Got this today. This is probably the best looking game on PS4 so far. It looks good when it's clear, great when it's snowing, but I'm super impressed by the visuals when it's raining.

I'm really struggling with the difficulty so far though. If Semi-pro is the starting difficulty, I don't know how I'm going to get very far. Hopefully it gets easier as I learn the game. The only real issue I have so far is that I get penalized when the AI rams into me, plus they don't seem to be slowed down when they run into me like I am when I run into them. Doesn't seem right.

I agree that the user gets the raw end of the impact penalty a bit too often, but I find that as long as I'm holding a line on the track I don't get the penalty quite as frequently when trading paint. If you veer into another car's line in a turn, yeah, you're probably going to get hit with the fame penalty.

As for the slowing down bit, I think that only happens to the user when you really plow a car from behind and use their rear bumper as your brake - it gets a different penalty "Collision Penalty" and throttles your speed for a few seconds in the same way that cutting a corner does. I haven't noticed a slowdown when getting the normal car impact penalties, and I don't think the AI is affected by either speed penalty.

I believe there are a couple difficulty levels below semi pro

Ahh, ok, I guess that's probably why I was doing well in the first few races in tour but getting my *** handed to me when I went to single races.
