Flying Grosjean achievement?

Well, to be fair, I'm used to the precision of a wheel. Someone who uses a joypad all the time can judge whether it's an improvement. I don't think they could do ANYTHING to match how the game feels on a wheel.
... I just hope it still feels as good with a wheel.
Can i recommend this as official song of the thread? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHhrZgojY1Q

Can we not use some sort of FXAA/SMAA injector on PC to fix the piss filter?
Edit: I hope this game isn't nerfed on my GTX 680 in a similar fashion to Showdown.

Skipped F1 2011, so I hope the jump from F1 2010 will feel a bit bigger. At the very least there are some new tracks.
Korea [good], India [excellent] and Austin [jury is still out].

No Turkey or Nurburgring though
Oh hell no. I absolutely hate that track.

I thought handling was supposed to be better in 2011?
Woohoo my subtitle! haha
And yuck Singapore, I HATE that track. I just CAN'T drive around that track for some reason. I have no problem going around Monaco super fast but I will hit every single walls in Singapore. Not a huge fan of Korea too...
Haven't played a lot on India but what I saw was all right.

Bit of a divide on that. Some people think 2010 is better, but after playing it again recently I think it's dog shit and 2011 was a huge improvement.
The brakes feel a lot like 2010. Like I said, I need to use a wheel before I judge, but I'm not fond of it at the moment.
Singapore is not a new track, and India is awesome.
Some dude doing a 1:21.9 in qualifying (-3 secs normal pace), looks like the warning system is non-existent on certain turns.
You mean non-existent on all turns.
:/
Seriously right, what the hell have Codemasters been doing for a year? Aside from changing the handling balance for pad users, I'm having trouble finding any differences between this game and F1 2011.
Sure the menus look pretty, but that's about it.
Good point.
Here's Hamilton's pole lap from the weekend, the difference in kerbs is pretty drastic. You wouldn't even need a warning system with these beasts.
I forget that the cars aren't equal in this demo. So he's basically done that with a bottom-3 car :/ Best I can muster is a 23.9.
Fixed for accuracy.
The warning system must be off, right???
Never noticed this, you are right, incredible, curbs are basically non-existent in Monza. Is like that for every other tracks in f1 2011?

Pad handling is good all apart from twitchy oversteer when trying to correct down a straight, otherwise I am taking corners like a pro, it's like the reaction speed of 2011 is there but because of the new grip it feels better, 2010 to compare feels like a tank.
Penalty system is much more strict this time, touching another car to have them spin off a few seconds later gives you a penalty, in 2010 and 2011 you can pass a car, push them into a wall and get away with it.

Neither is Korea.
I don't recall you being able to turn off the warning system in 2010 or 2011.

If I'm not mistaken, you could make the rules less strict. I don't remember if only for online matches, though.
The rules are set to "reduced".
I think there's hope in relation to the physics model because the fuel and tyre sim could indeed be set to OFF and that changes everything.
Still, 1 year for that, I think it's a joke, if online isn't pitch perfect, I ain't buying.

Even with reduced rules, corner cutting like that should not exist, oh codemasters...

I always thought reduced or off rules meant some of the main, basic rules still applied.
I'm going in with an open mind but even that I don't think is enough. Coming from the likes of GT5 and Race 07, even their own Dirt 3 game. F1 games have always been of a bad quality.
Sadly, there's always a very good game buried under all the bugs and shortcomings of Codemasters. But that only helps to annoy me more than make me hopeful for 2012.

The corner cutting is fucking embarrassing.
What exactly have they been doing for a year? And I thought last night maybe this OT was a little hyperbolic...
It's no wonder no PR people for this game have been posting about it here. Helios has even jumped ship to Turn10...

really? wow
Wait what?
Oh God! Don't tell me that the "hit the kerb and the car magically spins" returned as well?
It appears the OT title is wrong. This is 2010 + 1.

Maybe that wasn't common knowledge yet. Oops. (It's only what I've heard, not 110% sure on it. He's definitely left Codies though)
ANYWAY, F1 2012 is awesome folks yeah?

What!?
Holy shit, didn't know that.
Fuck man, Codies going to shit..
Time to go back to your roots Codemasters. Forget this aiming at the casuals bullshit and bring back the true Colin Mcrae and Toca Race Drivers series...
According to reviewers, yes it is. "Dark Souls of the racing games"
What? That's Season Challenge, right? I believe Career Mode (full season) is still there or I'm just assuming it's there?
They can't be that stupid to remove the ability of doing a real F1 season in a F1 game.
Whaaaaaaaat?!

isn't that just for the challenge mode? since only 11 races or so have been officially run.
