Too easy, it even seems a bug

Hi,

the game is fantastic, but it’s extremely easy. You can win races easily in the hardest difficulty level even if you don’t know the track.It’s so easy that it seems a bug. Will it be addressed in future updates?

  • 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.

    The funny thing is they can never seem to get the balance quite right. I agree it is way too easy, however id rather it was this than cheap rubber band AI which is so annoying. Hopefully they will tweak it, but thats the least of their problems. Most people arent going to complain its too easy. They need to fix the sound first as its the biggest thing taking away from the immersion. The sound in Grid 2019 was superb!

    Oh and at least they have replays this time, unlike Dirt 5 which was shocking!

    @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
