F1™ 2017 – Season Update Now Available
Codemasters just announced today that F1™ 2017, the official videogame of the 2017 FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP™, has got an update and will include new features and improvements.
The newest 1.9 patch for F1™ 2017, available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC, will include the much requested updated car liveries. Some brand new screenshots also got released, showing off the car liveries in all their beauty and glory.
For the first time for consoles players will be given the ability to create, save and share incredible action shots from within the game, thanks to the much heralded Photo Mode. But that’s not the only new feature in this update, from the number of enhanced Esports-related features, the most notable is a brand new spectator mode, adding a “TV-style” broadcast element on the left hand side of the screen. You can now showcase the current running order as well as various other statistics, such as:
- Gap to the race leader
- Gap to the car ahead or behind
- Positions lost or gained
- Fastest lap times
- Current tyre compound
- In the pits
- Number of pit stops
The spectator gets to control what information is shown. Live timing for the car you are watching, fastest laps and sector specific yellow flags are all available to watch. And if that’s not to your liking and you’d rather not see any of this information, you can just as easily turn them off as you please.
New Features Summary:
- New Spectator UI has been added to game.
- LAN Mode has been added to PlayStation4 and PC versions.
- New Grid editor available in custom multiplayer modes.
- Photo Mode is now available on PlayStation4 and Xbox One.
- Sports Update – updated car and driver liveries.
