this is what EA dreams of when it says 'optimisation'

press play -> 5 seconds pass -> in a run

*chef's kiss*

it's ok I guess

people not rating thumbs up are pretty sus

play this if you hate your life

First and foremost - most of the negativity is people having issues with their various wheels and controllers not working, that is not an active reflection of the game and they should go to Codemasters' blog for a fix, instead of giving the game bad rep.

Secondly, there are lots of bugs, yes but the majority of the game-breaking ones are fixed and the game is actually a pleasure to play. I do however hope to see the ones that are in the game still ironed out and I do NOT forgive Codemasters for releasing a broken game.

Third, I would like to comment on the gameplay, it is vastly improved on the 2014 game and it feels like a true racing experience and I enjoy the game a lot whether it is online or offline, with or without bugs, as most of the bugs when I'm playing are just hilarious anyway.

Fourth, I'm with the whole community when they say they want their REd Flags and their Safety Car back in the game as they made the experience that more real when playing and they are essential in the game, especially where the AI are dumb in Monaco. I'd love to see a parade lap that's toggleable and I'd really enjoy a bump in the difficulty of the game when you're in the better cars on the grid, as it seems a little easy to convert poles into wins on high overtake capacity tracks when you're in cars such as Ferrari and Mercedes.

Overall, yes I recommend this game, however make sure that you have a compatable controller or wheel prior to buying it, I use a wireless Xbox 360 controller and some cheap reciever and they're okay. It's fun and if you don't mind waiting for some features or for bugs to be fixed then definitely pick this game up.
