I Love Drivatars... I Hate Drivatars

Thanks lol, I put that together while testing out the upload / gamedvr features on the X1 but had my daughter sitting next to me as I recorded the audio. As a result I was a bit restrained with my "acting" lol. That and she kept looking up at me and shaking
her head as if to suggest "My old man has done flipped his wiglet...sigh..."

I might try my hand at a few other videos and see how they turn out lol. Maybe Titan Fall next...

Despite the Drivatar system bringing with it som negstive issues from online multiplayer racing I like it.. I generally dont paticipate a lot in online multiplayer racing (a bit shy I guess), but I will give it a shot once in a while the thing is when
I do go racing online I'm perhaps a bit too carefull and considderate... but when I play offline singelplayer on either Xb or Ps consoles (previously to FM5's drivatar) i a bit to often have found myself beeing a bit to ruthless towards the AI drivers.. now
what drivatar does for me is making me get my act together, as I do not want my drivatar beeing a ruthless bully tearing around the track(s) terrorising other gamers

It's not what I was thinking either. I think Peddler is manufacturing this rivalry for his own enjoyment! LOL

Either way - let's all try to hook up for some racing this weekend. I'll definitely be on Saturday afternoon/evening/night. I'll most likely be on Sunday afternoon/evening/night. I'll keep an eye out for you guys and try to get us all hooked up!

I actually just picked up FM5 2 weeks ago. I've not had any online races in FM5 yet as I'm just now starting build my garage and, moreover, have been knocking the rust off. I'm just now hitting top 1% times again and occasionally breaking into top 500 lap
times. There was a time, a few years ago, when I was in the top 1/10th of the top 1% on the FM leader boards. I remember getting a 12th position lap time in Forza 1 on the OG Xbox.

Yeah, but it's "artificially" unbeatable. I say this because the drivatar's are not unbeatable on "unbeatable" at all. It's starting off in 14th place and only having 2 laps to pass everyone that's the problem in career mode. By the way, I sometimes abuse
rewind during my first lap because it's a total pain in the a$$ to pass the drivatar's when they're three wide, slamming on the brakes when they shouldn't and suddenly veering in front of you for no apparent reason not to mention they're just plain slower
than you to begin with. lol

By the way, I did notice starting off in 8th place at some point in a race or two but I have no idea how that happened. Anyone know?
