graphics
849 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe graphics in the game have received mixed reviews, with many players praising the stunning visuals and realistic representations of cars and tracks, which enhance the immersive experience. However, some users have pointed out issues such as graphical glitches, poor crash animations, and a lack of depth in gameplay, suggesting that the focus on graphics may have come at the expense of more substantial management features. Overall, while the graphics are a standout aspect, they are not without their flaws, and some players feel that the game lacks the depth and complexity expected from a management simulation.
“The game's visuals are a standout feature.”
“The graphics are stunning, I will give them that but the radio messages are very redundant and should be filled with a lot more real life messages to make it more interactive per situation type as they are available at every race weekend and we should have a huge pool of messages building from every race weekend.”
“With its sleek graphics, realistic car and track designs, and intuitive gameplay, the game immerses players in the thrilling world of Formula 1.”
“The graphics are absolutely terrible, and any time a car goes off track or crashes, it's miraculously returned to track an instant later instead of remaining where it was.”
“You expect it to be a great game, from a great developer, yet the cars look like the ones from Roblox (even on the higher graphics), and the physics work like in cartoons.”
“The graphics are early PS3... truthfully.”

Tense and involving, if just slightly lacking smarts and spectacle. A firm foundation to build a series on.
