    Correct
    You can better set the server the way that nobody can join when the Qualifying has started

    Yes, it's quite bad sometimes, enough to put you off track. Weirdly it's not when everybody joins.

    It ruined enough of my laps in training as well. That is merely a work around. Especially sorry, as it seemed to be cured till the recent patch

    I do not go MP often in racertoom, almost never. Partly due to the envrionment (track-car combos, almost no trackdays, low player numbers), but then also due to the microfreezes as described. They have been there for me whenever I went online.

    Raceroom is an offline experience for me (even while being forced to stay online). Driving MP is very uninteresting for me. And other sim's servers are far more stable and smooth. raceroom has a deficit there.

    Not only back but even worse as it was.
    Yesterday someone drive a second behind me (in Qualifying) when someone join the room.
    My view freez more than a second and I was also driving more than a second behind the one who was driving in front of me.
    Hé had no freezing
    A couple of rounds later someone else had a freez when another one join, but in that case i don't
    Hope that this wil Fixed soon

    Yes I suppose it's related with the car used by the joiner, the game loads it in RAM and freezes.
    On the eSports round 3, I noticed that after enough players was in, there wasn't freeze anymore, probably cause all cars was loaded in RAM by my game.
    It's easy to test, join a server alone, ask a friend to join with another car or same as yours.

    But I have the (maybe wrong) feeling that devs don't want to communicate on this issue, I reported it weeks ago, I also read people complaining about it, but there's never an explanation from devs, while they answer in few hours to some other reports.
    Maybe it's the kind of issue inherited from the old base game and requiring a lot of work to fix, like to make it offline... ^^
