***Official Formula One 2011 Thread***

ooo im excited. Sounding very good!

"As in last year's game, they can sometimes move to defend too early, giving you the chance to overtake them on the outside, but this happens a lot less in F1 2011. The AI drivers are also much more consistent across all of the circuits in this year's game. You no longer find that they are too fast at some tracks or too slow at others, and they certainly don't struggle in fast corners like they did in F1 2010. "

The main criticism seems to be that it isn't very accessible to a non-F1 fan (to me this is a good thing) and some of the tracks are very bland, especially if you stop anywhere on them (well, I don't plan to be stopping and many of the F1 tracks are bland in real life too e.g Bahrain).

Quick question.

Does anyone have any news on the replay's? Are they proper real life F1 camera angles or same angles CM came up with last year?

Yes, there are proper F1 replays (I posted a link to confirmation somewhere in here) - apparently they haven't included ALL the camera locations from the tracks, but a good number of them.

I've been asking about this on the official forum ever since '10 came out. The devs said they were adding proper trackside camera angles but its looking like were stuck with the same old arcadey flying cams :mad:

I've enjoyed watching replays for as long as I've been playing racing games and this is almost a dealbreaker for me. God I bloody hate those Dirt style replays, they have no place in an F1 game. Take rfactor, average looking game but the proper trackside cameras make replays a joy to watch, especially with a good F1 mod.

That's nice to hear. I'll still be waiting for Player reviews before I believe it though.

Exactly. Glad I'm not the only one. I still have some rFactor replays on my HDD that get a watch now and then.

This should be a no brainer. They should be F1 style replays in an F1 game. This was/is a major annoyance in F1 2010.
 
His videos are decent but he needs to tone down the Brundle factor. He drones on about understeer and oversteer all the time, sounds like those car bores you see at trackdays. If he was talking about a sim then fair enough but I'd rather he just gave his views on the game in general.
 
just preorderd from play.my next few months are going to be busy.f12011 and bf3.I had better sweeten the misses up now because she wont see much of me soon.lol
 
I honestly wouldnt take notice of anyones review who arent F1 fanatics. That guy complains because the rules are more technical, That to me is a good thing.

I mean its like me doing a review of NHL 12, i dont understand the sport so any critisicim i would have wouldnt be fair


Can you remember when CM got the licensce and we all thought it was going to become like GRiD? Just remember what couold of happend!
 
Good find anuraj :)

I agree with stoke1863, "too technical" or "not accessible to not F1 fans" is a good thing imo.

Will be interesting to see what it is like with all assists switched off. Sounds tricky with the new rules.
