Good Afternoon,
I have looked and looked but I have been unable to find a way to add AI to small private matches (like I have easily been able to in every FM or FH title). I spend 90% of my playtime playing private matches with a few close friends and filling the track with AI, it is not nearly as fun racing with 2-3 cars 50 laps around LeMans as it would be with 12-18 or even 24.
Agree! It is a shame that there isn’t an option for this.
We use it to create traffic in Multi-Class races, if you’re simulating LMP1 and GTE for example.
Will this be fixed soon? It’s strange that such a bug made it into release version.
Traffic makes it so much better, I mean who wants to race 1 v 1 for hours.
This is not a bug. This has just not been added. Like many, many other things.
Now and then a few friends just want to jump in and play in a private lobby. We used to be able to turn on AI drivers to fill out the field and make the race more interesting. But it seems FM7 dropped that capability… Why?
Sticking to FM6 until this gets resolved.
I am experiencing the same bug.
A fix is needed ASAP.
Won’t let me turn on A.i. on Xbox in free play
Does anybody know if AI will ever be added to private matches? if so when?
Hello,
Thanks for the feedback on this. I have sent it over to the team to have a look. As of right now this is working as intended. I will let you guys know if I hear anything different.
Thanks,
This is the only way we have ever raced MP. Way to piss off your loyal customers. The fact that this was removed and no mention of it made is terrible. Plus you still have tooltips from FM6 talking about drivatars in private MP lobbies. Last T10 game I will ever preorder, might be the last I buy too.
+1 it needs to return.
I have been, as so many have, a huge Forza fan until this. You have so many long term customers complaining about this issue and many of us paid the 100 dollars in the excitement of this game, that if we are honest feels more like a beta than a full release. You don’t have the auction house ready, you give the forzathan to the PC players before the loyal Xbox fan base and you get rid of one of the main features which is we can play with a few of our friends and have plenty of other AIs to have fun with rather than trying to deal with a bunch of other online folks that either are just learning or are there to wreck you. After all that the answer you give us is your statement above which is not only a slap in the face but complete disrespect to all of us, especially those that have been around since the beginning. We don’t necessarily expect a date but damn, tell us something other than it is working as intended which I have to tell you, I don’t feel a lot of the game is really working as intended. You will never get my extra money again and to be honest, if this is how you are going to put out products and look the other way then it may be the last time you get any of my money and you have no idea how much that hurts to say, let alone even think about.
This cant be happening. WHY WOULD YOU LEAVE THIS OUT?!!
They want to promote hopper racing over private lobbies. Turn 10 was also supposed to finally put in a system that penalized rammers in multiplayer, but alas that was also forgotten. Last time I blow $100 on a preorder. Oh, wait. You already have my money.

It’s obviously not a bug and saying ‘It’s working as intended’ is just a pure disappointment. The selling point in previous games was that I could fill a grid with AI with me and my friend but now its the two of us circling a track, and it can get very boring very quickly.
I agree with pykcherryghost it needs to come back, why would it be intended not not have AI?
I know there is a lot of bugs and glitches in this game, but no AI in multiplayer races is the biggest let down for me. We need this added back to multiplayer!
Wow… well this is the last time a I ever open up my wallet for another forza. What a let down. Time to move on.
Project cars 2 is looking ok same with GT.
O well can’t win them all i guess.
