I finally figured out why the players car is so slow in a straight line!

I finally figured out why the AI is so overpowered in career mode and my team mode, and why they get a bigger advantage the longer you get into your career mode. There is something wrong with how th...

@ImpartialCross06There’s a number off reasons why the Ai feels all over the place in this years game.

Firstly by design Codemasters make the Ai harder year on year. I set the Ai 10-20 points Lower compared to last year. This year has definitely seen a bigger jump.

Also Tyre temps. Ai are not effect the same way human drivers are. Mainly they are not effect by carcass temps. So if you set tyre temps to carcass and surface. Ai always have their temps at optimal. Human players are significantly handicapped on tracks where managing temps is an issue. Such as Hungary where they melt or in wet conditions where it takes humans forever to heat up the tyres . Personally I just use surface only now so I’m on a level playing field to the Ai on every track. And don’t need to adjust the Ai.

As for Ai on being funky in other occasions there’s another thread that explains that brb I’ll go and find it

@ScarDuck14 Yeah, I really hope they don't make it any harder this next year, hehe. But they probably will. I know about the tyre temps they always seem to be on 96 degrees for the AI, that's why on pc I just modded 100 percent grip on all temperatures both on carcass and surface. Because I feel even if you play with fixed carcass temperature the surface temperature can still skyrocket mid corner and you can lose the car which I find really annoying. At least in this years game they added modifier that when you do downforce upgrades the tyres also get better temperature management so in theory the tyres should not overheat more when you upgrade you car more if they balanced it right. I don't understand why they don't add an option to also disable surface temperature.
