In what it proposes, F1 23 is virtually perfect. Keeping the graphic strength and refinement of mechanics that worked well in the previous game, it brought back a narrative mode that, along with an interface overhaul and quality of life, only improves what was already amazing.
EA Sports and Codemasters deliver another great outing oft he F1-series. F1 23 deliver tons of gameplay- thanks to the addition of Braking Point 2 and F1 World. Longtime-F1-players will be disappointed due to the lack of new features in the career-mode however.
F1 2023 is great, the breaking point 2 is a great story mode and am looking forward to future with this mode yes they have put in a f1 version of FUT but even that mode is good very good f1 this year
The new benchmark for the Codemasters saga? F1 23 via the breath of EA Sports releases the best vintage in terms of content for the license, especially thanks to the addition of the F1 World mode. Even if you are not really well guided towards the latter, it will fill many hours of your time with its many well-renewed challenges and quests. A lack now filled for the Formula 1 saga, which is still going around in circles in the animations and its technical rendering. The 2023 opus is a great gateway to the world of single-seaters, with the bonus of the continuation of Point de Rupture, the rather interesting Drive to Survive scenario.
It may not be remembered as one of the best titles in the series, but F1 23 has many arrows to its bow. From the driving model to the red flags, Codemasters has made an effort to make its simulation more accessible and fun without distorting its soul too much. The return of Braking Point mode is appreciable, while the addition of the F1 World hub is ideal for those looking for a quick challenge and who like to race online. Graphics, AI, and Career mode are aging badly and needing a refresh.
F1 23 is a good evolutionary step forward for the series. The returning Braking Point story mode offers an enjoyable narrative with mixed up racing challenges, while F1 World brings together solo challenges, multiplayer events and car evolution in an interesting, if not yet essential way. The most significant step forward comes with the revised car physics and handling, which can still punish your mistakes, but makes racing without assists far more accessible.
Braking Point 2.0 does offer some solid (if sometimes cringe-inducing) drama, the driving mechanics and presentation continue to impress, and generally, to an outlier, this is one fabulous F1 game. However, resting on your laurels only gets you so far, and F1 23 has failed to move the needle in regards to making F1 games even more compelling than they already are. By all means, pick up and relish another core EA and Codemasters F1 outing, but it's time the series stopped playing it safe and gave us something audaciously new.
This game is the same as last year, except of new reactions of the curbs and an overpowered traction, compared to the ia. Breaking point is useless, boring and cringe, the objectives are the same in all the story. There are the new car skins and new transfers but nothing else.
This game in not worth 80 € at all.
I am surprised that people are giving this game such reasonable reviews. As with any game EA Sports get their hands on, it is a buggy and unfinished lazy mess. Career Mode and My Team, the two most popular modes have been copied and pasted to the exact minor detail other than a couple of cutscenes which haven't even been optimised properly. Red Flags, which were disgustingly sold as a big new feature despite being such a minute and necessary thing for an F1 Game to have, do not even work properly, with race results being destroyed by their inclusion. I would love to know how it is acceptable to release a game at such steep prices when it so incomplete? This error can not have been an oversight, the game was released knowing full well the issue existed. Furthermore the game seems to be heading in a direction where EA Sports can extract the most amount of profit out of users (As with the majority of their games), with useless customisation options also costing real money. On a slight positive note the handling of cars has improved and allows controller players a better experience. Breaking Point was a strange inclusion following its absence in last years game, and is incredibly underwhelming, with most challenges involving the same mindless script. I do wonder wether this game mode was intended for last years game as I find it baffling not one of the challenges involves a red flag, seeing the importance they placed on it. I hold my breath on F1 World as for the time being it seems like a decent concept and one of the only reasons this score isn't lower. However it reminds me of Ultimate Team modes on other EA Sports games and I hate to think in what way this may be heading given the company's track record of micro transactions. In my opinion steer well clear of F1 23 unless the corrected drivers and liveries are worth £70 of importance to you.
