Lol not at all questioning his virtue…
Well, most definitely not for me. Just did three races, got kicked in races 1 (first corner) and 3 (lap 3 of 4), and race 2 I actually won because everyone else got kicked. But I was sweating all the way to the finish line. lol
Not sure about anyone else but tonight I managed the best part of 3 hours without the lobby disconnect error message that I had been getting previously. Instead I had an unable to allocate server message when trying to find a lobby but once I was in a lobby it was all good (well apart from the usual smash fest!)
Fingers crossed this is a sign that whatever the underlying issue is is on the mend?
Since last that I reported that the race monitors are sitting at the back of the race stationary and are a sure indication that I’m going to be disconnected, they have since changed their position to the inside of the race. Twice in succession I’ve been disconnected by these very same monitors, who I still see sitting stationary as I do a look back as I pull off and know for sure I’m going to be connected. Is this all a coincidence? I think not. Management needs to take this up with the tech support group to prevent this kind of harassment in the game.
For all of you being disconnected, do a look back and if you see cars stationary as you pull off, and if you do it’s a sure sign you will be disconnected. I would like to list a few expletives here, but I’m sure the folks doing this are trying to provoke by good anger, but I will not succumb to their puerile, sophomoric tactics!!!
Yesterday was a better day as I only got disconnected once (at Catalyluna ARRGGHH!!!) in about two hours of racing. Seems to be a day by day thing with no rhyme or reason to it.
Big improvement here too. Could enter MP last night for only the second time since launch. Had 5 races in B class, then had to exit myself (wife time) and returned later to do 17 races in a row without any hassle of disconnecting or other issues. That was great. The helldrivers I met en-route is another story for another time, save it to say that some of them really need some manners.
Enter a League Race and see how long you can stay connected…
I noticed last night that after I reported a player via their Gamertag I got disconnected shortly after starting the next race. (B-Class Hopper)
If I report any players tonight and similarly get disconnected, I’ll make another post as it may be a repeatable issue.
I played a lot of league races. I was still getting disconnected. I had a number of races that did not disconnect, but then I also had about thirty to forty five minutes of wasted time where I could not remain in a lobby. I kept getting disconnected repeatedly. I had two races which completed and the points screen was stuck displaying Please wait… Loading… I never received the points for winning those races in a five racer lobby. The final dagger just before the lobby closed a few minutes ago. I was disconnected on the final lap in the final turn of Watkins Glenn Full after taking the lead in the first lap from starting fourth place. I immediately tried to join a lobby. It put me back in the dame one or it appeared so. There were three racers finishing up Watkins Glen that were in my previous lobby. I got screwed out of points that would have put me in fourth place at the current standing for Executive Heavy Heights Elite League.
Someone needs to undo whatever it is that they did. Whether it is Turn10 or Xbox. We went from a small group of racers reporting connectivity issues to a large portion of online racers having issues.
Ok, I just installed the new dashboard/OS update and then launched FM6.
Waited until 16:00 when the E class ghost league opened (24 minutes ago).
Drove 1 race, won it. Next race: Disconnect within 5 seconds after launch… Just like before. This is so very annoying. Turn10, could you please post an official statement on this somewhere?
So after waiting the better part of a week for this to be fixed by the Thursday update it’s still persisting? And nothing officially said?
Only 19 days till December update… Woot woot

How hard can it be to just deploy a hotfix?
I really hope we get a free DLC of sorts as a compensation for this mess… Sucks to buy a game this expensive and not be able to play it…

The people that know aren’t talking… I guess it’s a need to know kinda thing…the people that buy and play the game evidently don’t need to know

I played for a while last night and I’d say it dropped 1:6 after the update vs 1:3 before the dashboard update. Frustrating but at least there was some improvement. I noticed that when Forza was having the most trouble and I switch to COD it seemed like it might also be having some sort of similar issue. I think our problem isnt just on Forza’s end but a mix caused by the new dashboard update.
I’m in the not playing column now, and not by choice,
but it isn’t far from there to the by choice column.

I assume that we are going to have to wait till the next content update before this major issue is addressed? There have been instances where the league lobbies have crashed several times in a row. This is an issue that should have been addressed already. The last content update has practically broke the lobbies.
Dropped 4/5 this morning. Not gonna waste a second trying to get on MP this weekend.
Raced a few times on multiplayer today and it seems that it crashes less often but I think it’s stuck on the same track every time? E class league constantly had Prague reverse so I went to a P class lobby and that constantly had Indy oval even after people voted for other tracks.
Drag racing hoppers are stuck at the same track… Let’s see u can choose 2 car mile or 2 car mile or 2 car mile lol. Also got booted after 2 races… Very frustrating, guess I’ll spend the weekend splitting wood.
