I haven’t received the F1 TV Pro free month code from my Iconic Edition preorder
Hello, I preordered the F1 25 Iconic Edition via the Microsoft store a few weeks ago. Now that the game is out, I was expecting to get an email with instructions on redeeming the free month of F1 TV Pro, however I have not received that. Also, everything online keeps saying it’ll appear in the Offers section of my EA account (which is linked to my Xbox account where I made the preorder) but that section is still empty. I have played the game a few times now and I have the Iconic Edition in-game rewards like the Lewis Hamilton cosmetics, but still no way to access that free month of F1 TV Pro. I tried contacting Microsoft support since I preordered the game through them, but they just directed me to EA support. However, I cannot find a way to email or chat with EA support. Despite their website saying there is a button you can click to start a chat on their How To Contact Support page, that button does not exist as far as I can tell. Any help from EA/Codemasters would be greatly appreciated. I’m enjoying the game so far but it is frustrating that one of the preorder bonuses has not been delivered yet. Thanks!Solvedhuge_toblerone4 hours agoRising Novice350Views0likes7CommentsF1® 25 - v1.06 - Vehicle/AI Changes Feedback
Hey everyone, Following the release of the v1.06 patch (the patch notes can be found by tapping here) we'd appreciate your feedback on the changes that have been made to racing against computer-controlled opponents (AI). Whilst all feedback and additional bug reports are appreciated on our dedicated Technical Issues & Bug Reports page, please keep replies to this post relevant to the questions posed below. Since the patch, have you noticed that have been able to maintain a similar top speed to AI competitors? Since the patch, have you noticed you are more competitive against AI competitors in wet conditions? If using automatic gears, are you happy with the changes made to upshifting in wet conditions since the patch? Do you have any other feedback on the changes that have been made when racing against the AI compared to previously? As a reminder, additional improvements to the experience racing against the AI are being considered. Thanks again for your feedback and support with F1® 25. - James / CM_TGK Community and Creator Manager @ EA SPORTS / CodemastersSolvedCM_TGK7 hours agoCodemasters Team5.6KViews11likes113CommentsAI very slow in free practice
The AI is very slow in free practice. Playing on the same difficulty as qualifying, I noticed that they set very high times in free practice; the last-place driver is almost 4 seconds behind the leader, while I'm the fastest, more than 0.5 seconds behind second place. And in qualifying, I'm between eighth and tenth. My teammate is 1.5 seconds slower than me in free practice, and we're almost tied in qualifying. I believe that only the teams' performance update can fix this. This game is brokengladystonff937 hours agoNew Adventurer9Views0likes0Comments2 player Career mode Unplayable!
We are extremely disappointed and frustrated with the current state of the game, particularly Career Mode. After spending $75, we expected a functional and engaging experience—but two months post-release, things have only gotten worse. Major Issues Encountered: Unplayable Two-Player Career Mode Since the latest update, we are completely unable to load into two-player Career Mode. The driver stats screen becomes stuck with no way to proceed. This bug makes the entire mode unplayable and is unacceptable given the time since release. AI Performance Unrealism In the second season, the AI receives massive, unrealistic upgrades. This completely breaks immersion and ruins competitive balance. The jump in vehicle performance makes it feel like we are racing against a different class of cars. Starting Grid Bug On several occasions, despite qualifying P1 and P2, the game randomly places us at the back of the grid when the race starts. This completely undermines the time and effort we put into qualifying and ruins the race experience. Overall Experience: This has been incredibly disheartening. We waited months for fixes, but with every new update, new issues seem to arise while major problems persist. It feels like player feedback is not being taken seriously, and Career Mode—the heart of the game for many of us—is broken. We urge you to: Prioritize a fix for the two-player Career Mode loading issue. Rebalance AI performance progression between seasons. Investigate and fix the qualifying-to-grid bug immediately.portside87 hours agoNewcomer15Views0likes1CommentMore water spray in the rain
I think EA should definitely increase the amount of spray in rain a lot more!It will be so much more challenging and realistic and obviously a lot of player love that.If EA isn't doing it just because the Esports driver or some players doesn't like it,then i think they should just give us an option in the setting for the amount of spray,that will be good for both sides. EA PLEASE🙏Lemontea052010 hours agoRising Novice11Views0likes0CommentsDriver Ratings Update
After 12 rounds I'm sure everyone will agree with me the F1 25 ratings are totally miles off how the drivers are in real life look at the grid will you PLEASE UPDATE all drivers to match the seasons performance, it makes career mode not enjoyable the likes of yuki winning races when he at back all season!!! Fifa update there player stats constantly throughout the year and that's thousands of players not a handful of drivers come on ea it's ruining the game would be perfect in my eyes if this gets sorted ASAP.JonnyGreen201815 hours agoSeasoned Traveler440Views5likes13CommentsCost cap
Hello, Why is it that if I end a season strong, smartly managing my money, avoid reckless spending, and carry over a healthy reserve, I'm penalized for it? How does that make sense under any accounting system, real-world or simulated? If I enter the new season with, say, $85–100M in the bank, the game counts that entire amount as if it’s been spent for cost cap purposes. Which means I’ve already “used up” most of my $135M cap without spending a dollar. How is that even remotely logical? That’s not how a cost cap works in Formula 1, or in any business for that matter. In the real F1, the cost cap is based on expenditures, not cash reserves. Meaning that a team can have $500 million in the bank, and it’s completely irrelevant unless they actually spend it on regulated activities. The FIA doesn’t fine teams for having money. They fine them for how they use it. Which means EA should apply just a basic amount of accounting logic to this game. It punishes players for smart financial management. It forces you to dump cash for no reason, which isn’t intuitive or explained anywhere. And it flat-out breaks immersion when your championship-winning team is told it can’t spend what it earned without violating an artificial limit.21Views0likes0CommentsWill the fanatec SDK be implemented in f125?
Is there anyone here who would know if the new fanatec sdk for xbox to unlock button mapping and LED function is implemented? I have been waiting for so many years and fanatec is claiming it is coming soon. I would be very disappointed if for some reason EA decides to not implement.Solveddelipride3212 days agoRising Traveler2.2KViews14likes47CommentsAPX GP Livery MTC
Please bring it back, I was away for a little while but I couldn't buy it because I didn't know it was happening. As I found about it, it was way after July 11th. I love the livery and I really want it back and buy it, please EA. I beg, if you will or if you think about it, thank you.J9NM092 days agoSeasoned Newcomer25Views1like1CommentFFB on the road bump
I've posted about this several times I'm a controller user Why can't we get feedback on the road? No matter what the road is, we get no feedback, we only get a feel for traction and cornering Look at Norris' Monaco pole lap. He bounces off the huge bumps, but we ride calmly. When we're on the straights in Baku, when we're touching past the pit entry at Interlagos, when we're sprinting down the Las Vegas strip at 360kph, we get no feedback from the controller.homesvslupin2 days agoRising Veteran11Views0likes0CommentsRain Ruins the race
Hey everyone, I just have to vent about something that’s really making F1 25 frustrating for me—especially in the rain. It feels like only my car is losing massive time compared to the AI. I’m talking about 1 to 2 seconds per lap, and it’s not something that’s happening to everyone—just me! The AI cars seem completely unaffected or at least lose way less time, and it totally ruins the race. Honestly, it doesn’t make sense. I know wet conditions should be tough, but it feels like the game is punishing me specifically, while the AI just carries on like nothing’s changed. I’ve tried different setups, but nothing really helps. It’s not a general issue for all cars—just my car versus the AI. There are definitely some bugs or problems here. I’ve seen similar complaints about the AI not being affected by rain or tire wear in past games, and it’s really disappointing to see it still happening. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me? I really hope the devs take a look, because right now, wet races just aren’t any fun.toxta34cv3 days agoSeasoned Newcomer710Views12likes9CommentsShow driver name-tag in race results not just 'Player'
Anyone knows if there is a way for the race results to display the driver's name tag, instead of just 'Player'? It shows my name tag OK, but not others. This is critical to maintain a league's driver's standings. E.GSolvedGCAdventure3 days agoNew Adventurer21Views1like2Comments
