Just received an email confirming that I can join the multiplayer preview this weekend. Exciting!
-
I saw this last night (released early in Singapore) and really enjoyed it. Had avoided this thread and pretty much everything I could (bar an early trailer) and as a result the most disappointing thing for me was that this was only ‘part 1’. I certainly came out eager for more so really hope this does well. The 2.5 hours or so run time flew by too, which is always a good sign, especially as it was a late-ish showing.
-
Me too, so surprised to see myself up there in second place! May have to continue leaving it be as I’m sure if I was actively changing it I’d be doing much worse!
-
I just don’t think Max would have let Lewis pass without driving into him, whether it was there or a later attempt. It’s just the way he approaches races.
-
Great to see McLaren 1-2. Such an awesome driver pairing.

Fucks sake

On the evidence so far, I don’t think these Sprint races work for F1 - at least with the cars this year, the 2022 cars might be different. Without pit strategy it’s largely just a procession it seems. Also doesn’t bode well for tomorrow In terms of overtaking.
-
I was sure I’d seen somewhere that it was, but now I can’t find anything suggesting that’s the case. I might actually have to pay for a game on release for a change!

My recommendation would be not to even think about it. Sometimes (most times in my experience) games will launch much quicker as they’re utilising Quick Resume. When it happens it’s amazing. When it doesn’t loading is so quick anyway it’s not too much of a pain (but I’m so used to Quick Resume working now I do roll my eyes if I have to wait a few extra seconds!)

Introducing Hit Points, a newsletter about the game industry, by me

I’ve sorted this and now subscribed. Think the confusion was around whether I had an account or not, and that it seems like you can have one without setting a password. Anyway, all fine now! -
I think Hamilton’s time was equal to Max’s time in his first run, which is pretty impressive. Was not expecting Lewis to be anywhere near that close!

Yeah, my experience was similar to @spanx If there’s any way to accept Patreon as an alternative that would be a good thing to offer - but perhaps not helpful/possible if you’re planning to do supporter exclusive content via Substack. -

I’m really enjoying this - I think the shift away from every day makes me more excited to read it when I see it appears, and it feels like it’s getting into its stride more in terms of balance of content and tone. Definitely become one of the few email newsletters I like to read as soon as I see it (the other is the Politico London Playbook). I do mean to subscribe but the couple of times I’ve tried to do so via Substack I’ve had issues. I don’t know if I have an account or not and just need some time to sort it out. -
I finished this this evening with the 100% achievement, something I never usually do. What a game! Absolutely loved it, and will really miss playing this of an evening. Have found myself humming the music to myself during the days whilst I’m not playing and sad that it’s over. It’s crazy that this was made by just a couple of guys. Have they done anything prior to this?

This was exactly my reaction. I’m excited, but already worried about how scary this is going to be just from that gif!
