curious if anyone is not racing with a wheel.... I was pissed to find out my logitech wheel was not ps4 compatible.... still haven't bought a new one yet

PS4 here, controller.

I have played racing games for decades, never owned a wheel. If I'm going to do all that, I might as well hop in my car and go speeding.

I got the PC version so I could use my G27 with no worries. There is nothing in comparison when you feel the force feedback with a rival car next to you. It raises my heart rate ten fold lol.

I never got a racing wheel because it seems like a lot of effort to use one. With my fight stick, I just sit it on my lap and play. With a wheel you need to buy or setup a station so you can actually use the thing. I'm not that hardcore of a racer.

Did I mention how addicting this game is? It is already my all-time favorite racing sim. Too bad I have to go to work.

Right?? I think it's actually getting a little more time than Madden in my rotation.

And while the rivalries are great, and racing the pack is amazing....my thing is to try to 'beat' the track. Some I do very well on; Bahrain and Shanghai I'm dominant, and solid on Russia and Canada.

But others beat me like a dirty rug; Monaco I hate you, but I WILL solve you! Catalunya gives me fits as well.

I've had the game since launch on pc, it really is the best f1 game ever made. It's not without faults but man overall is it an extremely solid racing game! My one complaint is the difficulty settings, there are a lot of them (which is good) but the time delta between them is far too great. Too many people are somewhere in between difficulties, there's almost a 2 second gap between each one, that is just way too much. Some kind of difficulty slider would take care of this problem, but I doubt that will be patched in to this year's game so the best I can do is hope for next year (if there IS a next year, I think Codemasters contract was only thru 2016).

Glad to see so many of you enjoying the game, seems like 2016 has pulled in some new fans which is a great thing!

This where tinkering with different car setups fixes that. I believe that is what they wanted to add another level of difficulty.
