Catch Up System.

Post by Matrix ZeroCool »

Hi!
I know that you can turn the catch up system ON/OFF in quick race, but are there some way you can do it in carrier mode :?:

Because if there's an option to do so, the races wouldn't be so realistic anymore... :roll:

Ok thanks, but I don't think it is any more realistic with AI cars that magically is catching up on you from nowhere. EA have done a very bad AI system, just take a look at the old Toca race game there you had skilled AI drivers instead of this poorly developed AI catch up system.

I agree with that... Even though you're like 900 Meters away from them, they'd still be successful on catching us, but it's the complete opposite for us... :roll:

And FYI, the Gameplay settings by default is MEDIUM, that's why it's tough to beat them sometimes. :)

Yes I know but if you run it like that the AI drivers is not any good competition, I wold like to run the game in HARD without catch up system. Because isn't it like in EASY they are easier to beat and in HARD they are harder to beat, even if you don't have the catch up system? Every other game is like that racing game or not, if not then EA have rely screwed the game up.

It gives your opponents a ridiculous burst of speed and agility so that they can cheaply catch up if they're far behind.

it also prevents them from getting too far ahead of you, giving you the ability to catch up, providing for more head to head battles.

Well, it's supposed to. But more often than not I find that once your opponent passes you it's nearly impossible to catch up yourself.
