Greetings fellow racing fans.
I am not new to racing games. I have mostly all ColinMcrae rally games in my collection. But I wanted to step it up a notch in the speed departement, and bought F1 2011. And compared to my favorite rally games, this game knocks the ball right out of the park. It`s so fast, and hard, and I am just back to beeing a super noob. I thought my rally experience would help me out somewhat, but man was I wrong.
The only assist I use is driving lane in the corners, so I can easyer learn the breaking spots and the best lane through the corners. I was way optimistic and pumped AI to pro when I started, thinking I`m going to show them good. Short story, they show me how the race start looks from pos 24. So now the AI is at beginner, but still I can only qualify in the mid field.
The team I race for is Hispania. The reason for this is that they have low hopes for me (But they are still not very happy with me, and I fear I soon will get fired, if that is possible in this game )
I`m using my trusted old G25 racing wheel, and I allso tweeked my wheel settings from one forum post here, witch helped quite a bit. I download the force fix, and another camera mod, to fix the bad FOV. I`m allso using car setups from this forum, and that is very helpful. But still I am not in the run for eaven a top 10 starting position.
I watch some youtube videos from this dude. http://www.youtube.com/user/Cadmuss And he is just up there every race, every round, and beeing very competative all the time. With legend AI and no assists. Lots of respect And my driving style and driving lane is not to far from his, I offcourse makes some bad mistakes now and again and loose some time, but still I should be higher up I think I dont get it.
So now I`m pretty desperate here. Nothing I do seems to help at all. And I need some pointers on what to do next, badly. I love the game, it`s fun and adictive as hell, but I`m getting a bit frustrated at this point. Cause I want to fight for atleast podiums
So how do you guys do it? Why aingt my car any faster? Why do i suck this bad?
