    Mechanically there is not much different between a manual and a DCT (apart from the obvious), both are as stiff as it gets for powertrains.
    Not sure if you switched up some transmission types here, but apart from the actual shifting, DCT and manual would not really feel different at all.

    Is there a faster way to change differentials/drivetrain? Right now, I use the radical menu.

    You can also use the default key bindings:
    • ALT A for Range Mode
    • ALT S for 2WD/4WD
    • ALT D for Differential Mode
    Ninja'd :(

    I love the new update the career is a lot of fun, but I'm having some issues with the automatic transmissions, I'm getting stuck in 1st and 2nd. first noticed this in the career i thought i was speed limited cause It wouldn't go over 60 in a race but driving to the other areas It seemed i had no issues. Jump in free roam and its much more apparent, I was wondering if being rough on it was the issue, but no, being light or heavy has no effect, but it randomly decides not to shift past 2nd gear, even happened after I made a U turn and tried to come back fast. Even the new Burnside is getting stuck for me going 48 mph in second whether I baby it up to speed or jam the throttle it sticks but reset it and it might work (tried slowing down speeding back up, throttling on and off, reverse, switching it to arcade sim or realistic, popping it into drive from neutral puts it into a higher gear for a split second but its not fixing it)
    I also love the new addition to the cars, I'm seeing some spiking in the inner wheel well/engine a lot
    and thanks guys, I'm always so excited to see whats new in the updates theres always so much great content! keep up the great work and Happy Hollidays!

    That doesn't sound normal.

    Mods? If yes, have you disable them first?
    What device to drive?
    What 'Shifting Mode'?
    What car you are experiencing this on? (Exact configuration name too please)

    I'm using a 360 controller to drive
    realistic mode, and I was able to recreate it in the Drag burnside(A) and the D15 V8 4WD (A) and both the D15 and D25 4WD extended cab , I was not able to do it in the 200BX (A) theres no issues for me with manuals
    EDIT: It seems to be happening after pressing left trigger for brake in neutral before driving off after spawning.
    EDIT 2: I'm currently recreating it in every vehicle with an automatic transmission, it will also break if you come to a complete stop in neutral even after getting to higher gears

    And which "gear" of the automatic are you driving in? Some cars have the "2" gear which indeed limits the car to just the 1st and 2nd gear. However this should not happen in D(rive) or S(port) or even M(anual).

    Personally i think it feels way better now, but i had to play around with the gameplay settings to get it right for me. Also i feel like the fully automatic cars really feel like automatic now, a bit sluggish, a bit of character and all that jazz.

    I'm driving in (D) drive set the setting in the menu to load in realistic mode, loading in safe mode or not, I've recreated it in every car with an automatic so far, just loading up blank map, pressing left trigger for brake while the car is still in neutral and then shifting to D with the (A) button and pressing right trigger for throttle it will not shift out of first while in drive Edit: 1st and 2nd gear are not working at all after doing this, shifting to them does nothing Edit 2: DCT transmissions do the same thing breaking (D)rive but let you shift normaly in M1-M5
    Edit 3: Its even breaking the (D)rive with the car not coming to a complete stop. braking hard before and around a corner will make it not shift out of 1st in drive

    Awesome update guys!
    Every time when I think the game can't get better you prove me wrong :)
    And there is so much new stuff!

    Just a question, did you maybe forget to enable higher resolutions than 1080p for the main menu or are tgere still problems with it?

    Have a nice holiday!

    Options > Graphics.
    From there you can change the UI maximum resolution.
    From 720p to 1080p. And eventually remove the limiter at all (at your own risk, it may cause performance issues). The UI checks the resolution vertically.
