I'll also hijack this thread to say mods, can we have a leaderboard redesign to put Co-op/single player runs of the same category under the same menu a la how the platforms are done in the sm64 leaderboard? Then we shouldn't need misc categories.

I'd get in touch with sellz90 as he seems to be the most active mod at the minute.Īlso, shameless plug, feel free to get in touch with me if you want any help with the route, although it'll likely be quite different in co-opĮdit: I've never played the game in co-op, so excuse me if I don't entirely understand the nuances of it

If it needs a new category, mods will need to add it to the board, and put rules in place around how completed everyone's save files can be for the run (to stop the person on a new save being boosted by people with 100% completion, or allow it), how timing works (If the timer is paused in the menus when swapping people in/out) and all the other details. I reckon it'd need a new category (something like: Bad Ending No DLC Extended Co-Op), as you'd be exceeding the number of players the game can handle naturally (I assume you'd be running it relay style or something similar). Looking forward to diving into China over the next few days.I'll throw my hat into the ring on this one. Finished 19th thanks to one retirement.Īnyway.having fun with it so far! I did win the "classic car" challenge. I never could get back up to the pack, and ended up getting lapped by the end. (The visibility factor is no joke in the rain.) I had to pit, and that put me 35 seconds behind 19th place. In the 2nd lap, I came up to fast on the car in front of me and broke my front wing. My finishing goal was 17th, and I was mainly just focused on finishing the race, hoping to get in front of a couple cars and maybe get lucky with some retirements.Started out fine in the first lap, moving up to 18th. Then on race day it was raining, which I hadn't practiced on. Anyway.qualified in last place about a half second behind 19th. Put in an okay lap my first time, then got into some traffic and bumped against Raikkonen. (Fun fact: During my first practice laps, I was inadvertently running on Max fuel and ran out of gas.) I felt like I was running okay in practice, and was putting in a pace around what my qualifying goal was (15th). (Like an above poster, I'm a father of 3.and my normal game time is from 6 to 7 a.m.

I did all the practice, have full qualifying and doing 25% race length. (I know this means the car isn't as good.but I figure the goals will be more attainable than if I picked Mercedes to start with). (Started at level 40 and got blown away.)Īnyway, started a career at level 25, running with the Haas team.
Thanks for the tips! I am pretty dreadful thus far, but having fun! Ran a few practice Grand Prix with some different cars, running the 2010 Red Bull, current Mercedes and the Ferrari.

That way once you get into career mode, then you can get a realistic representation of where you are as a driver (for instance, not blowing the field away season one in a Sauber). This should help you find out what AI level you need to be set at. Ideally, you want to barely take the poll (within a tenth). considering there seems to be a decent following for the next F1 game on the forums. If you blow the AI away, then raise the AI level. Formula One Esports Series World Championship Announced for F1 2017. If the AI blows you away, drop the AI level. I do a whole session because one-shot puts a lot of pressure on me and I tend to always make a mistake on my lap. You can pick one-shot, you can do a whole session. That way, you are going up against an entire field of the same car so that you can truly gauge how you as a driver (and not the car) stack up against the AI. In the race settings, for class, pick spec. Preferably one your good at it (because we all have our good tracks and our bad tracks, just like real F1 drivers). On the main menu, go into Grand Prix mode. Here's a good method to figure out what your AI level should be at to give you a competitive race.

Don't worry much about setups as you're learning how to drive and learning the circuits. I recommend that you use practice sessions to get accustomed to the car and each track. I also have a lot of games I like to play. Long enough to require pit stops and some strategy changes but not long enough to inhale big chunks of time. Other tips: I like career races of 25 percent length, no practice and short qualifying sessions. Gaming is supposed to be fun, not torture.ĭon't listen to the knobs who say, "You're soft if you use assists," or "You're treating a sim like an arcade game if you use assists."īS. Use all the assists you want as you learn how to drive and race and then wean yourself from some as you see fit.
