Formula 1 2018- Upcoming Flawless Racing Game
F1 2018 remains a demanding game, and not just in the difficulty spike one sees at midrange AI levels, where a car’s limitations (or an opponent’s strengths) can only be overcome by taking greater control of the vehicle’s braking, transmission and systems. It’s also enormously demanding of one’s time in the career mode. The minimum parameters of three practice sessions, one-shot qualifying and a 15-lap race can still come out to 90 minutes per event, if a driver is taking all the practice programs for their research point benefit. Those who want to play more for their driver’s personal and professional development (thanks to new contract negotiations), or the car-building competition, might start to chafe at running the same practices, course after course, for 21 races. I get it.
The French Grand Prix is back for the first time since 2008, which means Circuit Paul Ricard is a new track in F1 2018.
For me, the obligation to really get to know the next track — this year, France’s Circuit Paul Ricard joins the game for the first time — invested me in the result I achieved on it. But yes, the tire, fuel, and energy recovery system management exercises (the car’s ERS is now manually controllable) began to feel rote, and I wasn’t getting much out of another lap around the course either. Skipping a practice got me an uncomfortable query from the reporter, or a scolding from the crew chief. There needs to be a way to simulate some of these tasks for a lower level of points, for those who want to get on with it.
There’s also an element of uncertainty in play (though I had to take it on faith, as I’ve only driven partial season so far). F1 2018 can — as FIA does in real life by issuing rule changes at the end of the season — revert progress in some part of a team’s tech tree. Players are supposed to have the option of spending resource points to protect a certain area, but of course those can be wasted if a player protects something that the new rules don’t come after.
