Uh, no. Why don't the game developers put more effort into coding a decent
AI and less into graphics? Now, why don't you take your inane comment and
shove it up your arse.

Game developers realize that if they put more effort into coding AI,
and less into graphics, then Crispy Critter around the globe will all
cry about how their new PC racing sim doesn't look as nice as their
buddy's XBox360 games...

Perhaps you should switch to decaf for awhile?...

    You would think that by this stage of the evolution of sims that some
decent AI code would be around by now and easily implemented (and maybe even
improved upon each time) into new sims.

    Having said that, this is greatly subjective. In the opinion of some,
various sim AI might be arguably perfect. In any case, in my experience with
AI it is a matter of getting to know it and dealing with it - as is the case
irl actually. :)

Decaf is for pussies such as yourself.

You're right, I'll drive on the outside of the track from now on and stay
off the optimal line because the AI doesn't like me driving there. :)

    LOL.

    Ok, more seriously, is that on an original track or an aftermarket one?
GTL was the sim btw, right?

No, it was ageneral comment about most racing sims. It was in F1 '99-02'
where I gave an example (no add-on tracks). Still, I shouldn't comlain too
much as all my favourite sims have much better AI than that last F1 sim
Ubisoft put out. I have that one too but haven't touched it in years
because the AI is so poor.
