No one excited for Codemasters F1 sim?
Saw an alpha video yesterday and it's looking quite good. The developers
said they are going for sim level but with aids for those that don't like sim and prefer more arcade. They did say it won't be full on sim though because they want it to be fun too and not wiping out in every corner. As usual with Codemasters racing games the graphics are looking spectacular. |

They want to sell their "fun" games to as big an audience as they possibly can which means it has to be arcade like in feel and physics. They will want it to look like it's a simulator so people who don't know any difference will think they can really drive a real F1 car when they play the game. This will increase the sales and they'll get more money ... which happens to be the bottom line. Regards, Mike. |

Go look up the alpha video on youtube. |

Just because it's a difficult game it doesn't necessarily mean it will be realistic. The TOCA racing series Codemasters produced is a good case in point. You can play with certain settings that make the game more difficult but as the physics aren't there to start with it still isn't realistic. I hope I'm wrong and Codemasters make a realistic F1 game but I won't be betting on it. Regards, Mike. |

I don't think they did Toca series too, or did they?. Dirt2 has the physics, it just doesn't have a realistic rally sim packaged with it. |

Yes, they did the 3 Toca games and 2 Indycar series games, although the 2nd Indycar game (2005 series) was really just the completion of the first one which looked incomplete and horrible. |

Well, I like Dirt2 and NFS Shift so maybe I will like their F1 sim too. Both Dirt2 and NFS Shift make me feel more like I am in a real car than any racing sims that have come before them. I just wish they had a more realistic career mode and race length and had more realistic dalmage models. The F1 game I expect wil be more realistic in that way so I am expecting an F1 sim that has both great graphics and more realism. |
