F12000 on tv

I saw a testdrive of Tom Coronel whit the F!2000 sim , it looks very good in order of graphics, but the sound are very poor . The handling of the car looks like the same as SPORTS CAR GT to me. The car was breaking very late before the corners, so late it did not look good. These are my first impressions of what i saw this morning. Carlo

To me even the graphics didn't look very good, did they even take a look at the tracks? There was a bit too much ambient effect in the engine sound but I didn't think it sounded very bad. The physics looked bad in the hands of TC, but it's too soon to judge because he was driving plain stupid (trying to brake at 50 metres or later at every corner). I'm 100% sure that it's not a GP3 beater after seeing it, I'll buy it but just to do some modern F1 driving. You can win a copy of the game by answering a question, they showed a picture and you have to say what it is. It was a alu wheel trim disc(don't know the term, but you probably know what I mean). It's possible to respond through mail, but I'm not sure what the email address is. And I don't think they'll accept other than dutch responses. But you can always give it a try. Try to search www.rtl5.nl for the address or maybe somebody else in this ng knows it. "Carlo" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Saw it again just, now have to say I still hate the graphics and now the sound as well. TC managed to brake at the 50 m sign and still made the first corner quite good. We don't know whether it was in arcade mode or something like that (does it exist), let's just hope so.

And how about that annoying helicoptersound halfway through the track?? Sounded like a freakin' flightsim... -- XLjunkie-- "The Utility Pit" -- http://utility-pit.homepage.com --

I didn't like the sound much, but that could be because it was via TV. The track was a bit bright to my liking, but was otherwise ok. The car in use was an Arrows A21, already in the new colors. The cockpit perspective seemed a bit off, but it could be that they did setup the monitor wrong. The physics seemed a bit weak , but I guess TC was using some steering help. This is very hard to judge from TV anyway, you've to drive yourself to be sure...I say this because TC leaved the pits with smoke coming from the rear tires, steering to the left, then to the right to enter the track. This without countersteering... Anyway, I'll buy the game, since it will be the best modern F1 simulator available for at least three months. And it will be the only sim with the 2000 season. And I'm sure when setup right, it will perform better then it did in the RTL5 TV show....

My guess is, just like they were doing for the GP3 testing area, is the driver aids are on. If possiable, I heard it was to be replayed. If you can get it from tv to mpg please do so. DjFIL Carlo wrote:

I'm sure the ABS brake help was on. Because with it off they lockup easily if your not careful. You can not brake after 150m or you'll pretty much wont make the turn unless your initals are M.S. :) Art Stealth Racing http://www.gamingsys.com/stealthracing.html Harjan Brand <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:QvMy4.3274$[email hidden]... > Saw it again just, now have to say I still hate the graphics and now the > sound as well.

I saw the F1-2000 also in Melbourne. It kicked the crap out of the Mclarens for a 1, 2 finish!!! Carlo wrote:
