Codemasters F1 2011 - F1Technical Leagues

Just wondered if any users fancied a friendly race?

If you promise you won´t buy 2012.

I *still* can't get used to the tail happiness in 2011. My brain says "I know F1 drivers take this corner flat, I'll take it flat", and the game says "nah, you need two downshifts for that one".

[ajdavison2]

Haha why not Nando? And yeah I know what you mean Beelsebob, I'm not sure if it's a matter of set up, track rubbering, conditions, driving style, equipment etc. We all know how much difference these parameters make! Anyway if anyone fancies starting a party, my GT is D4VISON92

[kebab]

You use standard controler or speed wheel, just want to know.

Thx

The wheel

The reviews where mixed for this....so I'm not sure I want to fork out even 20 quid for something that's going to be replaced in a few months.
Do you have Forza 4?

[ajdavison2]

I dont, well for me it was well worth the buy, got it when it came out and it is so much fun.

[krisfx]

I can't deal with how messy this game is online, people brake test you to get you penalties then cut corners and receive nothing. And yeah you're right on the handling front, when you see the cars of the same year taking corners flat and you have to brake it's like. What?

[ajdavison2]

That's why I came on here, looking for a fun but fair race lol.

[Giblet]

Forza was fun, but the AI is retarded, and the grip never feels 'correct'. Also, thumb sticks.

FYI iRacing is 3 for 1 right now. 12 bucks for three months. The Williams FW31 is simulated with data and real physics. F1 2011 is too easy. Nobody should be able to do a semi hot lap within a few 10ths of the real guys so quickly like I could. Its just so unrealistic, but not everyone wants realism. People like us in an F1 car would just spin it and look generally stupid.

The challenge is greater, and the rewards come in a little slower but it is far more worth it when you start getting on the pace.

Also, there are dedicated stewards that review incidents, and give out punishment. I had someone try to run me off the road for what was viewed as my fault by him, but I actually did nothing wrong. I supplied evidence and the guy was reprimanded.

Just do it, if you have a wheel you will have zero regrets. If you only have an xbox controller, don't bother

exactly!
Rfactor is much much better

[krisfx]

If we could get a half decent field of players on though it'd be good.

Sometimes I make mistakes which are a bit boredline but nothing compared to piling into the first corner full speed without a hint of braking!

An F1Technical F1 2011 Online Championship, sounds like a good idea to me...

[ajdavison2]

Good plan!
