Generic Picking your opponents (AI) / Setting difficulty level (slide bars)

There are races where the AI selection is badly balanced, such as the case where the Aventador races against the P1s and LAFs. There's no way to be competitive in this case. Maybe the Aventador would be a better match for the Ferrari GTBs or McLaren MP4s? There's always an option to race against the same model cars, but it'd be nice if I had the chance to pick different opponents with similar level of competitiveness, as I wished. Is there a chance such feature could be implemented?

Besides, it would be nice if the difficulty level could be managed via sliders, since sometimes the difference between going from medium to easy is astounding, such in the case of the Lotus 49 or the Maserati 12C; With 'medium', I can hardly keep up with the AI cars and lag far behind, while with 'easy' I race alone, far ahead of them. My major difficulty is keeping up with some of the Formula cars in 'medium level' (both vintage and modern); a slider, if implemented, could help me keeping close to them while I gradually improved my skills. To me, neither staying far behind nor too ahead is of much help for that.

From reading this forum I know there are other priorities requested and I'd be glad if the suggestions above could come at some point in a future update. But I really hope they come, since it seems they already exist in another platform and are important features for those of us who like to race in SP mode.

Thanks

 

Be great to have this, and would be more like the PC version. I don't know why they chose to have preset difficulty levels on console instead of the % option.

AI is still quite unbalanced, as I found out racing the 962 short tail where the AI on Alien is far too slow due to heavy braking being used by the AI all the time. Can't have a decent race in this car because of it, whereas most other times the AI is very quick, and as stated, sometimes there's a massive difference between even medium and hard, and the open wheelers really are tough to beat.

I hope they haven't settled on the AI as is, for it still needs some work, definitely in terms of balancing.

 

Hypercar is precisely the class where aventador should be. The difference in speed with the P1, Laf and 918 is much shorter than competing with fast supercars like 488 or GTR Nismo, where the Aventador just race alone. In real life, aventador is just as quick as the P1, 918 and probably faster than LaF in nordschleife for example.

Agree with the sliders, much better solution. I believe there is an special reason why they havent implemented it yet.

 

You're right, It's shouldn't be in the hypercar category. The only real solution, as you said, would be being able to pick the cars for our AI opponents.
I also agree about the AI % sliders. "Easy" isn't a real challenge, but some times on Medium, there are 2-3 cars that get far ahead quickly and I'm not able to catch up with them.

PS: This suggestion by @ShredatorFIN would be the icing on the cake.

Sure it would be nice if anything like the suggestion you shared through the link was implemented. That would improve the balance, no doubt.
