    ...Did you read the news?

    “We talk about accessibility and for us, I think the first and foremost priority is how we can use esports to break down borders and increase accessibility. And I think that the Codemasters game actually does a terrific job of doing that because it still provides an authentic experience without being overly [demanding], I would say, from a difficulty perspective. It provides accessibility, which I think is a good thing.

    But when you think about other strategic objectives that esports within motorsports could potentially fill whether that is the blurring of lines between the virtual and the real, I think that our Codemasters game does a great job but if you wanted to have that more porous movement between both realities, I think that having a sort of a simulation-focussed game does help those objectives"

    Press talk. FOM will never openly critizize CM like the drivers do. 
     

    read the last line. BUT IF YOU WANTED TO HAVE THAT MORE POROUS MOVEMENT BETWEEN BOTH REALITIES, I THINK THAT HAVING A SORT OF A SIMULATION FOCUSSED GAME DOES HELP THOSE OBJECTIVES.

    you have to read between the lines.

    Codemasters have the EXCLUSIVE licence until 2025 with an option if they choose to extend to 2027. 

    With the licence being exclusive unless F1 were to go into a protracted legal case over the contract, don't expect this stand alone 'sim' anytime before 2028. Hence why the F1 guy in the interview said 'long term development' and everyone seems to be overlooking that part lol 

     

    Source: Official stament over EXCLUSIVE contract http://blog.codemasters.com/f1/10/codemasters-extends-formula-1-partnership/

    Nobody knows the legal agreements to the letter. 
     

    and i think if people like Norris, Verstappen and co OPENLY on internet ON VIDEO destroy the game in all it's aspects like that, FOM has an clause in that agreement to take away the exclusive part of that agreement. 
     

    it could be something like QUALITY not beeing up to standards. Eepecially when the real F1 drivers bash it so openly it's not good commercial value for F1 nor CM.

     

    and since the damage has already been done, i an not surprised a statement like this is coming out after such a debacle. 
     

    drivers also have performance clause's in their contracts, so why wouldn't there be something like this in an exclusvity contract. Especially after what happened.

    If they lacked the manpower before they don't now, the obvious path would be to split E-sports from the main game.

     

    Leclerc, Max and co "killing" F1 2019 might've triggered this.

    Also "long term future", give it to me now FIA. 

    Funny thing, a couple of people on the forums know I've been in contact with F1/FOM/Liberty Media complaining about the state of 2019 "official" licensed game and especially the way CM treats the fanbase (us the community) with several links to forums where CM is beeing the target of that critisism and never took the energy of defending themselves or reacting. The whole conversation was taken seriously by F1 because of the proof i linked with it,

    not so long after this, a statement like that is beeing made. Somehow I feel like FOM/LM is doing what CM should have done all that time. LISTEN TO FANS AND/OR THIS COMMUNITY AND RESPONS ACCORDINGLY.

    Believe me that a statement like that from FOM is a kick in the nutsack of CM, because remember a statement from mister DOESNTMATHER? Handling that SIMULATION drivers LOVE? 
     

    and now FOM says themselves it's nothing like SIMULATION. But more ARCADE! 
     

    again empty words/lies from CM proven by actions from FOM themselves.

    To comment on the UDP stuff, I have an update.

    Our plan is to release this after the BETA is complete, and we have a 'locked in' spec. It's mostly there in truth, we just want it to be right of course. We are confident that, all goes well, we can release earlier than game release for sure. We'll get it available as soon as we can, we just don't want discussion generated on the main forums about the BETA, which has happened in the past.

    But to answer your question @AlexTT, yes we will make it available before release and plan to as soon as we can as long as all goes well.

     

    Yeah well, frankly I'm not putting in any effort anymore to build to anything related to CM and their politics how they treat and handle serious community members.

    why should i? I like the community, but to build something, I have to buy it to test it, and after this proven "BETA screw people like us who critisize and build cool stuff for the community over for people who arent active in any way with low post count, who just registered, no upvotes and all that ********" 

    CM can shove it up their ass

    Alex, I'm more than happy to discuss with you in PM's as you are someone who contributes to these forums. Therefore, I can understand your frustration. I think 'evades critical people' is a little unfair, as they are plenty of forum users who are critical, as my notifications keep reminding me. 😛 

    Just, for my sanity, could you give me a week. I think that's a fair enough thing to ask for. We're just inundated at the moment, and I'm 'somewhat' busy/going mad 👍

    Well everybody is entitled to his/her opinion, so is mine. You can find it unfair, i may find it exactly what it is. The rest i will maybe discuss in pm with you, but i don't see the point why I should tbh. 
     

    for me CM has once again proven how they handle people who openly critize them and are negative towards them because of their own behaviour. 
     

    and when i see replies of forum user who just have LITTLE TO NONE posts or whatever on this forum beeing chosen for the beta, that's the cherry on top. That proves just that a lot of serious and critical people are exluded at the cost of the "not so critical and new users" 

    screw the people who actually try ro give feedback whatsoever and make contributions in any way like the dashes. 
    people who actually know what they are talking about.

    that's why i won't buy the 2020 edition for a loooong time, or it had to be 1 buck or so. This is why I'm done with CM and their "friend politics"

     

    and @BarryBL I'm far from frustrated. I'm just overjoyed that CM has again confirmed everything I always said. Truth hurts i know.

    From previous experience this stuff is accessible and there is feedback from the beta, so I hope you applied.

    Like I said, not accepted. They rather use people who almost don't post on here, or arent critical, in stead of people who speak their mind and also contribute a lot on stuff like simhub dashboards and leaderboards and do actually have a post count and high upvotes.

    So it's proven once again that CM rather select a lot of people who have none to low input and critisism then people like us. 
     

    point made, and proven to be truth again. This is how CM evades critical people and excludes them from beta's because they can't handle critism.

    Allright guys and dolls, hasn't there been a single post in one of the 40 pages here that told you to be patient and just wait for the mail, that begging at this stage doesn't help anymore and neither does moaning or an occasional bribe and that those selected can't be extorted to give up there place since they are non transferable. So please, please keep your fingers crossed, stop asking, guessing or assuming and wait for the mail. In a couple of days or so the owls will bring the mail and the magic can start (and another 1200 posts will be added here, 900 happy ones and 300 not so happy)

    And 1 heartattack if I get chosen🤣 else just the same reaction as all years, "just as I expected"😉 its beginning to get predictable each year so I learned not to expect anything.

    I'm just curious, not offending or try to be offensive in any way. Just trying to get some of the logic in the lobbies people make.

    - 45/90min. Practice / full or short quali / 3! Or 5! Lap race ???? WHY A 3 OR 5 LAP RACE with such ling practice and quali

    -REALISTIC car performance -> Same. WHY? It's online, i always create equal lobbies. 
     

    -Training, no quali, 50% race. Why no quali, especially with 50% race.

    - no training full or short qualy, 3 or 5 lap race. 
     

    and there are a lot more combinations which I can't wrap my head around. And when someone sets CUSTOM weather, I would like to see what he setup. If its a 80% rain race, i would like to pass and give someone else my spot.

     

    another STUPID/DUMB thing, when you create a lobby, and don't want anyone else to join, MAKE IT CLOSED IN STEAD OF OPEN. Open means exactly what it says, open to EVERYONE. Don't go beeing the ***** who can't even setup a lobby right, and then with everyone ramming and bashing people who are not in your group. When YOU set a lobby to open, then be a big boy and behave like an adult. I see things like ramming, or mass leaving the lobby. Those are just dikc moves because someone in your group doesn't know how to create a private lobby, and other people don't need to suffer for their stupidity. Creating a lobby isn't rocketscience!

     

    like I said, I just can't get the logic behind some lobbies.

    F1 2018 was way better than 2019. No joke. In every way. 2019 was a 2017 reskin with the exact same bugs and errors and a bit upgrade which took them 2 whole years it seems🤥

    They broke the handling model, pad vs wheel difference to big, assists are way faster than no assists, and so on.

    2018 was much more of a pleasure to drive.

    Hahahahahaha! Arrogance at its finest.

    There are far superior games out there in terms of physics that have VR, granted the f1 games look good, but the games with the superior physics and VR don't look that shabby!

    I think the codemasters f1 series would benefit from new leadership, maybe then it can live up to the hyperbole...

    Finally someone who shares my thoughts...

    remember last year? We got pretty clouds! But a stable framerate is too much to ask. He just doesn't have high standards when it comes to producing a complete package, same with the tracks and all the other ********. 
     

    in stead of beeing honest and saying it's just too much work for the few people who use VR, he comes with another ******** excuse. It's always excuses with this guy. If this is so intense graphics engine, how come the framerate in 19 is all over the place? Why does it looks cartoony? 
     

    dirt looks 10 times better, AND THEY HAVE VR. With more detailed cars and tracks. And F1 in this state is too heavy? What a joke! It's just the same blablabla, just a different day.

    And what you said, time to switch leadership and place someone who actually cares for QUALITY, in stead of filling it with useless functions, while all that time and resources should be used to fix all the issues from previous years which carried over. 

    One thing he seems to miss is that people don't care about the quantity of options in a game, when the QUALITY SUCKS BALLS! 

     

    great minds think alike!

    I think somehow your pedals are interfering. Since t3pa is standard rj12? I believe? Perhaps something wrong in the converter to usb which causes the wheel to do that? Just thinking with you guys. 
     

    but updating all of your drivers is always a good place to start. You said you THINK so, so why not convert thinking to knowing for sure?😉 especially with all those windows updates, there has to be just 1 nasty driver to **** everything up

    Will pass on @AlexTT, seems sensible. UDP stuff is on my to do list, I'll see what I can do.

    Thnx! Would be great so we can get the stuff out on release and not start programming on release.

    @BarryBL, can you inform by @Hoo if it's possible that the UDP data for 2020 can be released a bit early this year? A few weeks/days before release would be awesome, so we can build dashes and leaderboards and have them ready when it releases.

     

    thnx in advance!
