Is Forza Motorsport's AI Really THAT Fast?

We've heard a lot about the incredible speed the Forza Motorsport AI is capable of, but is it true of the AI in the game? Can it run the "theoretical fastest possible laps", or is it merely just faster than the old AI? Turns out, the speed of the AI greatly depends on the type of car.

    The AI is definitely faster and generally takes better lines than it used to. However they really seem to struggle traction loss and avoid it like the plague. So they seem to really struggle in cars where you need to slide it bit to get the most out of them. I noticed this is reflected in the PI system too, as it tends to weight handling upgrades heavier than speed upgrades. I found focusing on speed upgrades gave me quite the advantage on the AI.

    I’m theorizing that the handling stat of the Porsche GT3 R is so much lower than other GTs because the PI system is based on how fast the AI can lap the car. And the Porsche might just be difficult for the AI to extract time out of it being a slidey car like you mentioned.

    They will maintain that pace till you get in front of them then they go stupid just like in FM7. The rubberbanding and extra horsepower they had in FM7 made them hard to catch but once you got by them they lose all their cheats.

    Bro this has been happening since way back, i would say fm6 even had some aspects of this where the first 3 people will always get ahead by such a large margin and they are impossible to catch so youre either stuck in 4th for the remainder of the race between 2 groups of cars the 3 up front and the tightly kept group 5thand beyond, what really pisses me off is how accurate this is, i play on difficulty 6/8 with AI and on every single race ive done i always always manage to get myself in a position where is neither good or bad, whatever the situation is it will play out exactly the same otherwise ill be in 2nd or 3rd place and 2nd place and 1st will be like miles ahead, how did they do it?

    This video reminds me of the AI in Project Gotham Racing 2 for the original XBOX back in 2004; if you set it to easy you'll win by a few seconds but if you set it to the hardest then you have to be 95%+ clean for the entire race to be in with a chance; it's actually really good, tough but fair.

    I wonder if the game is doing a gt7 and intentionally throttling the ai based on where you are on track. In singleplayer you always seem to have 2 cars that just shoot away from you that you can't catch. However if you manage to catch 2nd and pass it they do seem to drop off a bit. So i wonder if running with 1 ai messes with this system and the ai is actually slower than it can be.

In FM8 I only seem to get 2 kinds of races, either the lead AI is like 1 second a lap faster than me and I'm 1 second a lap faster than 3rd place, or I'm 2+ seconds a lap faster than all of them. Either one, zero battling after the first half lap, and the rest of the race is just hotlapping.

    Not played so my comments are from watching KZread. My initial thought was rubber banding in traffic. So, the front runners get to go clean while if you're in the pack your defending. If out front then rubber banding brings you back into the pack. So, with nothing going on around you or AI cars all OK. It's when racing a combination of rubber banding for cars behind to catch up and front runners getting away clean may be why the AI looks faster.

    If it's truly a "machine-learning" AI, then in theory, the more AI you run in a particular class, the better they will get. Supposedly. And I keep wondering if each person has their own AI and if each AI learns at a different pace. My AI, for instance, has learned to "push to pass" by going into corners too hot, but bouncing off of you in order to make the corner. This doesn't even earn them a penalty. So if I'm going into a corner on the outside and side by side, I've learned to hesitate for just a moment as they go careening past and off into the shadow realm. It's quite frustrating. Also on a straight if you pull alongside, nearly every time they'll lunge sideways at you. I wish someone would teach my AI to avoid contact if at all possible. And I wish they'd teach the penalty system that if you get knocked off track from behind, the penalty should go on the offending car rather than the victim.

    Definite rubber banding of AI cars. They always never lose traction at the start. I play on sport rules difficulty. Nothing special. At least 6 to eight cars accelerate past you at the start leaving you at about p24, then mid race the AI slows down if you are defending, if thats such a word to use in a racing game here !. Then you can race past about 6 cars. You can get to about p16, then the AI cars seem to magically speed up, (ridiculous in my opinon), from about 500 yds behind you to then 2 feet, either crashing into the back of you or overtaking with no traction loss. In only 1 race out of 6 I achieved P3 on the podium. Definitely some strange and at times odd AI behaviour, Of course much better than previous Forza versions. I am enjoying this game and its plays very well on the PC. If you have an RTX 2080 Ti, or similar dont worry, it plays really well with good FPS. You dont need an RTX 4090. Optimisation is good.
