I own every codys F1 game, and out of them all F1 2012 was my favourite. I always play no assists, and 2012 was the best experience for me, I put countless hours in, and there was something extremely satisfying about beating the AI around their "home" circuits because they definitely gave a buff when a driver was on their "home track". The time trials were great fun, the challenges were actually challenging and Legend AI were tough but not unbeatable. Thoroughly enjoy the game and still have my 360 so I can play this, OG Halo 1&2, AvP Exctinction, Doom 3 & a couple others :D

2012 was a reflection of what F1 could be in an ideal world, an ultra close, ultra competitive field where seemingly anyone and everyone could get on pole position and challenging for race wins (as shown by seven winners of the first seven races). However, if we dig below the surface, the picture is not as rosy. The only reason why so many drivers won races in the early part of the season was because of the tyres, it was a case of who got the tyres working properly at any one time. Don't get me wrong, 2012 was one of the best seasons in F1 history in my opinion, but once changes all the teams began to understand the tyres more, it reverted to either Ferrari, Red Bull or McLaren winning races (indeed the latter, despite falling short in both championships, finished 2012 with the fastest car). In terms of Valencia, I'm with you. Yes the swing bridge at the start of sector 2 was more of a showpiece rather than anything that would improve the show, the last sector was super! From turns 16 to 25, it featured each corner being faster than the previous one, threading through the incredibly fast but deceptively narrow section carrying as much speed as they can before heavy braking for the last corner. Such an underrated track, I miss it, it's so much better and has more character than Sochi for example

The best season not only because the competition but also because of the rollercoaster of emotions. I can now say I was privileged to have been able to see it.
@s10032324 жыл бұрын
I play this game almost every day since 1 year ago, think well over 100 hours... Still improving, almost never gets boring ands still surprises with weather circumstances and what tyres to choose! Sadly the safety car only comes in about 1 every 100 races (of 25% or 50%). I'm thinking about doing something for a KZbin channel..I do it like this : only single non championship races. Start at Australia through all the races towards Brazil. After that I reverse and race al circuits, starting in Brazil ending in Australia. Before a race I flip a coin, up means a 25% race and down is 50% race. With 25% race however, i play 15 minutes qualy session, so around 4 flying laps. With 50% race I go for one lap qualy, so one shot. Makes for different types of races. Than for determining the car : I have the games speed of the cars ordered. Fastest, nr 1 team, is red bull. 2 is McLaren, 3 Ferrari, 4 Mercedes etc. If I win a race, that means team nr1 next race. Also for p2. P3 or 4 is team nr 2 for next race. And last gives me the non kers HRT car. For example I once raced the red bull on monza, but difficult weather got me on the wrong tyres multiple times, so too many pitstops and finished last. That gave me the HRT for next race.... Record is winning 16 from 20 races, won all races until suzuka, one lap qualy and braking too late at Casio triangle and starting 18th...although I have one from last place multiple times. Highest difficulty, no driving aids and no setup changes on the car, i just drive with it.. Personal best at Valencia : 1:38.252 in qualy and 1:41.143 during race (not sure if I had drs and/or most aggressive engine mode on during that lap).

Still would be awesome to see you race again at some point, whether you'd be competitive or not. Also, did you ever consider casting GT Sport? It's got some pretty interesting but accessible competitive races, and I can't help but think that it would fit your commentary and driving style really well.
