Best F1 Management Game
Posted: Tue Apr 17, 2012 4:12 am
Been playing F1 2011 for a while now and am yearning for a management game, online or offline is good. Suggestions?

Pole Position Manager 2010, does not have FIA license but with mods you can get the real drivers etc. And anyways the original drivers, teams and sponsors aint that far off from real names for example some team names:

I've played that. It's alright I suppose. Kind of ruins the management aspect when you realize that anything you do to your car or the drivers you employ ultimately doesn't matter because one perfect setup (which is the same for all tracks) will put you ahead of everyone by quite a margin, so there's no point in developing the car. In something like five seasons, I only lost a dozen races. All due to crashes or calculating the fueling incorrectly.Tumppi57 wrote:Pole Position Manager 2010, does not have FIA license but with mods you can get the real drivers etc.
I Agree. I have been playing this for a couple of months and can say that it's quite easy to get hookedCriminal wrote:I am playing game called MyRacingCareer.

this one is the best, if you got time for itmoshbeard wrote:I'm playing http://igpmanager.com and enjoying it. Grand Prix Manager 2 is still the best proper F1 management game but it's very old now. I remember playing an EA management game in the early 2000s which seemed okay at the time but I barely remember it.
I wondered if other people from here would be on there. It's good but I do find sometimes you're left thinking "Oh that's bullshit"- But the range of options is impressive and all for free (I'm not paying for superlicense )LMSL wrote:I Agree.

I wish I had the money for the main indy series... The entrance fee is 1 200 000 € and it's a bit too much. My driver is better on oval circuits so I think I could do fine on that seriesSevenfest wrote:I wondered if other people from here would be on there.

Just put in an application for Indycar - goodbye $800,000..
It's a lot but I've been saving my pennies since it started. Some good sponsorship and good results went a long way!LMSL wrote:I wish I had the money for the main indy series...

And yes the variety of different combinations of cat setups and driver setups is overwhelming but still not too complicated. At first the game might seem difficult but after a day or two everything gets clearer and its a lot of fun
I bought it and manged tyrrell, determined to bring them back to their prime, hired Panis, Ralf Schumacher, got peugeot engines, hsbc sponsorship, bridgestone tyres (they used goodyear) and in 1999 won bboth titles, ralf taking the drivers titlemcdo wrote:I still play this fantastic and addictive game:
It's based on the 1998 season but there's an online community that has designed additions that update the game for each season onwards.
Holy crap, I didn't think it was possible to turn the backmarker teams into title winners in 1 season.Bobafett wrote:I bought it and manged tyrrell, determined to bring them back to their prime, hired Panis, Ralf Schumacher, got peugeot engines, hsbc sponsorship, bridgestone tyres (they used goodyear) and in 1999 won bboth titles, ralf taking the drivers titlemcdo wrote:I still play this fantastic and addictive game:

I remember the EA one.. half the teams would get the minardi spec ford zetec engines, even ferrari after 3 years, so it wa a bit on the silly side
Yes it is not possible as far as I remember, not in one year, no way. Only with a top team could you win in one year.mcdo wrote:Holy crap, I didn't think it was possible to turn the backmarker teams into title winners in 1 season.Bobafett wrote:I bought it and manged tyrrell, determined to bring them back to their prime, hired Panis, Ralf Schumacher, got peugeot engines, hsbc sponsorship, bridgestone tyres (they used goodyear) and in 1999 won bboth titles, ralf taking the drivers titlemcdo wrote:I still play this fantastic and addictive game:

I won titles with Tyrrell and Minardi but it took me like 6 or 7 seasons.
I once tried that out but in my opinion it is too economics-centered. MyRacingCareer is more about racing and so on. I don't know why but MRC is also very popular among italiansshift wrote:MyGpTeam, absolutely.
Massive community and immersive gameplay, very popular in Italy but also in other states.
Both 2d and 3d reproductions of the events.
It seems simple from outside, but this game has tons of variables.
The best imho.

I seem to remember winning with Minardi in 2-3 years (virtually every race). My way was to sign Diniz and another pay driver and hire as many top engineers, designers etc as I could. If you put up with a year of failing to qualify or finish a race a lot, it all came good after that. You designed the best car and had the best marketing team to bring in the top sponsors too proving, in the game at least, the drivers were the least important part.G1n wrote:Yes it is not possible as far as I remember, not in one year, no way.
