Goated, rock & stone

Arguably the best handling out of any F1 game from codemasters, especially compared to F1 22 and the newly released F1 24. With EA only keeping the last three games up before delisting them definitely grab this one, preferably at discount, but honestly it's one of the few worth full price with how up and down these yearly releases can be.

Bottom line, get it before it's gone

Wonderful game, Arrowhead has been excellent with communications on Discord and social media but one of the best parts of the game was the community's presence in shaping it and Sony has killed months of growth in one day.

Edit: Major Order Completed, Sony has been pushed back!

Great game

The game is finally a product I would recommend, especially after the 2.0 update! I think CDPR learned from their mistakes and where most game devs would move on after releasing unoptimized garbage, CDPR has shown that they truly care for their community and supporters by dedicating their resources to bring the game back to it's original vision. Hopefully they have learned a valuable lesson so we see a smoother release for the eventual Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2.

The gameplay is amazing such an improvement over PDtH and PD2 (especially with stealth to loud transition)... but the servers and matchmaking is a joke. Also where PD2 fostered community with randoms, in this game when a mission ends the prompt sends you back to the home screen, so no going into the next mission with the crew you've made.

The lobby menus and prompts (such as "Hold G to put on mask" or "Hold E to interact") is UI straight out of a mobile game. Bring back the "ASSAULT INCOMING" in yellow at the top the screen and a proper inventory system that. I know it seems minor but small changes to the UI and menus will make the game feel so much more polished, cause rn it's super clunky.

For the positives, gameplay and Gustavo's music absolutely lives up to the hype and the 8 missions are all great and unique. Once Starbreeze adjusts the menus and lobby system to foster community and gives a facelift to the UI, then the game and the players will be ready for the next DLC content but these issues need to be addressed.

*oh I forgot to mention but in line with fostering community there is no chat in the post game lobbies, that needs to be added for a proper and engaging community

GOATED

Rest in peace Kevin Conroy, an absolute GOAT of the industry <3

Get the entire collection if you can but if you gotta pick one then this game is the best in the series imo

I enjoy about 90% of the game, but the 10% that I don't REALLY bogs the game down. Hoping 343 listens to the community on how to handle color customization, monetization of the multiplayer, xp progression, weekly challenges, etc. as well as all of the bugs they need to squash.

This game slaps.
