gaz Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 I played the 2007 one and it was shit. Like really shit. Quote

Scott-EP Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 I'm itching to get my hands on this!! May have to go up to tesco's tonight and get it! Quote
wssoR Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 I'm thinking of doing the same, don't know if I'll fit in with all the geeks tho, lol Quote
wssoR Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 Jus picked it up not gonna play it till tomorrow though, I need some sleep Quote
Johnny_B Posted September 25, 2010 Author Posted September 25, 2010 I played the 2007 one and it was shit. Like really shit.Made by different companies, so theres no comparison.The game is good but it's got some major glitches! Theres a 70 page thread about them on the codemasters forum. Think they rushed it out so that the cars are current. I'm sure stuff will be sorted with patches, but its annoting atm. Quote
Scott-EP Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 I've not had any glitches what so ever yet haha Quote
Sparky Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 You cant compare it to other F1 games, its the first F1 game made by codemasters.I think its pretty awsome tbhI am on round 11 and have'nt even scored a point but I am on pole for the Hockengheim grand prix I have all driving aids off, manual etc and its fucking challenging!!!The realism is great, can really feel how lively the cars are and how they change through a course of a race.I have noticed the frame rate can go really slow in places and sometimes it freezes for a split second when leaving the pits but other than that its ok and im sure it will be updated soon. Quote
Sanchez Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 dont really sound worth buying tbh, ALL the previous f1 games have been shite!Too addicted to cod any way, 9th prest!! Quote
Sparky Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 Step away from the COD Nah its pretty decent tbh, F1 games did go downhill after 1997 on the ps1 Quote
gaz Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 I was gonna message you Lewis to see how it was, but checked here first. Do you have a steering wheel and that? Or is that just controller? If you detect all that from controller I might get it. What you reckon? I have a tendancy to get bored quick. Sounds hard though. Quote
Sparky Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 Wish I had a wheel and pedals, gonna take it up my mates and give it a go. Seen a video on youtube of someone playing it with the wheels and pedals looks more enjoyable! Quote
Scott-EP Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 I'm addicted to this game!Got traction control on medium, automatic and A.I. on medium not doing to bad finish in top 6 most races haha!! I should really turn the difficulty up and stop being a pussy!Annoying when you hit the curb and it spins the car out!I like how you can see blisters on the tyres aswel,Has anyone had it stop raining yet and had the racing line start to dry out ? Quote
Dan507 Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 bought it friday and still haven't played it yet LOLs Quote
Johnny_B Posted September 26, 2010 Author Posted September 26, 2010 I'm really in to it now!I play with all assists off bar ABS.Have just won my third race of the season at Spa. It is challenging though and I have to use a flashback or two a race, but I don't restart races.The frame rate on Monaco had me pissed off, but everything has been trouble free since then! Quote
Scott-EP Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Just finished a race at Monaco in the wet only 10 Car's finished! I came 9th after getting 2 Puncture's and losing my front wing once lol Quote
gaz Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Consoles can't handle the graphics and physics needed because they're shit. Still might get it though haha. My surround sounds makes up for it. Quote
