2 pointsThat there is the giveaway answer as to why certain games are easier, or rather more forgiving than others. Mistakes being PUNISHED. In the F1 games as long as you're not deliberately trying to wreck the car almost any mistake will just lose you a couple of seconds. In real life you constantly see frustrated superstar drivers walking angrily back to the pits after a tiny misjudgment. It is that sense of watching them constantly driving right on the edge that inspires awe in us viewers. I just randomly watched a Nurburgring F1 race from the late 90s yesterday. It was full of incidents, mistakes and lead changes and was fascinating to watch. That kind of spectacle just won't happen in an f2 game unless a driver is spectacularly incompetent or deliberately sets out to cause mayhem. When the cost of a single loss of control can effectively ruin your tires ability to remain competitive THAT is realism.

2 pointsI honestly found WRC 8 to be inferior to WRC7 in both handling (with a controller) and graphically, and its UI to be atrocious. 30fps on even the most powerful console available was a joke frankly. And I don't see any improvement in the above video. My impression is 'why do they bother'. I seriously doubt this studio will ever be capable of a game anywhere near the quality of DR.

2 points@BarryBL This should be the engine sound benchmark, a simple assetto corsa mod got the real sound so right the whines, rumbles pops, correct rev sound etc.....

1 pointThe dashboard animations for Ferraris with a certain type of dash are displaying RPM in the wrong way. This might seem like a fairly minor problem and I'm grateful dashboard view was included at all in this game without making a big deal out of it before release (I remember the outcry about dashboard view prior to the release of the previous game.), but I think this could be worth fixing since you guys are required to make the cars look like their real life counterparts. I wanted to wait after the Season 3 content dropped to see if this got fixed but seeing how this bug is still present, I thought I'd report it. I checked the last couple of pages of this sub-forum and couldn't find a report about it yet. Example 1: Ferrari FXX (image #1) The animated part of the display is the black bars which go from left to right depending on how much RPM you're using. However, this is wrong, and indicated in red. The correct animation should be a full display of the black bars filling up the entire display from left to right which would then be filled by the white bars replacing the black ones, depending on RPM. The white bars on the dashboard are already included in the template, marked in green, but it's been applied incorrectly. Example 2: Ferrari 599XX Evo (image #2; image #3, edited for clarity) The same problem exists for the Ferrari 599XX Evo. The white bars aren't part of the template for this one, but the issue is the exact same. Instead of the black bars' (red) numbers increasing with RPM, they should instead get filled with white bars. Image #3 from a different currently available racing game shows the correct way of displaying the dash regarding black and white bars. Example 3: Ferrari 430 Challenge (not pictured) Same problem as Example 1. I went back and checked. Ferraris not affected by this bug: Ferrari 488 GTE, Ferrari 330 P4, Ferrari 365 GTB4 Competizione Ferraris I did not check/don't remember: Ferrari 512 BB LM, Ferrari F430 Challenge Platform: PC, Windows 10, Steam Game Version: 1.0.119.3988 Game Mode: All of them I like racing the cars using the dashboard view, so I hope this can be addressed in a future update. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. Thank you. Stay safe, everyone! Images:

1 pointHi, I have the same problem on PC (win10), my achievements for completing all scenarios haven't unlocked too. I ve finished it today but it didn't unlock the "If In doubt" and "..Flatout" Achievements. UPDATE: 1.14 patch fixed the problem. I lost a scenario, but after re-run I got the achievement! Thx

1 pointAlso - what do you want to upgrade since you can't understand what the car needs because you don't have telemetry. So you have an entire upgrade system, but nothing in the game to effectively understand how it is (might) actually impacting the car's performance. What's the point?

1 pointMate i agree with you.. In One point you have reason.. But i can tell you a story.. I was a big big player of Rfactor 1 i had spent hours and hours on the game.. Someday i wake UP and i had an idea.. I am a noobie in programing But i know a little things so i start mixing with physics.. I changed them changed the values when that value enters and when another starts etc etc etc.. I had done a little programing and i had changed alone a little the Gameplay of the game.. I was able to improve the DRS effect on that mod i was tikering (some of 2012 F1 Season) and i had put more turbulance as well in the car behind etc etc.. Changed the cams positions the angles the zoom.. Until some Day with a help of One friend we together start build a authentic engine sound.. And voila 😃😃 the game After 3 months more or less stayed absoulutelly different.. Conclusion: spent much more years playing and always with pleusure.. So? Can give work its True.. But its perfectly achievable

1 pointI vote for a F1 2020 MALDONADO edition, especially for the Harakiri drivers!

1 pointI dont think it's fair to suggest people who use certain legitimate options in a racing game are "morons". Your post pretty much hints that pad and assists users are of limited intelligence? If however you are referring solely to those people to whom a clean race is a complete waste of time then I would agree with you and can think of some far more 'interesting' words than 'moron'! 😁

1 pointI'm gonna pre-order Forza Horizon 5 and Cyberpunk 2077, how about that.

1 pointIf you feel like opening 200+ lobbies for that 1 lobby where someone is driving with no assists be my guest. Lobbies is dramatic in form of filtering and showing what assists are used. Now you have to open each lobby, go to assist tab and when it's not what you want and back out YOU GO TO THE FRIGGIN HOMESCREEN IN STEAD OF BACK TO LOBBIES! whoever designed that needs to be fired. Omg. and screw business model. F1 is a FAN sport, and FANS want a so close to real SIMULATION. That includes handling.

1 pointPlease, I have been a supporter of the series since the first one, who knew the launch would be such a shambles. Also this was the first game I have ever pre-ordered. Pre-ordering has little to do with the quality of this particular game..

1 pointSo 2000cc is historically (whatever that means) the least popular class in the game since it's almost nonexistent in online events? Finding that a bit difficult to believe. R-GT and Group B RWD are not everyone's cup of tea since they are quite a lot more demanding to drive than R2 or H1 but does that really mean there should be almost no online events with them? R2 or H1 isn't really everyone's cup of tea either since some of us find those cars are quite dull compared to many other more exciting cars in the game. R2 isn't favored "a little bit more". From what I've seen R2 has several as many events as 2000cc, R-GT and Group B RWD combined. Just seems a waste to neglect such great cars. Surely the online events shouldn't be designed exclusively to newbies and players who want cars that are as easy to drive as possible
