I know there have been many criticisms of this game so far in this NG. But
is it worth playing ? Anyone actually like the game ?
Loved GP2, can't wait for GP3, so will this keep me going until then ?

At first blush I thought all the gripes were right and was ready to return
it.
But I tweaked and played, rinse lather repeat - and now have a pretty good
time of it.
AS far as the speed, I used a grpihcs file found here or at SIMRACINGNEWS in
the forums and now do about 19 - 20 at the start and can get as high as 30
if I drop back real far or pull ahead real far, but otherwise I stay around
20 or so maybe 15 if there a lot of activity.
the racing feels OK... I say OK becuase I have become acustomed to FF and
found that for racing it really adds to the game if dnoe well, nad here its
not worht having, the wrost part is not being able to "feel" when you are
getting loose and spinning. I think FF could have added tons here.
It is a fun game solo, but the racing with the AI cranked is a rush and the
game overall feels good. THere is a tweaking curve to be scaled and I think
that a lot of folks have their favorite sims and can jump in and play them
without any hassles, here you are going to get annoyed at first, then if you
work at it there seems to be a decent sim in there.
good luck, buy from EB, gie it a few days and you may find a gem.
ed
My problem is I dont know if I feel like spending my *** time tweaking
the sim to get it where I want it... I will probably keep it becuase at $29
its a good buy.
I really don't like it!

If you have a copy of F1RS GIVE IT A TRY you will have a better time with
it then with F12K in my opinion ; ).

I was never able to enjoy F1RS at all. The car _really_
felt disconnected from the pavement.
For me, F1 2000 'feels' better in terms of handling
than everything else but GPL.

Is this what you are referring to or is there something else.
The FF is pretty poor also... unless someone has managed to find a way to
tweak this side of things.
