So basically dropped the 70s cars and added the MS cars. Nothing else new. Thats fine, im all here for the Benettons.

100% won't happen.

Do you know someone who works at codemasters? What is your source for this information?

Never has done, never will do. The F1 2020 DLC will take the form of the F2 2020 championship and any livery updates from F1 up to around halfway through the season.

Okay then. Thank you.

I don't have a lot of history with this game or how they do things but I've seen a few trailers and some reviews and I think I want to get it

 

[Scaff]

First 40 minutes or so has been fun, the physics have been tweaked enough in a positive direction and while I've only had a mess around in Time Trial with the Merc at Silverstone and the Jordan at the Red Bull Ring I' looking forward to setting up My Team and working through that. Between this and ACC I'm going to be busy for a while.

Scaff, what is the Jordan?

 

[MagpieRacer]

Doesn't look like the 1.03 patch is live yet for UK Xbox.

 

[Northstar]

I haven't done much more than just mess around in a few test sessions, but so far I really like this game. I can see spending lots of time in both career modes and the classic cars are a blast, I like that there is a different hud depending on what classic car you are in as well.

Really my only complaint so far is that I will only have a few days of being towards the top of the leaderboards.

 

[omgitsbees]

Does anyone know if the Michael Schumacher early access edition is live and ready to play yet on Xbox in America?

 

[Scaff]

Scaff, what is the Jordan?

It the Jordan 191 from 1991, part of the Schumacher early access extra's.

Ita fun little beast wants to send you sideways in the first three gears unless you are straight.

Hoe do the graphics hold up this year? A lot of scream tearing on regular PS4?

Can't speak for the regular PS4, but I do have a video rendering of it on a Pro that will be up in around an hour.

I am glad thy ditched the 70's cars. They were not convincing to drive in the games. The modern era cars do drive lovely though.

Will it be possible to buy the 4 Schumacher cars separately?

It will be yes. From what I saw on the podium pass last night (when it worked) they can be purchased. I can't remember the pricing on them, around €10 for all 4 I think.

 

[Shinu]

To my understanding you have to drive as one of the drivers in "my team" mode ?

I wanned to play it in a managment/relaxed style and that is not an option?

Correct, you drive and choose a team mate.

 

[Silver_Wolf]

Would have been nice if we did get the option to have effectively a "B-Spec" mode where you could let the My Team part run whilst you were doing other things but my question I guess I have about that is can you have multiple My Teams or can it be only one team save running at any time as I seem to remember you can do multiple career saves in 2019?

Correct, you drive and choose a team mate.

There is an option to "simulate" a session - so you don't drive, the game just simulates what would happen. You won't be able to sit on the pit wall and manage the race though.

 

[AlexWilmot]

Can you do a season in F2 the go into the next season in F1 under your own team?

 

[Scaff]

Can you do a season in F2 the go into the next season in F1 under your own team?

Nope, F2 isn't incorporated into My Team, only into the standalone career mode.

This is a run-through of My Team and the options it has

 

[MagpieRacer]

Can you do a season in F2 the go into the next season in F1 under your own team?

Sadly not. You could however start a driver career and do a full season of F2 as your own driver and then simply switch to MyTeam. That way at least you can pilot your own driver in F2 before switching modes.

Sounds like a plan! never played an F1 game before so thinking F2 to learn the tracks and game feel
