Since it’s release, it has been nothing but bugs, and patches that don’t really fix the major problems. If you are looking to play strictly offline career, the game is fine but if you are like myself and many others around the world who run and compete in online leagues and lobbies… this game is an absolute disaster. I’ve played many sport games in my lifetime and this has been the most frustrating online sport/racing experience of my life. not to mention the fact that after almost a year of playing the game weekly, a patch came out about a month ago and conpletepy erased all in game progress and setups i worked hard on and was forced to start from scratch. Terrible.

While the game may look fantastic, it plays awfully. Paid full price to basically beta test a game riddled with bugs. AI behaviour isWhile the game may look fantastic, it plays awfully. Paid full price to basically beta test a game riddled with bugs. AI behaviour is laughable. Bugs reported by many users since launch ignored/still not fixed (4 months later!), dev too concerned with releasing shiny new circuits than fixing the detrimental gameplay issues. I wish I'd never bought it. It's so bad my group and I have gone back to the 2020 version. Will not buy 2022.

I've only played this game a little bit as part of a trial period, and it is without a doubt the worst F1 game I have ever played. ForI've only played this game a little bit as part of a trial period, and it is without a doubt the worst F1 game I have ever played. For context, I have played every F1 game since 2009 (including the greatest racing game of all time, F1 Race Stars), and this game is an absolute let down. It's unfinished and should NOT have been released. At all.Firstly, 3 of the tracks from the 2021 FIA Formula 1 World Championship were not in the game at launch, and 2 of the tracks that had updates irl were the same as in 2020. Not to mention all of the bugs and glitches present too (I never experienced these, but I've heard about them).The handling in this game is the worst it has ever been. Your car will just slide all the time like it's driving over ice, kerbs spin you out ALL the time, it's horrible.Codemasters have made the biggest mistake ever by letting that greedy, disgusting, evil, excuse of a company known as 'EA' purchase them. EA deserve nothing whatsoever to do with F1 or ANY racing game, or just anything to do with gaming altogether. If F1 2022 turns out the same, I will never buy another F1 game ever again, and I say that as a die-hard F1 fan. Screw you EA and everyone who works for you.

Probably the best racing game available for a PS console. The graphics are superb, the driving is insanely realistic, the licensed content isProbably the best racing game available for a PS console. The graphics are superb, the driving is insanely realistic, the licensed content is the best you can find. Obviously the game had some issues at first, since the racer stats were still to be implemented into the game, but that's in the past. The game modes are really detailed, down to car preparation and all of that. What could have used a bit more of work is the presentation. In-game music and UI could have been better. To those who complain about penalizations, do you even know the F1 rules? It's not a demolition derby game, buddy.

At first glance, this year’s installment of the Codemasters’ Formula 1 franchise might seem very similar to the game we played 12 months ago. However, the improved driving model and the revamped, more engaging story mode make F1 2021 a significant step forward and the best game in the series.
