esports drivers say the updated handling is a step back
i totally agree. front end is still too sharp and unrealistically too fast.
Forum Discussion
The driving experience does still need further improvement but you have to remember that the esports and youtubers are min-maxing everything, using extreme setups and driving in an inherently unrealistic way to get the best laptime possible. I heard a few say the cars are 3 seconds faster than they should be, but they say that using setups they would never use in real life, on time trial which has no fuel or weight transfer, tyre overheating or tyre wear and perfect track conditions. So i'd take everything they say with a pinch of salt personally.
Plus lets face it, most of us are not at that level!
Finally someone who looks at the whole thing in a differentiated way. For one thing, anyone who says the handling was good when the game was released has never driven a race car, as far as I can see. The handling was terrible and the setup couldn't fix it.
Since the update the handling model has become much better. Not perfect but at least a big step forward.I think a lot of people who complain about the handling are just copying Jarno Opmeer or Brandon Leigh's time trial setup and thinking it's total crap. These setups are extreme right up to the top end and absolutely not suitable for casual racers.These setups are extreme right up to the top end and absolutely not suitable for casual racers. If you adapt the setup a little to your own driving style, it's really fun and, above all, oversteering in fast corners is a thing of the past. As an example, in Spain or Jeddah I drive more rear than front wing and it's really easy to control once you find the right balance, even without understeer.
The problem with release handling was that you couldn't be quick with a repaired setup that met your own requirements. With my adjusted setups, I'm finally able to get 6-7 tenths of the way to the WR, which I'm totally happy with.
I would advise some people here in the forum to take a closer look at the game and I'm sure that the complaints about it would be drastically reduced in the near future.
Nope i really worked much for Setups with many Variety and since the car just feels really understeery. I still reach my times but i dont get enough Feedback where the car is feeling not well.
I really hope they listen if we are loud enough its just not good enough how it is. F1 2020 and F1 2017 is good ngl but the other Games are all just not F1 23 was good but the Peak came naturally with this Game. Until the Update. I hope they just Set all back.
