Winterlightsong 0 Posted August 3, 2015 There is no hiding the fact that I'm a noob! This is my first post...so please be kind :)...then again be whatever you are!I just want to congratulate Codemasters on a wonderful Formula One game! I bought it on Friday past and I have done full race distances on Melbourne and Malaysia with full replays afterwards! AI is more aggressive but it's FAIR! The engineer is spot on with his tyre calls...I LOVE my engineer...if he was female then romantic interludes would be integrated into the game, Bioware style! Each race I have done has been a solid 60fps with no drops...I've had no crashes or glitches and I'm 20 hours into the game! Handling is awesome! I use a controller...couldn't afford a wheel after spending 1200 pounds building this machine...handling is so consistent now compared to other games, I use a Xbox One controller and it works wonderfully!Graphics are a mixed bag...but generally they are decent! Certainly it's the best looking F1 game ever made...but the static crowd/officials (only seen in replays) need some work!Race pace for AI is consistent in the wet and the dry!...that was a huge plus for me! The AI also pit properly...I still remember the nightmare that was F1 2010!!!A thousand people will criticise this game for what it doesn't have...BUT what it does have is FREAKING AWESOME! LOVING IT CODEMASTERS!!(And...no...I don't work for Codemasters, but I bet they pay more than Tesco's) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Winterlightsong 0 Posted August 3, 2015 Box1Racer...you're a real charmer! Why are you on this forum??? Are you there to slate everyone who makes a positive opinion on the game?? Do you even work...or are you a benefit case? My wife is a learning disability nurse with a Health Studies degree...you are on a sticky wicket with that comment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winterlightsong 0 Posted August 3, 2015 Okay, I just wanted to share my joy and happiness about this game and connect with the community on positive levels! However, Box1Racer kind of destroyed that...so I'll go back to my game and let you guys mump and moan! Enjoy!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winterlightsong 0 Posted August 3, 2015 We are a spoilt society...we expect, we demand, we expect more...I started playing games on a ZX81 and I had zero expectations...after the ZX Spectrum I loved typing in my own code...made me feel involved! I have witnessed the 'birth-pangs' of gaming...yet gamers today are spoiled beyond control...some will NEVER EVER be happy...a lot of people enjoy complaining...and complaining becomes addictive...before you know it EVERYTHING IS WRONG!!!F1 2015 is not a simulator, nor does it try to be, it is a game to be enjoyed by gamers! It is the best F1 game ever made...even Geoff Crammonds F1 comes up short! Games are escapism...they don't need to be 100% realistic because gamers are looking for the unimaginable and the untouchable...they want to live in their fantasies...games that get to close too reality always fail...reality is to real!

Liaveil 141 Posted August 3, 2015 It's a real wonder why there's not a lot of communication on this forum. So many members are so pleasant and welcoming..You'll get a lot of that on here sadly if you're not relentlessly negative. Welcome though, regardless. Good to see a positive person for a change.

Especially when we've paid £50 for it.Its great that you're enjoying the game. It does have some great racing qualities, and the AI are impressive.However, since you have only recently bought the game, I'd say hold off on your expression of joy until you've played a little more. You'll soon find all the bugs. People on here aren't complaining over nothing. The game is incomplete, untested and poorly designed.When you consider what the 360 releases had, this game is empty!! So much has been removed. What we're left with barely functions beyond hot-lapping. What's here to keep you entertained until next year? Well...if you don't like racing games, then F1 2015 isn't going to float your boat! ..."I demand..." has gone on holiday to the fairies in the trees!...they demand a sun-tan in recompense!
