AI is too slow under safety car

Recommended Posts

ive been meaning to mention this like a week ago but damn... my first time going through this i didnt even catch the safety car queue and right now im currently going through this again and im behind rosberg and we're 15+ seconds above our delta.. and its only been 1 lap under safety car.. 

also the AI constantly brakes randomly for no reason under safety car and on formation laps..

edit: another lap has gone by and we're now 30 seconds above our delta

Yes they somehow stop dead on last corner when catching sc first time and find the ai abit quick on formation lap fingers crossed it gets fixed.

they are keeping their brakes warm.
doubt it. they brake mid corner when theres an actual braking zone not far away

Mid corner when there is a braking zone not far away? If your mid corner then your at the end of a braking zone. Not that the safety car goes fast enough for you to have a braking zone to use. They speed up a little and then brake hard simulating they are warming their brakes.

when i say mid corner i mean like the right hander at australia turn 8 which turn 9 isnt very far away also in the middle of the left right chicane in australia they will brake before exiting the chicane, its annoying

i think the AI is still using delta times, when they supposedly shlould try to catch up the safety car, but also the safety car itself it too slow , and the VSC delatas are too fast.  These are balancing issues that are easy fixable imo, so hopefully codies sort this out in the first major patch

Something needs to be fixed ASAP with the AI and the SC.  The game is brilliant, best CM F1 game to date, but this AI nonsense under SC needs to be addressed. They brake for no reason. I've experienced 4 SC situations and never have I been able to catch up to the field. Isn't one of the benefits of a SC deployment to allow the field to bunch back up?

Also cars can't overtake under safety car yet as i was catching up to it which took ages by the way massa goes past me and i go from 8th to 9th, i took place back but was told to give it back. Surely codemasters know the rules of F1.
