Game isn't for me and I'm so sad about it

Had 2 hours of it last night and gave in . Although it detects my wheel it dosnt let me mess about with advanced wheel settings . Makes the steering so light and feels so horrid at speed . the AI is nuts and dosnt seem to detect me on the corners . The AA solutions make the game a blur , just having to deal with Smaa rather than both ... What is Taa? Or are codemasters dyslexic and can't spell txaa? a lot I don't like , and yet I'm pleasantly fond of the new engine despite crappy AA solutions . Looks very good in the rain and has so,e very details assets . But that's as far as it goes . Needs a lot of work

Err did you not even think to change force feed back settings, ?
The ai is aggressive but not overly, just be aware. In fact the AI are just right.
Game needs more than 2 hours to get the best out of it, its not a pick up and blast racing game, you have to work at it.

I love the way that in menu at any point if you press a button on the wheel it assumes you're using a controller to navigate and if you touch the keyboard it changes to that. A lot of people have been moaning about that because they don't realise.
Same with AI straight line speed and the rev indicator.
People moaning because the AI is too fast and the rev indicator stuck on full. Well duh that's because you're changing up too late.

Tbh I think this game has really separated the men from the boys.

I just hope they don't change the game play too much because of the complainers.

As for the career mode and safety car, not exactly the most important parts of the game to.me.

Yes there are some bugs, AI and blue flags AI pitting together, just fix those please.

Lol ... Concidering I mash out assetto , project cars and alike I can setup a wheel very adequate so thanks for that ... And you obviously haven't read that I don't get access to the advanced wheel options . At the end of the race I use the keyboard over the wheel to navigate ... Very common sense and no it dosnt auto switch so your wrong there ... Instead of taking everything someone says as worthlessness , concentrate in the game yourself and enjoy it as you obviously are doing .

Can you please post a screenshot just so that I can see what you're talking about.
I haven't had any trouble accessing any of the wheel options so I don't know what's going on there.
What wheel have you got?
 
Finally I have both assetto and PC both are a lot less finished than this IMO.
Just personal preference I guess.

When you say Max out does that mean you haven't maxed the game out or something?
 
Clearly the rest of the internet is wrong, there are no bugs no glitching no flashing graphics, my screen doesn't look like its been smeared in Vaseline unless you use the SMAA setting, we are all just making it up.

The Ai isn't a useless heap of junk, that treats the race tracks like you are not even there. Your team mate will just drive straight into the back of you even on teh dam straights..It also doesn't do qualy times in race trim, again I must have dreamt that.

Just like every other F1 game its a total master piece with a superb v1.0 build.
To top it all off, it plays 100 times better and gives a better experience on my 360 pad compared to my G25. Next gen simulator my arse.

Either you got a one of build no one else got, or you are working for codies PR team.


They should have the licence stripped from there studio and given to a developer that could do F1 proud. Even EA did a job 100 times better than this. With there version back in teh late 90's early 2000's

Well I'm sorry to tell you that I did a qually at Hungary tonight and it was brilliant, by the way I am no expert at all, but I have been playing f1 games since the original micropose gp .

For me this is by far the best.

Car set up makes a difference, gear change timing makes a difference, AI are hard but totally manageable.

When I started playing I felt the same about the AI but now I can handle them.

I have yet to see any evidence of the blurry mess, it looks great to me and I am comparing it with assetto and PCars.

Yesterday, did a race at Hungary, cocked up the start and fought back to third, fantastic.

I think it's the moaners are expecting some sort of forza type experience, I don't know...

But please show me a blurry screenshot maybe I'm not that fussy.

Edit: I guess not as you don't appear to have the game, ...what is the matter with you

I'm sorry what? Forza isn't a sim, so why would anyone expect something based on that?

Same here, I guess we expect different things from our racing games. Personally, I like my sims. If the team at iRacing where allowed to take their engine and slap it up with all the liveries and tracks laser scanned by use of the F1 license, I would be a very happy man. That would be the best F1 game ever released since f1gp and f1gp2.
 
I was quite looking forward to this coming out but apart from the more feisty AI there's plenty disappointing me based on youtube videos alone.

Lack of safety car when in previous games
Lack of car damage, losing the front wing appears difficult, losing the nose cone appears nigh impossible.
Each minor collision/tap/massive crash results in a compulsory driver hand stretch, anyone would think the driver was suffering eternal cramp!
 
The AI is a nightmare in Monaco. I've never had to defend so much in an F1 game before, at one point it was 3 of us side by side into mirabeu - not sure of the spelling - because I had epic wheel spin off the massive bump at the top.
 
Tbh, starting third makes you realise how skilful the guys are to get around the first corner, and at least maintain position, its not easy.

Fair enough, I haven't tried iracing and probably never will because of the cost model.

F1 2015 just hits the right note for me, I don't see the point of a safety car, don't care about damage, the AI is hard but fair.

The tyre degradation is great, car set up is just enough detail for me, always get lost in the more complex options.

Yes there are lots of stupid bugs, today the Ferrari in my mirror had no driver, but it still drove well.
 
Can anyone help me with toe and camber angles? it would seem a higher toe angle on the front would give me a more responsive front end but if I go all the the way to the left on the slide bar so only 0.05 degrees I think it is. This seems to give me better grip?
 
To be fair, a 7950 doesn't really cut it these days.

Have you got all the settings on ultra or high.
