F1 2013 Rubbered In Track

Yawama · Oct 10, 2013

I would like some help guys.

I stole this image from another thread

My game does not rubber in like that, even with max settings. It hasn't rubbered in like that since 2010, and I haven't got it working since.

For guys who do get the rubbering in track, can you post your specs/game settings? I'd love to see this effect.

I'm confused, why are you here if you hate this game so much?

And no, the rubbering in line was removed after the first patch in F1 2010. After that it wasn't included in 2011 or 2012. The track would get grippier over the course of a weekend, but it wouldn't visually develop a rubbered line.

That is absolute fact! 100%

I'm not being a fanboy, I'm just stating a simple fact that you seem to be ignoring.

F1 2013 does feature this visual rubbered line, but it's been problematic, some get it, some don't.
Codemasters are looking into it and my money is that they'll fix it. Because it's a good addition.

If you don't like their product, then leave.
And the fact that you state you only care about my opinion if it agrees with your view points to the fact you're very naive about this patching process.

If you can show me a game released with zero bugs, then I'll show you a liar.

LOLZ a game that allows for faster laptimes when your FPS are higher is not a bug in a racing game when shipped-

ITS A TOTAL FAILURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course the rubbering in visual is candy and not SO necessary. Nevertheless it makes me wonder what else we find. Like Savegames corrupting on my last race of the season and stuff.....already prepping myself accordingly. LOL Get the point? You can loose a lot of time and nerves playing this not knowing what awaits you around the corner.

There are a lot more grievances, but those don't belong to this thread so i leave it at that.

But there's a difference between giving Codemasters some constructive criticism, and just saying that their game is a "... A TOTAL FAILURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Yeah look I am sorry, but we are talking about the proper function of the 'meat & potatoes' of ANY competitive racing game. That those issues are not found and fixed prior to release is simply not good. Actually unacceptable. Period.

Constructive would be equal to CM apologizing to the fanbase profoundly and COMMITTING immediately to work with pressure on a patch and from the get go outlining WHAT they intend to fix.
This would maybe gain them some trust back. Until then......

@MarkVenom

Fair point, there are a couple of aspects that need fixing.

However, remember way back when you said they wouldn't fix this issue?

Well.....

patch 2 fixed this issue (at least for my system

).

vraev · Oct 26, 2013

Andy_J · Oct 26, 2013

After patch, my f1 2013 crashes at random intervals. Never crashed previously.

Phil Ciborowski · Oct 26, 2013

Figures! Im out of town and cant check till tomorrow! Im sure it will work. Thanks again for all those who were able to isolate and work on getting CM to fix this!

Well I do 100% distances, and so far for me it only appears and develops in GP mode. It doesn't seem to show up in career mode.

I GP mode it looks fantastic though.

same here doing india 50 percent got the rubbering in on gp mode but on career never had it

Andy_J · Oct 27, 2013

Works for me in Career mode. Better than ever actually. Lots more grip on rubbered line too. Love it.

ps, I only ever do career mode anyway.

Since the patch #2 I do get rubbered in line in career. It works brilliantly.

Are you on PC?

If so, then it should be running through steam, which automatically updates the game when a patch is released. You should see a download box appear when you try to boot the game.

Unless you have a pirated copy, in which case you cannot get the patches...

Phil Ciborowski · Oct 29, 2013

Rubbered in track works for me in GP and in career modes.. no issues ! LOVE IT!

Jonathan Rowland · Oct 29, 2013

i even got the rubbered in line appearing in an online 50% league practice last night. Never used to get it in any mode

Jonathan Blackmore · Oct 30, 2013

same for me jonathan, also in career mode on a 25% race too!
never use to get it either - can't decide if i like it or not tbh lol

Arjanator87 · Oct 31, 2013

I see it al the time, even after 2 or 3 laps

Phil Ciborowski · Oct 31, 2013

Did notice last night in an online league race of 50% that while the cloud cover was heavy the rubber didnt really take. But as it got warmer and sunnier the rubber really layed down. Cool feature!

Let me recite from that link: ' The difference now should be negligible and should allow fair competition between all players'

So there still is???? This is amateurish and goes to show how BAD this is coded. I don't call that fixed at all.

Edit: Love it when people dislike truth. Makes me crack up. Sheeple.

Woah, dude, that was like 2 weeks ago hahah

Also, wasn't the argument about whether or not the rubbering in effect appears or not? Not about the latency problems? I don't play online so I am not affected by this.

The line appears so I'm happy and the game is near perfect for me. I have been having awesome races so far. Really enjoyable.
