F1® 22 - Patch 1.10 Discussion Thread

I just finished 1-2 in my teams career just to find out my teammate went from P2 to DNF when he crossed the finish line. On the replay, it literally yeet him down in standings and his car just kept going like it was still a race. Just simple question, wtf?

I cannot invite people and people cannot join me via EA friends when I have crossplay enabled. When I disable cross play inviting Steam friends and joining will working again. I play on PC.

This problem I encountered after the latest 1.10 patch.

Too many friends is known. Haven't tried Xplay since 1.10, I shall look out for it.

1.11 should’ve fixed things but Xplay is still a crapshoot. Finding sessions or organising Xplatform lobbies is trying. 

EA have screwed the pooch.

No assists, AI difficulty at 78%, playing on PC with a wheel.
- AI launch speed is MUCH faster compared to the player no matter how well you launch. Multiple people on Steam forums are talking about the same problem. Video link:

Note that the tyre temperatures in that video are on the cold side (76-79 °C), which will be a contributing factor. Tyre warm-up is a much bigger factor in this game than last year. 

Havnt kept up with the thread so apologies if this has already been discussed. But how is everyone finding the AI in my team?  I see their  aggression was adjusted/fixed in the patch.  And  I’ve dominated  in both Hungary and Netherlands where normally I’ve Struggled beating them on 75- 80.  It looks as though I can now increase to 90Ish which is what i set the ai to at majority of tracks.   

Netherlands is one off my weakest tracks.  So took all  new parts as I was expecting to suck and finish poorly if at all.   But just won 50% race last to first.   

AI in my team races seems (the nature of engine penalties and new components making it hard to be sure) to have slowed down over all. So whereas I was at 70 at all tracks but Monaco, Baku, and Singapore, now 75 would be more correct. BUT I also found that the AI is faster than it should be in qualifying at Mexico and Brazil by about 5.

So to me it seems that the AI consistency when I raced on 1.07 is gone and we may be heading back to a seperate qualy and race AI, as well as track to track.

Is the gap between My Team and GP Ai closed? I recall someone saying the two have been diverging with each patch.

Did you have a custom setup on your car?

FYI, AI drivers also use ERS 😉 I had similar problem in Imola, couldn't pass Stroll (DC for Williams). But eventually, he didn't seem to have ERS any more and I could pass him with DRS and half of ERS after three laps 😉

You can also reduce difficulty, then whole pack slows down. As someone already mentioned in previous patch topics, there is no shame in doing so, you're playing alone so it doesn't matter 😉

The problem is that corner exit speed and difficulty setting don't match.

They behave like 75 on fast corners, AI is slow and boring in those sections. At the same time, they behave like 110 AI out of slow corners. They just blast out of it. And as your tyre gets worn out, your time gets worse with the laps, AI gets faster.

@ScarDuck14, I felt some difference towards the AI too. Not only its aggressiveness (which lowered by a decent amount) but also on its level. My doubt is: do we have more grip or is the low gear torque adjusted? Fact is that it's easier to follow now.

@AEF251 I felt the opposite. I did Bahrain, Saudi and Australia 100% races this weekend and the 3 had AI level at 85. Prior to the patch/hotfix I recorded them as 74/85/82. Also didn't noticed any difference from Qualy to Race other than the already existing prior patch/hotfix.
