Monaco...

This is just getting beyond pathetic now..

Monaco.. +8 Sunny and nothing but fully pushing for 13 laps now and the tyres are still blue and by the time the drop off zone happens.. They will STILL be blue..

What are we paying for here??

I have seriously had enough of this BS... It's been over a year and nothing has improved.. *Queue the monkeys talking BS saying that it's fine"

Really really fed up. Why am I WASTING £5 to HELP iGP when nothing is happening to sort these issues out..

That is over £60 a year I pay to this game... I am seriously thinking about seeing if I can get my money back... as to me.. It's feeling like I am just being screwed over for nothing.

I apologise for the inconvenience you are having to put up with. Not sure who is saying it's fine, because the whole team are aware that there are a number of things which are not fine.

There is a tremendous amount of work going on to address issues, this one is less important than some & so has not been dealt with yet. Rest assured that this is on the list & hopefully it can be resolved soon.

Thanks for replying Edwin.

I'm just so fed up.. We got the tyres to work for about 2 laps and then they go straight off and start to get cold again.

It's just fully pushing and I said about this in the summer.. So seeing nothing happen in over a year is just crazy.

It honestly feels like somone is taking over £60 a year from me and then asking me to bend over and say thank you...

I pay per month because I honestly believe this is going to be an awesome game.. I just wish these very basic things get sorted.

I honestly think that putting a ramdom weather syster with boundaries for each track would stop this and make a solid base to move forward...


Monaco weather..

Sunny - 65% Chances.

Overcast - 10% Chances.

Raining - 17% Chances.

Thunderstorms - 8% Chances.


Temps should range from 15 Degs to 30 Degs....


These should be the weather boundaries and between that it should be as random as possible....

It should be more important than other problems like design revamp because this is something that affects the enjoyment we have, while on track.

Having racer where at Full Push on Softs doesnt' heat up the tyres without super short stints is silly. Then if the Softs don't heat up, you can't even think about going longer on Hards to pit less, like they do these days in F1. The reason for this is because if you put in lots of fuel, it makes heating up your tyres even harder when it's cold.

Too many races are becomng dull as hell.

Curretnly, the service were paying for is so inadequate it's becoming a joke.

I dread Monaco every season which is a shame as it's one of my favorite tracks.

But Rob, it's the same for everyone, it's not like someone had super softs or anything. You have no disatvantage over over other guys. So, why so upset ? Yes, it's a problem in Monaco, speed it's low, you need super soft compound here, IGP doesn't provide one, but as long as all are in the same boat, no real disatvantage here. It's like playing football and complaining it rained and the pitch was soaked. The opposing team played in the same conditions.

Curious that in the real world, in Hungaroring in 2009, or in the early sessions in the 2012 US Grand Prix, when all teams were having problems getting any heat into tyres that there wasn't this level of complaint to Pirelli.

Sometimes this actually happens in F1 races, and as Alin says, it's the same for everyone in the race, so it doesn't make any difference.  Sometimes the tyres will give you a challenge, we just had -2 degrees in China and it threw up quite a lot of surprises, it made us have to think. Which was nice.

Rob, if you're so fed up, and feeling like you're being bent over, and have "seriously had enough of this BS" why don't you quit?  It's a game that you have no obligation to play, the thing about games is that you can choose whether to play or not. If a crossword really pisses me off, I put it down.

Dude.. the annual sub is only £29.99...

Well said Alin - I never actually thought of it like that!
I think I get carried away thinking I am the only one affected - but so it everyone else.  That puts it all into perspective.  And as others have said, it is only at Monaco so we should all be aware of this and just accept it for now, infurating as it is!

+1..... Not too sure what the weather complaint is about

The weather is real life

Ehhh ???

So in football when it rains, each player runs at 100% all the time without thinking about doing anything else???

That isn't really a good point tbh..

It's not just Monaco.. It's most tracks.. We raced in China with it being -5 and was in the same boat.. Fully pushing for nearly 8 laps and then moving them to normal pushing for 1/4 of a lap to cool the tyres down... That isn't racing...

The issue is waiting over 1 year for very BASIC issues to be addressed..

@ Rich. I have my own place and bills each month.. Every time the specials have come out, I've not had the money at the time to pay for it, so I am stuck with paying per month... I would not be as bothered if "Simple" little updates happen.. but since I've been here, only 1 update has happened and I log on to read people with issues each day every day....

* The Bugs section is the busiest part of the forums*

We have a superb league and we have had people joined us and can not believe that we talk to each other during the race and actually help others out.. Dan has just signed up to our league and told us that he has 4 other accounts and no one has ever helped or given him advice about iGP... We have a great laugh and enjoy our chats... It's just a shame that the game is so flawed..

I have to say i agree with Rob and having raced with him i know he is very knowledgable and fun person to race with.
I have two accounts and in both leagues we talk to each other and help each other out.
There are alot of weather faults with this game including the mystifying wetness condition on the debug console thingy.
I know its the same for everyone but racing in -8 oC is just not what we should be planning for and trying to guess what tyres to put on in the wet is a joke.
A few simple things like putting a tyre indicator to show what tyres you have on or follow pirelli's colour scheme would help enormously.
Realistic weather is the least we can expect from a good game like this one.

Taking weather from the actually track during winter time is a real bad idea because, yeah it's a cool feature to have the exact conditions they have, but what series races at tracks where the tempature is below freezing apart from Winter Series Cups?

No high format championship like World Series by Renault, GP2, WTCC, F1 etc would go racing where it's below freexing during the day and not raining. I bet it's going to be warmer than that when they go to Russia.

We were at Monaco last night and our tires were at optimum by lap 7.

Taa Daaaaaaa.... I knew it... Just to easy...

Great Britain..

6 below... Overcast... Average tyrewear track..

Softs are taking 2 laps to come in and I am running a stupid setup on purpose and I'm whooping the field..

This is getting dull and boring and stupid tac-tics = win ????

It's just not racing.. it's pathetic.

esp when China was -1 and the tyrewear is more and they take longer to come in.. Please can someone explain this...

Move league, seek new challenges.

Fix game and stop replying with stupid posts ????

I put on a dumb setup on purpose as knowing this game is like the way it is... Stupid setups = win...


Nice reply.. So game is a mess and you say STUPID things like that... I'm amazed you didn't name drop a dev like normal.... I give up when that is the kind of half wit responces you get..

Fixing the game's really horrible weather system would be a better idea. Taking weather from the tracks works in the middle of the day, but when races are run in the evenings, you get weather that would only be expected at 24Hr events. No F1 races.

The weather system is flawed as it was designed in expecting everyone was going to race at some expected time, yet people have real lives and work iGP around it, so some of us have evening leagues.

There is something wrong with the setups. The other day at Germany, 4 or 5 teams running standard setups (didn't even log on to load last seasons one) qualified 0.6 seconds faster than my team who has a car that is 10-15% better than them. In fact their setups were that completely wrong that in the race they were 3 seconds a lap off the pace compared to me, so how did they qualify so fast? They were less than half a second off the lap record aswell might I add.

inb4youdidsomethingwrong - my drivers (1 of them atleast) is 18 talent and very well trained, and my car is 90% more or less. In fact one of the drivers who had no setup qualified P2 while my 18 talent driver qualified P18. In a nut shell, basically all the teams who logged on and did setups / strategies qualifed worse than the teams who had old parts and no setups, even though their drivers are better and their design is higher.
