WTH does THAT mean ? I'm American, and want 100% "Pure" F1.
that's 1 website I won't visit, that's offensive.

He does not mean to be offensive. It's just that D!rt and GRID have an orange look, and allthough you can drive in a BMW in Europe, you feel like driving in American way.

He means that the game must not look 'orangy' (no word, I know :P) because both in D!rt as in GRID it looks like your driving in America.. Maybe hard to understand for people living there, but I know European people will understand me.

No offensive, by no means mate

yeah its that silly sunset effect they both have.

I want to be able to pick a host...green bars stuff like that...NO VOTING!!!

The host picks the race...you can see what race the host has BEFORE you join and what type off race IE 10 laps or full race. Stuff like that.

well, no F1 track tarmac is "orange" so the only American thing in F1 2009 might be the USGP.

[Trebor901]

i seriously doubt that will be back on the calender for 2009, maybe 2010 but not 2009

[Elessar Telrunya]

In terms of online, if a driver goes backwards for X amount of seconds, boot him/her. Simple as that. With a game as series as F1, the devs should know how important it is that people don't ruin the racing for others. I still think there should be voting in the lobby after each race, but once you are in the race, you can't vote.

PINGS are a must! We need to know if someone is lagging the room, etc. since we'll be traveling at speeds greater than 200 mph and a 'slight' bump could result in half the field being taken out.

This is not the right topic for that.. Please go to the other thread for ideas and suggestions

I was commenting on the 10 'rules' from the article. It is completely appropriate to be discussed in this topic.
