Codemasters' F1 game discussion

there is some fantastic information there!

it really turned around my hopes for the game for the better. it seems they are really putting an effort in to get it right. let's hope they do this, as with all the extra time they will have, there are no excuses.


btw, where did this come from?

Damn. We'll have to keep on racing decent sims.

Lol at the graphics, bad even for the Wii.

The Screenshots are actually from the PSP version that will be released later this year.

No, those are Wii screenshots. Sumo are working on the PSP and Wii versions.

Yeah, looks horrible.

this is going to be baaaaaaaaaaaad.

you'd be surprised how much one ignorant c**t in charge can organise a group of people to totally ruin a decent game.

I just played the latest F1 game for PS3, did a championship and turned it off after three races. it's atrocious. the final nail in the coffin for me was that it cut my quali lap off because the time ran out, even though i started my lap before the timer hit zero.

and it's not going to get any better. just about the worst racing game i've played recently is GRID, and if they're using the same people and same engine, don't even bother with it IMO.

i'm not actually going to get a truly great game to play until the next elder scrolls game comes out....

Have you actually read *anything* about this game?

Nice. The distinctive sound of a turbo charged Cosworth V8 from the back of a Champ Car. You ain't fooling anyone Codemasters.

Hmm, indeed. Even if they're trying, they've only succeeded at fail.

That is quite a low engine sound, now that you've mentioned it, doesn't sound like any of the F1 powerplants.
But it is just a little clip.

tbh all i needed to hear about it was the lead designer calling sim racers "snobs".

However bad it may be it still serves as the perfect adjective for a large amount of people. I'm hoping this one is good, no hopes for PSP/Wii though.

lol@champcar sounds.

Its like iDT using the same sounds for their champcar 95(??) mod and the 06-07 mod.

Erm, those were the actual qualifying rules in early 2006.
