Braking assist is not right and AI on legend are to good in practice and qualifying

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, don't know if it's just me but the braking assist just destroys my lap times and can't get good lap times in when it's practice and qualifying but in the race it's fine? The AI are to strong in practice and qualifying but in the race I've finished p1 twice in a toro rosso in just 6 races? Is this a glitch that codemasters will fix?

Do you mean braking assist or  ABS? The Legend AI doesnt really fight for positions when u are on the inside which is quite a shame i know. Try to not overtake 10 cars into turn 1. If you dont do that you will have  quite a race. They dont really attack that much either for some reason it always seems like they are to passive/scared. I hope the Legend AI gets patched because the Ultimates AI behaviour is really nice but they are just  to quick in qualifying 4 me.

I don't even know what abs is tbh but the problem is I have the braking assist on high and it brakes sometimes on straights and high speed corners such as abbey on silverstone and it's just so annoying and even when I do out an amazing lap in with the merc at Hungary I qualify p7 now that's not right, I've not got a proper setup on yet but it really is affecting me and yes legend AI is to quick in practice and qualifying but not in the race it's so weird

You should try to turn it off. Braking assist is always slower because it usually breaks when the dynamic line says so but there are  corners where u have to break a little bit later (break pressure etc not to mention.)

I've tried to do it but I can't, in f1 2015 it was a lot better like a lot so don't see why it's different

Brake assist shouldn't even be a thing, you have dynamic line which tells you when to brake so brake assist isn't needed.

You're beating legend AI with braking assist on? You're good, turn it off.

If the brake assist is not good enough for you, maybe try switch if off, leave ABS ON, and lower difficulty to expert ?
After a while you probably be able to switch back to legend.
Maybe you're right about the assist being better in f1 2015 than f1 2016, but I don't think this assis was aiming players who play in legend AI.

Couldn't agree with this more!  If you're up at legend standard then you've done well because the game is a lot tougher than last years!  It won't take long to learn, turn the assist off and ABS on and you'll be fine, a lad I work with has just done the same thing and it only took him an evening to get used to it...

People should begin with no assists at all. You will learn to drive anyway!

going to echo everyone here, just turn it off, eventually you will learn how to break.
use the racing line on if you really need to know where to break.

there is no try, only do.

Everyone should enjoy this game with whatever assists they want, it is a game after all. There is no right and wrong way to drive in single player as long as you enjoy the game.

@jammyjames what controller are you using? You could try braking assist low and brake yourself at 100 meter signs, you learn quickly enough where you can brake later or have to brake even earlier. Once you know the braking point for each corner you should be good to turn the assist off entirely.
