My first proper online race with R3E and i can see why it is a multiplayer alpha at this stage. Sorry to everyone if my car was invisible - i could see you all fine on my screen.
Had problems from the outset with the game. First my Data HUD stopped working, rejoining the server fixed that. Initially i got a terrible start but somehow ended up in P1 after T1 and pulled away bit by bit. Then i got a silly penalty for running wide at the Wurth Kurve (T5/T6) and Berger caught me up. As i now understand he could not see my car and he drove in to the back of me which pushed me off track and i got another penalty for cutting! Joel overtook me too and it was then he told me my car was invisible.
I was able to get back in to the lead toward the end of the race but several other weird game glitches happened along the way including one in which my car appeared to freeze and shifted back to first gear by itself at high speed. After that i had a red engine light but was able to continue racing. As the race got toward the end i was able to get back in to the lead, passing a very skilful Berger in the process, who somehow managed to give me a side by side battle despite not being able to see my car!
The to top off an eventful race on the last two laps i started loosing lots of engine power and Berger was able to go back past me. On the final straight the engine cried enough and Joel also snuck past in to second place. Any suggestions or fixes for the invisible car and other glitches?
hi jayblue,
i did not see you on track, but on the trackmap and (most of the time) in the standing thing in top of screen,
i saw you that you suddently loose any seconds and i had no idea where i should overtake as you had the penalty seconds, if i remember correct, i did drive to the right side on track, as i was thinking you drive in raceline, i did not feel any touch between our cars.
the other thing where you overtake me was you very long around 1 sec. behind and i was thinking in this time you know already that i do not see you and stay behind me, as it looks like you drive without full speed behind me, but then i did mistake in 1st corner (if i remember correct) and you was only 0.2-0.3 sec. and i had NO !!! i idea where you was on track, so i did 1-2 corner give room in inside of corners and watched the gaps in standing.
this with unvisible car is a nightmare and did kill the fun yesterday totaly of the race,
hope you can fix this problem, anty had similar problems for any races, but now it looks like good for him, and i think he did loose the HUD data too.
i had in past only 1xtime problem with this game online, and this was with the new thing load opponent cockpit.... perhaps this could be the problem??? (but probably not).
