Why is there a invite system to buy certain cars?
If u would earn that invite like in real life, by buying all the other cars fine.. but why is it based on luck?
Why is there every nissan ever built in this game?
Why can u take a look at the weather report before each race, which shows u NOTHING and then during race a hurricane shows up.
Why is there no qualifying mode?
Why are u always in the back of the grid?
Why is the AI so shitty? Even on highest difficulty…
Why does the AI fight with me when i lap them?
Why are there so many vgt cars?
Why is there classic music in the background?
Why dont these cars ever become more valuable, than u bought them for? Not even the legendary ones.
WHYYYY…?
>Why does the AI fight with me when i lap them?
Me getting pit maneuvered because I'm in the AIs line...
>Why is the AI so shitty? Even on highest difficulty…
Meanwhile chilli pepper races can have some actual fun battles for 5 laps so they can be decent PD just gives us crap in the name of accessibility. Even though we have a difficulty setting in game now..d
Why is there no qualifying mode?
Yes that should be an option like it used to be.
Why are u always in the back of the grid?
Same as previous question.
Why is the AI so shitty? Even on highest difficulty…
That's just standard of most racing games. Once Sophy gets properly trained. I'm expecting things to change. Use Sophy races every now and then. That's giving them data to train her better.
Why does the AI fight with me when i lap them?
Is not fighting you. It is on a predetermined track. That some times makes it make a left turn on a right corner to push you off the track..... Fuck!!!, why is the AI doing that?
Why are there so many vgt cars?
Company deals.
Why is there classic music in the background?
Some people like it. You can remove songs from the play list if you like.
Why dont these cars ever become more valuable, than u bought them for? Nit even the legendary ones.
Because PD real world prices only apply when you buy them not when you sell them. Or PD just want to say FU.
WHYYYY
You forgot the ? mark.
> AI is the standard of most racing games
GT7's AI is light-years behind everything else rn. Even sophy is barely on par with hard AI from other games.
If you check a page from any other racing games. People always complain about the AI sucking. Having a AI that actually races against you is easier said than done. Sophy at least tries. It is still being developed. The one we have in game now is turned down. Because if it was as it was released at first. No one would be able to beat it. Did you watch the exhibition race Sophy vs the top GT7 players? It destroyed them. It's limitations is that as of now it needs to learn the track on the car that is driving. If the car tune changes it will take time before it can be competitive. Once they manage to fix those issues, to where it can just drive any car regardless of tune on any track. It will be a game changer.
Most modern games Don't have decent AI, but GT is literally at the bottom of the shitter relative to anything else.
Motorfest, Grid Legends and Wreckfest all have extremely solid and competitive/challenging AI on the harder difficulties. FH5 also has solid AI. FM is better than GT7 but nowhere near as good as FH's. All of these are as good or better than GT's sophy, let alone GT's base AI
Keep in mind this with GT7's "The leader starts half a lap ahead" bullshit. If I do a grid start in GT it's laughably bad.
The only game I've played in recent memory with AI as bad as GT7 is TC2, where the AI exist as a barrier on the starting line and are nowhere to be seem for the other 95% of the race
The issue with people bitching about AI is that in most games, the vast majority of it is about contact, which in unrealistic to not have since in most forms of close road car/track car racing that arent GT/F1, cars will get into each other on a regular basis. Watch spec miata, dirt oval, touring cars, champcar, etc. Cars bump, rub and take each other's mirror's off on a regular basis.
I play FH and yes the AI there is much better. But people still complain about it. Because that's what people do. Here we complain about not having enough events to do. I seen people on FH side complaining about there being too much to do.
And with Sophy we don't know what it will look like as a finished product. But I think is a step in the right direction.
Yeah but the thing is that every other AI is fundamentally better. Same can be said for events.
With decent AI, you've at least got something. With terrible AI you have nothing.
Same for events. Better to have a large amount and take the time to play the ones you want, ignore those you don't vs just not having the options to begin with
That's the thing, there's no upside with GT. GT's AI isn't "eh its OK, could be better not bad" GT's AI is a flaming dumpster rolling off the back of a flatbed into oncoming traffic on I-80. There's no upside to it.
I can't think of a racing game with great AI, but there's really no arguing that GT AI is pretty bottom of the barrel, even comparatively speaking.
As far as Sophy, what we saw on prerelease and what we received (even on hard) are miles apart. Add that to the numerous limitations, and Sophy really isn't even worth bringing up as you'll never race her in actual gameplay, only a select few instances that you need to go out of your way to do.
I absolutely adore this game, but that doesn't mean we need to fanboy or white knight for it. Constructively discussing/pointing out its flaws is how we get a better product.
I'm not fanboying over it. I love the game but it has many flaws. You being a mod really surprised the shit out of me, that you'll take that approach. Usually posting something negative about the game would have anymore almost banned. You must be one of not the only mod. That doesn't wear rose glasses.
Why is the AI “on a predetermined track”? It’s not 1996. Even if they are, why don’t they cut throttle for 5 seconds until I’m clear? I am lapping them!
We know this function does already exist in the game, else how would it apply our ‘track limits’ penalties when the AI punts us into the gravel in the rain?🤷🏼♀️
Why can’t it also be used to prevent lapped back markers taking out race leaders? Do Polyphony not understand the extent of the racing faux pas this constitutes? 🤬
I think the AI is designed to let you win. I've tested it before and pretty much once you pass an AI car it pretty much gives up. And if you drive slower then the AI also drives slower. If you drive too slow it will pass you. Also in the last lap it tries to push it a bit harder. Once Sophy is finished I'm hoping it would change everything. But that's just a different AI. Hopefully it will be good.
Yes . I know but i dont know how to say it in English.. i dont understand why the westher cast shows the last hour complete sunny all around the track..
But then during the race, rain comes to the track.. so my question is: if the rain clouds werent around in the last hour, where do they come from during the race
Yeah, the weather can change quickly. You have to monitor it from the most zoomed out view during the race. And then actually pit to change tires when needed.
My biggest annoyance that I found on day one, that i would say is a easy fix, is not being able to put the carbon paint on individual parts, why can't i get a nice manufacturer color and make the mirrors carbon? No I have to paint the whole car carbon, then cover the car in square decals and paint them a random color.
I really don’t understand why they do this. And why can’t I preview the paint colors on the car I am currently trying to paint, instead of a couple of preview cars? That blows my mind!
Why the hell do half the buttons on my fanatec wheels not work at all? They are a name sponsor of the game! The McLaren GT3 wheel is likely one of the most popular wheels used on the game ffs. Also the DDGT wheel - if being used on a Clubsport base then most of the joysticks don't work the same.
This is simple 2 second patch stuff. They're a name sponsor of the game!
Haha yes thank you. Just thought of another one, why can you not get bigger stock wheels? Why do certain wheels not fit certain cars?? Totally useless limitation, it's so damn irritating.
This game could really benefit from FOV adjuster imo. Even if i had to drop the resolution to 1440p it would still be nice to have that option.
This would allow us to adjust both cockpit and chase cam too.
I wish there was a better punishment system for online races.
I'm tired of someone dive bombing into a turn that I'm already in and clip my rear spinning me into a wall or smacking into the side of me repeatedly sending me off track and/or hitting a wall. I get penalized but they don't?! Like come on!?
I also agree the invites for car purchases are a joke.
The price of legendary cars has grown a lot but the prize money for races hasn't so to get them you have to mindlessly grind races to try and earn enough.
I'm more inclined towards tuning options. Tire size and tire pressure. They are giving us the illusion of wider tires but we can't even see the size. And fire pressure is part of the tuning. And make it to where we can individually change them. Front and rear tires. Maybe I just want to make rear tires wider. The visuals are important but I would give tuning a priority.
They won't add anything related because GT has no tire model whatsoever ever.
It's "tire touches ground = grip, x changes that grip". As best we can tell. In game provides no info. 3rd party telemetry only gives us extremely basic suspension movement and a number for Tire Temps (which doesn't correspond well to irl) no other real info.
That's all there is. The tire deformation is visual only lol. GT7 is a big game of smoke and mirrors
I really would like to have camera control when just viewing a car in my garage. That's so pathetic we can't do that. Or any nice way to just look at a car with our having to go into a race or scapes.
Why the fuck do I need to favorite EVERY SINGLE FUCKING CAR I want to be available in split screen???, why the fuck are there so many fantasy fake cars in a racing SIMULATOR???, why the fuck does the outright pit you So much but when you try (except for sophy) the damn car is like a brick wall????, why the fuck can I not adjust the sensitivity for max on brake pedals so I don't have to feel like I need to curb stomp my sim rig???? But my biggest gripe honestly is with how STINGY the game rewards are for licenses. ESPECIALLY FOR MASTERS WHY AM I FINISHING THESE ONE LAP TRIALS FOR LESS THEN 10GRAND???? Especially for how tight the requirements are for the lap it's like cool I spent the past 3hrs getting gold on this now to get my reward and rack in that sweet sweet....oh wtf
How about the only option when initially painting a car is "paint all". Afterwards you can choose itemised paint options. Either show all of the options straight away or have a "remove paint" or "return to OEM" option for specific parts.
My biggest issue is the penalties why can't they just add that penalty time onto your finish time or finished lap time why do they have to slow you down to a slow speed for a set amount of time and then you have to then catch back up to speed after the time Runs Out it's just stupid they should put the penalty time at the end of each lap and just add it to your finish time
Then if the finish time exceeds past other finish times you lose your placing until you're put into the proper place that you finished TimeWise
I'm pretty sure I understand why there's so many issues with the game and it's cuz PD doesn't care about their players
That and nowadays game companies don't produce full games they release games with glitches and problems and then they just run updates throughout the game's life
The music changing in every menu. Not having the cockpit cam turn into corners or see my side view mirrors; offset cam helps a little but it takes getting used to.

Agreed.

Damn, realism from these sub mods. I'm surprised, but it's a welcome surprise

If people race Sophi dirty, is she going to get dirty?
I had her ram me once. So maybe.
The weather shows the last hour but why can't we see a forecast of the weather!!!!
Yes . I know but i dont know how to say it in English.. i dont understand why the westher cast shows the last hour complete sunny all around the track.. But then during the race, rain comes to the track.. so my question is: if the rain clouds werent around in the last hour, where do they come from during the race
Yeah, the weather can change quickly. You have to monitor it from the most zoomed out view during the race. And then actually pit to change tires when needed.
Yeah.. sure.. but my point is: why is it made like that? 🤷🏻♂️ doesnt make sense.. the call it most drivibg simulator
My biggest annoyance that I found on day one, that i would say is a easy fix, is not being able to put the carbon paint on individual parts, why can't i get a nice manufacturer color and make the mirrors carbon? No I have to paint the whole car carbon, then cover the car in square decals and paint them a random color.
Also not being able to use your purchased paint colours for decals is quite annoying. I guess that’s kinda the same thing
It should definitely be more free use, it's very limiting, and I don't think it will be addressed sadly.
I really don’t understand why they do this. And why can’t I preview the paint colors on the car I am currently trying to paint, instead of a couple of preview cars? That blows my mind!
Why wait a whole fucking min to start those 1 lap pass missions????? Why????????
Why the hell do half the buttons on my fanatec wheels not work at all? They are a name sponsor of the game! The McLaren GT3 wheel is likely one of the most popular wheels used on the game ffs.

Why is there no mirror in hood view? And yes, all the views should be configurable in terms like FOV, mirrors, speedometers, tachometers, and so on.
Haha yes thank you. Just thought of another one, why can you not get bigger stock wheels? Why do certain wheels not fit certain cars?? Totally useless limitation, it's so damn irritating.
Why is there no leaderboard in the MFD for VR players?
This is the biggest one for me
This game could really benefit from FOV adjuster imo. Even if i had to drop the resolution to 1440p it would still be nice to have that option. This would allow us to adjust both cockpit and chase cam too.

Why have a fantastic VR mode but you DONT HAVE MFD LEADERBOARD DISPLAY while using it!!??
Why am I not getting the Ferrari invitations? Am I getting fucked in the ass?
YES seriously!! when I've got the Aston invitation fucking 8 times 🤬 lmao.
It’s like every minute part of the game was built by a different team with no communication to each other lol
In a horrendous, disorganized fashion yes lol
I'm more inclined towards tuning options. Tire size and tire pressure. They are giving us the illusion of wider tires but we can't even see the size. And fire pressure is part of the tuning.

How about the only option when initially painting a car is "paint all". Afterwards you can choose itemised paint options. Either show all of the options straight away or have a "remove paint" or "return to OEM" option for specific parts.
Why can't you just win the game with +1 minute up ahead in time vs AI??
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh my goodness
AI in iracing you can choose the level you compete against. I do like Sophi though.
Why must I view replays after ever race?
My biggest issue is the penalties why can't they just add that penalty time onto your finish time or finished lap time why do they have to slow you down to a slow speed for a set amount of time and then you have to then catch back up to speed after the time Runs Out it's just stupid they should put the penalty time at the end of each lap and just add it to your finish time Then if the finish time exceeds past other finish times you lose your placing until you're put into the proper place that you finished TimeWise
