In the endurace the situation is really out of end, if you start in 15 only 4/5 end the race. Pls make that if a player quit his car will be driven by ia (maybe max difficulty) because an endurace race with 3 player with 40 second distant each is really boring
If multiplayer drivatars are getting added at some point, a system like this would be great!
Could go one step further, and if a player disconnects the AI takes over, but the player could reconnect and take control of the car again. F1 does this, GRID does this.
As we know people often leave the race rather than finishing it making race a little bit “empty” and personally from me killing a immersion, so what about replacing disconnected players with drivatars just like they take control of your car after finishing a race. I think this would make race more alive.
Hello, for me, it is sounding like a nice idea.
Personally, I believe, that the replace-ai should be at the same niveau/skill level like the driver, that is left. You have a skill-rating, so it should be possible to translate it in ai-rating (from single player the difficulty).
In my point of view, it would be a bit strange, if you drive an half hour, someone 15 seconds or more behind you leaves and then his car steered by ai overtakes you after 3 laps.
Hello, I share your opinion.
AI-Drivers could work as placeholder.
Following is in an other rail of the same railroad:
By some shooter games, I know punishments for leaving. You can not join the next battle for some minutes (around 4-6) or you earn less points than normal. Probebly this could be an other solution for the Problem.
In our context, you would have to wait one race before you can join a new race or earn less credits (50% for example). Also possible would be a punishment in safety rating (from A to B).
This is posted here, because it is the same intention, but if we drivers want this, it should be an own issue.
