K-drive grind issues - WORKAROUND

[Fenrys_Delta]

So, the last hotfix messed up the "grind" trick on the K-drive.

The grind stops suddenly, making you fail the trick and lose the combo.

I used to get 3k combos, but now I can barely get a 300 one, because of this issue.

I found a temporary workaround, until DE fixes this: go to options / display, disable vertical sync and limit FPS to 60. Restart the game.

It´s not perfect, the grind will still drop ocasionally, but it will reduce the problem by 95%.

I´m sure DE is working on a fix and we will hopefully see another hotfix soon.

FPS related physics issues? G r o s s

I had that issue yesteday when I was streaming on Twitch for friends.

I had a lot of trouble keeping a grind going, since streaming causes slightly stutter for my gameplay. But once I'm playing noramlly, I had zero issue keeping a grind stuck.

PS. It's not the first time that our game play related performance is affected by FPS itself.

I know, it's just dumb and annoying when they happen. Especially when it happens from high FPS. Then it affects me, and that's even more gross.

I've always been good at games.

Imagine my embarrassment when I was streaming to my friend's friend.
Can't even keep a grind, such shame.

I don't understand the term keeping the grind?

Grinding on rails with the K-drive to keep the combo going.

lol the K-drive system is giving DE a run for their money.

The last hotfix broke the grind and now even the race NPCS are out.

Did you actually get the standing though? It always displays along the top upon race completion, but doesn't, or hasn't at least, been actually going into the faction.

Got the numbers wrong but the points are legit, i dunno what this bug is doing bur it may be a partial effect.
