There's no fix on career and this is a fake update.

# 2 Steve_OS @ 11/06/10 12:04 AM

What do you mean fake update?

Exciting to turn on my PS3, update my game and see the difference.

# 4 Hjkflannel @ 11/06/10 10:20 AM

First race got stuck in the pits but it was particularly congested, few races after and no real problems, the ai seems to send you out on longer runs so everybody has already pitted by the time you do. No punctures as of yet....

# 5 OnlookerDelay @ 11/06/10 10:23 AM

In my experience on the XBox 360 version, all of the listed fixes are working as advertised. The only thing that looks a little goofy is how sharply AI cars drop off their speed to let you pass in qualifying, and to a lesser extent, practice. Overall, I think the AI's are driving more consistently in races and I find that I'm having to work harder in races to keep pace with them, which I take as a positive.

It's really nice to go into a turn now with AI drivers on either side of you, knowing you're not going to get mugged. You've just got to hold the radius of your turn and you'll make it.
I'm very pleased with this game now and count it among my top 5 all time XBox 360 games!

Just patched the PC version, and I'm seeing cars pitting now. That's different, and also the controls are more loose, I didn't see anything about them tweaking that, I have to really steer gently now, other I hit numerous walls.

# 7 Kully @ 11/06/10 05:23 PM

Breaks weather effects on certain pcs, there's a quick fix posted on their forums but that kills framerates.

# 8 OutcastNeedhelp37 @ 11/06/10 05:37 PM

I'm always last place in every single race in my career and the difficulty is on easy.What team is best with good cars? I'm with Lotus.

# 9 Dazraz @ 11/07/10 12:53 PM

The game still plays poorly when used with a normal controller. Far too sensitive. A steering wheel is a must.

I'm not having any problems with it. I'm on the 360 and play on hard difficulty and I don't find it is too sensitive. You have to drive these cars, not slam them into corners, hard on the stick, hard on the triggers isn't they best (or fastest) way to play. I think it controls fine with the controller.

# 11 Sundown2600 @ 11/10/10 03:33 PM

Fuel sim was not fixed and CM have finally issued a statement in their forums admitting that they know about the problem and are not sure if it will be fixed. This is a game killer for me I'm already bored with it.
