Dirt Rally - Why is CREST not working?

I really enjoy(ed) watching my Dirt Daily runs vs my friends on dirtgame.com, but recently it looks like the CREST system isn't working. I keep getting the message that I am "yet to set a time", even though the leaderboard shows that I have. Additionally, it doesn't show the run of the fastest player either (this is usually the default when you haven't set a time), so my suspicion is that there is an issue on Codemasters' side. Am I the only one experiencing this? Am I the only one who cares? What is the meaning of life? Please Codemasters, stop playing games with my emotions!

Hi! Sorry, I missed that this wasn't working. We're looking into it now. I don't know if ghosts have failed to record, or whether they're failing to load, but if it's the former I'm afraid we won't be able to bring back C.R.E.S.T. for previous records.

I'll keep you all posted here.

Sorry to toy with your emotions, I assure you you're not the only that cares! Also I believe the meaning of life is....42. ;)

OK, we're testing a fix internally and assuming everything goes to plan we'll release it tomorrow afternoon.

Unfortunately records uploaded while the bug was active still won't have their C.R.E.S.T. data after the fix is live.

Rest assured that cheat detection was unaffected and has been working correctly.

Apologies for the outage!

Yay! Now everyone can see me on maximum crashes attack!

Thank you for fixing it - I'm loving this game and comparing my ghosts to that of my friends really adds to the enjoyment :)

Maybe they are updating it to use the same egonet-backend as dirt4 might be using in the future? Just speculations.

The issue has been adressed by users all over the place, here, steam forum and codemaster forum. Codemasters does not respond anywhere, it's total silence. Their community manager is a fekkin' joke !!
