I still like the idea of seeing Monaco. It will prove the hardest test for the graphics engine if the demo allows a large field to race. Otherwise if the clip the field down for the demo I would say Indy will gain the biggest head turn from the American audience...which is the target - yes?

What better track to catch up with the American audience than an American track? Unless EA wants to keep that track for the people who will buy the title.

I'd say Melbourne (first race of the season... first game of the 2000 season) or Indy cause that'd really catch eyes driving the 2000 track (modeled by orignal game designers) for the first time. But an easy one would be monza (but it is changeing this season)... i dunno. Either way I want a demo :) ymenard wrote:

And while were off topic with which track... just thaught I'd request the Macau Circuit... :) That one's pretty ***in. Just watched the 99' f3 race there today on Speedvision. Forgot to add it last comment.. but oh well.

Aslong as the model wasn't as bad as they did for SCGT. But also it is the wrong series.

Id like to see that Macau track too. Also the new Korean F3 street track. I saw it on Motorsport Mundial on SPV (great show btw if you never saw it) and man oh man...talk about shoot the gap street racing!! This one segment of track goes from about 5 cars wide down to about 2 VERY abrubtly. Its interresting to say the least... Chris
DjFIL 13 Mar 2000#522785
Yeah... now that I think of it... a f3 sim would be pretty ***in with all those unique tracks they have. And that area it squeezes from 3 lanes to like 1.25 lanes for a chicane combo. Man just awesome.

I think the F1 2000 demo should contain two tracks (much like the MGPRS2 demo did) and have Indianapolis and Hockenheim. Indy, for those of us who have sim experience, and Hock for those who know how to punch the gas and go. :) Dan Belcher Team Racing Unlimited http://simcrashes.cjb.net
DjFIL 13 Mar 2000#522787
Actualy, I'd have to agree wiht you dan. I'd like to see Indy... it'd give that nice "hey this game is for the 2000 season" touch. And Hockenheim is a good simple course.

I want to try out things when playing a demo and Monza is a track each driving simulations fan knows blindfolded. Jochen
The target is the European based F1 fans. Its being published by EA Europe. ISI based in MI is doing the project for them. It will also be released in the North America also. I believe it will also be released in Brazil, Australia, Japan just to name a few outside of Europe and North America. Art > I still like the idea of seeing Monaco.
