gorey

Honestly at this point i would be extremely surprised if we got a patch at all.

That's because the AI sucks at fuel management, and many times are on fuel saving mode at the end of a race.

I'm still waiting for the forums to magically go offline again, so they can ignore the problems like last year.

R&D is not only boring to do, but royally sucks that you have to start each season with a gimped car while the AI doesn't. Also, maybe i want to do One Shot qualifying!!!  If i stick to an entire season of  OSQ'ing, i'll be stuck with a gimped car for the entire season. It pretty much forces you to play Long weekend on any races that have R&D. Feature should be removed. It's not fun.

Apparently it's led to no lockups either.....

I don't know what you guys are smoking, but the AI hasn't gotten any better. Infact i would go so far as to say they haven't done anything at all to the AI. They exhibit the exact same behaviour as they did in 2013.  Sure they seem faster this year, but that's mostly a function of the player suffering from increased wheelspin while the AI doesn't.

I can completely miss my braking points and still get the car slowed down and turned in without locking up the brakes. It just doesn't seem right.

No. A car that is heavier for example will reduce Speed more rapidly when off the throttle..... Murax. Inertia. Look it up. :)

No.

First off, I'm a wheel user and use no driving aids. Now with that out of the way.. How does a car that is heavier this season, and has less downforce, and paired with tires that are across the board harder than last year's tires handle sooooooooooooooo much better on turn entry and can stop on a dime with next to no lockups? Can someone answer me that? After about 8 hours behind the wheel of this release, my final verdict is that this year's game is a complete mess.

They should remove the R&D completely.  It's boring and im tired of starting the beginning of each season with a gimped car.

I raced in an online series for awhile. But that was only once a week. I have no desire to race with random people, so 90% of my gameplay is against the AI.The AI in previous games was HORRIBLE at driving side-by-side. Both vs the player and other AI cars. I just want to know if the AI has grown some **** and doesn't lift off the gas 200m before the turn if someone is along side of them. Make us work for the pass like in real life.

... and isn't atleast 1-2 seconds faster on the hardest difficulty. I don't see the point in buying it.
