NFS Shift - oval track bounce bug

Need For Speed Shift - oval track bounce bug. The bounce bug on the oval tracks seems to be a bit different than the bounce bug caused by bumpy sections of tracks. On the oval tracks, the cars seem to get disturbed by what appears to be smooth sections of track. Perhaps there is some invisible seams causing this. Dakota Tri Oval has the same issue with the fast cars like the Zonda R.

its also the physics of the game in real life if you car was pitching to the left and you slammed into the wall it would hop up just like that its no bug its how its supposed to be.

p.s. if you don't want your car to bounce don't slam into walls?

@therikoforever - this bug has nothing to do with suspension, but apparently with the way the game calculates car position: When going over a "compression" section, (like a dip or banked turn), a quirk in the physics calculates that parts of the car have gone below the surface of the track, the game inteprets this overlap as a very strong collision, resulting in severe bouncing, which in turn results in no grip, which finally resutls in car slamming into wall.

Video repsonse show it's both car and track related. The video response shows that a works Camaro SS doesn't have the bounce bug at Rustle Creek.

I see this on my game every now and then with some of my cars but i don't think it may be a game glitch.

Try adjusting your cars bumb stop(suspension), it its too low any small bump may cause the car suspension bottoming out and causing your car to hop up on corners( I.E. this video) if you raise it a bit your car shouldn't hop up but if you set it to high any bump will make your car start act like a POGO STICK.(like it has hydraulics)

Depending on the car, there is no setup that will prevent the bouncing. It's just a game bug.

@rcgldr Hmm very smart =]

ummm no...its not a bug your cars suspension is too stiff you can adjust it by softening your springs in advanced tuning but will result of responsiveness. also your ride height may be a problem as well to low and your car will bounce on the ground from bottoming out too high and your car will be unstable (very unstable) at high speeds. i know this because i spend hours on end tuning some of my cars.
