  1. Do any of you happen to follow Alex Gillon on Twitter, or do you see his videos on YouTube? Jeez, he's annoying. I think I'm gonna unfollow him. I know I said earlier that I was a bit disappointed at the lack of info revealed on the F1 2014 game yesterday, but still, that doesn't mean that I'm not very excited to see what the new game is like. 

    Anyway, this Alex guy has just been slagging off Codies and basically Lee and Luke all afternoon about dropping the classic content, and the fact that they apparently haven't given a good enough reason for it. Well Luke uploaded a Q&A thing on the blog explaining in detail the reason for the lack of classic content, but apparently that wasn't a good enough answer. He also proceeded to say how Codies were 'silent' and rubbish at interacting with people. 

    Bullsh*t! I think you'll find that Codemasters, and therefore Lee and Luke are extremely open with people, and they go out of their way in terms of interacting with people. Personally I think Lee is a bit of a legend, and he was great when sorting out my prize bundle for the Easter competition. Heck, GRID Autosport was basically all made from the responses of the customers and it was what they wanted. Ben was so open on the forums in particular during the time running up to the release.

    Well this Alex guy then later went onto say 'I really feel sorry for the @Codemasters community guys sometimes. They get SO much sh*t and 99.9% of it is nothing to do with them..'. Yes Al, they do, so why were you saying 'SO much sh*t' about them earlier? Give them a break...

    I'm not saying he shouldn't complain, because there's stuff that's been announced that I'm not completely happy about, but the fact he was just going on and on and on about it for hours made me get on my nerves and I felt like voicing my thoughts. 

    Rant over.


  2. Well, as I was away I had to wait until this afternoon to watch the race, but I knew the result and everything.

    That meant I probably didn't think it was as exciting as other people did, because I knew what was coming, but it was still quite exciting! Amazing stuff by Ricciardo. He really is a star of the future, and Hamilton too, amazing recovery from the pit lane and the spin, but the Safety Car really helped him, and he beat Nico too which is pretty funny :p I had a bit of a chuckle when Seb spun, and when Grosjean hit the wall too, so a great race! 

    Can't believe we have to wait nearly 3 weeks for the next race... 


  3. Well I've been keeping my eye out a lot on the DiRT section and one of the members there recently visited Codies to have a look at what they were doing. They obviously can't say much but apparently it looks incredible. I can't wait


  4. Oh great, the game was revealed just when I started my 24 hour coach journey home from Italy. I've got so much stuff to read through...

    Can't be arsed to write tonnes now, I will do later, but my first impressions of the game aren't great. In fact, I'm pretty disappointed at the lack of info revealed. I haven't surveyed the F1 2014 forums yet (help) so there may be more info there, but the game looks like an update on F1 2013. It looks exactly the same. No proper gameplay released, no sounds (I can only assume it's rubbish). No big improvements which help the players experience. They're not going to GamesCom either, or EGX, which seems pretty odd as they usually do. And it's on old-gen consoles too! I don't have a PS4 yet but I'm honestly a bit shocked that we have to wait a year for a next-gen game.

    I'm looking forward to the new DiRT game to be honest. That should be and probably will be mega.


  5. Fun day would be waking up very late, playing the PS3 with mates, going on the computer, TV with pizza and coke, films, lovely

    Favourite channel is probably Sky Sports F1

    If my life ended in one hour, I would probably do something stupid which I've never done before, for a thrill. I can't be punished as my life ends in an hour anyway, so I'd probably do that


  6. Sorry for such a basic question but this is something that is really bugging me. I've been posting to forums for many years and have used the CM forums for a long time too but in this new forum how the hell do I quote a post that I want to comment on? I click the 'quote' option but it just takes me to the usual blank area to start typing. I am sure that a couple of weeks ago it worked as I expected it to.

    Am I  missing something here?

    Thanks for any replies.

    Just click on 'Quote' and click the cursor down to the area where you want to type. It should work fine, it does for me.


  7. Vettel really is having a rubbish season when you consider that he has had the same amount of pole positions and race wins as I have.

    But I really can't wait for the next 5 years of Formula 1. I know I said it in another thread somewhere previously, but I honestly think that we are now starting to see the true next generation of great F1 drivers. 

    At the moment you would have to say it is probably Vettel, Hamilton, Alonso, Rosberg, Raikkonen, Button

    In the next five years I can easily see Ricciardo, Bottas, Hulkenberg, Perez, Magnussen, Kvyat and maybe Bianchi joining them and fighting at the top end for race wins and championships.


  8. Yeah, I think the game will be next gen. I think it was just a tad too early for GRID Autosport and I think they took the right decision with that. Now the consoles have been out for a year nearly so I think it's the right time to switch


  9. looking forward to them releasing the "news" that we have all been waiting for! i just hope that they are making this on ps4/xbox one but even if not im still buying it!!! as long as they keep us informed and keep posting regular updates then i cant wait! 

    Yeah, I can't wait much more either haha :D I'm sure when they do release the news it will be pretty big. Hopefully there'll be a good selection of screenshots, hopefully a video trailer, and I'm sure Luke will cram as much info as possible into the blog post, and hopefully we can have some Q&A thread on the forum where we can ask questions and hopefully the developers can answer some. They had that for GRID Autosport and it was really good.
