Voice Controls

The Voice Controls system will allow you to directly interact with your Race Engineer. You can request detailed information about the current session or even request on the fly changes to your race strategy.
In order to use the Voice Controls system, take the following steps where the system is available:
  • Press and hold the Voice Controls button
  • A list of possible commands will appear
  • Speak one of these commands as it appears. When it is recognised, the command will be highlighted and the Race Engineer will confirm that he has understood
Certain commands will take you to a new list with more detailed commands. For example, in a race, the Box This Lap command will load a new list that will include commands to set which tyres and downforce levels to put on at your next pit stop. Remember to keep the Voice Controls button held until your Engineer has understood your commands, as this will ensure he continues to listen.

FAQs

Q. Why have I been returned to the main menu after selecting a multiplayer hopper?

A. F1 2015 searches for suitable multiplayer sessions in the background, allowing you continue to browse the menus or play other game modes while the search is being done. The HUD element in the top-left corner of the screen should indicate that a hopper search is in progress. As soon as a suitable session is found you will be notified and can choose to accept or reject this game offer. If no sessions are found within a suitable period of time, you will also be notified and given the option to retry the search.

Q. Why can’t I find any available sessions when doing a multiplayer hopper search?

A. The success of a hopper search will depend on the number of other players also trying to find similar sessions. If you are unable to find a session to join after repeated attempts then try searching in the other hoppers, or try switching to the other season.
If you are consistently failing to find a match, check your network configuration to ensure that it is suitable for multiplayer gaming. See the guide here for more information: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/browse/xbox-one/networking
If your connection is set up correctly and you are still unable to find a session, please search our forums for more information (http://forums.codemasters.com/), or contact our customer services team through the links provided below.

Q. Can I start a new season without deleting my previous progress?

A. The game will save progress for the Championship Season and Pro Season modes separately so you can play one without affecting the progress of the other. Both seasons are also treated separately, so you can start a Championship or Pro Season in the 2014 season (for example) without affecting your progress from the same mode in the 2015 season.
However, you can only have a single instance of a game mode for a given season at any one time, so you wouldn’t be able to start a second Championship Season game in the 2015 season if one was already in progress. In this case, you’d have to choose between starting a new season or continuing the old one.

Q. Do I need to be connected to the internet to play TimeTrial mode?

A. No, you can play Time Trial mode without an internet connection. All your personal best times will be saved locally and you will be able to race against your own personal best ghost car.
If you have an internet connection available, you will also be able to race against other ghost cars and post your best times to the Time Trial leaderboards.
Any of your personal best times that were recorded when you were offline will be uploaded to the leaderboards if you later connect your console to the internet.

Q. How many ghost laps can I have?

A. The game will store a single ghost lap for each track and weather combination on both the 2014 and 2015 seasons. If you beat your current personal best then the new ghost car will replace the previous one.
