EA Staff (Retired)Has it to do with applying the most recent patch 1.06 on exisiting saves? Kinda weird:
Imola, 103 AI Difficulty: Grand Prix Mode (Alpine, Alonso): Could follow the Mercedes and was easily best of the rest.
Imola, 98 AI Difficulty: MyTeam Season 2 (on par with the Mclaren at the top of the Performance Charts); I can barely match the upper midfield runners. Not even talking about Mercedes and Mclaren at the front.
I also tested Imola in a driver career (Mclaren, 103 AI) and i was not as fast as Norris but i was somewhere around him/at the right place considering the car i was in.
MyTeam seems to be the most difficult game mode for some reason. The AI is insane. Even when i lower the difficulty by 5 clicks which is supposed to be like half a second/lap.
That makes sense, especially when the Personal Stuff did not work prior to 1.06, so a boost is to be expected. The difference though is still very unenjoyable.
@Meza994I assume you mean MyTeam, not Career Mode - Career Mode doesn't have department personnel updates that affect the drivers directly, only Aero/Engine/Chassis/Relibability component updates.
This is probably the crux of the whole issue, there is no consistency between modes - I always do a normal GP for a few laps at my next Career Mode track to set the AI level and get my eye in for the track, and it seems fine, I am able to overtake cars and make up places.
But then, Career Mode comes and I am unable to pass anyone even if I have DRS and ERS, I barely gain on my own teammate by the end of the straight despite running lower wings than the AI setup.
But someone who only plays a game mode where this issue isn't prevalent tells people to get good and stop complaining because they don't understand it.
