Recommended Posts

Being hit from behind and spun ....  Every time I play 70% of the time , I get hit and spun from AI behind... This didn't happen in F1 2014 , F1 2013 and so on... Also the sound of player car very weak..... 

Thank you for listening to us fans...

As for getting hit and spun from behind, that only happens if I pull a Verstappen by weaving around on the straights to keep them behind me. Only once or twice have the AI just misjudged and rammed me up the back, and I mean, that happens in real F1 too

only happins to me when I block them (not meaning to or on purpose) or weave or drift left and right down the straights. Also on tight turns on exit if I block or weave coming out of a hair pin If I'm having a hard time getting on throttle. Allmost everytime I can see in the replay that I am the one the moved not them and they was simply trying to get beside me to race me.

Same again here, I only have that issue when I make a vary late move, or flashback as it does change the ai pattern slightly when you flachback. I find in the game you can't do the aggressive moves on the straight like the barichello, Schumacher 2010 hungary, the ai just won't move like that.

Hmm, then I have to look at my driving I guess, if not happening to others  , maybe I need to look at my driving , thanks Guys for the input

it's mostly luck of the draw(whether you get spun)

I'm willing to bet it's not your driving, I've been complaining about this since the release of 2015. CM answer to complaints of AI too passive.

I have 2014 and can't seem to find the audio for the pit crew manager voice.  The audio is low and I can't hear the voice. I went into settings and tried adjusting the audio but it didn't work.

Thanks for the help

2013 was definitely too far the other way since you could weave around with them a car length behind and they'd just get spooked and brake.

Now if they're within like a half meter or so and you move they ram you, which is somewhat accurate since at that point they've committed. You can weave about at that point. If you race cleanly as in real F1 you'll be totally fine

Your driving style is probably perfect online, but against ai u need to be more gentle, almost like it's their first ever time driving a formula one car, after taking the step on from F3

Strongly disagree about AI. 2010-2014 if the AI car hit you they would spin which made no sense at all. Now you actually have to use the mirrors/look behind and not cut them up like players used to be able to. Treat the AI as if any contact with them would damage your car (as it is for the most part in real). Treat them as if it were a real race rather than a game and it's very rare they will hit you unless they make a mistake. (Which just adds to the game I think that they can make an error and hit you or other AI drivers!) I'd actually promote making contact more sensitive both ways so that even the slightest touch can damage the car.

As for AI aggression, again, it's great as it is now. They actually go for a gap and don't back out as often which is lightyears better than how they were in 2010-14 where they would never try and outbrake you and would back out of every battle with you. If anything, a little more aggression (controlled aggression) would be nice. Something between how 2015 had it and how it is in 2016.

Just like others posting here, whenever the AI makes contact with me I'm swearing and blinding at my TV - adamant that I raced cleanly. Then I look back at the replay and 99% of the time it's actually me not being fully aware of my surroundings and giving the AI no space.

I'd have less problem if I had triple monitors to check my blind spots, but I'm on PS4 :neutral:

But generally I'm very happy with the AI, definitely improved compared to previous titles!

Most of the times I experience this during the start. From the start I drive a straight line but no matter what, I get pushed of. This is not because of giving the AI enough space, they just run you off. I don't know if this has to do with me having a bad start, but is surely is frustrating. Only solution is to qualify last :(

I've never experienced this before.  Does this happen into turn 1 or just on the straight? I honestly rear end the AI more often than getting rear ended by being way too optimistic into turn 1.

Just on the straight. I experienced this during our last LAN party. Seven friends and the field filled with AI. I was hit almost every start on the straight by one of the AI. You should almost think it has to do with my driving style or bad starts or being to careful, but never experienced it this often. Otherwise, the moments I had this happen in the past is like others say, when you overtake or defend in a not legit way.

Wait are we talking like offline Career mode or online AI? From watching the Youtubers online race and stuff, it is pretty evident that the online AI is quite different from the offline AI. But I think it's more or less agreed that doesn't happen in offline. 

Also, for what its worth, what platform are you on?

Here something very Odd
Been playing on Xbox one with Wheel (when not tried from work) or controller (when very tried) , on Expert setting... Yesterday started Russia 25% race 6 times, every time before even reaching turn 1 , AI took me out....  
This morning , there was a sale at Target(US store) , so I bought a PS4 , I don't have a wheel for PS4 yet...  Playing Russia on same setting Expert, play 3 lap race 8 times, AI didn't touch me or took me out, it was awesome just racing and having fun....  

Very weird and Odd issue.... Need to test more.... what's going on...  I am playing no different on PS4 as I am on Xbox One

That is very strange. Might be worth trying an uninstall and reinstall of the game on XB1. 

That being said, I just played Russia today, and the AI are quite poor at the start in Russia. They either squeeze you into the inside of the kink on the pit straight, or run you off the outside of the kink. Theres almost a 50/50 of a SC in the opening laps of the Russian GP. Still though, haven't been hit up the back by them.

That did it Pijin...... Not only the AI not hitting me like crazy on every start, the game feel better, runs better and I had some shitty handling through my TX wheel, even that's fixed.......  If you are in California I buy you dinner :)

Now I have F1 2016 on Xbox one, PS4 and PC... WOW

It can be a bit ridiculous at times. Look at this video, I'm driving down the straight, going dead straight, and Giovinazzi (I've modded the game xD) just drives straight into my rear spinning me. I was lucky to only puncture a tyre. 
The time stamp in the link didn't work properly, skip to 6 minutes 30. I also show a few replays once I get into the pits, including his on board.

Got the same problem. For example, starting from the bottom part of the grid I'm constantly rammed from behind). I would suggest developers to able user to set level of AI aggressivity, in order to better balance gameplay
