F1 World. Do you play it?

Do you play F1 World? If only you could put a poll on here… Im curious to see people’s thoughts on this mode, as it never seems popular in the comments. I do wonder what the player data says to the ...

@SDGMatt I agree with your original post. Personally, I've hardly touched F1 World, but my guess is that it is pretty popular with the younger crowd and more casual players. Those are the types of player who don't typically frequent these boards, which is why you don't often see positive feedback here regarding F1 World.

Last year I tried it out for a while. This year don’t bother. Its tedious and overcomplicated IMO, but hey I’m old so yes it may appeal to some. But don’t get any satisfaction from doing the grind for all these random bits of stuff. The grind should be simple, just one currency, spend it how you like, which would be fine if there was worthwile things to buy

F1 world is there to build up the “other stuff” that racing games need for casual play so I kind of get it but the other typical features - livery, photos, replays etc - that drive engagement are still subpar and need some love

I do mostly TT and grandprix. Career and My team would also appeal but the longstanding bugs, scripting and other issues make it hard to want to put in the effort. The fact that AI don’t use tire temps negates a big aspect of F1 and the lack of consistency of the AI level from track to track also limits desire to spend time in those part of the game

Fan zone - meh for me, why can’t I just not enter it?

For me, I exclusively play Time Trial and Grand Prix mode the most often just to practice for my league races, and they are the ONLY online races I take part in...
I've dabbled with career, but just find it repetitive. I wouldn't mind trying 2 player career mode. Although that's a mode that could be a lot of fun opening up to more drivers. It would be a fun addition to league racing to have to develop your car between races and challenge yourself against real drivers instead of AI.
I've got very little interest in open lobbies. 5 lapped "Ranked" races are a waste of time and need to be improved!! I used to love racing 25%-50% races online and having to use strategy and consistency to win rather than avoiding mayhem for 5 laps
