Qualifying is broken

[agresko]

3 main issues that are happening 24/7 every race.

1. Cars are blocking too much they dont leave the racing line sometimes they dodge the racing line just to go back into it. Which blockts the flying cars losing like 1-3 seconds.

2. Sometimes the flying lap cars seem to be slowing down when approaching in/out lap cars.

3. And then there is the weather issue where cars don't go out to improve their times when the weather changes or sometimes they dont even go out at all.

please fix ;-;

Yep is true but then again some game mechanics feel to me to be fixed in the AI's favour intentionally so it kind of evens it out (still bad), As well maybe this hasn't occured but perhaps cars blocking in qual is intentional?, ie you the player the manager are sending your cars out at the wrong moment,? As well this as i have seen on the odd occasion also happens IRL, indeed this new tolerance of allowing cars on non qual laps to crawl around on a prelim/warm-up lap...is something i have disagreed since it was introduced, as it can come down to luck whether you will acheieve a time or not. which imho is farcical. as well the points system, DRS, reduction of available tire compounds , reduction of competitors and much else,, yet i am still a fan of the sport......

1. is working as intended for me. I think it is ok to get blocked from time to time in traffic.
All you have to do is look for a good spot/time when to get out, possibly even abort your flying lap, enter pits and give it another try. Absolutly ok in my opinion.
Qualify would be too boring if guaranteed all cars go out 100% of your way, it's more challengine to look for perfect time and spots to go out in my opinion!

i had several game crashes during qualy. happens to me when my car is on a flying lap passing a car on the warmup lap.

I can agree that not every quali should be perfect and yes sometimes blocking will happen. But as I said from what I have seen is that the out-in lap car will leave the racing line and then immediatly goes back into it which should be penalty as you cant do that. You cant just leave the racing line just to then go back into it and block the flying lap cars thats dangerous.
