Does that mean the game is closer to a racing simulation, a bit like DiRT Rally, than past editions? The overall theme for this year's edition seems to be about bringing it closer to the real sport. Everyone wants to race with a full grid of human players and I am delighted we can provide that. Obviously this also works very well for league play. Everyone reacts in different ways to different situations and putting pressure on an opponent feels more tangible when it’s a friend. Racing against human players offers a different dimension to the game. How do you think having a full grid of human players will change the feeling of multiplayer? It’s then up to you whether you want to develop your chosen team into a Championship challenger over a number of years or whether you work with your Agent to negotiate moves between the teams to eventually end up at the pinnacle of the sport. The higher ranked team you choose, the higher their expectations will be.īy working with your Research and Development Engineer and completing development tasks over the race weekends, you can improve the car in a way that suits your style. You start by selecting the in-game avatar and the race number that will follow you throughout your career as well as the team you want to begin with. This is the most in-depth career we have ever had in one of our F1 games, stretching up to ten seasons. Undoubtedly the biggest feature is the new Career Mode. Which is the single, biggest new feature of F1 2016 you'd name? We were able to get a brief Q&A with Principal Game Designer Lee Mather to shed some light on the most exciting new features of this year's edition. The new mode allows players to race as teammates or to battle it out as different teams as well as offering great possibilities for league play. The game will feature for the first time the so-called Multiplayer Championship, a game mode that allows up to 22 players to compete against each other over the course of a season. While their new project still needs to be revealed, Codemasters is pushing hard on its core franchises like F1 2016, due on August 19 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. A few months ago, Codemasters acquired Evolution Studios to form a 'UK racing Powerhouse'.
