Codemasters Birmingham's Paul Jeal and Stephen Hood confirm in an exclusive interview that the inclusion of a safety car is being considered for next year's official Formula One game, as well as one hundred other new features.
Speaking during an earnings call, EA chiefs are confident that the Codemasters Birmingham team can continue to progress with the Formula 1 games.
Strength in game quality or in Microtransactions? Literally no EA game goes from strength to strength in quality, ask Battlefield fans.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "The racing genre has always felt like a perfect fit on handhelds, thanks to offering bite-sized sessions and being able to hide technical flaws behind blistering speeds and enclosed environments. It provides a large amount of variety too, from immersive sims to light-hearted kart racers (and my personal favourite, drift-heavy arcade racers!), meaning there’s usually something for everyone to enjoy.
Anticipation was high that the Vita would follow in the PSP’s footsteps as a handheld offering an unrivalled selection of racers, from muddy WRC titles to the clean racing lines of Gran Turismo. Beyond the initial months things didn’t quite pan out like this, but there’s still a nice spread of games available to cater to anyone’s tastes – and thanks to the addition of backwards-compatibility with PSP and PS1, the Vita ends up with possibly the largest selection of any console in the last 10 years, even if it's not all running natively on the hardware."
With the German Grand Prix this weekend, TheSixthAxis take on a short 3 lap race around the Hockenheimring in F1 2016. Racing as Serio Perez and getting up to 10th place, there's quite a surprising and abrupt end to the race...
OMG no Saftey car on F1 2010, that sucks, oh well it's still the most real F1 game so far but this is an obvous miscalculation to not include it, still getting this, F1'11,12.13 and so on, I'm a huge F1 fan.
I am so not buying this game now.
No safety car = No cash for Codemasters
I am so disappointed in this, i wanna cry and cut myself.
Worst racing game ever created!
I guess they had to pay particular attention to the coding of Vettel's car, if he doesn't crash into his team mate, no safety car and no ones the wiser! Although they'd also have to "forget" that the Hispania and Sauber teams exist, you don't want them causing any incidents.
