F1 2015 New E3 Gameplay videos: COTA, Spa, Canada and Replay Cams

Chris · Jun 19, 2015

Some more videos from Gamersnyde or something or other. The driving is excellent for E3 standards lol. Gotta say, I'm really not convinced that this will be any step forward in terms of realism. The cars still look like a total joke to drive. I'll wait for reviews to come out (proper reviews, not IGN or any of those cash-for-comment review sites) before I even consider spending money on this.

Looks very pretty, but really seems like the same regurgitated crap that Codemasters F1 division are unfortunately becoming known for.

COTA - RedBull
Canada - Lotus
Canada Replay
Spa-Francorchamps - Ferrari
Spa-Francorchamps Replay

I take this game as fun, but must admit it looks promising. Two very important things, finaly tv style replay camera!! and even AI can overtake player

(watched just spa replay) . Hope that difficulty will be enough. Thx for vids fingers crossed.

I think it will be good for a lot of people, including hardcore simracers like us.. I was pleasantly surprised by Dirt Rally

I really hope it's good, but the game play so far hasn't convinced me

If it's anything even remotely as good as dirt rally, then for sure I'll get it.

Here's gameplay with no assist, looks exactly like 2014..

hyjal · Jun 20, 2015

lul.... Same shitty steering assist for pad users. + the replay is focused on you once again. Well atleast they tried.

The sound sounds like from F1 2014...

Explain to me how that is exactly like 2014, and how you can tell without driving yourself? Are you God?

Sun Levi · Jun 20, 2015

Yeah I sort of went overboard and way over judged when I first saw it...First impressions aren't always everything

Having raced him many times, he isn't far off from being godly if his pace is any guide.

Here's more direct-feed footage, this time at Montreal in the rain:

Not going to jump to any conclusions as for me this game is make or break in the physics and FFB aspects, which you can't ever get an opinion of until you play the game yourself. Reports state these two areas have improved so hopefully there's a little promise there. I'm not expecting a sim, just a fun hybrid that leans more to sim than to arcade (where in my opinion the lean has been more towards arcade than sim in previous CM F1 games). A similar sort of direction to Dirt Rally I guess, which I'm adamant will become my favourite rally game ever if they continue to improve on it during early access.

Visuals and sounds-wise it's about as I expected, better than the previous games but not exactly mindblowing. It is Xbox One footage though so it's likely to look a little prettier on PS4 and PC.

Hopefully damage is turned off in these builds as there's multiple moments in this video where damage should have happened.

AI looks ever so slightly more aggressive now, but you can't really judge them off a few videos.

The driver looked like he needed to turn down the AI level. He was holding back the AI and once they past him they were gone.

And that's how the final AI is made.

The worst part is that it looks as though there is no ability for the player to change ERS settings, which basically removes one the most interesting aspects of these cars.

The game looks like 2010, but I was expecting that since the game is designed for latest generation of consoles, not PC`s.
My biggest problem is FFB and Arcade handling for Wheel Users.
They are selling F1 Licenced Game. So every year there should be Carrier for that year, practice , qualy, and race sessions.
I`m trying to find reason to buy 2015 but there is none.

Why couldn't they make the proper Redbull steering wheel?They said that they were basing the cars on the Winter Tests (before the season ) and will update the cars according to their changes and yet the steering wheel doesn't look the same as it was in the beginning of the season (melbourne). Just watch a onboard video and compare the two. They are totally different. It's not that I'm whyning about this but they said that they will take this seriously . Man then they should .
Them lazy guys.....

Matthew Booth · Jun 24, 2015

I would guess they are in the day 1 patch

Also all you've seen is in progress material nothing official gameplay wise just E3 promotional stuff. Id hold fire on it til reviews and people with the full version comment

jasamnajbrzinasvijetu · Jun 26, 2015

I`m really glad to see that Codies are finally paying attention to Handling. It does look promising.

Aren't you their new "handling director"?
It's better to come clean than to do viral marketing...

And this is coming from someone who also was pleasantly surprised from Dirt Rally and pre-ordered F1 2015.

There is no handling director... Doesn't even exist as a title

. I do the handling alongside another person and 2 physics coders. I am doing no viral marketing, I stated what I think, I am a hardcore simracer, and before that I have been a pretty good real race driver, with not enough money to continue my career sadly, and I do enjoy driving the cars in F1 2015. If you expect a full blown simulator, you are totally wrong, it is just not possible. But if you want to have the best handling in an official F1 game, F1 2015 will be that.
