Demolition Derby 6?

What happened with the artificial intelligence of FM6?

This post should have been under “Something needs to be done about Wreckers in career and free play races”…

Since I installed NASCAR Expansion pack and may '16 update, drivatars have gone wild! There is always wreckage in the first turn. Cars run into me with no fear. They do nothing to avoid wrecking their own cars. Drivatars make stupid crashes in front of me and ruin my races. I decided to play with superficial damages instead of simulation because I couldn’t finish races because of others. I also restart races very often.

Has FM6 became Demolition Derby 6?

Or maybe it’s just a preview of the next expansion pack : FM6 Demolition Derby

Under difficulty there is a option to make the ai more violent. I know its in the NASCAR Career but I haven’t looked to see if it is also in the regular career mode.

I feel the complete opposite I want drivitars to be more aggressive. They just hand their position to you if you come within 10 feet of them.

@ D Silvaru, I respect your opinion. I guess everyone has its own gamer/driver style. Remember the purpose of gaming is to have fun. And in my case, I have no fun when I am being wrecked from every side. It makes me want to go back to FM5 or Project Cars.

So, instead of having a yes or no choice for aggressivity, maybe there should be a aggressivity scale bar! It could range from “gentlemen” on one side to “destroy” on the other.

What do you think about that?

Drivatar are to slow on unbeatable on ovals and race tracks. I’m a average player and I can beat the most easily. On oval races you must run the basic setups if you don’t wont lap the complete field. The strange things is that the ai suddenly slows down. 20 laps the run good pace and then they slow down.

I think it’s more realistic this way…realistic towards the online play, not towards realism!

Turn 10 should be able to fix crashing quite easily. If you play any other racing game (project cars or gt6) they all have a clear penalty system for crashing and cutting. Making online fair and actually fun. THE NEXT UPDATE NEEDS A PENALTY SYSTEM.

Making online fair and actually fun. THE NEXT UPDATE NEEDS A PENALTY SYSTEM. F6 is supposed to be a competitive battleground for legit racers who want the energy of a close pack of skilled racers. Its not supposed to be looking behind you every time you brake for a corner because someone could be blazing at you at full speed to send you flying and they take the corner perfectly. With a penalty system that nefarious person that we all have seen many times will be stuck at pitting speed and ghosted for 5-10 seconds, letting the victim get even farther away and continue his race.

I agree AI is out of control. You know it is the same in apex also. With no multi player in apex, who in the world trained them? Because they drive awful in both. I wonder what is going on, because I know Triton should not be a basher, but his AI crashes me all the time. Also I have other racers on my friends list and I know they are clean racers, I get bashed by them too. Some sort of training maybe?.. Not very well liked here.
