F1 2015 Co-op, will it return?

Recommended Posts

Co-op, was one of the main reasons to buy the game, with many YouTubers collaborating with each other with this excellent game mode. For me, it was the main reason to buy the game, it was more authentic to race with a friend as a team-mate and have a two way relationship rather than a faceless AI in single player (which I promptly ditched due to co-op :)  ). I understand that the early release date combined with the new licencing probably took away time from the gamemodes (modelling faces, cars, recording commentary, grid sequences all take time!). Just like the game will be patched to update the cars and stuff, will Co-op be added into multiplayer? It's a long shot that anyone from Codies will see/answer this, but I can only hope!

The community obviously wants this Codies!

I agree also it was the main reason i used to play the previous ones. I think overall this years game looks great and the cars feel pretty good but a lack of co-op or even MP with AI is poor.

You can get the online lobbies with a friend to save a points tally, but I would like an actual co-op career back. Though in the meantime, there are more important issues to be rectified.

I''ve been a Team member for Pcars since the builds made it into the 500's, PCARS is a great game don't get me wrong, but for league racing, the reason for me to buy the F1 Games is for the co-op, me and a mate having some fun. CM can say all they want about a new game engine and new handling and new netcode and the satan spawned Hopper Lobbies, but they still have the code lying around for co-op, it's not like they are having to make a new game mode.

Ty for the info about saving points and adding AI, might be able to co-op in some shape or form. I agree with important issues, netcode and FFB as well as the seemingly infinite game crashes that are happening. Like I said, I understand how CM would have time taken out and not been able to implement it in the current state (take into account that CM are currently a tiny studio) I'm just wondering if they understood what a great game mode they removed from multiplayer as well as the hopper lobby gift from hell ;)

@thecraicbear how do you get it to save the points? And any info on AI in MP?
@Gibbsy1000 I'm not too sure myself, because I wasn't hosting at the time; my friend told me it was a feature whilst he was setting up our lobby. 

In regards to the AI, they're good, but online they ghost a lot, as if collisions were set to 'off'. I believe it's a desync issue.

@thecraicbear ah I see I have not been able to find that option or the option to add AI to my custom MP session yet. If you find out any info on how to do either of those i would love to know how.

adding AI is easy, jst click on the grid list and choose "fill with AI" or "add AI" you can set different difficulties for AI as well (another good feature) - however, I can't confirm this save option will actually save where you are after racing, I've not tried it yet - it looks like it just saves the options though.

@SaintEvil ah cool thanks for the info, is that on the custom race or single do you know?
Uhm, online custom season, the one where you can add any number of tracks up to a full season.

@SaintEvil Not sure where I am going wrong with this but i am not seeing an option to add AI to the custom season in F1 i have checked every menu when setting the lobby up and do not see it, when adding tracks there is no option for AI either. Perhaps the feature is not in the PS4 version?
If you have a screenshot i would be interested to see where you are seeing the option.

Hover over an empty driver slot and choose to fill with AI (should say at the bottom of the screen what button it is) then choose their proficiency.
