Ah I forgot to put a note in during the sound section about how the engines are different in the cars so they should sound different regardless. Oh well 🤷♂ Anyway - content is slow these few weeks because I'm hard at work on the next big documentary. More info coming soon :)
If you're wondering why the 2022 game doesn't have the high-end whine of the 2021 game, it's due to a real-life regulation change which mandates the small wastegate exhaust to be connected to the main exhaust. Pre-2022, the wastegate exhaust could be separate from the main exhaust which led teams to exploit it for aerodynamic gains. The 2022 regulations have now outlawed this.
I have last year's F1 2021 and if not for the fact F1 2022 will be crossplay ( In an upcoming update I understand) then I would pass. I am 67 and play games online with my son who lives 60 miles away. I have an xbox1, and he has a PS5. We play COD games together and wanted to race F1 together. So I guess I will be buying this. : )
This is actually so sweet, yet it makes me miss my father. He sadly passed away in 2017 due to a very short fight with Geoblasthoma, which is an aggressive form of brain cancer. He was 68 at the time. He loved football a lot and would sit with me watching me play FIFA from time to time. I hope you and your son have many more fun filled sessions together playing your games and cherish these moments.
I know it's very similar to last year's game and I know it's owned by EA now, but the Codemaster games have never really been about visual improvements but more about the cars and the experience, and looking at the new features and physics updates I think it's worth a buy, at least from me who actually watches the real season. It is a little pricey for some physics and gameplay updates, so maybe for more casual players it would be better to stick with 2021 or 2020. Loving the video as always, but I was also wondering if we could maybe see some gameplay comparison in the future?
Exactly, man. I myself have never played the Dead Space games, but have watched entire playthroughs of the trilogy. With that said, I really am kinda hesitant to give EA money for acquiring the studio that made Dead Space, and only to run it to the ground and then make a remake out of it. But hey, at least The Callisto Protocol is coming out soon.
@@sushigimme for real.. been around EA since my dad worked there and even then it sucked. Its like the Walmart brand of video games since 2010s. Even earlier
I’d argue that while the biggest difference is in the car physics given the reg changes, the graphics are way better. The lighting and car and environment looks really good for a racing game.
@@mccririck01 Yeah and also it's very hard to understand from videos as if gameplay has changed or not. Overall i think driving is easier. I play with 63 difficulty slider in previous one - f1 2021 which is hard and nearly with no help- only automatic transmission, i applied the same settings here and played about an hour. There wasn't even 1 instance that my car spun, it's much easier to control the cars this time.
I like how now that this one has an EA logo on it, people are like "same game as last year boo", my brother in christ this is literally F1 2017 with a graphics update from 2019 and 5 out of 6 games were 100% Codemasters
As it’s an officially licensed product they had to wait until the teams built and then subsequently released their respective cars. Something which was postponed because of the Coronavirus pandemic. If the new cars are postponed and the old cars are tweaked aerodynamically to an intermediate regulation that is what the game developers have to work with. Is your disdain for the game’s developers such that you seriously thought they were withholding the new cars until this year?
I’m testing my 10 hours in it these days. It feels, looks, and sounds great. I’d prefer a return of the classic cars and they being playable in multiplayer over the new F1 Life and supercar nonsense any day. If I want to drive supercars I’ll get a supercar game tbh.
exactly my point. the game looks, feels and sounds great. but this f1 life nonsense is honestly a turnoff. braking point was hella mid but I'd prefer it over this. + why haven't we gotten classic cars back? I don't get what limitations there are that stop them from doing what they did in F1 2020 and having said classic cars. If I wanted to race supercars, I'd play Forza or Gran Turismo or PC2
Honestly speaking. I wish they would stop putting classic cars in the mainline F1 titles. It is a neat novelty feature but it just ends up being a bit of a letdown because you really only get a few historic cars and can't really put them in the context that actually made them interesting/famous. If anything, I would rather EA have another team working on a separate historic F1 season series. For example. In 2024, you might have the normal F1 2024 release but you would also get something like F1 1988 where instead of having just a random smattering of historic cars, you would have an entire grid of season appropriate cars/teams.
I only really decided to buy F1 22 because I didn't own an F1 game before. It's only this year when I decided to get into sim racing, and it's only this year that I started watching F1 from the very start. The game sure is a challenge, but when you manage to finish a race in a decent position when you have mostly realistic settings, it makes it very satisfying. I play with most assists off, except for traction control, which I have set to medium, so I could somewhat keep my car under control while the A.I. can actually make mistakes. One other thing I noticed is that some kerbs will make you absolutely lose the car. Take the outer kerbs at turn 10 on Bahrain for example. You go just a little bit over it, your car will bottom out and you cannot do anything. One must be really cautious with those kerbs.
Yeah, and so what? As long as the game feels somewhat realistic and allows me to race with my steering wheel, I'm happy. Games like Assetto Corsa just aren't quite as fun when you're actually racing as I struggle to get my braking points right without having massive lock-ups. F1 22 provides a much more accessible experience in simracing.
@@tomvsas I'm kinda in the same situation as you but I watched my first F1 race for over 10yrs the other day. I've just played the F1 21 ps4 demo but tbh I might just end up buying this since it's the most up-to-date. What wheel are you using?
@@dennistonrockstone I use a Logitech G923. Pretty standard wheel for people who just started. Decently priced and has a decent amount of features, including force feedback and vibration support. Is also very easy to install, so overall a great wheel if you're looking to get into simracing.
The cars have much improved handling over last year, which is not a small item for PC drivers. And the VR experience is fantastic. You have the feeling that you in the car, rather than looking at it. Makes me feel more like being part of a team as well, when the mechanics are working so hard in the garage. The release from garage experience is exceptional. When they remove the tire warmers and the director waves you out. Get in there!
The sound positioning and way other engines fill the experience is more visceral. I like the acoustic model more in 22. The game looks great, sounds great and has the same AI which is what made the last few F1 games great. Very tempting!
I like the driving way better on 22 yes curbs will send u flying but the car is easy to control vs 21 I felt like I was on rails going off the track every turn
2:47 this angle really shows the difference in Red Bull's livery and I really like it. As a Red Bull fan, I've always absolutely hated their liveries from 2016 onwards. The 2022 livery looks so good on the other hand. I still prefer the liveries from 2009 to 2015 but the current livery is 1000 times better than last year's. It's probably my favourite livery on the grid right now.
I care very little about these games. But i still find the way he presents and explains things & has a formula thats enjoyable to flow with and stay interested. Thanks for these videos I've been bed ridden and they are calming and interesting as Hell coming from my career. Be well.
Still prefer F1 2019 In terms of graphics, and most importantly, content. Hell, it has even more cars than 2020 and the senna vs prost challenges are amazing
I bought 20 and 22 but not 21. Pretty satisfied. Yes there are downgrades in graphics here and there but that to me simply makes sence as now the game file size is significantly smaller (atleast on PC).
I love seeing dudes who are mostly known for general video game documentaries covering racing games. Honestly it bugs me that racing games aren't seen as mainstream anymore and it bugs me how many people I know that don't play them at all, or have only played trash like Burnout or NFS (I do enjoy NFS and arcade racers from time to time but if you're only gonna play one type of racing game, that's the worst you could choose IMO) When I grew up racing games were one of the main types of games people played. Maybe it's because the technology back then meant racing was one of the few things games could do well
I mean... it does, doesn't it? Maybe the rain directly around the car would change direction because of the wind force - but rain direction is determined by the wind not how fast you run through it.
@@Nick930 Rain falling from the sky would be perceived as tilted in the direction of the car at high speed. You're approaching the falling rain after all. I think they're on about the rain on the camera, which would be going the direction of the slope. But, since the camera is vertical it should be going in all directions, not just downwards, due to the air hitting it the vertical plane and flowing around it. Also, rain would move with the turning and velocity of the car, as seen in Assetto Corsa and such.
I've noticed that u play with ABS off, which means u are experienced in the game. But at the same time, u don't follow the exact racing line or the usual breaking points... So idk if u are an F1 fan or not. Some things weren't mentioned similar to last year's review; A few tracks were changed to reflect the real world, some curbs were modified with the addition or removal of the sausage curbs. It's also worth noting that the game's wheel support is not functioning properly (so far). Moreover, the game has new features including time attack pit stop as well as a precise grid placement (u need to stop at the exact line before the start of the race). Finally, they also added F1 life which is EA main money grabbing feature; u can own a house, decorate it, and drive cars with implementation of the safety cars as well.
@@7ndrew purpose built and showing its age, okay. This is the same game every year, time to switch things up. If UE is good enough for games like ACC then it's good enough for F1. Not to mention codemasters is an unreal engine partner now, so it's a matter of when. Same with their WRC game. I don't get any UE stutter so not sure what you're on about.
@@msum23 i'd rather have Ego over the shitty SSR and TAA most UE games come with. ACC looks unbearably broken in the rain. And it's literally not worth the effort to start and remake the entirety of what Codemasters has already built up from scratch, for a minor visual upgrade.
My very last F1 game was on the PS3 console. Have been a fan of the sport for a long time but will be getting PS4 version mainly for the new look 2022 cars alone.
The biggest deal for me is the forced TAA. TAA can be controversial in most games anyway, but when it's biggest downside is how it handles motion, its really not a good fit for a racing game. Some people might not mind, but there's no good reason to ever remove an option to disable ANY anti aliasing, if only to allow for supersampling on high end/future hardware.
How to disable TAA: Go to the configuration file(s) location (%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\F1 22\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml) Open the hardware_settings_config.xml file in a notepad. Change antialiasing taa=true to antialiasing taa=false. Save the changes.
I love 21 and 22, but wish 22 would have kept post race interviews and things like that and NOT added the pointless f1life thing. Otherwise I have really enjoyed both. 22 ai is much different. They are extremely aggressive in corners now.
Good video as allways but my problem is that if you say 'not much have changed' your sheep are there to say the exact same thing and call this DLC or an update which is not fair. I have every F1 game starting from 2002 abnd I can tell you, this is not just an update. They did good work on this game and a lot has been changed. VR is possible now (remember the no VR/no buy guys?) The new cars feel amazing and very 'realistic' or less arcade like, sounds changed a lot but you cant hear that in a review video and the addition apof many other stuff like the supercars is very welcome even it you seem to think its just there to get a bigger audience. Good video but an even better game.
Yeah but youre still paying full price for 95% of the stuff that you already had in previous installments, think about it, they couldve just released the contect you speak of as an update, its just ea being ea lol
@@aussieknuckles They aren't full price though. At least on PC they aren't. In the UK, the standard price for a game is £60-£70, whereas F1 22's Champions Edition on Steam was only meeting that, and the standard edition was £50
Fully agreed, the only ones complaining are kids and cheapskates, the way the new regulation cars drive alone is worth getting the game for, and the amount of new details really add up to make this game a fresh experience.
These aren’t just slight updates to the way the cars look because Codemasters or EA is lazy or not doing their job. Please go read the actual F1 rule changes for the 2022 season and you’ll see this seasons cars are fundamentally different aerodynamically and the car design reflects this - the game is just reproducing how the actual cars look. This video should only be comparing the graphics and audio quality of F12022 to F12021. The real question is do the ‘21 cars feel different to drive compared to the ‘22 cars
I don’t have the game but from the gameplay videos I’ve watched it does seem like EA has done a commendable job at overhauling the handling model. It seems the new cars behave noticeably different. I’m still on the fence about getting this one, the new regs make it tempting but maybe waiting a year will give EA the chance to hone in on the physics.
Have they fixed the wack handling model? Car shakes from side to side on straights and flips out at corners never had that happen in any other F1 game.
I really like the wording adopted to use only four wings and remove the nose gap All of these were done because of regulation changes and not personal decisions Next time you should use a bit better wording
I don't typically cover performance in my content but I did test it. Because there's more ray tracing effects, performance at max settings is roughly 10fps less than last years game on avg. DLSS helps just fine tho
@@Nick930 This type of game barely changes compared to the previous one but little by little the performance is getting worse, they also force you to use DLSS and moving the game, let's say to a native 4K, becomes impossible
I finally got to play f1 22 last night 2 things i have noticed that’s a problem for me 1 is social play finding a lobby is very slow and there are a lot of problems with connection on everyones side 2 the sound when I’m driving in social play far away from all the other cars sound is perfect but as soon as I’m close to another driver the sound is all scratchy like the game doesn’t know what’s going on It will probably be fixed if not I think this game will die soon for me
@@n0body550 yes I didn’t but the game just to play against the AI and no it’s scratchy sound like it cuts in and plenty of pro’s on pc talk about it and to fix it they lower the sound quality and on ps4 you don’t have the option to lower sound quality so you have to deal with it untill they fix it that’s if they fix it
Yeah it's just to show the cars interacting with the lighting. I only like 3rd person driving in games like GTA or Burnout. Simulators I prefer cockpit view.
I think this Is the thing with Ray tracing. It will set the default graphics back a bit in stills but when playing the game you notice the difference. Just from the cars moving in this video you can see the extra lighting on the cars in 22 compared to 21. I'm still running a 1070 gtx so for me I won't notice this but now raytracing is becoming the norm I'm going to look for a new car in the next 18 months.
Ah I forgot to put a note in during the sound section about how the engines are different in the cars so they should sound different regardless. Oh well 🤷♂
Anyway - content is slow these few weeks because I'm hard at work on the next big documentary. More info coming soon :)
here's the worst thing about F1 22, and that's no porpoising which is really visible on the real cars especially the Mercedes
can't wait
Where are the sparks?
F1 2022, they practically completely remove that.
In real f1 they still exist, much more present than in the game.
If you're wondering why the 2022 game doesn't have the high-end whine of the 2021 game, it's due to a real-life regulation change which mandates the small wastegate exhaust to be connected to the main exhaust. Pre-2022, the wastegate exhaust could be separate from the main exhaust which led teams to exploit it for aerodynamic gains. The 2022 regulations have now outlawed this.

Not willing to give EA money for these "updates".

Just the regulation change itself is worth buying this year. This is way more than an “update”

I've noticed that u play with ABS off, which means u are experienced in the game. But at the same time, u don't follow the exact racing line or the usual breaking points... So idk if u are an F1 fan or not. Some things weren't mentioned similar to last year's review;
A few tracks were changed to reflect the real world, some curbs were modified with the addition or removal of the sausage curbs.
It's also worth noting that the game's wheel support is not functioning properly (so far).
Moreover, the game has new features including time attack pit stop as well as a precise grid placement (u need to stop at the exact line before the start of the race).
Finally, they also added F1 life which is EA main money grabbing feature; u can own a house, decorate it, and drive cars with implementation of the safety cars as well.
f1 life is all visual so i dont mind
Decent looking game, 22 looks better but still need that UE5 upgrade next year hopefully. Ego needs to be phased out now.
hmm yes i really want a racing game with that great unreal shader compilation stutter instead of a purpose-built engine for racing games
@@7ndrew purpose built and showing its age, okay. This is the same game every year, time to switch things up. If UE is good enough for games like ACC then it's good enough for F1. Not to mention codemasters is an unreal engine partner now, so it's a matter of when. Same with their WRC game.
I don't get any UE stutter so not sure what you're on about.
@@msum23 i'd rather have Ego over the shitty SSR and TAA most UE games come with. ACC looks unbearably broken in the rain. And it's literally not worth the effort to start and remake the entirety of what Codemasters has already built up from scratch, for a minor visual upgrade.
My very last F1 game was on the PS3 console.
Have been a fan of the sport for a long time but will be getting PS4 version mainly for the new look 2022 cars alone.
I would personally get a next gen console for this game, theres a few features the ps4 wont have compared to the next gen consoles
@@n0body550 For now, not enough good games I'm interested in getting PS5.
22 is WAYYY better in every way. Handling, graphics, etc. Excellent game
Haha wait till EA milks F1 Life….
Pfft it’s worse in every way mate, the graphics and gameplay and experience got ruined completely
Hey nick! Great videos, keep going well !
im excited and awaiting about Battlefield 3 versus 4. 😊
The biggest deal for me is the forced TAA.
TAA can be controversial in most games anyway, but when it's biggest downside is how it handles motion, its really not a good fit for a racing game.
Some people might not mind, but there's no good reason to ever remove an option to disable ANY anti aliasing, if only to allow for supersampling on high end/future hardware.
You can disable the Antialiasing from config.
How to disable TAA:
Go to the configuration file(s) location (%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\F1 22\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml)
Open the hardware_settings_config.xml file in a notepad.
Change antialiasing taa=true to antialiasing taa=false.
Save the changes.
2:18 this is not design, it's regulation
I love 21 and 22, but wish 22 would have kept post race interviews and things like that and NOT added the pointless f1life thing. Otherwise I have really enjoyed both. 22 ai is much different. They are extremely aggressive in corners now.
Good video as allways but my problem is that if you say 'not much have changed' your sheep are there to say the exact same thing and call this DLC or an update which is not fair. I have every F1 game starting from 2002 abnd I can tell you, this is not just an update. They did good work on this game and a lot has been changed. VR is possible now (remember the no VR/no buy guys?) The new cars feel amazing and very 'realistic' or less arcade like, sounds changed a lot but you cant hear that in a review video and the addition apof many other stuff like the supercars is very welcome even it you seem to think its just there to get a bigger audience. Good video but an even better game.
Yeah but youre still paying full price for 95% of the stuff that you already had in previous installments, think about it, they couldve just released the contect you speak of as an update, its just ea being ea lol
@@verycheapyoghurt2566 Yeah, I'll wait until a sale. I got F1 2021 for like $11 not that long after it was released.
I agree with what you're saying, but I think what the fans would be happy with is a price cut, these yearly iterations should not be full price!
@@aussieknuckles They aren't full price though. At least on PC they aren't. In the UK, the standard price for a game is £60-£70, whereas F1 22's Champions Edition on Steam was only meeting that, and the standard edition was £50
Fully agreed, the only ones complaining are kids and cheapskates, the way the new regulation cars drive alone is worth getting the game for, and the amount of new details really add up to make this game a fresh experience.
Sound in F1 2022 is so amazing, what a great work there.
The cars are different because the rules changed, they had to simplify the wings because they went to more floor aero
I have that same idea lol
Love your video
Lighting and reflection from cockpit view seems to be so much better and realistic in F1 2022
The wheels look like balloons in 2022.
These aren’t just slight updates to the way the cars look because Codemasters or EA is lazy or not doing their job. Please go read the actual F1 rule changes for the 2022 season and you’ll see this seasons cars are fundamentally different aerodynamically and the car design reflects this - the game is just reproducing how the actual cars look. This video should only be comparing the graphics and audio quality of F12022 to F12021. The real question is do the ‘21 cars feel different to drive compared to the ‘22 cars
I don’t have the game but from the gameplay videos I’ve watched it does seem like EA has done a commendable job at overhauling the handling model. It seems the new cars behave noticeably different.
I’m still on the fence about getting this one, the new regs make it tempting but maybe waiting a year will give EA the chance to hone in on the physics.
The game is still developed by Codemasters.
They rewrote the entire code (handling)
@@ralfsstuff I volunteer to test drive a ‘21 and ‘22 F1 car back to back and then test the games to see if any difference 😎
There’s two reasons I’m sticking with F1 2021 til next year:
1: It’s EA Sports first go for years.
2: Las Vegas
They need to do something with racing games to make them more fun
They are already quite fun.
The legend is back
5:11 The Upside Down in formula 1 22. One side with spectators and the other empty.
Those reflections are very overdone in 22 with rtx considering new cars have matte paint
Not all
can you make a video of heroes might magic history all games please?
@4:10 is that the RT reflections?
Any updates on the Batman history?
Have they fixed the wack handling model? Car shakes from side to side on straights and flips out at corners never had that happen in any other F1 game.
I only bought this game because I'm a TH-camr otherwise I'd happily stick with F1 2020
Have they added commentary back yet?
Do you suggest f1 2020, 2021 or 2022?
I really like the wording adopted to use only four wings and remove the nose gap
All of these were done because of regulation changes and not personal decisions
Next time you should use a bit better wording
just bought a rig, looking to get an F1 game.... at the moment 21 and 22 are the same price on steam, is it so bad youd reccomend me going with 21?
2022 is a way better in term of driving
It,s called F1 22 not F1 2022, just a small note
Guys do we have any update on the batman documentary video?
The A.I.seems to have been tweeked. The A.I. drivers seem to be more aggressive and a little bit smarter.
Btw, its called F1 22 this year not F1 2022
Just picked up F1 2021 for £12 super fun on PS5 with 120hz. I'll wait till 22 drops heavily till then not fussed.
Can you do the History of Five Nights at Freddy's, Nick930?
So the car changes are purely down to the huge regulation change from 2021 to 2022
What do you expect? Tbh I really dislike how Nick handled this comparison because he overlooked the most important aspect of this game - physics.
Hey Can you Do a retro revivel for Unreal Tournament 1999
22's audio is head and shoulders above
Is that really worth 60$?
This guy's review clearly shows he doesn't know the first thing about formula 1
Good comparision but do you ever see it when you are driving!
Never played f1 but feel bad for the fans. Good luck, don’t know what ea is gonna do.
You didn't say if the performance got worse or better
I don't typically cover performance in my content but I did test it. Because there's more ray tracing effects, performance at max settings is roughly 10fps less than last years game on avg. DLSS helps just fine tho
@@Nick930 This type of game barely changes compared to the previous one but little by little the performance is getting worse, they also force you to use DLSS and moving the game, let's say to a native 4K, becomes impossible
I finally got to play f1 22 last night 2 things i have noticed that’s a problem for me
1 is social play finding a lobby is very slow and there are a lot of problems with connection on everyones side
2 the sound when I’m driving in social play far away from all the other cars sound is perfect but as soon as I’m close to another driver the sound is all scratchy like the game doesn’t know what’s going on
It will probably be fixed if not I think this game will die soon for me
So you bought it just to play online? Also are you sure that “scratchy” noise isn’t just the floor on the ground?
@@n0body550 yes I didn’t but the game just to play against the AI and no it’s scratchy sound like it cuts in and plenty of pro’s on pc talk about it and to fix it they lower the sound quality and on ps4 you don’t have the option to lower sound quality so you have to deal with it untill they fix it that’s if they fix it
@@andriesdupreez4170 Lol @ them then
It's F1 2019 4
id wish these games had good physics and ffb, but at least they finally have laser scanned tracks.
is f1 22 significantly harder to run than f1 21?
Aston Martin: writing
i know it's for the comparisons and all, but seeing someone racing with THAT camera is really disturbing for me
Yeah it's just to show the cars interacting with the lighting. I only like 3rd person driving in games like GTA or Burnout. Simulators I prefer cockpit view.
I think this Is the thing with Ray tracing. It will set the default graphics back a bit in stills but when playing the game you notice the difference. Just from the cars moving in this video you can see the extra lighting on the cars in 22 compared to 21. I'm still running a 1070 gtx so for me I won't notice this but now raytracing is becoming the norm I'm going to look for a new car in the next 18 months.
Rear wings aren’t visually damaged
All I know is that racing Monaco with a joypad on both games is effing impossible. I hate Monaco 😫
I manage fine, maybe you need to practice more
Have they made any changes and improvements to DLSS? It's been unusable in previous games introducing so many artifacts and terrible image quality
Nah seems the same unfortunately.
Where are the sparks?
F1 2022, they practically completely remove that.
In real f1 they still exist, much more present than in the game.
its just a game cry baby
VR is what may convince me to buy 2022.
temporal tech like TAA/DLSS is not good for VR. Or at least has to be tweaked for VR like automobilista 2
