Gran Turismo 7's 'Sophy' AI Receives Revolutionary Revamp

sophy, anna, alexia, cortesia, the stupid male fantasm for an AI female

As for the name, I blame Eliza, but males and their need to feminize things is comical at best. There's a reason we women name our babies, and even our trinkets, we're built for it.

And on the AI front, a DARPA like challenge where AI is used to across racing sims is long over due. I wanna see Sophy declare the iracing tire model trash. officially.

"Not only have there been some aggression and difficulty tweaks, but the race strategy is also customizable and player-controlled. This is fantastic for simulating race and stint distances"

Man, I wish AMS2 got something like that....

Well I think an AI called Bogdan or Derek somehow wouldnt be as successful.

I think the gt7 devs have slightly more resources than Reiza . But yeah, it would be great to see this in more sims. I’m sure we will, I wonder if ac evo will have proper ai ?

I think in this day and age people who want good AI have to go where the money is and where there is no time for a "small team" excuse...

GT may be "too casual" these days for a lot of the chest beaters who have slagged it off for years... But the last decade has seen the difference between simulation and GT in the mainstream perception drastically dwindle with pCARS and ACC bridging the gap upon release and S397 dumbing down the rF2 engine until the last few years...

LMU wouldn't be classed as a "super serious simulation" by some corners of the sim racing media a decade ago... It'd just be a simulation and would be called simcade by some...

That's just how far the needle has moved...

where ? when ? proof ?
I just hope EA and codemasters will lose the F1 licence for s397, they have proved with LMU they can do a superior game. I can't imagine a F1 game with LMU graphics, physics, sound, and laserscanned tracks, my dream of simracer.

Please, tell me, in what fantasy world you live in to even have a though that something like that is even remotely possible?
This, or you need to change your dealer.

When they took over... And they haven't cleaned out that crap physics from their rF2 content either...

Go drive a Tatuus F3 Asia and treat it the same way you can treat the worst of the SETA tyres over the years...

Max front wing, minimum rear wing, flat camber and then you'll find gobs of time...

Throw physics out the window... It's got that SETA grip profile that made pCARS both derided by hardcore sim racers and loved by the casual... It's actually the perfect representation of why I found AMS2 1.5 as grossly out of my comfort zone as I did... It's like Reiza decided to follow the worst years of S397 just as S397 had cleaned up their act...

This I agree with, it's like Reiza working on the rF2 engine instead of S397 for me... If that had happened we'd have an awesome AMS2 right now instead of something with very questionable bugs...

And we'd have that wonderful F1 game you dream of...

not interested by reiza, but by s397, and i didnt read your post, s397 has pushed rF2 so much particulary about tyres and graphics.

Wow The Gran Turismo excellence and incredible AI leaps quickly got undermined by miniscule tangents.

DonaldRacer · Sunday at 21:38

Whats the difference between usual AI-enemies (lets say on "hard") and Sophy ?

I never understood that.

It's a more advanced AI model that supposedly learns from it's own mistakes, and improves.

S397 have done a good job with the graphics... Not so much with the physics... Took them ages to figure out the tyre model and they're still figuring things out or late updating... Even in LMU there have been tyre revisions...

But they aren't alone in the industry... They don't have the excuse of a broken physics engine like other developers do, all of their borked physics is their own doing on a proven physics platform...

sorry but if you try the old cars made by ISI and the new one with s397 only, it's not a gap, it's a canyon about the difference, night and day, if you don't see it, I understand you like Reiza or Kunos.

Nah I prefer ISI... They made that engine and are responsible for it's reputation as having great physics...

S397 screwed the pooch when they took over... Made people who care about physics look at other options like Reiza or Kunos...

This has nothing, literally nothing to do with S397 being able to make a F1 game instead of EA/CM.

When you think about F1 game you think only about physics and driving the cars. What makes F1 games (or at least EA thinks so and would never back away from it) is also everything around. The 3d cut-scenes, the team, the plot, the experience of being the driver with the fame and all the sh&% around that. Most of this is completely unachievable in the current engine S397 has.

you are right, I have forgotten the sim 4 parts in the F1 games

I think you are alone in your boat, cause almost all the rF2 users have requested to "upgrade" the old ISI content to the s397 standard....particulary about the tyres....but in your case, it's like giving caviar to a dog

, he can't appreciate it
