Thankfully, that doesn't appear to be the case in F1 2014.įlashbacks still allow players to rectify lapses in concentration to get back on track and re-take that tricky corner that caused you to spin off into the gravel trap, while in easier modes, it seems like the rules are a little less strict, meaning less black flags, penalties and disuqualifications for being rubbish. Even in F1s 2010-2013, 'very easy' wasn't actually all that fitting a description, still providing a stiff challenge for a racing imbecile like myself.
Ignoring the suggestion, I chose to plump for the cowardly 'very easy' difficulty, having been burned by the steep learning curve of previous Formula One titles. Right off the bat, the increased accessibility is obvious, as the feeling of grip keeps the car on-course, and over-revving the engine doesn't cause you to lose that grip and spin out.Ĭompleting the Evaluation Test presents players with a difficulty level tuned to their abilities, which in my case sets things to the default 'normal' difficulty. If you're new to F1, this is undoubtedly the best place to start, while veterans can brush up on their driving and get to grips with the handling nuances that come with Codemasters' tweaked driving model. Going hands-on with the game, I chose to start from the beginning, hitting up the new Evaluation Test in which you're able to cut your teeth and become acquainted with the basics once more.
As ever, authenticity is front and centre for F1 2014, and fans of the sport will revel in the game's attention to detail.
This year, you can take for granted that all of the season's liveries, teams, cars, drivers and circuits will all be present and correct, alongside the sport's rule changes and handling discrepancies that come with the turbocharged 2014 cars. Played F1 2010, 2011, 20? Then you'll pretty much know what to expect from F1 2014, Codemasters' fifth outing with the official FIA Formula One license.
