Hi Ben! I just purchased a thrustmaster tx wheel and I'm getting to grips with it. I was just wondering what your wheel settings are as I've got absolutely no clue which settings are good for a beginner wheel user. Thanks!

+Tobias Wunder but it's a 10 year career mode imagine if toro roso weren't aloud to upgrade and maybe next year codies can implament engine manufacturers give you the upgrade themselves but IMO it makes a better game
I remember it was F1 2012. I had just started playing F1 games on PC. I played with a keyboard which was still manageable, till 2013 where the wheel spin was too much. I was already playing for some time before I found your channel, and when I started watching your vids, I immediately saw how much more you could actually turn your steering wheel and your wheels on console.
The reason you couldn't select to start on the soft compound is because that breeches the two compound rule, as the whole strategy would've been set to run on one compound. Changing the compound on the other stints should've allowed you to start on softs. Cheers!
It just has to be there dude, its because it is 2 entirely different scenarios. Essentialy its like an ultra quick loading screen. The code attributes will mean that it just has to be 2 seperate scenarios for now. It may be gone for the game but i highly doubt it. It does sort of remove the tension but at least we got the formation lap
Daniele Brambilla They didnt put it in on purpose lol. The formation lap may have been a feature they decided to add after a lot of development and coding had already been done on the main race. It probably just wasnt feasable to seemlessly connect the 2
Considering the tires, I think you only had 2 sets of soft tires left. So when altering the first strategy, you should've been able to switch a soft tire to a supersoft or medium tire, then start on the soft tire and work from there.
If you upgrade your car, you'll hit the targets. Now your a week behind. That downforce would have worked wonders for tyre management if you had put it on before the last race.
Do you have the ear of the developers? The gripes you have, do you expect them to be fixed at launch? I would expect the game at the mo is printed for physical media so it would be a patch on release day. I was thinking of preordering but not sure I want to risk the £40 price tag for a game that is not quite finished. Also your move from mid - end pack to get first seems to negate the qualification and practice process. If it made a difference like you talk about, that would be much more impressive. Also I would like to know a few things. Have you tried the PS4 build? I use the standard gaming controller, so would like to know how much that effects the game play.
I think the tyre strategy problem is because you were using your allocated tyres on the other two stops or it wouldn't allow you to have all three of the same tyres so maybe if you changed one of the stops after the start that may have changed that
is it just me or do the cars look very slow? like you don't have the feeling you're driving 200mph.. everything around is moving very slow, maybe they should work on this...
I remember when the F1 2012 or 2013 demo came out on console, and it had huge amounts of understeer. Dropping down to 1st on one of the Lesmos was pretty ridiculous, but the game when fine on full release.
Best F1 2016 video yet, this vid really does a good job of showing the strategic side of a race and how it could or may unfold. Haven't purchased an F1 game since F1 2013. After watching this video I decided to pre-order this go around (typically never pre-order) but what I've seen has been very good.Thanks for this long race video. Would love to see another one like it at maybe Bahrain? Quick question... does this game have a 75% race length option? For me, this is the most optimal distance.
Great videos Benjamin, keep doing! Can't wait for the following Episodes. In my opinion you also should have a look at the Tyre wear upgrading the car. Also the downforce was a bit high wasn't it? would be nice if you'd show us a closer look at the setup options you got.
You know what would make me instantly want to buy this game? 2+ people online career mode. It's annoying having 3-4 friends and wanting to play the career with all of them when we're limited to one teammate.
Just wondering, all these problems you mention such as understeer in practice but fine in the race and tyre wear etc. Didn't these get fixed in the closed Beta?
That's a bit poo on CM's part.. Surely a Beta should cover everything to sort out any bugs. I hope this isn't the same as every other year and they release a broken game!!
Hey Ben great video! One request though can you leave up the tyre wear or temperature telemetry longer and more often? I love watching what the effects of the race have on the car in this year's version.
ben, you seem to be updating your car really fast. is there more than 5 updates for each catagory because at the rate your going itll only be about a season until your fully upgraded which would be a shame.
keep it going dont stop ben,this is great just make your career video a little bit spacey until the climax time 19th august,so dont hurry your career,but play safely
It's interesting to see you got a far better race pace than qualifying pace. Do you think this is more game-related or is it a matter of your race style?
In the tire selection, I guess you would have to have changed a later stint to medium first (rb / lb on top) and then you could have changed the starting tire to soft.
resource points should be way more difficult to get. you'll be able to upgrade the car to the front of the grid by the end of season 1. should be much harder than that, and if you crash often it should set back development focus to repair and produce current parts
It's interesting to see, that you have such many problems with handling, tyres etc. and xmattyg has none of these. I watch both careers and xmattyg was really good in the tyre test in practice for example...
Love the vids Ben and can't wait for your F1 2016 ones. But please, don't complain about the Ultimate AI difficulty. This is the first time we've ever had top quality AI who will battle and race hard and be very tough to beat. It will take getting used to and thats the challenge. Legend once again just doesn't seem tough 'enough' and thats why ill be racing on Ultimate
I don't think the poor grip is a glitch... You're doing everything at the very beginning of P1, when the track isn't rubbered in at all. It's realistic that your speed would be bad at this point. A real F1 team usually does tire testing in P2 and qualifying runs in P3, where there's a lot more grip. Does this work in the game?
Can the player car have failures. tyre gearbox or engine failure? also it would be cool if there was an option for variable pitstop times with chances to simulate team errors like at monaco or really fast pitstops.
It's kind of a double edged sword - on one side Ben is miles better in the races (but only the races) on the other he wouldn't even be close to competitive with the AI
Platfoot No maybe not. But a preview build means also that not everything is showed. Its not the full, complete game. Older build. For that reason you l have to be carefull having directly a negative opinion about maybe 1 or 2 videos you have seen about a game like this.

The podium was in the actual gameplay but I accidentally edited it out, sorry guys!
f1 2016 podiums are the same than last year unfortunatly so thats not a problem

No problem mate ;)
Kind of funny how Toro Rosso got a engine upgrade...even though they're running old Ferrari engines.
Yeah ! Funny too that Williams can upgrade their engine .. Very unrealistic :D
+Tobias Wunder Williams have 2016 engines
Samuel Pauwels Mayber you forgot that they have an Mercedes engine and only Mercedes can upgrade it ?! :D
+Tobias Wunder but it's a 10 year career mode imagine if toro roso weren't aloud to upgrade and maybe next year codies can implament engine manufacturers give you the upgrade themselves but IMO it makes a better game
Every Mercedes Team has to get an upgrade, then it wolud be no problem
Anotha one, anotha one, and anotha one xD
Oh man, you, aarav and matt are spoiling us with this gameplay!
The hype us truly real!
It makes us F1 2016 fans even more excited! 😃👍
+Aaron Arcon fuck off with your spam.
HOW you missed that 1.8 second pitstop!
I remember it was F1 2012. I had just started playing F1 games on PC. I played with a keyboard which was still manageable, till 2013 where the wheel spin was too much. I was already playing for some time before I found your channel, and when I started watching your vids, I immediately saw how much more you could actually turn your steering wheel and your wheels on console.
That pit-stop though! 1.8 seconds!!!
Thank god we actually get some properly fast stops going for F1 2016 :)
19:28 1.8 second stop o.0
Considering this is red bull......
7:12 The T1000 from Terminator 2 working as cameraman. Scary
Your second stop was a world record beater! 1.8 seconds
there needs to more failures than just the engine like brakes failure
Maybe it is? Be happy there is 1 failure :p
Yea like teh braking strenghth decreases with 40% as example
7:13 the camera man walks right through another person
XD
Game deserves a 0/10
why is the red bull so glossy? it shouldnt be codies..
Its not the final game
+Aaron Arcon Wtf?
OllieDeOzi I know and I really hope they can fix it but it looks awful atm
your channel is cringy and you comment is cringy Aaron
Stop plugging your shitty channel, we came here to see Ben's content, not yours...
Damn that 1.8 pit stop was fantastic
1.8 second pit stop... im impressed by the redbull guys
7:10 hot cameraman through cameraman action
Thanks Ben for providing this great F1 2016 preview content :)
Do you have good pc now
Good to see the AI on a variety of strategies!! Obviously this is an early build and does not contain the final AI :)
I love the fireworks coming to the end of the race, but when you finished it wasn't dark enough, like it only felt like it was 8pm or 20:00
well he didn't race the full distance, that's probably why wasn't so dark at the end of the race
+Lucas Miranda still too light
when they race in real life its supposed to be 100% dark, just like aarava`s video today
the sun is just setting at the real race half way through is dark
No it starts dark honest
Bahrain GP starting in full daylight? Well done, Codemasters...
There's something in the Bahrain air tonight... lmao
at 7:11 the cameraman outs himself as a ghost XD
The reason you couldn't select to start on the soft compound is because that breeches the two compound rule, as the whole strategy would've been set to run on one compound. Changing the compound on the other stints should've allowed you to start on softs. Cheers!
Loving this F1 2016 content Ben!
Hi, great vids as always bud! I'm hoping the textures on the cars get better though at 7:30mins
i find your videos very relaxing, you've done a great job with these videos well done
I hope they remove the fade to black right after setting up on the grid after formation lap.
it would be nice but i doubt it, maybe in next years or the one after. at least we got all what have so far though
Steve M But why even putting that in? It makes no sense.
It just has to be there dude, its because it is 2 entirely different scenarios. Essentialy its like an ultra quick loading screen. The code attributes will mean that it just has to be 2 seperate scenarios for now. It may be gone for the game but i highly doubt it.

Daniele Brambilla They didnt put it in on purpose lol. The formation lap may have been a feature they decided to add after a lot of development and coding had already been done on the main race. It probably just wasnt feasable to seemlessly connect the 2
it's only if you make a mistake during the formation lap
Very nice drive in this one, well done! Now that you are coming to grips with the game, it doesn't seem that difficult :)
Alien cameraman at 7:14. ITB shoudn't see it or he'll freak out :P
Considering the tires, I think you only had 2 sets of soft tires left. So when altering the first strategy, you should've been able to switch a soft tire to a supersoft or medium tire, then start on the soft tire and work from there.
I like extra detail they put on tyre wear, when it wears it looks exactly like real life
Did you realized you have left pit lane under red lights? 15:09 xDDD
It would be nice if F1 2016 had also cooldown lap after crossing the finish line so you could calmly deliver your car back to pits.
If you upgrade your car, you'll hit the targets. Now your a week behind. That downforce would have worked wonders for tyre management if you had put it on before the last race.
Kvyat has been way too good in all Tiametmarduk's and Aarava's videos :D He's always at least 10th but in reality always out of the race :D
Do you have the ear of the developers? The gripes you have, do you expect them to be fixed at launch? I would expect the game at the mo is printed for physical media so it would be a patch on release day. I was thinking of preordering but not sure I want to risk the £40 price tag for a game that is not quite finished.
Also your move from mid - end pack to get first seems to negate the qualification and practice process. If it made a difference like you talk about, that would be much more impressive.
Also I would like to know a few things. Have you tried the PS4 build?
I use the standard gaming controller, so would like to know how much that effects the game play.
I think the tyre strategy problem is because you were using your allocated tyres on the other two stops or it wouldn't allow you to have all three of the same tyres so maybe if you changed one of the stops after the start that may have changed that
quite interesting to see Vettel winning races in the game while in real life he's having a bad year
The sense of speed doesn't look to be as apparent in my eyes.
is it just me or do the cars look very slow? like you don't have the feeling you're driving 200mph.. everything around is moving very slow, maybe they should work on this...
I remember when the F1 2012 or 2013 demo came out on console, and it had huge amounts of understeer. Dropping down to 1st on one of the Lesmos was pretty ridiculous, but the game when fine on full release.
19:23 there is a 1.8 stop. Jeez
Well, Red Bull pit crew stepping up! 1.8 second pit stop! World record! ;D

Srry I meant this video plus the 100% Baku race video as well.
Great videos Benjamin, keep doing! Can't wait for the following Episodes. In my opinion you also should have a look at the Tyre wear upgrading the car. Also the downforce was a bit high wasn't it? would be nice if you'd show us a closer look at the setup options you got.
The clouds look like there is Oil burning all over the country
13:24 so disappointing that the AI wouldn't go down the inside to defend
This build is bugged, will be fixed for release mobile.twitter.com/TheLeeMather/status/757959439999795201
Jack F but that tweet refers to how cautious the AI is in the preview build, i heard nothing on how the AI behave offensively and defensively
+LoLzYeAh well if the AI are having troubles with marbles then they won't deviate from the racing line ie to defend..
I hate how the AI get a move done and then just come off throttle on corner exit to let you back past if you're even vaguely wheel to wheel
Wow you can actually see the tyre wear on the actual tyre! Look at his front left tyre.
7:14 camera man walks through the photographer
Already Ferrari have two more race wins in the F1 2016 game than they have in real F1 2016.
You know what would make me instantly want to buy this game?
2+ people online career mode. It's annoying having 3-4 friends and wanting to play the career with all of them when we're limited to one teammate.
Just wondering, all these problems you mention such as understeer in practice but fine in the race and tyre wear etc. Didn't these get fixed in the closed Beta?
closed beta was time trial only
That's a bit poo on CM's part.. Surely a Beta should cover everything to sort out any bugs. I hope this isn't the same as every other year and they release a broken game!!
Maybe so but it still seems it's not been fixed. I hope it is in the final game though, I love the series and I've played in leagues
The poor grip he has at the very beginning of practice - when he does everything - is realistic, so I certainly hope it doesn't get "fixed".
i see in a lot of other videos they dont have any problems with understeer and tire wear so maybe he is just bad at the game.
You should be able to do the lap after you finish and come back into the pits so you can pick up rubber and if you win do doughnuts etc.
Damn, new People will wonder where the fcking Weel is.
+Aaron Arcon kid go away
I don't know what the guy in question said, but if you're going to try and insult someone, don't censor it...
+therealjeagles oh okay. Fuck you. Good enough for you?
shuntaro2408 Much better, thank you x
No problem :D
great video dude! More 100% races please :)
Those parks when riccardo and hamilton crashed... WOW
Hey Ben great video! One request though can you leave up the tyre wear or temperature telemetry longer and more often? I love watching what the effects of the race have on the car in this year's version.
Thanks for doing career mode u made my afternoon while trying not to crash at Monaco
the slip stream is much more effective than last year
ben, you seem to be updating your car really fast. is there more than 5 updates for each catagory because at the rate your going itll only be about a season until your fully upgraded which would be a shame.
7:00 Why does it say that Pedro de la Rosa set the lap record in 2005 when it was Michael Schumacher in 2004 with a 1:30.252 ?
Because Michael Schumacher set the record on the old track layout.
Elliott Hurst alright, thanks :)
Try playing with the set up to get better turn in
There are fireworks landing in the paddock area... RUN!!!!
19:23 1.8 sec stop, wow
Maybe its not understear but the difficulty. I like the fact that you can not go from last to first in 3 laps. Its realistic
great video Tiamet! you are the man! what program do you use do record your videos? i tried fraps but doesnt work right =/
Good video man
keep it going dont stop ben,this is great just make your career video a little bit spacey until the climax time 19th august,so dont hurry your career,but play safely
it would be better if he finish this mini career quicker so we can have a little break until his full career begins
set your laps at the end of the session as track evolution seems to be a thing so try your tests then
ben im so hyped for this
This reminds me of F1 2006. Might buy it
I didn't like the transition from when u sped it up to normal... normal looked sooooo slow
Good staff. Thumbs up.
Are you running with all aids off? Would be nice to see the car settings
It's interesting to see you got a far better race pace than qualifying pace. Do you think this is more game-related or is it a matter of your race style?
In the tire selection, I guess you would have to have changed a later stint to medium first (rb / lb on top) and then you could have changed the starting tire to soft.
it's f1 championship edition all over again
19:23 1.8 second pitstop?
You had the opportunity to change tyre type for each stint when you pressed X...
1.8 pitstop. World record pitstop I can't believe that
8.52 i think you should change stint 2 or 3 to start with soft tire
Damn was it so hard to answer me to this question about the engine failure?
Are the bars relative to others or not? And in the whole career can you only upgrade each thing by 5?
Has the Red Bull got the aeroscreen? In the Onboard camera is seems like it has got it
1.8 sec. pit stop, that would be a record in real life
resource points should be way more difficult to get. you'll be able to upgrade the car to the front of the grid by the end of season 1. should be much harder than that, and if you crash often it should set back development focus to repair and produce current parts
6:09 can other teams also upgrade car?
Yes
It's interesting to see, that you have such many problems with handling, tyres etc. and xmattyg has none of these. I watch both careers and xmattyg was really good in the tyre test in practice for example...
Love the vids Ben and can't wait for your F1 2016 ones. But please, don't complain about the Ultimate AI difficulty. This is the first time we've ever had top quality AI who will battle and race hard and be very tough to beat. It will take getting used to and thats the challenge.

A real F1 team usually does tire testing in P2 and qualifying runs in P3, where there's a lot more grip. Does this work in the game?
You can create your own driver's face? That's cool!
is it the fastest lap in bahrain is around 1:28 to 1:29? i forgot
Yeah around there
1:29.4 set by hamilton this year
so if my calculation is correct,ultimate difficulty should have done 1:29 instead 1:31
in qualifying yes. But hes playing on legend difficulty
Can the player car have failures. tyre gearbox or engine failure? also it would be cool if there was an option for variable pitstop times with chances to simulate team errors like at monaco or really fast pitstops.
Still not good enough from the AI Ben turn the difficulty up ffs
Think he has it at hardest
No it's on Legend, the hardest difficulty is Ultimate.
It's kind of a double edged sword - on one side Ben is miles better in the races (but only the races) on the other he wouldn't even be close to competitive with the AI
If you had failures as well that would be sick.
The same post-race animations? It's getting boring already... I love the fireworks though!
Stop complaining, be happy they have made a brilliant game. Its people like you that ask for too much.
id rather them copy and paste a cut scene that i usually skip and spend that time developung an incredibly in depth, 100% better game than last years
Preview build. Pretty sure there will be more in the final game.
Platfoot
No maybe not. But a preview build means also that not everything is showed. Its not the full, complete game. Older build. For that reason you l have to be carefull having directly a negative opinion about maybe 1 or 2 videos you have seen about a game like this.
Exactly what i was thinking
Is your career getting more difficult if you adjust the diffuculty to ultimate, or is it just the ai on track?
will the name on the suit change as well? Would like to start my career with Haas but it would annoy me if there is a giant Gutirrez on my back :D
hey ben...this is on pc right? what are your pc specs? :) looks awsome :D
Ahhh im in love with this game
Ai retirements great! I wonder if our engines fail as well??
