Do you have GP3?
What are you comparing it to?

So you prefer GP3, but don't have GP3?
Man, you haven't got a clue if you think OF1R, F1RS
and MGPRS2 are better (in any way) than F1-2000.

Of course, you'd know, having already bought GP3.

One for the Trashcan ...

Spent about 4 hours with the game now - just deleted it, the biggest
complaints are(they really break the game):
- incredibly low framerate even on high-end system (about 10fps on a
celeron450 w/ voodoo3 and 256 megs RAM)
- the track models are totally and utterly wrong - a disaster (i mean it,
just try Spa) (!) Buy Superbike 2000 if you want to know how the nurburgring
does really look.
- physics are sometimes nice, sometimes ridiculous
- AI is stupid as hell
- annoying speech
- the car models are wrong
- the engine sounds are weak and the same for all cars
the goods:
+ partially great sound effects (skidding etc.)
+ nice selection of many different camera views
+ a lot of setup options, though i'm sceptical if they are really useful
+ good damage model if compared to other sims (not nearly as good as GPL
though)
+ it's not as bad as Spirit of Speed 1937
I'm glad that I could test it before buying - It doesn't even play in the
same league as GP3 or GPL...if GP3 is a Ferrari then F12000 is a Prost.
Everyone who got caught by the hype, dl the warez or wait for the demo and
see for yourself.
and the bigest question is... what are your complaints which everyone who's
posted thaughts so far hasn't seen?

Difficult question, I would compare it with the Psygnosis games... but it
clearly has better physics. If I had to rate it compared to other modern F1
titles the order would be something like this:
1. GP2
2. F1RS
---
3. MGPRS2
5. OF1R
4. F1-2000
6. F1'99
want to know the reasons? look at my post below
Something wrong with your PC then, mine runs at at least 20fps I guess on a
400MHz, voodoo2, 64Mb system!
Can't comment on that, haven't seen the real thing!
Haven't done a race yet!
And the drivers are too small!!
So been playing Gp3 alot?

better Alex? The beta is DX only? Yes fps would be bad in DX.
