Ongoing Issues Moving to Known Issues

,

Serious question. This is something that’s been bugging me for a long while now and I’d just like to know if there’s anything I need to do about it or if it’s even worth it.

I and at least 55 other voters have an issue which currently sits in the “Report New Issues” area of the forums. I’m sure a lot of regulars have seen me link to it on many occasions. It’s been sitting in the Report New Issues are since I originally posted back in May of last year and although has been frequented by Moderators and Devs alike, @W0LFayame and @JetPartySalad , this thread has never been moved to the “Known Issues” area. Recently, there was another bug that popped up during Spring S40 where users couldn’t activate the Hidden Treasure challenge. That issuse DID get moved to the “Known Issues” forum in less than a week. Before you say, “Yeah, but it got 100 votes.” let me point out that other posts on the Known Issues forum are as follows:

  1. Cars - Lamborghini Aventador SVJ - Missing Textures on Exhaust Pipes (3936961)

  2. Auction House and Too Many Saves Issue

  3. Graphics - For some players reds are appearing as purple or pink after series 19 update

  4. Cars - Volkswagen Golf R ‘22- speedometer RPMs not in synch with UI speedometer RPMs
    image
  5. Environment - Player’s car falling out of the sky at the start of Horizon Open

Now some of the above mentioned have also been there for a long time without apparent resolution. The “Specified Distance Tracking” issue is very much an ongoing one and can’t be remedied without dev intervention. Is it really being looked at seriously? Is it even worth my while asking at this point since FH5 is nearing its end? Will moving it the the “Known Issues” area make a difference?

there are bugs dating to Horizon 4 and maybe even Horizon 3 - there’s minimal rhyme or reason to prioritisation

the voting system is meaningless, I can’t actually see a change in outcomes compared with Horizon 4

legal things are going to get done quickly if the other party is concerned

MS-forced things are going to get done quickly

proper game-breaking things, yes, they’ll do those

minor irritations - sometimes random things get fixed for whatever reason

one thing is NEVER going to happen - decent communication about what they’re doing

Are you telling me that there’s a possibility that this bug I’m experiencing might show up on day 1 when Horizon 6 comes out?

oh yes, definitely

consumable perks did not work correctly in FH4 and do not work correctly in FH5 in exactly the same way

we have forced wheelspins from certain events, such as the trial, where you get the car whether or not you want it - why not just bank the wheelspin?! - same in FH4, same in FH5 (as is the spinning-thing graphic, it was ported directly)

there are, no doubt, others

and we can look forward to any such issues being “solved” as soon as a ticket is sent in

Oh, you mean this that I got 2 years ago. LOL

“At this time, we don’t have any follow-up questions or steps for you to try so we are marking this ticket as “Solved”. The information you have provided has been logged. Please note that even though this ticket is marked as “solved” this issue is still under investigation with the developers. We will post an update to the support page and Twitter (@Forza_Support) when we have more information.”

Maybe I should just send them more information. Yeah… a follow-up will do nicely. Thank you.

you can try a follow up but . . . yeah . . . don’t hold your breath!

YAY! I can’t wait for them to take 2 years to fix a screen tearing issue that I’ve had for ages now, its completely ruining the game for me :sob:

Not to mention the stuttering that comes with it :expressionless:

…although it would be more than a minor irritation then.

Reminds me of when I posted an issue about the Horizon Mixtape station not rotating when it’s not selected like the other stations do, so every time you switch to it during a race you’ll always get “Fly” playing. It only got a few votes and was closed after a while, but it’s a clear issue that anyone can easily check by just selecting the station in the game. It shouldn’t rely on other people voting to get confirmed.

yes, this is the thing - there are some things that are just wrong, clearly so - why vote?

The replay has also been broken over 3 years, where the engine revs to its peak right after start, never coming down.
I don’t even know what issue bracket it holds with the studio. Probably in the “Not Giving a Toss Issues”
