Re: Too easy, it even seems a bug

@DJ_Englishman The second to high difficulty (only because i drive automatic).
So assists are off,except one but that slider is set to 1 (can't remember which assist)
In career it's better,but just slightly.

    @Konanbelgium @DavidHurt2  Thanks. Hopefully they'll tweak it post launch as needed, unless it's part of a natural AI difficulty/time progression curve? Especially as plyrs can upgrade too, and I'd much prefer a challenge!

    @DJ_Englishman not part of natural AI progression, because you can try it in custom race. Just set up a custom race with legend difficulty setting and try

    Hey all,

    If you open the game menu while you're in the race, what difficulty does it show? I saw another report recently that mentioned the game menu showed it was on Hard difficulty, even if it was set to Legend before the race started. 

    I'm curious if that might be what you're running into as well. 

  • I started this thread during the 10 hour trial. After a week playing the final version, finished the story mode and working on the professional career and multiplayer, I must say that AI is really tough. Really really tough. Don’t know why of how, but this is solved.

    @DavidHurt2 Yes the AI is very fine now, especially if you upgrade your car to max :D

    But on the Drift Events, the AI Points should be much higher, they are to low, to easy.

    Thank you for the updates!

    Has anyone else noticed a change in the AI difficulty since this thread went up? 

  • @EA_Kent It seems to depend on which track imo.
    And how much you tune your car.
    But in general they seem to be ok.
  • There seems to be a problem with the difficulty if you have previously run a multiplayer race. If you run a career race afterwards, the difficulty level will be taken from the multiplayer race and not the difficulty level you set in the options menu. You than have to leave the event and start again ( not just a restart, that's not enough ). Only then will the level of difficulty set in the options take effect. 

    I've tested it several times and it's quite easily reproducible.

    I play on PS4 Pro.

    Sorry for my english, it's not my native language.

    @Nebraska72 

    Thank you for the info! If you don't play another multiplayer race after that does the difficulty option keep working correctly? 

  • Yes, everything seems fine then.

  • I also fear that upgrading my favorite cars make them too strong for certain racing tracks even with legendary AI …

    and upgraded cars cannot get restored to default which is sad too
