What I noticed positive:
- Better handling of vehicles
- AI no longer rams unnecessary and sometimes tried to overtake
- Graphic: The reflections on the cars have simply become great and very realistic
- No account required for Xbox Live, but on Steam (for me personally, the better choice)
- Young Drivers Test, here you can start with something to prove and may be the same with better teams
- We may finally no longer drive over the white line of the pit lane exit
- Penalties are fair
Neutral points:
- Still no warm-up lap (would be nice, but is not as long as the balance is good)
- The traction control intervenes a little too much, but it is a set to Off
Negative points:
- So many textures as inscriptions on the cars could gestallten even sharper
- The tires of cars seen on the grid still somewhat angular
- In the pit lane one must still be satisfied with the autopilot
- The pure pushing the car still looks totally stupid (the cars are turned almost immediately to 90 ° C and pushed into the garage)
Despite the many negative points that are actually to get over, I find F1 2012. a very successful game. Anyone who has played F1 2011 and was content must not buy F1 2012 necessarily. Who wants to have a driver update and Team Update and will be pleased with a few new features and a new route (Austin / Texas) should buy F1 2012.
I'm very satisfied!
