We need better comunication

It seems that devs are twicking attributes values cause practice lap time have huge variation from day to day (5-6 seconds of difference).
This can affect gameplay too much and we should be able to know that in an official way, at least an announcement on the dedicated section of the forum. 

Couldn’t agree more.  Doesn’t take much time to put an announcement on forum.  Even one post just saying ‘we are experimenting with attribute balancing over next few days before implementing an update so expect varying results in practice times etc’

Not only lap times but also tyre degradation was changed.

Anyway "Test in production" does not sound a good idea.

I didn't even know this was happening but it explains a lot. Test in production would be a really good warning to have as nothing is worse than going into a race knowing you were somehow 5s off the pace in practice (when you'd only just lost the title fight one race ago) and deciding to risk it all on a Super Soft one stopper (Monaco, although it was still crazy). Despite all of that, won the race.

So this explains how all of that works out.

Crazy lap times in practice again. I repaired my cars (it was around 80% both car and engine) and lap times are like yesterday when they were damaged.

Does exist a test environment for IGP test team?

The fuel usage was decreased.

Tyre deg was increased, I've not noticed anything on fuel consumption and mediums are like hards now useless :(

Yeah fuel consumption seems the same as always 

Different conditions, different days. Nobody is changing values behind the scenes every day. You should always run practice prior to the race as the changing conditions usually over the 1-2hrs are relatively similar where as something from the day before can be far more different.

David, this has been confirmed that some attributes were changed last week.  These changes were then reversed the following day.

Source?

There is a thread confirming the initial changes in this channel (Time Trial 6 secs Apart).   The reversal came from good sources.

Out laptimes in practice. Check the german race in my league and other practice in the same day from other leagues.


In that german iGP the player 5 seconds behind did his laps before or after the change.

Still waiting on source.

Yeah I can agree, but I really appreciate the huge work that developers and moderators do to improve the Game and answer to all our questions on the forums. I think that they need to inform us on the changes that they do (I think is enough 1 or 2 sentences), but I don’t pretend that they must do it on every minimal change. They are really really busy and I think it’s ok how is it now.


Sorry for my bad English.

If you can’t be bothered to go the thread in this section then don’t expect someone to do it for you

i know they are busy but it's all about priority, it would have been more than enough a few words post in the dedicated section of the forum instead of a post in the "report bug" section because a player reported the lap time differences as a bug
