The team manager at F1 for 2022 drives (pa Frontier)
A reader shares his thoughts on Frontiers’ first foray into an F1 management game. It suggests that it will please both hardcore and casual fans.
Formula 1 has become much more popular from time to time. Netflix’s Drive To Survive, last year’s intense rivalry between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappan, and this year’s regulatory changes that allow for closer races have increased the sport’s appeal and left a huge audience hungry for action and action. drama. So the release of Frontiers, complete with full FIA license, could be much faster.
Even if a player’s game is familiar with the key to the game, it would mean that there is a whole new dimension to this game: a racing weekend combined with familiar cars, faces and voices.
In fact, at first glance, the game may seem daunting even to a longtime F1 enthusiast. There’s a lot of information to digest at once, but a very welcome, fully voiced assistant guides you through the first steps and pushes the player to ground speed. Frontier clearly recognizes that the strength of their titles is due to their TV-like experience and this makes it clear that it will be shown sooner rather than later. It’s a treat.
The difference between F1 Manager and Playsports Motorsport Manager is huge, but the visuals are less in the same way as EAs F1 22. It’s very easy to get caught up in the action and realize it’s like being part of a Formula One 1 race weekend . Even if you don’t want to quickly get to the first race, you can easily find it to catch the next few hundred moments.
The race promises excellent results, but the engine sounds will always smile when you are in the sport. Each session can be fast-forwarded in increments of 2 and 16 respectively. Double Speed has no race views, so the faster options may change to dots on the map.
As tempting as it is to go through a boring race or predictable, it is always advisable to be careful with it; you should not miss any opportunities. The feed won’t change automatically if something else happens, such as a collision or pit stop, but it will take a lot of time for you, who can’t estimate your position and warn its drivers.
The simulation helps you take advantage of the use of tyres, fuel and the energy recovery system. Eliminate battery power and teach your driver to lift and drive for a few laps, only to provoke a stubborn rival and take them. It’s worth a look.
While the manager wants to watch the race unfold, there’s a lot to enjoy: in addition to the traditional race view, the player can switch to cameras that can really ramp up the drama, incidents abound in most races (although their view may bit strange sometimes); and with the game, the safety car also includes the augmented reality technology that doesn’t have to fend off a reload, can kick in the rough action and do a giroe, if you
Despite the fact that it is impossible to watch the race, it has a strategic element that can be the lifeblood of the game. One of your drivers is stuck on a DRS train? You can urge them to dry them up a little later for some clean air. Do you think your driver has to maintain tires for longer than you expect? Let them do it. Do you pay money for a safety car? This game will give you all the information you need to make a wise decision. It will provide a percentage of safety cars seen on the track in previous years.
Rain, of course, is one of the most common real life elements to mix up races. Bernie Ecclestone famously said he wanted to use trackside sprinklers that would be randomly available, and you only need to think about Spa 2021 to see what a big effect the weather has on a Grand Prix weekend. F1 Manager 2022 probably modeled this pretty well. The accuracy of the forecast at your disposal depends on the weather center. If you want more information, you are obliged to spend millions to upgrade the equipment.
The intensity of the rain is a surprise, although any rainfall classified as moderate or heavier usually requires completely wet tires. They are rare, as such extremes are used in modern times, and so when a modern revolution becomes an absolute dream of the game, the full wet or extreme tire is rarely seen in the extreme, but when it is done with us, situation is rarely seen in modern societies, and the cuff is rarely known as being in an unimaginably dangerous category.
In this regard, it would be easy to ignore practice sessions, as they offer nothing without excitement. After the first race, the player can be forgiven for wanting to get back to qualifying as soon as possible, but these sessions could make things much worse. If you let them simulate it can provide more than one-in-one knowledge for each driver, but if you take control of their own business, it’s often cheaper. This shifts the player more towards the engineer, with a mini-game where the driver reacts and the player has to modify the car to deliver the best performance.
Go wrong with the setup, and that Free practice 3 session can take a long time. One of the nice things about this job is the fact that the driver is dependent on his speed: while one driver may prefer their car to be more if the other driver wants to go the other way, and has a really real voice for each driver and engineer is another factor that maintains the sense of immersion. The fame that comes from hearing Lewis Hamilton and Pete Bonnington is another example of good use of an FIA license for Frontier.
While the game ended in its final stages, there are a few things we might want to consider. You get decent information about the racing history, but it’s unusual to hear from the drivers. Although the player has made catastrophic strategic decisions during the race, there is not a lot of racing power and a lot of press to play with. As with the rest of us, there is a big way out of this world. It would be great if the future update or new feature expands this gap.
While I don’t understand this, there is still a lot to do in between races, such as upgrading the cars, researching next year’s car and negotiating a deal. That another racing necessities that the competition race weekends already provide, and the lack of money and thinking about the year after the new season is on the way up.
That said, it sounds like an unfortunate chance that the player will not be able to watch or participate in pre-season testing, rather than provide the brief report on car rates alongside the competition. While negotiating contracts is not yet easy, and it is time to draft a new contract next season, the new signings are taking their positions right away.
And in addition to upgrading cars, drivers also have an integrated role-playing system that allows the manager to spend a lot of money in addition to increasing their resources. Finding new talent is fun. Grab the promising talent from the lower formulas, give them a reserve driver seat and take them into practice sessions. The old sports sim mechanic is at his best here and along with the manager’s relationship with their primary drivers, ensures that the team has an emotional investment.
It is a pleasure to lead F1 management but there is no one else with a different problem. Sprint races, which have been part of the real F1 industry for a long time, are not represented at all; while the implementation of safety vehicles is well thought out, cars with an overlapping car do not unload themselves after a period of safety car driving, which can lead to unwanted (and unrealistic) traffic jams. As mentioned before, the graphics issues related to crashes can help many people who few are in the habit of breaking the spell.
Frontier tried to grant the permit quickly. F1 isn’t as deep as Playsports Motorsport Manager as it isn’t as developed as it is now, but early signs suggest developers are listening and they’ve already provided some patches based on user feedback, working on topics like tire degradation and AI.
If you are an F1 fan, F1 Manager 2022 will take you to the edge of the weekends, but even if there is no real race, and you can prove that you have better knowledge than Mattia Binotto. If you like the idea of being new to Formula 1 or being intrigued by Drive to Survive then the game will be a lot of fun and you will get to know it a lot while driving.
Report overview of F1 manager 2022.
In short: a very good first attempt from Frontier that immerses the player very quickly and is also suitable for beginners.
Pros: Heavy use of the official F1 license means race weekends are fun and engaging. A welcome tutorial and the ability to simulate sessions make the game more accessible to the newcomer. A good amount of depth for those who want it.
Cons: In real life, you don’t have to worry about some real F1 elements, such as sprint races and cars breaking loose at the end of a safety car period. Some of the work can be done on paper. With interaction between driver and press after the race, it would really do what it was to happen.
