F1 2011 secrets revealed on Twitter

August 10, 2011 By TomBowker Leave a Comment

Last updated on January 9th, 2021 at 04:53 pm

Detailed information about inclusions, tweaks and updates for the forthcoming F1 2011 have been few and far between, but Steve Hood, Chief Game Designer for F1 2010/11, has revealed many snippets of information via his Twitter account (@T4RG4) not mentioned in official press releases.

Hood is preparing for the first public screening of the game at Gamescom 2011 in Cologne, and has revealed that co-op championships will only be available online rather than via split-screen, the career mode will be five seasons rather than seven.

Perhaps most interestingly, it seems using driving aids whilst racing online will now carry weight penalties – meaning more skilful drivers will no longer be disadvantaged compared to those using ABS and traction control.

Hood also reveals his team would like to include additional downloadable content and that he would like to include helmet designs of classic drivers in the game.

Here is a select sample of Steve Hood’s most revealing tweets:

“Co-Op is a single season” … “Co-op Championship is Online only, not in Split-screen (although you can run a 1-19 races if you wish)”

“And the Stats have shown few people went all the way through 7 seasons so I’ll put up with it as long as it’s 5 decent seasons in Career.”

“Truth in DLC rumours? Hmm… well. We’ve talked about it and talked about it. We do want to do it. It’d be so cool!”

“TC and ABS carry weight penalties (for experienced drivers and the penalty goes up with rank).” … “Assists = extra weight issue. it’s not to penalise players using assists but demotivate/equal good players using assists to be even faster.”

“…we’ve gone way past the point of being able to add Ricciardo to HRT”

“No flag helmets this year. Because I get so many requests to add more nations! So it’s original designs in’11 :)” … “I’d love to include classic driver helmets but it’s a license minefield. Will still try!”
