I‘ve been busy. Kaz said to wait and we did. He delivered on what have to be the best AI in the franchise. He mentioned in the gtp interview, the AI aren’t perfect, that’s true, but for us solo players, this patch IS the game changer. Just the option for the AI to use the RH thru to Wet compounds, has transformed game play. No longer do the AI spin out everywhere.
I did notice a bug where, if an AI gets hit/spun off course/track, that car’s programming glitches. The car sometimes keeps going off course for no reason and lingers at the tail end of the field. This happened at a Spa race and a test race at Nurb GP. Haven’t noticed anywhere else.
Anyway, for the videos below(they’re about 20 minute replays), it’s just been phenomenal. A real joy to set up and play this game. Since these videos, I’ve adjusted all my cars’ performance. So, they’re all closer, in their respective classes.
The Goodwood race was awesome to watch. Got to see how the cars were being ”driven” and the crazy AI battles, as I was understanding the physics of the ZG. The Fuji race, was the first full test in changing conditions. I was overjoyed to see not only the AI pit and change to grooved tyres, but pit again, when the dry line formed and cheekily, selected the
RS compounds!!! Good thing the economy changed for me to afford all the parts(bonus doing many Circuit Experiences days before).
Well, I’ll be gone for a good while playing solo. Hope y’all enjoy the game as it grows through its shelf life. Good stuff! Peace.
