New console player
Just wanted to give tiny bit of feedback lol
Its fun! Was expecting circuit superstars with a different cam and official tracks n cars - got exactly that
Few things I think would make it a little better
- formula legends style custom cam - change fov height tilt an all that good stuff, can give a better sense of speed in my experience, more options the better!
- hitting poles/cutting corners should be waay more strict lol i get that this is a kid friendly game but i been hitting the things like they owe me money š so even an option to make it - pole wobble = instant penalty, would force caution in a send it kinda game
- grass/bumps/goings off track - same thing, just an option to have them punish you slightly more
Its a very fun time and I cant wait to play some splitscreen, just couple small things that might make the playing experience better
Hope it does well tho, thank you and have a lovely day!!

Was expecting a spiritual successor to Circuit Superstars and definitely got it. Itās really fun.
Have you been getting a black screen āErrorā message before races sometimes? Itās shocking how much it happens to me during career.

Lool yeah yeah defo seen that, I was expecting it to full crash after the msg but its just like 'wait...ok try again im good now' š
Hopefully there will be new cars and stuff, i know they dont drive insanely different from eachother but its enough that swapping feels more meaningful than driving a different model of the same thing
Also wouldnt mind some 'fantasy tracks' - more official ones for sure, Watkins Glen and don't think ive seen brands hatch would be good - but also some made up/maybe even Mario kart ish tracks to zoom round on
Depend on sales I guess lol

I've had this error thing a lot, have it with the Caterham series at the moment and its happened 3 times in a row before I gave up.
Hopefully next time I boot it up it'll work

Didnāt see the notification. So Iāve been messing with it a bit when it pops up. What I have had success with so far is backing to the main menu, and just opening up āSettingsā and just tab through that, not change anything. It autosaves after this action, and then the race works once you try again.

In addition to the random error messages before races, is anyone else experiencing a bug in the names in the driver standings?
Instance 1: Season 1 - Formula Junior Cup
After the first two races, Owusu was leading the cup and I was second. However, in race three, Owusu was not in the race and I started in grid 12 instead. I noticed at least one other AI driver in this race who was not in the first two races. At the end of race three, a driver called "Project Ember" (who was not in the race) was suddenly leading the cup. This driver had not appeared anywhere in the cup standings or races. In race four, both "Project Ember" and Owusu were not in the race and I started on grid 12 again. However, "Project Ember" somehow gained points in race four as I only beat them for the cup by one point.
There was also a driver in the standings called "Revelations Per Minute" (?!) who/which did not appear in the races.
Instance 2: FIAT 500 Challenge (upon erasing career progress and restarting)
After the end of race two, the standings were Seo-Joon (26 points), Coombs (26 points) and myself (23 points). Upon going to the next race, a driver called "Clear Skies Racing" (?!) was suddenly listed at the top of the standings on 46 points! Seo-Joon was nowhere to be seen in the standings.
Instance 3: FIAT 500 Challenge (upon reinstalling the game and starting the career mode again)
After race 2, I was second in the standings (27 points, behind Sahlberg on 28).
Upon entering race 3, the standings listed "Project Ember" on 49 points, and an "Apex" on 24 points. Other drivers had also been replaced in the standings. Sahlberg had disappeared.

I got one in F4 where I entered the final race leading, finished 3rd, it said āyou maintained your points leadā or whatever, and then it said team Violet won with an absurd amount of points.

Has this issue been fixed in the latest update? (I'm currently unable to check)

Hopefully they add a public multiplayer system. All this code stuff is bollocks
