F1 2020 vs F1 2019 | Direct Comparison

[@Nick930]

Hey folks, thanks for tuning in! Just a quick note before you comment. This video in particular focuses primarily on the visual changes that have been made, but the biggest changes to this game have been made to the available features and gameplay mechanics. I mention this at the end, but want to reiterate here in case you missed it. -New "My Team" mode to create your own F1 racing team from scratch and rise through the ranks -New 2-Player Splitscreen option (yes, even on PC) -Reworked handling mechanics -2 new tracks to race on (though they haven't added the most recent track currently being used by the league - can't remember the name of it) As a few have already noted below - the graphic quality may have been tweaked to improve performance on the console platforms. Still not quite sure why the PC version was affected - but the "downgrades" are not really noticeable in-game anyway

[@aldyantohp]

"Still not quite sure why the pc version is affected" Uhmm... splitscreen????????? You do know how taxing a racing physic can be to handle Edit: I mean seriously, try name other recent sim race game with splitscreen

[@Nick930]

Splitscreen should not impact the quality of the single player experience at all.

[@umosay]

@@Nick930 exactly, seems a small niche who will even use splitscreen... downgrading purely for that and making the others suffer seems weird. They charge too much as it is, but if we're going to see downgrades or sidegrades then we aren't getting our money's worth.

[@scfcfamily2153]

Hey, I need you to see this. The cars are different every year. Due to regulations every single car is different. I know you addressed this but essentially the cars are different from year to year. The changes each year is due to loopholes around the regulations. So, to be accurate, y u should have used a classic car to see the graphical changes. Been watching y u for years man. Keep up the good work!

[@scfcfamily2153]

Nick930 Furthermore, the engines will sound slightly different due to the modifications, so once again, a classic car would do it justice!!!

The fact that people dish out $50 a year for the follow up is beyond me... You have to skip 2 or 3 F1 games before you notice any improvement in graphics. F1 2019 had some actual graphical improvements, and you probably wont see that again until 2021/2022. In the meantime they nerf texture resolutions in some places, and buff them in others. It would be one thing if these games were $20 or something, but they charge a premium every year, and I have no idea how they manage to sell them.

Coming from 2018, 2020 is definitely a big improvement. I'm glad I skipped 2019. Also graphical improvements aren't what people care about as much. It's new features, updated tracks, physics, sound design, handling, new modes, and online mode is gonna keep people playing every year too. 50$ a year isn't a big thing to complain about. It's like complaining about paying $50 a year for a membership.

[@NikoBased]

@@nathanpickering6742 Well you would think with all of the money this studio makes selling games for $60 every year, they would at least have laser scanned tracks. Their sound design is decent in Dirt Rally, but flaccid in F1. Their force feedback models have always been extremely linear, and I've never been impressed with the campaigns. It's not like they're doing anything that well to begin with. The only way you can really enjoy an F1 game , is if you have a lobby full of competent drivers to race against. The AI algorithms will always be fast on the straights, and slow in the corners. Not just now, but forever. At least give us better graphics.

PS5 will have much more to offer in terms of graphics, so I'd say until then, just don't worry about how it looks on PS4, cuz it's really not gonna matter. If it still is only a very minor improvement on ps5, then I'd understand the complaints, but until then, I'd say just wait. Everything else in the new F1 is great though and it feels so great to drive, and that's the most I'm worried about in a game like this. The build your own team mode seems like it could be pretty fun, and online mode is just fun. I don't have much experience with these games, and I'm just getting used to my racing wheel, so it's not gonna matter much for me how good the AI or players are for a while.

[@baptiste2284]

F1 2020 is much better, car are more realistic on driving, wings damage are more representative, car reaction after a crash or a bump are better, we finally hear F1 sounds, My Team is such a big new mode....

@@triuvm honestly codies did put a lot of effort into the new liveries and tracks. And the Handling and Career mode. F1 2020 isnt about getting the graphics even better as f1 2019 acheived it pretty well. Its about new content which i personally prefer over what way the tree looks that i never look at anyway. Dont underestimate the amount of work that went into the new game. Content wise its a huge leap forward

great work man... kudos to your effort for making this video

[@priv1leged]

lets wrap this up: why even bother with visuals, when codemasters has limited funding and basically no time to start fresh with a complete redesign

[@ianmitchell5979]

This is EA Sports levels of duplicating, visually.

[@asushuracan5501]

again as i have pointed out in the comments this is true and its a common thing we annual sports games,if you are covering an official sports game like f1 its going to be allot of copy and paste and re used assets,its inevitable.what i would like to see is codemasters drop the licence to another top end eveloper as the ego engine is done as far as im concearned its an over ten year old engine this is why its starting to get that samy year after year look.

[@QualPapel]

One thing I find missing in F1 games is the gearbox sound. I don't actually know if in real life you hear it but in LMP1 for example, the gearbox sound is sooo good. It's a part of the racing and it seems to be underappreciated.

[@mxguitar1]

In F1 mostly all you hear outside of the car is them flying by with the V6 and thats usually it. If you wanna hear the gear changes go watch some onboards as thats where you’ ll hear them the most.

[@jonboy2950]

The 2020 version is really good. Its a lot more fun to drive due to the handling model and the force feedback. The new My team adds a bit extra to the game. Its just a pity that it has gone through so many iterations to get to the point now where it actually is quite good as people are tired of buying a new version every year.

[@George19090]

Nobody is forcing people to buy the game every year. But I agree that the last 4 years have basically been a recycled game

[@ZKN99]

Key gameplay changes are inportant as well. This review is accurate graphically but enhancement on the steering wheel, traction, ERS system and braking mechanics make the game soo much better than 2019

[@philohlrogge4207]

[@lukewhitebrook417]

agree with most of this, but i think the rain has been improved alot to be more realistic. in F1 2020 It's so good that sometimes it can be impossible to see anything further than 20 meters ahead of you when in rainy enough races, Tiametmarduk - another youtuber and e-sports driver - did a race in Japan and nearly crashed multiple times because he couldn't see where he was going. I would suggest a buy for this game - not only for the minor yet meaningfull graphical upgrades, but also for the better gameplay.

I feel like if you're that overly focused on the graphics, you're not really playing the game for what it is...

5:42 that is trick question. Both are bad because they involve new F1 cars.

[@s.g.6281]

1:39 ⚠️RACING POINT ALERT⚠️

If the handling has been enhanced with input from real F1 drivers, then that's a huge reason to upgrade. The driving experience is the only thing I'm interested in.

[@DaniMacYo]

If you have a wheel it’s so much better to drive than last years. Much improved. I’m sure it’s good on a controller to. Not a lot more they can do with current gen. But definitely the biggest improvements are in the physics, sounds, AI, traction and handling. Even the tracks have been improved with bumps and surfaces. Also more realistic elevations and widths to tracks. It’s definitely worth a try someday.

[@Nick930]

Very true - I'm using Thrustmaster's T300RS currently and it was way easier to play than F12019. Still need to get used to the wheel as I got it earlier this year, but it's a game changer for sure

[@DaniMacYo]

Nick930 Yes definitely. I’ve had a G29 since December 2018. It took me 6 months to get used to it coming from a controller. After a year I’m very comfortable with it now, it’s a lot of fun on any game.

[@rosvokomppania]

How big is the difference in reality? Everyone said this last year and it was just a huge disapointment.

[@tomsawyer2112]

As far as I know, F1 2019 was not VR, while F1 2020 is VR. Any racing game on flat screens, even 3 screens is far away from realism, when compared to VR.

[@MrDominic152]

The improved handling and My Team Feature are enough to warrant buying the new game :)

[@MBF120]

The one thing i hate about f1 2020, is the fact that you cant downshift as quick as you want. It's so annoying to have your car not downshift when you want it to. I feel like it happens every other lap
