AI Are Too Soft And Backout On Overtakes In Races.
Product: F1 22
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Summarize your bug AI backing off when I'm overtaking but still giving them space even if I'm on the very inside of a corner. Not fighting for position. Overly cautious in races. Playing in My Team solo player career on PS4.
Which area is the bug/glitch in? My Team
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Wheel to wheel racing, simply try overtaking the AI and see how extreme they back off and cost themselves time and positions. My Team career races. PS4.
What happens when the bug occurs? The AI almost come to a halt when overtaken or back off enough that they are no longer anywhere near you.
What do you expect to see? Personally, aggressive but fair AI, as long as there is space left the AI should always be fighting for position, not backing down, you overtake them and they try to stay with you and aim to regain the place back. This was okay in 2021 so something has caused a backfire here.
So its all in the sections. 2021 was okay, but something has caused the AI to be much too cautious when you overtake them, even with plenty of space, they are backing right off, rather than trying to keep or regain the position so taking position becomes too easy and they risk loosing more positions. The backmarkers and out/in lap cars in practice however have improved in getting out of the way, but possibly this is related to the issue? Perhaps the AI aren't separating these different scenarios well? Either way, please can you look into the AI being tougher on fighting for position. At the end of the day if players argue they are too aggressive, its up to the player and AI to both leave space on overtakes. Its a good lesson in clean wheel to wheel racing. Its always been the main thing separating F1 games from all the other racing games, the superior AI intelligence. That amazing wheel to wheel racing experience.
With thanks.
