Ok, just left f1 2011 a month or so ago. Got to a pretty decent standard.
On f1 2012, starting all over again. All my settings feel fine but the braking for me seems noticeably ineffective compared to rfactor, rfactor 2 and a million miles weaker than f1 2011. Don't get me wrong, braking distances in f1 2011 seemed ridiculously short and i hoped to brake to apex like hamilton and co.
However, trail braking is hard as you just get understeer with more than a tiny bit of braking.
In a straight line, if i slam on the brakes, they take about 2 seconds to slow and lock and distances are still long.
i've tried rear bias and front bias but still, no "bite" when braking in a straight line and difficult trail braking.
I then adjusted brake saturation to 10%. this results in lock earlier but still doesn't feel right.
I notice that pad users seem quite happy with this game. Are you a pad user? Do you use progressive pressure on the pad or just slam the button? are you a wheel user? do you brake to full and ease off before lock or just press brake part down and what brake saturation do you use?
Lots of questions but if you can answer any, i think it may help my enjoyment as the rest of the game feels quite good and after all, its' F1
