I play GP2 under win95, on a dx266 with 16 Megs. Ok, it's vga, ok some of the
graphics are turned off, but I bought the game to race cars, not wave at the
crowd. Personally I'm more interested in what's going on on the track, and things
that affect my car than whether you can see the the third person fromt he left 4
rows back is wearing a white t-shirt or not.
Don't get me wrong, I've played it on a Pentium Pro 150, and in SVGA it is
beautiful, a work of art, but the gameplay was the same - absolutely excellent. As
for the difficulty (as someone commented above) - yes it is v.hard, but, bear in
mind everybody that we'd been playing f1gp1 for over 2 years....we were bound to
get good. If there was no challenge I'd be disappointed.
My congratulations to all concerned for a game that PLAYS well at all levels of PC
available.
So. I guess there's a possibility that Mr.Crammond (bow down before him) may be
reading this note. If so, some questions that I guess we would all like answered:
1) Weather: When?
2) Cars: Do different cars (ferrari, williams, etc.) have different performance
characteristics in the game, or are they all identical bar colour.If so, is there
any indication as to what the performance characteristics might be?
3) (This is the question that we're all asking at work...) Is there going to be,
and if so, any idea when, a network play so we can have more than two at a time?
I love this game.
Mike
