HD Patch 1.20?

[djKyoto]

Just been asked to get this (after it stalling on me).

It's 9304kb. I didn't know another patch was comming out. Anybody got any info on what it does? (nothing on google) Judging by the size it's probably just a patch to fix some techinical issues.

Some changes on the campaign. now all modes have easy, normal and hard.
but the cool thing is the online changes. as all we know, there are games that got 8 players but the host doesnt' start it. now, when a game get half grid, the game will auto-start in 1minute. 20 secs for 8players.

Sounds good

Got a day off today! so will fire up my ps3 in a sec and test it out

[Asayyeah]

i am getting the road down to le Havre in the next min so i ll DL that patch asap when i am at home
Thx Mauro for the news

[blackwiggle]

That should get some people back into playing HD as I noticed a hell of a lot had given up.

The online autostart is good,but will be a bit of a pain when trying to organize a BLING GG I think,supposed to having two tomorrow....see what happens.

I wonder if the problem with people not being able to see a game up on the board if the friends filter is applied has been fixed,hope so,that's a real headache.

You lucky so and so, wouldn`t mind a long weekend myself.

Great to know the game is still getting support. Hope to test this online with you all this weekend.

how do the campaign changes effect the elite campaign trophy? Is there still an elite mode? I was near the end of that one.

Did they change the AI any at all? I swear that elite AI cheats!

I hope elite level time trials aren't harder! Otherwise I can say good bye to elite campaign.

I swear that elite AI cheats!

I have no doubt it does.
I'm trying to do the 8 race Elite in Meltdown, one of only three Elite cells left to claim, and I can get the first three in first place, then I get attacked left, right and centre in Chengou and get a DNF.

My ass gets blasted off the side of Sol2 at every corner it seems, totally unrealistic!!!!

I just noticed a bit of a problem since the update.

Just has a race with 8 players,4 joined almost straight after I did,the autostart kicked in before the last of those four had chosen a craft.

The game starts,but it was like when your waiting for somebody during a tournament with 4 names hanging there on the screen saying waiting for [insert 4 names]

Then 4 crafts on the grid appear and straight away those last 4 names wev'e been waiting for come up one by one as having left the game before to GO.

It has to be due to the new patch,as before the only way you could quit was once the race had actually started.

OH Dear,this doesn't look good I'm sorry to say.

[blackwiggle]

No Elite is still their,it's just like Racebox except now selectable in Campaign as well now.
The thing is you can get gold at the lower settings in TT and Speed Lap but you still need to beat the Elite AI to get the trophies that demand it.

i've read around many people had suffer lag problems ,stutter game and lost of fluidity and other minor bugs after download 1.2 patch, all really annoying issues, i've already have sudden problems of frame rates , in the last days my game had begin to lose frames in certain circumstances or certain tracks and really i do not know why, maybe after the last 1.1 download and i've discover these bugs only now,'cause i'm sure 100% that my game just after being downloaded and the month after have never sufferred any frame rate lost

so what i should do? try to download 1.2 patch and risk?

[blackwiggle]

I"ve found it seems to be related to the amount of friends activity alerts that are popping up on your screen,also just around the same time a split time appears.
Something or things are causing small interrupts to the game now where it didn't happen before,well not as noticeably.

Just download it mate. It only slows down when your friends are signing in which you can always turn off. Besides you will be missing out from all the multi player fun dude.

Yes, disable the message and logon notifications. It solves the micro stutters you may experience. Although it sucks because you will never know when people will send you a message when you play

[darkfaerytales]

so...you say that if i disable the notifications the stutters will dissapear?
what it have to do...i have stutters on metropia always in the same point of the track, on moa therma in the " flatlander trophy " point of the track and occasionally when there's big mess on screen, i have a full hd samsung series 5 new purchased six months ago...is it normal? you tell me that the problem is the notification on screen, i have race always off-line , till yesterday i've my adsl disabled...
so...
