AI bots in multiplayer and offline
Hopefully this one is going to have AI bots in multiplayer so I can play with a friend in a private lobby and other AIs. Also AIs on custom made tracks. Otherwise I'm not going to buy it again.



Edited with answer after playing:

There is no AI at all on custom tracks. Either online multiplayer, split screen, or single player, there is no AI bots if a custom track is selected.

For official maps, you can have AIs only in single player or split screen multiplayer. So even if official map is selected, there is no AI at all if playing online multiplayer and no possibility to add it.

Well, if there isn't AI for our own tracks or multiplayer, it will be a no from me. I have learned my lesson from buying the first game.

This, the community tracks must be downloadable and playable offline against bots. It was extremely limited what we could do in the first one with those shortcomings.

This is a must for me too. I wanted to buy the first one because I thought I could play against bots for custom tracks, but that wasn't the case so I didn't buy it.

Considering that they still haven't answered, I have a strong feeling we still won't have bots for MP and custom tracks....

Yeah I think so. I might wait for a sale and just pick up the first Hotwheels Unleashed GOTY on sale for the PS4 one day, just to have a casual two player split-screen game. Even if it is just on the ingame tracks. And then just fingers crossed for Wreckreaction, hoping that will have proper AI on custom tracks (although I wouldn't hold my breath for this ;-) ), as it kinda looks like the development is more in the direction of the 'massive online multiplayer' route. But I am getting a bit off topic now.

One day before launch. Guess we will find out soon anyway.

So, now that the game has been released.... AI in private lobbies yes or no? If no, no sale for me.

NO!...I just tested. There is no AI in private lobbies or anywhere online at all, unfortunately. Not even on official tracks you still dont have AI. Which is mind boggling because they dont have the excuse "oh it's hard to implement AI on custom made tracks" anymore. Not even official tracks have the option to turn on AI bots, you dont have it for those either. So those tracks already have AIs when you play in singleplayer, so WHY THE ♥♥♥♥ arent they there in MP?? What a waste!

Only split screen there is AI, so in local multiplayer on same device.

Thanks for the info. So, no sale for me. It was really disappointing in the first game for me and a friend of mine. We tried playing online, but the lobbies were horrible.

Only AI in local multiplayer split screen? Come on devs... what the eff?

(1) Is that only on official tracks? Or also on custom made tracks? As the latter I am looking for if that is in the game, as I was missing that in the previous game.

(2) Local multiplayer, with how many players is this possible? Still only 2 as in the previous game, or more?

(3) Is it possible for the single player game, to play on custom tracks with AI? As this was also something missing on the first game.

Hope you can shed some light on these issues, and if they have been fixed in the sequel.

What a shame, these games put so much resources in custom tracks features and stuff but you can't even race them with AI. Made me regret getting the first game, I guess I'll skip the second one.

So this is not an awnser to my question, but an assumption? As I have yet to see a response from anyone if AI on custom tracks is possible in this game. Still waiting on that...
