    The Game Thread!

    that you did but then you do have moer favts to go on than the rest of us I'm glad it's been delayed though as I'd rather it be perfect when we do get our hands on it and also it frees up some money which I can now use elsewhere if I need to. Also gives me more time to clear my backlog a bit. Yea it is indeed a good thing bud, it's just not ready. And yes F1 14 has mid race save, but as my MS wasn't too bad I manged to do a whole race.

    Yea don't get an AMD card, not only do they consume far more power they also run really hot and are nowhere near as good as a 970 or 980

    Eurogamer review OUCH

    TheHemps said: Well it's not. If my brother can play games on it the. Anyone can. He's 28 but knows nothing about settings and bla bla bla. It's as simple as console gaming these days, Nvidia has a program that will set all the settings for you so you don't even have to mess about for ages looking at what your PC can handle. I like my consoles to but when there's a problem you can't do anything about it, atleast on PC you can work around problems ;) I have to be honest, I usually can't stand the way PC gamers talk down to people. If he says it's too complicated and too much hassle for him then thats what he's decided and you can't tell him his opinion is wrong, as no opinion is wrong. However......That being said........Not being able to use a PC in 2014 is like not being able to read a book in 1974. You are illiterate in the modern world. I see where your frustration stems from, everyone should know how to use a PC. And Steam makes it so easy.....But there's just people that haven't realised yet that if you're PC illiterate, you're 21st century illiterate. What frustration? You've got me all wrong.... I'm not just a PC gamer, I also have X1/PS4 and wii u and wasn't trying to force anyone to game on PC, I'm not sure where you got that from  :|  And I'm not sure how I was talking down to him, this is why I don't normally post in this part of the forum, as people take what others are saying completely out of context. To the person who posted after. Actually it doesn't cost twice as much. Places like overclockers.co.uk charge roughly £20 more if you want them to build it, so no it doesn't cost twice as much ;) . It's what I'll probably have to do for my next build due to a medical condition

    No chance with new games.... I have a 780 and only run 1 monitor albeit at 1440p but it's going to start to struggle soon.

    I really don't care what "critics" say, it's just someone's opinion. For me and some others on here who were all sceptical about this game, all love it. The way these turbo cars drive is awesome, and is easily the best of the series.  It's funny how these review sites give Fifa a high rating year on year, yet there's only small changes each time. I love it and that's all I care about, and the fact some mates on here love it to. o:)

    The Game Thread!

    Baa I was in front of Hamilton in Q3 by 0.079 but on his last lap he beat me by 0.150   :( Preparing for a good battle against him in the race now. I'm doing 100% race distance but probably won't be able to do it in one go.

    This is by far the best F1 game Codemasters have made! They really have nailed the feel of these turbo cars. I kept telling myself I wouldn't buy it as I thought it was made just for contractual reasons, but I was wrong and I'm sorry. o:) I think they've improved the AI a lot, as they now fight for position more, I've already had some great long battles. I love the fact you can spin in 4th gear as its what the drivers have been saying this season. The fact this was made on last gen tech is even more impressive. The ai seem to be smarter than a lot of these "next gen" racing games. Yes it's not got awesome graphics, but it's not an ugly game either on PC. FFB still isn't great, but it does feel better using my T500rs compared to my TX wheel (which Codies still haven't added support for)

    It all looks good apart from the gpu. That'll never be enough for 3 monitors. You should get an Nvidia 970 if you can, if not maybe save a bit more so that you can. Do you know what resolution the monitors are?

    The Game Thread!

    good time to do a few test laps and races B) Just did a short race, love the physics and the fact you can spin in 4th gear is awesome as that's what the drivers face this year. Once I finished pushing Rosberg off the track o:) I had a good battle with Alonso until lap 5. I span on the last corner losing my front wing and getting a puncture lol so had to do a whole lap like that, but had fun fighting my way back up the field. The only thing that's annoyed me is the fact it doesn't support the Thrustmaster TX wheel.... So I have to use keyboard in the menus, but can use it to race still. I'm going to switch to my T500rs tomorrow though as I know that works when in the menus :) Right now I'm so glad I bought it, as really I piad the price of a dlc expansion B)

    People finally understanding that PC gaming isn't as expensive as some make out, yes it costs more to build a good PC but games are always cheaper o:)

    Nice to see some positivity here instead of reading thread after thread of people moaning so thanks. I'll be playing it in a few hours once it unlocks on Steam o:)

    The Game Thread!

    I just blank out all the people who say stuff like "what's the point when it's the same as last year" when they haven't played it and the same people buy Fifa every year when that barely changes year on year... I love F1 and they are the main cars I love to drive in sims/games (or any single seater) so I don't care if it's not changed much, tell me what else you can buy for 20 quid and gets hundreds of hours  of fun from? It costs me £3 to get a drink down the pub and that lasts minutes and when I used to go on pub crawls £20 wouldn't get me very far. o:) And reviews are just that said persons opinion, Alien Isolation got some poor reviews and yet I think it's an awesome game.

    Avalaible on steam !!!

    Last year it unlocked 11PM UK time, so between then and 12am I'd say ;)

    Just demand a refund and get it from GMG, if they refuse say you have a screen grab where it says it was instock and as it's clearly not its false advertising  :p
  19. Or you could do both :p Especially if you have a nerdy partner/girlfriend  o:)

    @RevolvingPrawn‌  I need a headstart anyway :p btw last year it unlocked at 11PM so here's hoping it does again o:)

    Har de har :p Should've got it from GMG. Have you ordered from cjs before? Not a scam site is it, why don't you just get a refund and get it from greenmangaming?

    The Game Thread!

    Be honest Dave, the first C word you thought is different.. ;) Chesticles? The one that refers to women's lady parts o:)  I also had problems with tyre wear so couldn't race on legend. I'll see what I'm like with this version, but bet I'm too slow for legend unless I have the perfect setup for each track. Chesticles it is. You are the Jenson Button of F1 2014 ;) I think it was a case of the player having 50% wear rates, while the AI had 100%. They'd still be lapping consistently while you had dropped a second or more from lack of grip. Some unsporting defence worked well to keep them behind though.  LOL.... Yep I'm always moaning about my setup but the bloody team don't listen.....hehe. Let's hope Steam actually unlock it at midnight as they tend to run on "Steam time"  :# Anyone know who Burgay is on Steam? As he sent me a friend request.

    You could do it on 2013, but knowing CM they've probably taken it out ;) But yea sure bud, give me tonight to get used to the handling and whatnot and then I'll be good to race :) Better to be in the same team too!  Yea you'll be number one though :p What difficulty do you normally race on? It's probably on a higher one than me but I'm always up for a challenge. Do you know when it unlocks? Is it midnight?  :p  Do you want a code for F1 race Stars? It's like Mario kart, I already have it but have a spare code lol Shame we can't do a career together on F1 14 racing for the same team, as that would be awesome. Or is that possible? As I've never played it online.... If you do that you'll get no response after 5 bud. Just post the message they sent me saying that they can confirm nobody will receive a code today, it's on the last page bud ;) They've only said that so you don't cancel.... I've got my code now as they've just sent mine so hopefully I should be fine just need to enter it into Steam. The PC version still has Co-op on it I think at least 2013  did the only big thing they've removed is classics So Shopto lied to me..... Silly beeps losing a sale like that. Maybe they took onboard what I told them. After I cancelled it I told them that all other digital distribution stores have sent codes out so they should do the same otherwise more people will cancel and go elsewhere.... Edit: why isn't the C word blocked by the swear filter? Lol

    @RevolvingPrawn‌ I edited my post, is it possible to do a career together on F1? I've never played it online but would be awesome racing for the same team. Ps don't blame me if the game is crap. Hehe.... o:)
