    Still playing it to this day. Classic cars. My Team, no stupid gimmick and the cars feel really good.

      I still play to this day too, but i really dont like how the cars drive compared to F1 23, where they are much more responsive.

      I can't believe My Team is 4y old! 🙂 Anyway, yeah. 2020 had Vietnam, Paul Riccard, no Saudi Arabia. Yeah, it's pretty solid to be the best. I can't remember if it had quick practice. If it didn't, then that's a downside for it.

    Yes, after playing F1 2020 a lot recently, I can say that Sochi Autodrome is one of the best tracks. You can really chuck the car through the corners.

      I just want it back for variety. All we get is China and Portimao. The game is so stale now. We don't even get Paul Ricard anymore.

    I'm almost certain driver tranfers were f1 2019 but it was certainly parachuted into the game probably one of the best features that has been added also I really do love the content Matt keep it up

  • @steelin666
    @steelin666 Місяць тому +22

    Nice retrospective, but you got a few things wrong.
    1. The game lacked 70s and early 80s classic cars, which were in previous games. F1 2019 has the highest number of classic cars.
    2. The F2 cars have different wheels, at least visually - not sure if there's a difference in physics, one would have to look into the files. Anyway, it wasn't just skin swap.
    3. Sochi was still also in F1 2021.
    4. Driver transfers appeared already in F1 2019. Maybe that's why they didn't announce it as a new feature. What was new was that drivers could retire and F2 drivers could graduate in their place - F1 2019 shuffled the same set of drivers ad nauseam.
    5. There is no mod for F1 2020 that would allow transfering drivers on your own. Such mod was created for F1 22 and F1 23. There was a mod that allowed you to change names and you could swap faces, but that's not really the same, especially in career, where drivers have ratings tied to them.
    6. My Team features introduced after F1 2020 are Focus mechanic, department events, starting point choice (backmarker, midfielder, title contender) and ability to adjust money and research point gain rate. The last one was was very important, because in F1 2020 you easily became the fastest car somewhere mid season 2. Other new features that weren't My Team exclusive, but improved the mode were quick practice, mechanical failures and red flags. So I wouldn't say F1 2020 My Team is basically the same as in later games.
    Overall, IMO, F1 23 is a slightly superior game. I think it didn't replicate 2020's success for two reasons. One you mentioned - 2020 did benefit from unique circumstances that propelled its success. Two is that F1 22 killed the momentum for the series. 2017-2020 (maybe till 2021) F1 games were on steady incline and each installment brought some improvement and could be considered an upgrade, and people were genuinely looking forward to the next game. 22 broke that streak and 23 simply suffered from that broken trust. And now 24 is met with, again, mixed reception. And even the IMO superb F1 23 does not represent an improvement over 2020 that I would call worthy of 3 years. The series had a big stumble and it still haven't recovered.

    • @Astristul
      @Astristul 19 днів тому

      This is a great analysis. For me F1 24 is the best so far. Every game was an improvement, and 24 has it all. My Team career, normal career, co-op career, online challenge career. And if you're in online gaming, F1 World looks pretty neat as well.

    If someone wouls point a gun at me and say that I can only choose one F1 game to play for the rest of my life, I would choose F1 2020. It had everything. The cars felt great, we had My Team, we had classic cars, the AI was very good, it was really enjoyable to play. And, it was the first time when I had the current official F1 game. And apart from covid, that year started the most beautiful 3 years of my life. Sadly it's over now, but every time I play F1 2020, I feel like that I'm back there.

    I believe the reason that the F2002 was removed is that it was exposed that they ripped the model from an Assetto Corsa mod

    I bought this from CEX a couple of months ago (I buy any old F1 game from there) It was only £6, incredible deal for what this game is. I also got F1 2015 for £3.50 and that is also such a good game.
