Before yesterday’s update, there was no chance in the Green Hell that I would run the 'Ring in career mode. I was terrified of what would happen in the first corner.
But now…today, I just had the most intense racing experience on the ‘Ring that was unbelieveably clean (except for 1 incident, but it was something rewind could fix), way cleaner than any online lobby race on said track that I’ve experienced. Granted, I could’ve been lucky, but Turn10 did state they fixed the Drivatars traffic mechanics in the update. There was scraping of paint between Drivatars ( I lost some once I finished due to my own Drivatar missing the braking point and hitting the wall :’( ), and the occasional loss of control by one car and into the wall he/she went, but they didn’t immediately try to jump back onto the track. There was one instance where a P1 lost control and careened into a wall (painful to see, even in a game) and it just stayed against that wall until the group of cars,including me, went by and it had enough room to get back on cleanly.
It was absolutely phenomenal. Anyone else experience this?
And this is exactly how Drivatars will continue to evolve and, as a result, Forza will be recognized as the game to have revolutionized the single-player racing experience. I applaud Turn 10’s efforts to keep working at it and to not secede from this system when the bellyaching kicked in.
YES! So refreshing that Turn 10 stuck by their vision. Extremely refreshing to see that.
Halo 4 was great until they caved in to cater to the very few and the very vocal tryhards. It just flat out ruined the game. Honestly scared Halo 5 will be rubbish now.
I agree with the OP wholeheartedly. They are MUCH better. Turn one is always gonna be tight. But it’s no longer a crash derby where you have a 1 in 20 chance of coming out straight. The drivatars now act like clean, respectful, yet competitive racers. They will swerve to avoid running you off but they’ll also push and rub with you if you don’t mind it. Rubbing, is ok. Some say ‘rubbing is racing’. And that’s about as bad as it gets now. Great job T10! This is a major accomplishment.
Great! I knew the concept of drivatars would be novelling once it would be done right! Makes me looking forward even more to drivatars in Forza Horizon 2!
if we had a good multiplayer we wont Need the ai. thats all wasted time. and i wish thiey never put energy in such a stupid Feature.
i pay a lot of Money to Play online against real People cause thats the best way to Play some games.
and the People who like to race against ai just dont have the right online experience or are just to bad and dont Need a good ai.
and a Revolution in singleplayer? lol lol lol rofl. some People are so easy to satisfied. Revolution lol
I play both career and online and usually enjoy both. Now what part of your description of people who like to race against AI is relevant to me? In short don’t stereotype.
In my opinion games need both good single player and good mp. It is also often the case that different people work on the different modes so there is no need for there to be a tradeoff between one and the other.
but for drivaters you Need Internet!and i raced against 15 of them in a private Lobby and had Connection Problems. hmmmm strange never had this in normal mp.
x2. I am mostly in that boat as well. I do play a lot of rivals, but not lobbies. I have only spent maybe a total of 4 hours of game time in online lobbies, and over half of it was for the 24hr 'ring achievement.
I’ve never seen u on a leaderboard so maybe you should go race those AI drivers. To call people bad because they race the AI is just idiotic. The game has always been career mode and online play. Look at titanfall it had no single player and a lot of people complained about that.
Look in production or Serial rivals.
i am fast enouph.
but i am interested in racing not in fast laps. so i only tune for Special Events with cars that match.
in forza f5 i dont have any oppertunity to do this and it should be other things done than the drivaters.
and to call the carreer of forza a singleplayer i think i could Count the tutorial of tintanfall as singleplayer too.
come one dont blame me. i just want to help you out
and i dont call anybody bad. i just say they dont have the right expirience. AI could be as good as Mario andretti but the thrill to race against real humans who have the same Level like you over severel rounds perhaps with a good tyre wear is .indispensible and i think that everybody who had this Kind of racing understand what i try to say.
