created this situation by dragging their feet so much.

When you drag your feet, and the few fixes you do release don’t actually work half the time, of course people are going to get frustrated and leave.

*It may well be due to microsoft pulling manpower and resources right after release, but unfortunately it’s down to T10 to be shouting back at them that they need the resources to fix this mess. Microsoft heads certainly aren’t going to listen to me or any other player. One way or another this game will be dead without someone in charge kicking up a fuss, though it could be way too late I guess.

Well this seems to have finally truly broken the game for me. After the update things were still working fine.

Hotfix comes along and now my 7900 XTX is at 100% utilization at the beginning of races with a frame rate in the high teens to mid 20s and shortly after a race starts it crashes to desktop. Pretty much every time.

Awesome.
