Codemasters reveals F1 game details

[MR_Candyman]

The guy wasn't driving, or the steering wheel feedback is just not there. None of the actions he performed (including switching gears) registered on the screen.

In other videos (like

) you can actually see the steering wheel react in-game accurately, while in the above he (the steering wheel) had a mind of it's own.

Damn, you're right. The funny thing is I'm willing to bet he would have taken better lines

anyone know if there is real damage, e.g wheels falling off etc? Only damage i have seen is front wings...

Wheels do indeed come off.

Oh nice, they have the DiRT style replay system - That is by far the most awesome replay system in a racing game (Y)

It came from GRID. ;)

Those recent videos are much better! :)

I know but it was improved in DiRT, I believe you were forced to use the preset cameras in replay mode when you wanted to watch a spectacular crash. in DiRT it was more free.

Sold. :p This game cannot come sooner tbh, need a good racing game :D

they could've at least make the car crumple/deform.. and not just have detachable parts come off. They've done this with the Dirt/Grid Series, so unless its a license restrictions, I don't see why not.

In depth look at the front-end and menu's as well as some race action.

Probably because F1 cars are made of carbon fibre, which does not crumple and deform, it shatters.

This game is gonna be epic! :woot:

[.KICK]

Looking forward to this game but why do I have the feeling that I will get bored about a third of the way through a 70 lap race? If you're miles ahead, where is the fun factor?

You're that good, eh ? :rofl:

You don't have to do 70 laps, there's gotta be an option for that. Don't think many people would want to spend 1,5 hours on one race...

I've done full 24 hour races swapping drivers between my brother and I before. Fun times.

It sucks when you get 20 hours into the race and wreck the car :pinch:

Looks bloody good. Need an excuse now for the G27.

[Hedon]

Easily the best looking racing game. Holy crap.

I wouldn't say it's the best looking, but those water droplet effects and camera view does make it look more realistic along with the great color palette. :cool:

[Hedon]

IMO, it's definitely the best looking. F1 sure has stepped it up this year. My Fanatec is going to get a work out.

[ViZioN]

Yeah definitely going to be pre-ordering. I to am looking for an excuse to buy a wheel although I doubt I could justify the G27 :(

Looks brilliant, but I hope there is some way to disable that awful tyre squeal (assuming it is in the final version). I have watched almost all practice sessions, qualifying sessions and races since 2005, and I can't recall ever hearing tyre squeal like that when they race. Only time I have ever heard it is when the car is out of control and heading into a barrier.

[san.W10]

the water droplets should move/fly off when at high speeds.

but this is good, the first ever in f1 games :D

no f1 style steering from logitech yet? :p

[Sethos]

That annoyed me so much, the water droplets are just stuck there - They should at least slide off and new should form :p

Thanks, I'll take a look. Seems a few of those wheels are definitely more affordable :rofl:
