Forza Motorsport General Discussion Thread

[pclark06]

Good to see alot of people playing and enjoying Forza motorsport. Myself included, hopefully more news and a road map will be great. Also wouldn’t mind some older tracks back through Forza’s history. Good on turn 10 for sticking with the game and thank you community at GT planet for all the great posts too 🥳 🚗 ❤️

FM23 has really started to find itself over the last few months or so as a game and it's really cool to see.

They updated Update 16 with the bug fixes. The AI difficulty makes sense now

Updated AI difficulty for lower difficulty levels? To what? What did they do?

I guess make them more consistent. So each level from 1-8 the AI feel a little bit more challenging then the last level. I could be wrong, they should have been more specific though.

I think the AI has reverted back to what it was when the game was released. I'm doing the career races on level 5 which before the last update was challenging to win races but now I'm back to my practice times being 3-4 secs better that the whole field, winning by 10-15 secs and the AI is brake checking in odd places like they used to. Not sure what has happened.

These AI inconsistencies is so weird

To me it felt like it was inconsistent across PI levels. I run at level 5 but level 5 in P was not the same as it was in B for example. Level 5 in P felt more like 6 or even 6.5. But I ran the BMW LMDh in a race over the weekend at 5 and it was more like it is in the lower levels. I need to run some other P cars to see if it's more normal across the entire class.

I run Ai at 4, and they went from somewhat decent to completely oblivious to my existence. I've been rear ended an awful lot since the update.

Really enjoying playing Forza Motorsport a lot more and driver level 910 now 😁 there’s a lot of potential here and hope for some dlc one day too.

I was finding the variance in AI from event to event frustrating so this is my current method for the monthly events. I set it to max 8 for practice and tune my car, gives me a laptime goal to know my car is likely competitive. Then I will turn down the difficulty while selecting my grid spot, usually if it says my finish will be 2-4 that is a good level of challenge, usually in the AI 5-7 range depending on what AI lap times it spits back at me. Sometimes my only option start in the middle to battle towards the front but other times its more fun to start towards the front with higher AI and have to defend the position while trying to gain the last few spots. Not perfect but it keeps me from dominating races while also making sure I can be competitive at the front.

Level 910 is awesome! What’s your favorite car or track so far? I would love to see some classic cars or legendary tracks in future DLC too.

Thats actually not a bad idea.My biggest gripe is with the inconsistence of the AI,i dont mind if they are consistently good or bad but to have a race when sometimes they are either or is pretty frustrating.Without doing the comparison bit,GT7 AI might not be the best but at least they will race you for a while,and then drop back a bit.lol.But not too many punts up the rear to ruin your race. 👍
