F1-2k2 Pitlane AI Oh dear me!

US GP. Raining at the start. Schumacher pits on the first lap along with most of the rest of the field. He stops in his pit stall, an Arrows piles into the back of him and then one car after another hurtles into the mess in the pit lane. Only 11 cars left running after half a lap. 1) Why didn't they all start on rain tyres? 2) Why do they collide when they are in their pit stalls, supposedly under a speed limit? No way am I investing time in a product as shoddy as that. If weirdness like that is in there, what else will it do? [email hidden]

I've heard SO MANY bad things about the F12k2 floating around on the net ( the tracks are a disgrace, replays a mess, FPS up the creak etc) that I'm hoping beyond hope that this is some F12001.5, not the finished thing. I dont think it is - but I HOPE it is Doug

Btw, ALL reviews on F1 2002 on the net right now are from the warez-version, so im waiting for my purchased version until judgement, but it doesnt seem good. "Douglas Ellison" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:adicng$11cj9a$[email hidden]...

And how do you feel about that purchase? It just seems strange that you would say "it doesn't seem good", but you'd plunk down your money anyway *without* seeing it beforehand...
