F1 23 game review - Has EA course-corrected the franchise? - The Race - Lemmy.ca

TLDR: its F1 2022 with some new liveries, upddted physics and some new bugs

Yes but the updated physics actually make the game fun. When You spin or slide it feels more like your mistake than the game deciding F You. You can also correct slides and the game is now playable on controller, fixing the steering direction change lag.

22 was wank. 23 is the best in terms of driving since 17/18. The graphics are also massively improved if your on PC with all the Ray tracing features.

Curious about the control updates. Always found the f1 games pretty difficult to drive with a controller. Much more difficult than games like grant turismo, forza motorsport/horizon or grid, which are perfectly drivable with a controller.
Last year I planned to buy the F1 title, but ultimately skipped it because I wasn't exactly convinced that it was worth the money. Reading this, I'm not exactly convinced to buy it this year either. Guess I'll enjoy myself with going sbinalla in Assetto Corsa with the Race Sim Studio F1-like cars instead.

I wish Codemasters would focus on improving the core gameplay, co-op mode, league features, new animations, or returning classic cars over expanding the braking point drama styled story.

I need less couch customization and more substance to be motivated to hop back in to a yearly release.

Split screen 2 player?

Do you mean the co-op mode I referred to? That’s the online career mode you can do with another player they introduced in 2021.

If couch customization was confusing I’m referring to how they literally had a battle pass to give you more couches to decorate your virtual room lol.

I've been eagerly waiting for the announcement to see if this one will have motion control using the dualsense controller. GT7 has spoiled me

But sadly, it looks like there's no motion control this year as well

Xbox really held back the industry on motion controls
Haven't played an F1 game properly since 2013! I was quick at that one. We need c/simracing for sure!
I hope they've got the handling sorted. I barely played F1 22 because of how the cars handled, it just didn't feel good to me.
