Yes, please.

AI is a nightmare. Same old bugs. None of the features of games that have been on the market for a decade. Crazy.

OK. I am ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sick of getting 3 second penalties for running wide and losing time. Un♥♥♥♥ingbelievable.

Further: Now regularly getting errors trying to join MP lobbies. Cars crashing in a race left a phantom wheel in the middle of the track but no safety car. Safety car bug still exists, glitching it or cars on track when they pit. Crash to desktop loading setups in MP lobbies on more than one occasion, fortunately in practice sessions. Daniel Ricciardo suddenly went out in a Merc in one MP session with no AI...

Patch 1.09 - Fixes none of the issues we've been having in a league. Start lights go out early for the host and spectators, random disconnects and races getting stuck on the start lights. Penalties are still more often applied to the person rear-ended than the offender.
Also, most time trial times have been randomly replaced with ones of a different time, and claims to be using setups when not and vice versa. Total farce. Codemasters got real lucky real racing is happening and people aren't seeing real F1 drivers face these issues week in week out.


Oct 1st '20: Practice race at Monza and I set a 1.55 after the first corner, then reconnected and got given an 18.1 second lap when I crossed the line, leaving no one coming close to fastest lap the rest of the race.

Oct 10th '20: NotASpy - "Okay, what the actual hell.... I remembered i tried to lower the graphics yesterday, but didnt try driving. Tried setting the graphics back to ultra and now rumble is back"

Nov: One patch after some high profile incidents on the esports races, gave people some hope. Still so broken. The last race of our league has to be redone, same as the first weekend of the season.
Esports ready... such a joke. Insane that this was part of a billion dollar valuation...

A really solid card game roguelike. The three classes each have features which make them genuinely unique, and make you approach the game with a very different style, and then there are a small range of ways to balance your deck with each of them depending on your tactics - prioritising defense, attack, poisoning for passive damage, determining which orb style you want to use...
There are a couple of really solid mod characters as well which take a similar approach to the design and make you focus on a different way of playing.
The relics you pick up along the way make each run suitably different as well.

The daily runs are really satisfying, and in fact the only downside to the game I find, is that when you do the dailies a lot you get used to decks full of rare cards from the start, and a vanilla run can feel a bit slow and extra challenging.

Crazy fun to play with others. Similar to Gangbeasts and the like, but the fact that it's co-operative elevates it to another level.
