F1 2015 – First Patch released

Shortly after the release of the F1 2015 title, Codemasters deployed a first patch to resolve some urgent issues with the PC version of the game.

After a rather rocky launch, Codemasters where rapidly aware of players encountering some issues with the PC build, and have pushed a new build to the Steam platform to correct the known bugs and problems associated with the initial launch.

The last few years, we have become accustomed to games being released with bugs and issues that require further updates and fixes rather than finished and polished products. Some of this may be due to the ever increasing complexity of modern game and simulation software.
