Such a shame our championship is on PC DR2 I'm on Xbox, same for F1 2019. Also, I like to consider myself a retired esports player, despite never quite getting out of grassroots level 😄 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StephanGPYT 20 Posted April 30 It looks like there will only be 3 ERS modes in this year's game. Or maybe a fourth one which is not usable in time trial. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If this is true hopefully it'll stop the extreme ERS micro-managing. I'd also like to see mode 4 as an actual overtake button instead of a separate mode that you have to scroll in and out of before and after the straight.

There are already 3 ers mode. If you consider low, medium and high. Mode 4 is overtake, 5 is holap and 0 is recharge. 2 of them shouldn't be used in the race and the third overtake is situational. The problem is that mircimanaging ers is better than using 1, 2 and 3 as presets and the rest as situational for qualify, fastest lap, safety car and overtake...

I'd also like to see mode 4 as an actual overtake button instead of a separate mode that you have to scroll in and out from before and after the straight. I'm still hopeful for a true-to-life mode where the ERS charging and deployment are programmed by the team (player) according to the track, conditions, etc. Plus overtake button. Because the AI are starting to become aware that they do not get penalties for ignoring blue flags. 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their behavior is not that unrealistic but the difference is that in real life a lapped driver finishes the turn and moves out of the way. In the game they park the car on the apex and mid turn. Qyalify is a complete mess though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HDR10 155 Posted April 30 Nice. I've gotten plenty of laps in on Zandvoort on ACC, so I know what to expect from the track. Looking forward to seeing/driving Hanoi for the first time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hamilton was stuck behind a back marker who went past 7 blue flags before finally moving over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I grinned from ear to ear because it WAS cockpit, not how good it was. Cockpit view in any promotional trailer is hope for us.

The best view of all is when you have a helmet view cam and your view itself looks to the apex before each corner. It's kind of game changing as it feels very immersive but also helps beginners or people new to a track when to turn in. The best implementation imo is in project cars where you can control how much the view turns in. There is an annoying view of helmet lower part of the screen but meh I can deal with that. I'm sure you guys have a similar view in cockpit? Dangit can't remember. Anyway no matter how and why you included if the moment was super cool. Cool is where cockpit view needs to be rather than having a reputation of being for pros only. You ARE the driver when in cockpit view if only we could make it more beginner friendly. Adding some kind of bonus peripheral vision would be kinda cool. Thanks for the video anyway mate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even Lando Norris got his real life engineer to help with the setup and could not eliminate the issue in the game. Spending hundreds of hours in the game is what possibly makes me think that the understeer is not an issue anymore.
