F1 Mobile Racing

Recommended Posts

hey folks... sooo that's what they were doing. if you did not hear they just released new IOS/Android F1 game caled F1 Mobile Racing. so they have been working on mobile f1 game instead of fixing f1 2018 console/pc game. 

f1 2018 MultiPlayer mode is completely unplayable. there is no point in listing all the bugs, first there are too many, second they can't and they don't want to fix it anyways... but just a fact that they released such utterly unplayable game, took your money and then did literally nothing to fix it (so many patches where there but first of all, they only try to fix minor issues, and second, they say they fixed something but in reality they don't (like cars spawning on top of each other, etc.)), but moved on to make this completely unnecessary mobile game... is just a slap in your face folks... 

there... just wanted to let you know you were all slapped in the face by bugmusters <3 

so since this is general discussion how do you feel about it? are you happy there is a new f1 mobile game or would you rather that they had used those resources to fix this game?
For example, last night i won 25% race. started p2. guy on p1 had bad start. overtook him on start before turn 1 in Germany. was leading whole race. only after pit I was p3 for short time, lap or two, and when I crossed finishing line after 17 laps without any, literally any penalty i was moved to p2. P frickin TWO!!! even in standings there was no penalty... but still i was sitting in p2. so in my opinion and my experiance so far you MUST love this game. it's so amazing. I want to play more and more and more. It's so enjoyable I want to quit my job and just play this game. and when you see there are new products by bugmasters mine heart rejoiced and im sooo happy. i can't wait to play that on my phone!

I think there are too many of these threads :p

I play PS4 though and its not that buggy in career mode so I'm happy, the main ones are weird quali but the race is more natural. And the AI not getting wear which affects Monao and Singapore a bit but apparently by other threads this may have been fixed, I've downloaded the patch but not played yet, will find out in an hour or so, if that is fixed there is just the quali times.
Sure online is bad with the penalty system but what people aren't seeing is the new direction they are going, everyone wants the complete package before its even begun, these systems take time but at least they have implemented it, now the foundation is layed it can be built up and tweaked. I can wait for this as online has always been a hardship with torpedo guys etc. Good things come to those who wait.. Not too long though..

well @ChironTheseus , I'm happy there are people like you who are enjoying the game. I already said it, and I'll say it again, it's such a shame that this game is actually not that bad in its core and that's why you can enjoy SP. But if you are selling MP experience as well then you can not just come and say, yeah sorry MP is unplayable, go and play SP. 
I literally bought this game primary to play MP. 
And its not torpedo guys who make it unplayable. its the game! if someone spines, you go by and get invalid overtake, u get time penalty and your race is effectively over.  if you spend so much time and effort to win but game is like, naaah, lets give this win to someone else. if you wait literaly 60% of the time. if lobby is braking so offten that you can not have, in average, 2 races in a row without breaking so that you have to alt+tab and force restart the game. if people can literally, when driving side by side, push you into wall without getting penalty and you get penalty for that. and worst thing is i could go on for hours. 

And I know there is far too many topics like this, but how is that a problem and it's not a problem that they are selling unplayable game?
there are just too many bugs so in my book its understandable that people are complaining. and the more we are complaining, bigger are chances that suits in bugmuster company will put more resources into fixing it.
And I know im coming out as someone who only complains but the fact is I am huge f1 fan, i love racing f1 cars, and all i want is to have playable game. and I hope more of us complain, bigger chances are they will do something about it.

i dont think that the same guys working in mobile version.
probably not... but its the same company so it's about where do you spend your resources. if you have this game that is still not fixed and you go and work on new one then it just shows that you are not interested in your consumers but just in money. I remember, not that long ago, community stood together and showed to EA what they think about that attitude in gaming industry. 
I know that companies need to make money, but there should be some limits. and again, this is just a slap in the face to all of us who paid for f1 2018 game <3

The game is created by the Southam studio (At least judging from Chris' selfie from Codemasters Southam). The F1 games have always been created at Codemasters Birmingham. These teams do completely different stuff as Southam does the GRID, DIRT, Micro Machines, Toybox Turbos... and now this it seems.

There is basically a 0% chance the developers of F1 Mobile Racing would work on the F1 games.
