He said it is more lifelike and faster with more aggression and potentially error as a result and yet you only focused on the fact that he isn't 100% satisfied with it. I'm sure they will keep working on it but that doesn't mean the current version isn't good.
That's really all I'm asking for. It just looks dumb, too. If there was damage, I would take out all the tail lights and try to race in peace.
....no joke.
I would add that if the AI makes contact (but not push you wide) with you in order to pass, I would be pleasantly surprised coming from a GT AI.
You obviously don't understand what i was talking about.
Yeah, and that listing has been up for nearly a couple of years now. It has a non-trivial language requirement - N3 Japanese isn't super high but it's also probably at least a solid year's worth of study for anyone who doesn't have it already, maybe more.
That's pretty much it though. If they wanted great AI for GT7 then they could have done it. It just would have cost them in terms of money and convenience.
What? Racing ettiquette is still a thing in other games. Having lower difficulty settings for less quick players is still a thing in other games.
Here, let me blow your mind with a solution to suit those people and hardcore racers.
Yeah the whole things a cop out, they have the resources but instead they have one guy employed full time for 15 years to do minor tweaks around the edges which is much more expensive and inefficient than poaching someone from another company who knows what they're doing for a few weeks/months with a translator.Yeah, and that listing has been up for nearly a couple of years now.

There's the same listing in the Japanese pages for native Japanese speakers. There are also job listings for pretty much every other job you could imagine at Polyphony. Either they're looking to hire for every single position in the company, or they just have ads up so that they can see what sort of applications they get.
It doesn't mean that they're looking to develop post-launch specifically, the recruitment has been up far too long for that to be the plan. They would have had to hire and onboard someone a while ago. It just means that they're aware that their AI team isn't where it should be. Which is kinda duh, but on the other hand at least they're self aware I suppose.

This is the guy who has been working on the AI for the last 15 years or so. Again, he seems self-aware that the GT AI is not where it needs to be. It's a little disappointing that a game of Gran Turismo's size and reputation isn't just going out and headhunting someone with known experience in the field, because that's what it probably needs at this point.
Hey look, you figured it out. It's not that Gran Turismo has it uniquely hard. It's that they chose to make AI that lets everyone win.
That is not a tough job at all. Many other racing games got it right twenty years ago. It's the bare minimum. Have a look at the difficulty settings for F1 2021, I bet it would blow your mind.
No, you can. Following racing etiquette is not the same as being boring.
Not really. Again, have a look at pretty much any other racing game from the past 10-15 years.
No.
Gran Turismo coming into the online era was a gamechanger for me, and I've enjoyed it quite a bit. It has definitely made me a better driver than I ever was before.
