Hey, has anyone noticed the behavior of AI cars after 1.1 patch? Well, they
seem to make so many more "believable" mistakes it's not funny. I tried about
5 different starts and on each start there were at least 2-3 incidents withing
the 1st couple of laps. By incidents I don't mean crashes - I mean cars
running wide of corners, applying a little bit too much power out of corner
and spinning, getting wobbly under brakes and losing the back etc. They seem
so much more homan now.
I'm not sure if they still ram you from behind one on a while but whatever I
saw looked a lot better that 1.0 GPL (not that it was bad before).
I'm pleased with this.
BTW, I don't get any framerate difference even though it now maxes at 37fps
instead of 36. Though, the patch did wipe all my records for Honda :-(
Regards,
David Mocnay

like me. :) A LOT more fun and competitive too.
During the final turn at Silverstone I went a bit too close to the inside
edge and Mclaren actually dodged into the pit lane! Usually a shunt happens
and you have to restart the race. Now its fun, fun, fun!
