im done with these annual games, they are a scam.
2020 was the best F1 game ever. Handling, audio, graphics, classic cars.
5:58 Why would you defend this? Adding in better FFB would be a trivially easy thing for them to add as an option, regardless of it being a simcade or not. Tiny studios with two employees manage to cram more features into their games than a franchise that has 20 years of experience making the same exact game.
My favorite F1 game in terms of atmosphere is F1 2010. I loved when you pressed start you heard a screaming V8. And the engineer who went completely crazy and was over the moon with wins and championships. The 25 engineer is like: yeah you champion, nice. Next
Nice to see Codemaster's graphics are still 10 years behind random sim game companies on PC.
1:36 I do not agree that removing the driver-owner aspect was removed in the name of “accuracy”. Being a driver-owner was one of the coolest elements of MyTeam because it truly felt like you were your own boss in that mode. This had no reason to be removed under the excuse of “realism” in a game that is also selling a Hollywood team as DLC
My favorite F1 game is 23 and 2020. Best of the pure EA and pure Codemasters eras respectively. A game that doesn't celebrate the 75th year of F1 doesn't deserve my money. Personally, I disagree with the rating. 6 or 6.5/10 is what I feel. MyTeam getting a refresh is great, the changed handling is great. But reverse tracks, 5 LIDAR scanned tracks, Braking Point (which should just be a personal player/career story mode anyway), APXGP, and accurate trees at Suzuka isn't the way to go to celebrate the 75th year of Formula One. They missed the mark there, big time. Imagine if Codies released a "normal" F1 2020 game without the option for classic cars.
F1 2020 remains the gold standard.
My favorite F1 game is Automobilista 2
F1 series are one of these games that are best to be purchased every 2-3 years, even for die-hard fans. The amount of added features and physics "improvements" in every sequel is so small, that after 2-3 years you can finally tell "Ok, maybe now is the time to get new one?"
IS IT REEEEALLLY? 😂 brand new physics engine, totally reworked FFB etc etc etc. I got fooled several times by reviewers, never again. It's new skins and the odd new track.
Not buying F1 games until EA loses the license
Automobilista 2 is currently my favourite F1 game with F1 2020 in 2nd.
F1 2020 Michael Schumacher Edition got me into the Series and I really loved it.
f1 2020 and 2019 are the ones i like to go back to due to 2020's good handling and 2019's even older cars than 2020 had
Nice summary guys! Was your in game footage captured on the PS5 version? The cars look like they're hovering in this footage, especially in wet weather.
Fav F1 Sim: Microprose Formula 1 Grand Prix from 1991. Probably spent a combined 2 years of my life on that game.
4:02 that is nothing new and has been a thing since F1 2022.
I’d happily take more laser scanned circuits in lieu of gimmicky reversed tracks
