Barry thanks for your Christmas message. I hope you and your team have a great break. It would be wonderful if you could answer some of the comments that are put on the forum. For example explain the one above. How and why did it happen.

I have just finished 3 races all against the same rival. That’s 3 in a row with NO time in between each race First race his trophy score was 4444. I won and was awarded 35 🏆. Next race his trophies was 4469. I won again awarded 35 🏆. Next race his 🏆s was 4489. I won again. How is his 🏆 going up when he has lost three in a row. Because Codemasters put hundreds of bots in to mess us up. Sick to death of it. If you are going to put bots in at least make it look good. You fools

It’s the fake rivals that screw you up. I can’t really tell what’s going on with the AI cars it’s too random for me. Codmasters have admitted to using fake rivals. These are races you can’t win. They are there to peg back your progress and encourage you to spend. Remember this is a business to them a business that wants to keeps you hooked and spending in a way that keeps you in the dark. As you approach the boundaries of different levels you will get more and more fake rivals to keep you playing and to reach your next goal. You have no way of telling how real or fake races you actually have. Take a look at these three screen shoots all races I lost. Look at the difference in PI. I made no mistakes and they were all qualy races. The pace of these rivals were so quick even with my PI higher the rival out paced me on straights and corners. It’s annoying but just part of the game. You will always progress but only at the pace Codemasters will allow.

Ok so a few months ago before the latest up date when I had less trophy points and lower PI. I did a single qualy race to find my best set up. I did it at Austria and my PB is now listed at 1:03:326. So do the same now with the new update and more trophies and higher PI set up the same way. My best is 1:05:459. Same on all circuits. I can’t get near any of my PB’s. Ok I get it if the update changed things so the lap times are no longer achievable but please reset my PB’s or give me the choice to do it. Part of the fun is bettering yourself. My current trophy points is 5098 and pi 2070 on that set up

So many times I have a race and think how did I lose that. The car I was racing must have much higher pi or a different set up. I always look at my rivals PI after a race. Only to discover that the set up shape is the same but my PI is over 300 higher. So how oh how can the car out drag me on straights. It makes no sense. Trust me here this is not racing lines or speed carried out of corners it happens so much and I’ve played so many races. It happens too often for it to be my mistakes. My PI is 2070 set up with a bias to power and weight. Can someone giver a reason. My guess that are AI rivals.

Have you ever noticed your rival that flashes once just after the waiting for the opponent screen. This is an AI car. One of two things happen. You win the race dead easy by 3 or 4 secs providing you don’t mess up. Or you loose by the same amount even if you drive a clean lap. I’ve been passed on the last straight on several circuits with over a second lead by a car going like a rocket. So sick of the AI cars that peg you back.
