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

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.

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. 👍

Yeah, for some reason there seems to be this bug(?) in some of the series. Or is it intentional? I don't know. Seems strange to not letting us build our cars when the name of the career mode is builders cup.
Like the people above have mentioned you can still upgrade your car if you back out to your garage, but it's annoying for sure 🙄

A question for those of you who've been playing FM23 since it came out - how different is it now compared to when it launched? I tried to get into it when it first came out but ended up deleting it after a couple of weeks because the car modding system sucked so bad and the physics felt a little wonky to me. Have those areas had any noticeable updates?

The car modding systems in which you had to level to get to purchase parts? gone. While you still use points for parts (why?) you can use your in-game money to cover for parts if you come short.
As for the physics, hmm I would say they haven't changed much since launch, as most of the improvements have been on the graphics/sound/content areas. I do play with simulation steering (on gamepad) though and the game feels quite good.

That's kind of what I thought too. But it goes back to what I said a few days ago about upgrading race cars. I didn't look into upgrading the M8 yet but other race cars like some GT3 and older F1 cars you have to add race brakes. Shouldn't a race car already come with race brakes? I can half understand changing the air restrictor but what else should a race car need? I think the Audi R8 GT3 started out somewhere around R830 I think but fully upgraded it's about R883. Was R830 it's true GT3 spec? What are you upgrading it to? Super Duper Ultra GT3 or does Turn 10 just view it as being an upper level R class car in general and the divisions disappear except for free play?

We still don't seem to have any comment on whether or not the next patch will include a track. If they don't say anything until they post the news article 10 minutes before the patch releases, I don't think the response is going to be great and the negativity/disappointment will likely overshadow the rest of the stuff in the update.
There had to be some point where it slowed down a bit but with several tracks from FM7 still not ported over I was hoping it wouldn't be this soon.
I guess I'm a little spoiled as some other games I've played over the years have made very detailed patch notes that elaborate on exactly what was changed, and even explain the thought process behind the change and what they are hoping it will accomplish, how they settled on that specific change, and whether or not it will be monitored and potentially altered again in the future.
In previous games you had to run race brakes to get brake tuning, but thankfully this time around they made it available for sport brakes as well. It's a small thing, but a big positive as it opens up brake tuning for stock race cars, and means you have some choice in how you spend your PI points without losing the tuning options.
The next thing I'd like to see them do but will probably never happen is add some tuning to sport springs/dampers. Don't give them the full range of tuning like the race springs/dampers, but maybe something like 5 "clicks" per option (for example spring stiffness can be softest, soft, medium, stiff, stiffest). It would allow some simpler tuning options that would be great for league racing or for their "spec" tunes they make for public lobbies.

They still don't really seem to understand how to make good patch notes as many changes have been very vague.

Forza seems to consider carbon ceramic brakes as "race brakes" and just steel brakes as "sport brakes." Many race cars do not run carbon ceramic brakes, so in Forza they will have a race brakes upgrade, and lots of super cars that have carbon ceramics don't have any available brake upgrades. Kinda silly but it is what it is at this point.

Seeing Call of Duty get a "comprehensive" community update yesterday with a bunch of notes based on player feedback but getting radio silence from T10 to start 2025 leaves a sour taste in my mouth. I know the month isn't over yet but we are already just about halfway through this update and there's no mention of a track next month, no roadmap, no hot fixes, still unfinished business from last year and nothing to really give us a clue as to any plan or idea they have to start this year off. Slowly losing some faith in this game but trying to remain as patient as can be.

I think we would know if there was a track coming in February, so assume there isn't one. Would be good to get an updated roadmap prior to the next update though, including the position on outstanding items from the last roadmap (Creative Hub, changes to Single Player Builders Cup etc)

You're not spoiled until you get into the world of AMS2 Patch Notes. When presenting the 1.6 update. It took about all morning to get through this. This is how it should be done. Vagueness to just say words when the thing you say isn't even fixed is NOT cool. Like the Turn 10 claim that they "fixed AI braking in spots they shouldn't" (or however they worded it.)
