Ai strategies/results are better when simulating

Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

1.       A detailed description of the issue. Please include any error codes here. 

I started a proper myteam career only a week or so ago and have completed a couple of races so far, 4 out of 7 races I have finished in the points because the Ai is usually on a 2 stop strategy and for some reason aren't able to overtake the slower cars. You would most likely tell me to up the difficulty but I test the difficulty per track in gp mode and my teammate (Matsushita in myteam) is usually about 10 seconds behind me at the end of the race so I would say the difficulty is just right. 

Best example for me was Spain where Vettel was in front of me when he just pitted and got behind Stroll, Vettel was stuck behind him for a couple of laps untill Stroll pitted. After that Vettel flew away from me while setting the fastest lap of the race a few times in a row. So that showed he did have the pace but somehow he couldn't get past stroll, even if Vettel was running more wing than Stroll he should still be able to pass Stroll because of how fast the Ferrari engine is. These kind of things are ruining my experience with this game because as the 2nd worst car on the grid you shouldn't be finishing inside the points even if it is a crazy race.

I started simulating a few races in a row to see if it was better and almost everyone is on a 1 stop most of the time, depending on the track of course but at that point they actually still finish in around the position where they should. I also noticed there is no retirements when simulating, when I race myself there is atleast 2 retirements every race.

2.       Platform

Xbox One X
3.       What version of the game you are using (Shown on the start screen in the bottom left corner of the screen) 

This is still happening after the most recent 1.08 update.
4.       Game-mode? 

MyTeam career
5.       What are your replication numbers? Minimum test attempts are 4. Please also add EXACT replication steps for us to try too.

It has happened in pretty much every race I've done. 
6.       What troubleshooting have you attempted? Please always try to attempt to fix the issue 

Simulating makes them do just 1 stop most of the time, depending on the track and tyre wear of course but if I race myself they just go for 2 stops most of the time.
7.       What peripherals are you are using (gamepad, wheel make & model etc) 

Xbox One S controller
8.       Any screenshots or video of the issue? If the video is long, please include a timestamp for when the issue appears. 

None.

I’ve also noticed this. The AI either do 2/3 stops when really should be doing 1/2 stops. Needs addressing
