GT Sophy AI is a cheating snob

[CopperySinger]

Somebody has to tell the truth and I'm going to tell it. I have observed for at least the past year; Sophy cheats regularly in two tracks 24 hour Lemans and Nordschleife.


1) on straights sophy make dirty passes plowing hard into the front of my car before fully passing me shoving me off
2) on straights sophy catches up to me and rams (fishtails) my rear to spin me out
3) no matter how fast I race to leading pole position sophy AI teammates randomly cram/block me to slow my progression.

watching the replays I notice Sophy AI make quick unrealistic speeds around corners without reasonable braking to catch up with me

A seemingly scripted scenario I typically start around mid to last position and after around 25% of the race I safely make it to 2nd place but the first place AI is a mile away and I could never catch up or I catch up but Sophy rides my bumper to just about the end of the race and spins me out at the last corner! SMH THIS AI IS GARBAGE!

As your console records everything it sees, it would not have been difficult to show this behaviour in video form so that we don't have to take your word for it.

This, in particular, is hard to visualise:

on straights sophy make dirty passes plowing hard into the front of my car

Odd use of "snob" too.

I have never seen that behavior from the AI. Are you sure you're not trying to block the AI from passing you?

1. Definitely. All the time. Instead of slotting in in front of me, Sophy will regularly move into me before the pass is completed.

This is exactly what I’m talking about.

I do concur number 1 as well. On top of that, I hate Sophy's dive bombing behavior. This is especially distracting when driving with H pattern shifter. Regardless of how far ahead you are of the car behind you, if you take the open approach to a corner and want to balance the tail braking with smooth heel-and-toe, Sophy has no other mode than to dive inside, either hitting your inside back corner, pushing into your side or running way too deep into the corner if somehow you manage to evade. Nothing but Max, all the time.

Oh how I miss the first Sophy demo version, with the absolute awareness of what they can and can not do.
