Community Manager@TomasSlb24Agreed, EA should just leave Codemasters to it and not get involved. They simply don't have a clue when it comes to F1 games.
Everything they have tried to create and implement has been a complete disaster. F1 fans want as much realism from a game as possible and not gimmicks.
Just look at the huge downward spiral since they took over.
I would like to take up the cudgels for CM:
When the release came, with 1.2, I was blown away, visually nothing had changed, the first feeling for the car, well, it was snappy, very direct and it was something completely different. Mind you, I drive on the PC with a Fanatec. But it was really cool with it, somehow different.
Then came 1.3, I was sick of it, I wanted to have the 1.2 again, only not quite so twitchy on the rear axle.
Then came 1.6 and so on, it slowly became like f1 23 or worse.
1.2 wasn't perfect, but it was fun, the car was suddenly direct at last, it went well around tight bends and didn't make any mistakes on the rear axle, it was a completely new feeling and it was really fun. Slowly a trace of it is coming back, but it's not the same feeling anymore.
I would like to thank all console and GamePad gamers for this. At last there was an F1 title on the market that was cool purely in terms of driving. Now there's hardly anything left except a snorey title that nobody is happy with anymore. Thank you EA/CM for having unskillfully missed all the flies you were aiming for. You really had a good slap in the face. Send one get one, once with professionals
