F1 2010 Impressions (PS3, 360, PC)

[slimm31]

Im playing on the 360 and unless it has something to do with the length of the races, i havent seen most of the bugs mentioned. Are they mostly for PC or am i not racing long enough. I race on 30-50% in career. I have seen plenty of AI crashes, i have seen sector times during races, and i have not had the pit stop bug happen to me ....yet lol. Just wondering if maybe they rushed one version and not the other??

You say there's no strategy in F1, but there's no strategy in NCAA either because the AI play calling is so terrible. You're also very restricted in what you can do strategy wise anyway. No shells, no shading inside/outside, no matchup assignments, can't bluff formations, etc. But, hey people still enjoy that appearantly, so the same can be said for F1 2010, it's all a matter of perspective.

Point taken but NCAA has been patched several times and the slider adjustments help it out a lot. There are issues on defense especially with zone coverage, but it's hard compare some of those issues with the issues in F1 2010.

*AI cars not pitting. I mean come on seriously.

*AI cars not fully affected by fuel sim in less than 100% races distances.
(ex: only 50% fuel at 50% race distance while the user is scaled at 100%)

*Incorrect sector times. (In F1 time is everything. In any form of motor sport tbh)

* AI rubber banding. (I've seen it)


Just the AI cars not pitting is comparable to the fatigue glitch in NCAA 10 last year. That was a game killer for me so I guess your right about a matter of perspective. Maybe I'm more anal about F1 and you would be more so about football who knows.

And it's not a coincidence that most of the ppl who are really loving this game are playing a lot online. More power to them and I'm happy that they are enjoying the title. I just refuse to bust my tail for whatever race distance I choose to race and have the car I've been fighting with the whole time decide not to pit for new tires without paying a penalty. That's not F1. I'm optimistic about the patch but I feel I have the right to voice my disappointment.

Absolutely you do, thats what these forums are for bro. You shouldn't feel the need to apologize about being upset towards the game. It's not like your being belligerent or rude towards other people....you just have real issues with the game.

No worries!

Thank you for saying that blue. Some tend to forget that with an impression forum there will be positive and negative impressions. No one is trying to make others not enjoy a game by giving a negative opinion (I see that alot in the Show forums) of a game, they are stating how they feel about it that is all.

That looks so much better in my opinion. I got jumped on on another forum prior to release for saying I didn't like how the game looked. Guess I'm not the only one who felt that way with all the visual mods.

Thanks for the link. I'm currently waiting on the patch, but it's nice to know that something like this will be avaliable for when that happens.

PC Version:

Bob and I jumped in last night to try an online race and he was getting horrible lag. We tried about 4 different times to race but decided to quit out and jumped on rFactor F1 to get our fix!

Seems that online is a bit spotty. We've had nights where everything is fine and nights such as last night, where folks simply drop out because of the unbearable lag.

What's weird is that I've even seen lag when racing offline against ghosts in Time Trial mode. It's not a big deal to have lag against ghosts since collisions are off but it seems weird to have lag when racing against a ghost.
