F1 2000 is superb !!!!

48 posts by 28 people · 17 Mar 2000 - 22 Mar 2000

Early impressions of leaked F1 2000 and piracy argument

Andre Warringa praised the physics of F1 2000 after trying a pirated copy before release. Others reported poor Direct3D graphics, low framerates with AI cars, and crashes on impact. Cliff Roman argued that pirated copies were unreliable for testing and morally wrong, leading to a heated warez debate.

review/impressionscommunity/metaF1 2000

Automated summary.

A friend of mine downloaded it from the internet to test it. He is evil, I know. But, I played it, and DAMN WHAT A SIM !!!! I never expected it to be this good! I only played it for about ten minutes, but with all the help functions off, I couldn't drive one lap around Monza without completely crashing my car, reminding me of my first days with GPL :) Graphically superb and very smooth, sound is a little less impressive but I'm sure people will make beter engine sounds for it, and my first impression of the physics are simply amazing. Again, that's the first impression, I didn't have time to do all sorts of stunts to test the physics. The only thing that was a little dissappointing was the force feedback, I only could feel the curbes, but maybe that can be adjusted somewhere. As I said, I couldn't check out all the features in those ten minutes. Oh, and it does support more than one controller at the same time :) I can't wait until this game is in the stores! To hell with GP3, I want F1 2000 !!! Andre, EA Sports propaganda department, www.easports.com (nah, just kidding, it's really that good!)
> A friend of mine downloaded it from the internet to test it. Hehe, always "a friend"... :) That's good news! Still a bit sceptical myself, but a bit less now. Cheers, /Martin Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
interesting, could you be a bit more specific about the details ? w hat aspect of the physics do you like especially ? How smooth is the game running (sys.requirements) ? is there a good replay mode (GPL quality?) Do the setup options make sense ? Is the AI good ? True 3D track surface ? Are the times on the tracks realistic ? Is no-aids faster than Brake Help etc ? Is there a LAN multiplayer mode? can you watch other cars on the track during qualifying and practice ? what about the crash physics, are they realistic or some stupid cumulative damage system, and is the damage visible (unlike SCGT) ? thanks if you can answer some of these, among others, they make or break a sim for me cheers, Alex

hmmmm i looks like i might be wrong only a few files from the game are there:((
As I said, only played the game for about ten minutes, so some short answers.... It just felt good, with the car spinning and sliding all over the place. I watched a in-car footage of Senna driving on Monaco 2 days ago, and when I drive F1 2000 on Monaco, it just looked and felt the same! He has a PII 450 with Voodoo II SLI, but he couldn't get the game working with the voodoo card. So he played with his Viper 550 card, and even with that card the game run very smooth with all options on the highest level! This was in training mode with no AI cars. I saw that there was a replay option, but didn't test it. But there are very many cam views while driving, so I guess that the replays will be excellent. Didn't test it. Only drove in training mode. The tracks are true 3d, and Monaco (only track I tested) was really perfect, with all the bumps and hills on the right spot. I guess so... Don't know... stupid, I should've looked for this. I'll call him tonight and ask him. Don't know The crash physics appear to be excellent!! I made some real bad crashes, and the damage model really looked superb. Driving without a front wing is REALLYdifficult on the highest level :) Also I made some big railing crashes at Monaco, and both my wheels were pointed inwards at different angles, looking very realistic. See above. Maybe there still are some flaws with the physics or the AI, it takes a little bit more than ten minutes to test this more precize. But a first impression is very important for me, I removed Sos 37, Ford Racing, Psychnosis F1 99 and Lemans 24 hours after a couple of minutes driving, but this game gave me a superb impression. I didn't expect this, after the letdowns of the above game I was very preserved, but they really did a good job on this one. Compared to this, GP2 finally looks like an old game :) Andre

D3d looks poor, sounds arent timed with the action, such as shifting. But overall seems like a decent game.

Downloaded it too, looks good, but very low fps on my 5 cars enabled) with other cars. When testing track fps is reasonable. Should be better with my config I would think though.

yeah i only tested and fps was good, no slow downs etc. I'll try racing w/ some other cars but the poor d3d graphics makes me shy away from this sim/gamulation.

Hey, I'm interested into how complex the damage model is. After being disappointed by the cookie-cutter damage models in GP2 and F1RS, I am hoping for something a lot better when I finish this huge download of this game... So, could someone please do me a favor? I'd appreciate it if someone would go backwards and slam into the AI cars at high speed at Hockenheim or Monza and get a screenshot of the carnage. :) Dan Belcher Team Racing Unlimited http://simcrashes.cjb.net

I have a problem in that whenever I hit a wall or another car - where damage would come into play - F1 2000 crashes out to Win98 desktop. I'm running a PII 400 Voodoo3-2000 clocked and cooled at 170Mhz. I'm curious as to whether or not anyone else is experiencing this. A couple more comments: Even at 1024x768 the graphics look pretty mediocre IMO. I think that D3D on a 3DFX card just isn't up to what we used to see with Glide. At least not in this sim. Also the Force Feedback is almost completely absent. And the canned sound effect when you run over the curbs is very lame. I tried to start a race and got about 5 FPS until I bumped another car (damage) and crashed out again. When I get the chance I guess I'll turn off damage and see if my speculation is correct. As far as Internet play is concerned. If the FPS drop is anything like what I saw in the race with full field, I would venture to guess it will be a disaster... BTW - if these issues can be worked out - I'll probably buy this title. If not, I'll be removing it. --Devon

I dont care how great of a simulation it is, the crummy d3d makes this sim seem cheesy. Is it the fact that im using a V3 card?

I agree, but damn it I want to drive this thing now. That being said, after taking it for a spin I will be purchasing it next week. I'm very anti-piracy, but I just couldn't help myself. When does the Voodoo 5 ship??? -Andrew
Nick 17 Mar 2000#523369
According to the Myth.nfo file there are 3 releases of this game.The Class and evil-iso releases are both based on a Beta version,which could explain some of the problems people are having with low frame rates etc..The Myth release is supposed to be the final. The game bieing available in warez channels doesn't mean its close to shipping, IIRC Rainbow 6 was on the net a month or so before it shipped..

Complete nonsense, only files missing are mostly movies and music. The game itself is the final version. Andre
Cliff Roman 18 Mar 2000#523494
If they had to take out the movies and music, they had to patch files to do so. Final version or not

#I'd really love to try this game out. You read that article? Sure made the company famous... Regards, Shellfer.
Yes, but ofcourse that doesn't change the physics of the car, the sounds, the setups or anything else in the game now does it? So stating that you can't accurately "analyse" or "test" a pirated copy is nonsense. The only thing you can't "analyse" or "test" are the movies and music. But I couldn't care less actually, the movies and music of Lemans were superb... Andre

Test driving a car is not illegal is it? I am not going to keep going into this with you. Pirating software is illegal. If your morals allow you to do that, then it is up to you. I personally think it is wrong and will not "steal" software. Go do what you need to do Mrv <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
