    I love the new driving system and the new cars look absolutely beautiful in the game, I drive on steering wheel so the overall experience has improved and it feels harder to spin out then in the previous game, I’m still getting used to the new structure but I like it, I would say that the f1 life part of the game is completely useless and has no depth behind it everyone has the same houseI love the new driving system and the new cars look absolutely beautiful in the game, I drive on steering wheel so the overall experience has improved and it feels harder to spin out then in the previous game, I’m still getting used to the new structure but I like it, I would say that the f1 life part of the game is completely useless and has no depth behind it everyone has the same house and the customisation is very limited there are also very few super cars out at the moment and you can’t drive full laps around the circuit in the car… Expand

New commentators bolster the already strong audio design. Track designs feel great and sprint races offer some variety. Adaptive AI feels good. Extensive accessibility options allow anyone to just jump in and play.

    Bad-
    Bugs and glitches happen a lot. F1 Life feels tacked on and meant only for microtransactions (think FUT and MUT). Limited livery and boring character customization. Only one new track was added to the game and that feels cheap. Supercars do not really expand or add upon the already established formula.

    Thoughts-
    F1 22 is a great entry point to the series for newcomers with lots of accessibility features and fun racing, albeit in a much more serious environment that demands precision and practice. For veterans, it comes down to whether you’ll enjoy the new handling and suspension, the redesigned cars, the new presentation features, and so on. F1 Life feels inconsequential as a whole, less like a central showcase of this year’s edition and more like a gimmick.

    Overall, this year’s edition feels like a pit stop rather than the next big step for Codemasters’ franchise (which could be next year, according to rumors). It’s another good Formula 1 racing title, one that will tide you over in many places and leave you wanting in others.    … Expand

    A játék jó.
    Az F1 Life érdekes,de azért a klasszikus autók jobbak voltak.

    This game is great in my opinion. A step up from the 2021.

    The new immersion features are great and the graphics are good. I love the shape of the new vehicles also. One of the best things I have noticed is that on this game you can really tell when the tyres are cold, when on an out lap you will struggle and will have to get some heat back into them, a great feature.

    I like the music which now plays in the menu, much better than the same theme over and over. F1 Life is a cool feature, I don’t see the hate for it. It’s nice to have something else you can do and to visit friends places is cool, I wish there was a few more customisation options for the apartment and a few more supercars tho. But it wouldn’t negatively effect an experience and it’s actually a good bit of fun.

    Overall this is a really good entry and if your an F1 fan I would recommend this 100%.    … Expand

    The addition of supercars and F1 Life are needless features, but the on-track action is as good as it has ever been.

    I personally really like this game, however I am a huge F1 fan so i am probably abit biased. I don't hate the new F1 Life section but I also don't love it, I haven't really touched it since launch so I am not going to complain about it.

    The cars look great, the racing is fun and that is what is most important.

    Transitional game - that is the easiest way to describe the state of the latest F1 game where Codemasters either didn't want to take the risk of adding a more ambitious game modes or they just didn't have time to prepare something like that in a year when the whole sport switched to a totally new form.

    Those who get their kicks not from the numbers and tables of a management game, but from phenomenal speeds on the track should choose ‘F1 22’. The annual release of this racing game consistently ranks among the top and has recently received an update that added even more content.

    Another year, another F1, this time with almost no major changes, microtransactions, dysfunctional VR support and ridiculously bad supercars modes and additions. Yeah, the first EA-published Codemasters game had some of their notoriously bad practices inside of it, and even though it is no surprise, it is a sad day, since last year's edition was one of the best F1 experiences ever made.

    Codemasters is taking something that was already great and trying to bring it into line with the modern reality of F1. Technically the title moves to incredible levels of quality, but unfortunately the impression is created that FIA's changes in the real life environment have not been translated so successfully to the corresponding digital one.
