Codemasters has released the first significant patch, v1.05, for their recently launched racing simulation, F1 23. The update comes in response to several technical issues the player community faces since the game’s release. It brings forth a range of fixes designed to enhance the gameplay experience.
The v1.05 patch is set to be available for download across all platforms – Xbox, PlayStation, and PC – within the next few days. Here is a detailed look at what players can expect from this update. One key issue addressed in this patch is the flawed system in the Two Player Career mode, which erroneously used equal performance instead of realistic performance. This adjustment aims to provide a more realistic and competitive gaming experience for pairs embarking on their F1 career journey together.
The patch also fixes an issue in 25% short race distances where the Safety Car and Formation Lap were previously disabled. Additionally, players facing unexpected removal from Multiplayer lobbies while interacting with some system menus can expect an end to these abrupt gaming interruptions.
