ai messed up

[MFP_Dark_One]

since the new update yesterday the ai seems alot harder now i cant even beat it on new driver dont matter what i try. tuning or different cars always the same result the guy in first second and third are just so far in front i cant catch them up any more even on new driver on single player mode

how ever if i goto free play i can easlly beat them on above average by 3 to 6 seconds

Drivatar inconsistency has always been a thing here, as you’re always racing different drivatars on dfferent tracks.

I am having the same difficulty’s. I think it is very hard to catch up with the top 3 racers. I even lowered the difficulty settings compared to FM5. Another topic suggested to set Drivatar settings higher, so I will try that.

now that suggestion is counter intuitive and almost absurd and aginst all logic so why the heck dose it work i was struggling to get in the top 5 on road america tryed your idea and got second place so i got a pass

I have recently moved the AI level up to expert and I find the racing to be much better. I don’t always win, but I can usually get in the top 3. Can’t explain how that works, but give it a try.

They said they patched the ‘bug’ where the top driver(s) were driving away massively from the rest of the pack, but I can’t notice it.

Here overtook second place, 2 laps from the end and first place shot off into the distance: http://i.imgur.com/OJOnrqC.png

They didn’t say the patched it, they said they are still looking into it. They made some changes they hope will help, but it is not “fixed” yet.

I haven’t noticed any difference after the patch, they are as bad as before, I use Pro settings, I don’t always win, but I always get in the top 3.

I have noticed that having a harder difficulty is easier to win. The fast car has more trouble overtaking on a harder diff.

its not entirely an ai problem. there are p class cars in r class races. when you are racing cars with a +70 pi advantage its not the ai (driver) it is the equipment. in many races it is people running the same car and tune on every track and there is no “best tune” that can win on every track. what is 1st place on one track can be last place on another track. looking at only the ai wont be able to fix those problems. if its fixed on your game, the ai is adjusted for the tune you use, the problem is going to be magnafied for other players that are useing the tunes that you can sometimes beat because if they cant beat you on a track their car is tuned for, forget it for them when it comes to racing on tracks their car is not tuned for.
