I believe the main issue will still exist which is that you cannot change the actual AI difficulty so it will still be locked at 35. Might be mistaken though, but even with +100 Tech Level modifier at the moment, it is still way too easy.
- ScarDuck142 years agoLegend@ReimvomSchleim Can’t really comment after only doing the first single player race at Austria and being around 7 seconds a lap faster than the Ai I went straight back to my team. But I would hope some significant balancing has been done. The good thing that I do like it that if you use the modifier to make it harder you also get a reward increase. When I read the post was a happy surprise to see they have added that

@ScarDuck14 I agree with you, however i have not really noticed a real improvement in the rewards even when using +100 Tech Level modifier so far😅 maybe it's just more cash and more XP but you don't get any more items at the moment.

Just tested this in a 25% Series event around Canzda and it was still too easy, even with +150 Tech Level modifier I lapped half the grid once. At least it's better than lapping the whole grid twice I guess😂 we need to be able to change the AI difficulty as it is locked at 35 atm.
- @ReimvomSchleim Crazy how they used their very limited resources to balance F1 World over some very needed bug fixes and other balancing changes, and didn’t even get it right. Wonder if they tested it even once.

Agreed. I mean this is a really not a hard issue to fix. The option to change AI difficulty is literally in the game, why is it greyed out for F1 World events, it does not make any sense to me. With other bugs I understand that I takes a longer time but this one, come on, just enable us to change the actual AI difficulty as we can do in every other mode.

Going by how badly balanced the career mode has been since 2020, I'd say the last time they tested the game at the very latest was 2019.They just continue to ignore the community and avoid fixing issues or balancing things we actually want and waste their time on "fixing" a gimmicky feature no one asked for in the first place.
From what I remember about World, it's going to take a lot more than an extra fifty points to the tech level slider to make that AI competitive. It's so restrictive too! Like I don't need to do a handful of missions to get acclimated to Australia, which we ALL are well-versed with from when it kicked off the season. Lemme choose what circuits to take missions on. Just a goofya** mode that had so much potential but was clearly made for children who didn't know what F1 was before Netflix introduced them.
The only worthwhile feature of that entire mode is the six save slots in the livery editor so I can spitball future livery designs for those s2-s6 of MyTeam that I'll never get around to.

Seconded, still too easy and already at 1k tech Level it is currently pointless to me to play that series or Events. Not sure if it generally makes sense nevertheless..... Racing random namens and ai using namens from Steam friendslist... Scenario and replay Modes are good and they don't use tech Level 👍

I agree, no point for me to play those Series either as I've reached Tech Level 1000 and my goals are also locked. The events you mentioned are quite cool though, even the short Bonus races for License A/B + Time Trial challenge are quite fun as well. Wish they had more of these.
