IS F1® 23 FINALLY A SIM? - Sim Racer's First Drive!

With F1® 23 just around the corner, EA Sports have kindly allowed us early access to a preview build of the game to check out! This year among other improvements, they're claiming some significant changes to car handling.

So today we go for the first drive to see how it feels and if this is enough to entice Sim Racers back to the F1 Series.

I just care about the increased grip. I’m so tired of short shifting to 3rd or 4th gear and the car feeling like it’s on ice.

[Renvah]

They were asking this about '22, '21, '20, '19... and they will still be asking this about '24 and onward.
Guess the answer.

[Blitzer]

The answer is no but as long as it makes fun I dont care.

[Nearest_Neighbor]

Imagine they are like: "He mentioned the feel of the transition between aerodynamical and mechanical grip and the mid corner feel, let's work on that." Haha one could dream right?

[moogleslam]

As long as Codemasters are making it, the answer will always be no. There's obviously huge interest in Codemasters Racing RPG, so I can't fault them for that, but it would be great if a second company also had the license to make a sim out of it. This is not unheard of, with EA Sports and 2K both making NBA games, and there are other instances of this also.

[MurihSantos]

Finally someone playing at the cockpit view!

[prancesco]

Hear me out, there is a huge problem in sim racing. The best sims out there like ACC dont provide a deep career mode, they dont feel like games but sims of course. But at the end of the day? What's the fun in just that? Low fuel motorsport makes fun. But for me, its nice to have a purpose and having things to unlcock, a solid career mode. On the other end, F1 and GT do that at the cost of not being true sims. It comes down to preferences, but in my opinion i will always prefer a game that feels like a game in its content and features and doesnt solely rely on online multiplayer.

[bannerle]

Finally someone who drives f1 with the onboard cam🙏🙏🙏

[KayJblue]

My greatest dream is Kunos getting the F1 license.
I’ll still play these games (F1 2020) for fun but cars that feel like cars would be great.

[johng]

It would be nice if EA did the full F1 game as they are doing now with all the progression and career stuff but allowed kunos to do a bare bones sim with just the cars and tracks but with their physics models

[dwahnaslowdown]

I'm diggin' the visuals. Lighting and reflections look good - i.e. the way the sun reflects from the asphalt as you face into it. They've put a lot into that.

[robotripsenpai]

have you tried the VR yet? Interested on how well they implemented it.

[darwinLee]

Boosted... Thank you for Driving in Cockpit View
Let's Normalize F1 Games from Cockpit View
TCam is not Racing!!

[jonathan]

@7:38 Hamilton turning in on Verstappen? This might truly be a sim now😅

[TraumaTeamRacing]

It is nuts this still doesnt have triple screen support. As an F1 nut it would be awesome to bop around in triples on all the licensed tracks. Unfortunately until Codemasters release their grip I fear this won't come any time soon. At least they have embraced VR. Baby steps.

[fraizie]

10:32 what a perfect maneuver. Right into Gasly

[tdhitchins]

Played the beta for both sessions on this game, it’s a bit better than last year but the vr quality was really bad for me. Tried with reverb g2 and primax 8k x. Sure they’ll sort that tho as it was fine last year

[MegaIronica]

Please do a VR version review. The VR was notoriously hard to run on F1 22. Please remember to put minimum resolution setting to 100% otherwise, it would just reduce the resolution drastically to improve performance.

[Spronkz]

Did you test the VR? Curious to see if they've actually improved the trash implementation from F1 22. They haven't mentioned anything.

[chrisjung]

Please let us know if they addressed the jitters in VR. If it’s still a problem that will definitely impact a decision on whether to get this.
