F1 2012 – PC Patch #11 News Today sees patch #11 available on Steam for PC versions of F1 2012. This is very likely to be the last patch for PC. This update addresses the following issues: • Made an improvement to the AI under braking that will stop them from crashing in to the back of the player so frequently. • Deactivated the run_on_cpu option which was added with the last patch. The feedback given did not indicate that this improved the framerate for anybody.Fixed two issues when using the Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP Wheel. o The default Logitech control profile is always selected after player attempts to customise the controls with this wheel. o Placeholder graphic shown for View Replay button icon when using a Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP Wheel as no button/key is assigned to View Replay. Work Arounds: • If you’re getting a stuttering during gameplay please tr…

F1 2012 – PC Patch #10 News Today sees patch #10 available on Steam for PC versions of F1 2012. This update addresses the following issues: • Made some more minor improvements to the online. We’re keen to get feedback on these changes via our forums. • Fixed an issue which would show a session to be “In The Lobby” when players were actually racing. • Fixed an issue where the Engineer would always be one place out when talking about your position relative to your objective. • Fixed some minor text issues with emails and press clipplings. • If you have seen lower GPU usage and framerate drop on the more recent patches you can try adding the line to hardware_settings_config.xml in Documents\My Games\FormulaOne2012\hardwaresettings. If this does cause unwanted side effects, please undo the change by deleting the line from the config. We are working on other issues you ha…

Today sees patch #7 available on Steam for PC versions of F1 2012. This update addresses the following issues: • Added two new options for PC users to improve voice communications. 1.

This update addresses a number of issues, including: • Fixed an issue with frame rates that was introduced in patch #2 • Fixed an issue where using a flashback could result in an engine blowout effect.

- Wot I Think: F1 2012 - 25 September 2012
We tasked Craig Lager with earn pole position on the F1 2012 reviews circuit. After a few laps he’s identified the worse bumps in the road, and is keen to tell you wot he thinks. Codemasters have straddled the line of “absolutely not a sim but by no means an arcade game either” pretty well over the last couple of years with the F1 license. They’ve never got it perfect though, and the problem of how best to balance approachability while still providing a challenge for dedicated race fans is a difficult one. They want people to be able to get into F1 quickly and easily. For fans of the sport to become fans of the game they need to get used to coaxing the super machines around a track, yet people already versed in racing cars need proper complexity and challenge to keep them interested. The end goal, I think, is to be able to turn the former set of people into the latter, all in one…
- F1 2012: The Kotaku Review - 19 September 2012
This past week, I haven't felt as helpless or as vexed behind the wheel since I was 15 years old and trying to divine the magical balance between clutch and gas pedal that actually sent my mother's BMW 325e forward along our farm's gravel road. Each time the vehicle shuddered and stalled out, I was left to contemplate my own futility, understanding there is no way a driving machine like this would be made, marketed and sold if it truly was inoperable. I had to be the problem. F1 2012 raised the same feelings in me. It is the most demanding racer I've ever played, and yet I'll surprise myself and also call it one of the most accessible motorsports simulations available. Make no mistake, to get a fulfilling experience from F1 2012 you must honestly judge your familiarity with simulation racing, and with Formula 1, before embarking upon this game, the third F1-branded offering from Codemas…
