RaceRoom - Fanatec competition update
Author: Marcus Jaeger,
published 9 years ago,
A previously unknown bug found in the cut track rules at Portimao has been brought to our attention. Some players chose to exploit this bug and shortcut a portion of course layout, resulting in unrealistic times being recorded on the leaderboard. This exploit has now been patched.
We will relaunch the Fanatec competition with the updated cut rules and a new leaderboard, using the original competition terms and prize list. All players will need to submit a new lap time to be eligible to win. The competition will be launched anew at a later date.
We remind everyone that according to paragraph 16 of the EULA, use of exploits is not allowed anywhere in the game. Winning laps are verified manually and we reserve the right to exclude any time deemed to breach the EULA or individual competition rules.
We wish to thank the community members who reported the exploit, including some of the top competitors in the event. Thank you for your honesty!
As RaceRoom is still in development, these things can happen. Thank you all for your patience and understanding.
