And I’m pleased to report, the handling model, I enjoy. So, onto the gameplay itself? How does the new “refined” handling model feel for F1 2014? Well, you have to take into account that I’m a pad user, so I like to think I’m in the majority of people who actually buy the game. So nice touch there, but it’s not accurate with Williams (They switched to the butterfly wheel but have the old one still), and through no fault of their own, cars like Red Bull, Williams and Force India are automatically at a disadvantage, a shame, but not entirely Codies fault.The camera angles like the T-Cam and the cockpit cam are still very good.

To update with the times, many cars now have big LCD monitors on them, and Codies has implemented that with the cars this year, and it actually provides some helpful info on engine/tyre temperature.

Bahrain at night looks great with the fireworks too though, even if you’ll be creeped out by the 11,000,000 floodlights around the track now. The two new tracks in Austria and Sochi in Russia though, are well rendered and fit in with the rest of the franchise well. Graphically, the game looks… pretty similar to last year, really. While that’s a harsh assumption, there is some validity to this sentiment, and in the course of this review, I’ll explain why.įirst up, let’s break down the graphics and presentation. With next-gen consoles now among us, and with F1 2015 already confirmed for next year, the feeling in the air is that this game is nothing more than a placeholder to tide us over until next year.
