Als es in den Early Access ging, war klar, dass das offizielle WEC-Spiel noch einiges an Arbeit vor sich haben würde. Le Mans Ultimate Patch 1 ist nach mehreren Hotfixes der erste große Schritt in diese Richtung - das Update für LMU ist jetzt verfügbar.
Die Liste der Korrekturen und Anpassungen ist erwartungsgemäß lang - und sie reicht von kleinen Ärgernissen bis hin zu größeren Problemen. Die Platzierung der Flaggenanzeige im Porsche 911 RSR-19 GTE fällt in die letztere Kategorie, da die Anzeige an der A-Säule je nach Sitzposition die Sicht auf linke Scheitelpunkte versperrt. Le Mans Ultimate Patch 1 hat die kleine Box aus dem Weg geräumt.
In der Zwischenzeit sollten die Wetteroptionen nun korrekt gespeichert werden, die Benutzeroberfläche wurde überarbeitet (einschließlich des Triple-Screens-Setup-Tools) und Voreinstellungen für Asetek-Räder wurden zu den Eingabeoptionen hinzugefügt.
Le Mans Ultimate Patch 1: Einzelspieler- und Online-Verbesserungen
Darüber hinaus wurde das Online-Erlebnis etwas gestrafft: Meldungen, die in bestimmten Situationen nicht erscheinen sollten, wurden entfernt, Spieler können nicht mehr aus der Startaufstellung fahren, wenn dies nicht möglich sein sollte, ein Countdown auf dem Monitor vor dem Rennen und vieles mehr.
Zu den Verbesserungen im Einzelspielermodus gehört, dass sich die KI nun in den einzelnen Klassen aufstellt, auch wenn kein Qualifying stattfindet. Bisher war die Startaufstellung auf unrealistische Weise gemischt, was bei Rennstarts zu einem Chaos führte, da die GTE-Autos vorne fuhren und den Prototypen-Klassen in die Quere kamen.
