Players disconnecting from Multi-class lobbies

Right before the start of the race, players are randomly disconnecting from the lobbie, this is the second time happening in multi-class. I haven’t seeing this in the open class lobbies.

I’m on another lobbie right now, multi-class, Homestead Miami, let’s see how it goes.

Just finished the race, everything looked normal. I don’t know if it is going to be a rare occurrence but it’s important to keep an eye on.

I’ve been on the other end of this. When changing from the pre-race grid to the race start the game just freezes and crashes to desktop. Since I saw a lot of names from the lobby that I crashed in in the next race (the one you cannot join when finishing the race where my game crashed), they must have had the crash at that same moment.

The lobby crashes without fail every time if i’ve stayed in the lobby and complete the second practice and without fail 5 secs before race start it crashes.

just to be clear - join a lobby, practice & race, stay in, join next race, practice, 5 secs from race start CRASH.

I’m also getting massive stuttering/lag during practice, and no matter what my fuel tank during practice is always full.

I’m suffering exactly the same issues

Same. Back to random crashes. Exiting practice, end of walk the grid, changing car.
Massive stutters when a player joins or leaves lobby, or joins/exits practice.
Memory at 0000000000 cannot be read windows pop-ups again.

It’s like all the stability gains from update 10 onwards got overwritten by the bad og code.

edit I’m only in forums because I crashed to desktop at race start, the 2 multiplayers I tried today …

Crashed pre-race to main menu. PC.

With you, crash to desktop predominant. 4/5 lap on new event crash. MP yesterday and today crash when timer hit 0 to start the race after getting pole and waiting 12m, frustrating and time wasting and why I have yet to take on MP in FM.

Even hotlapping is a pain since yesterday crashing after a few laps, starting lap dirty or timer not starting right after using skip lap. (and yes did not do anything in the lead to start of lap to cause it to be dirty).

It is still full of bugs but anything causing crash where there was none, or less, before is painful.

If I’m playing multiplayer solo I get no crashes.
If I’m with a friend, it crashes seconds before the second race starts.

This is from today, 12 people before the loading screen, just me and other player after it.

I’m being subjected to this crash a fair bit too.

In the menu immediately before race start (where you pick tyres and fuel) I get crashed to desktop.

I got that kind of crash too, it’s been frustrating lately after the update.

Ok this is driving me nuts now.

3 races in a row got crashed to dashboard at some point before the race (when I finish qualifying, setting race strategy, or just before the race start counter)

@here
A hotfix went out Monday to fix a couple crashes including this:
Fixed a crash that could occur for several players in a Multiplayer lobby during Practice & Qualifying menus or Grid Preview scene prior to the race. [1878574].

Are you still experiencing the same crashes or same numbers of players appearing to disconnect?

Hi, at the moment, no. If anything similar happens I’ll report on that.

Thanks for the reply.

I noticed a patch and was thinking this might’ve been what it was for.

I can confirm that since the patch, I haven’t had this issue again.

Thanks!
