My 2 cents

Recommended Posts

This is all a catch 22. While im happy that coddies are right on the ball in patching, the game should have never been released in the state it is/was in. Although i see ppl saying "this bug needs to be fixed asap", the "well this patch has created this new bug". Cant have it both ways, im fully prepared to wait an extra week or so for a patch that fixes things without breaking others (lets face it, the game is broken anyway). 
What i would recommend, and id like peoples thoughts on this. When /if this game is 90 odd percent bug free (will never be 100) coddies should use it and just change the drivers, livery, small handling mechanics, brand it F1 2018 and release it to us for 1/2 the price of this years game. 
1) We get a game that SHOULD be ALMOST bug free out of the box. 
2) We could possibly get this game way earlier in the F1 season (just patch it where needed regarding reliability and such) 
3) I think coddies owe use next years game at 1/2 price regardless. 
Thoughts??

Coddies? Lol, A bit fishy..  :D

i think Codies will continue to evolve the series as they have for the last 7 years.
Some years have larger steps than others but we'll always be charged full price and the bugs will always be there on release. It's the same with most video game developers.

Yes even codies  lol... I have no doubt that we will have to pay full price for a bugged game next year. That's just the way they work. Having said that, after the disaster that this has been, my idea has some merit lol. Either that or its time to pass the baton to a different developer.

The Idea is actually pretty good but they won't do it because why get 30 bucks when you can get 60? But I would definetly welcome the Idea of just getting a "car update" and adding some stuff here and there. The handling is already perfect in my opinion, doesn't need a change there.

I don't know if anyone truly tested it in-depth after the beta but all this stuff you read here wasn't seen on the beta.
Yeah i know the online bug and stuff didnt appear in the beta. Just if this game gets to near 100% id love for this to be next years game with a few updates, out of the box and BANG we can race right away. @Arongy  yeah ive shelved the game. Well i just got home and downloaded the 1.05 patch so restarting another career and see how it goes. @Flazh92 yeah i dont hold much hope of it actually happening but to me its a win win,, we get an ALMOST complete game out of the box and Codemasters win back our support. Ill give a new career a go later tonight and see how the latest patch goes.
