Re: F1® 24 - Patch 1.10 Discussion Thread

Just to provide an update. The issue with the career mode drivers not updating for the 2024 season has been passed onto the team for investigation.

as always, the team appreciate you raising these issue and encourage you to continue raising any issues

Is it intentional that the new F2 cars included in the new patch are not available for a career start?

So why were they brought into play?

I’ll get corrected if I am wrong but I thought we always started our careers in the previous years F2 season. The new season F2 cars are there because people want them, some of us like racing F2 for F2’s sake. It’s different racing, especially the reverse grids.

Don't get me wrong, I also like the F2 cars. I was just hoping to be able to start a career mode with them and not just in GP mode.

From the conversation ive had with the Community managers this seems to be a bug and has been escalated 

Pls fix the Ferrari Sound via Hotfix. 

It just sounds like a broken Headset

sorry if i'm misunderstanding something, but is this referring to the fact that we can use the F2 cars from 2024 in career mode?

Because as I understand it, in the game F1 2024 this should mean that I can either start my career in the F1 season 2014 or F2 season 2024 or not?

I can only agree with that.

@reazer87At the moment you can only use the 2023 F2 cars in career mode but from the conversation with the CM, it seems you should now be able to use the 2024 F2 cars but the game isn’t allowing it

okay so i was right with my assumption after all 🙂. thanks for the info.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to select these at all, because as soon as you want to start a new career in F2, the cars and drivers of the 2023 season are automatically selected.

Can you say when or if this can be solved with a hotfix?

@Cpayne32 Thanks for the Information and Quick Reply

Hey everyone,

thanks for all your reports, thoughts and feedback about the recent patch.

To clear up some things, not being able to pick a 2024 F2 driver is working as intended and has always been the case with F2. The F2 season you play in career mode is the season before the game year (e.g. 23 in 24). Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense for the player driver to advance from F2 to F1 within the same year.

I've passed your feedback along to the team, though. The new Ferrari engine sound has also been escalated.

Regarding the ERS deploy limit changes called out by @Nuvolarix something indeed seems to have gone wrong and is currently being investigated. Thanks for flagging this to us!

If it is so why did you advertise on instagram that we could use 2024 F2 lineup as drivers in career mode? Also you have content creators in videos saying that it is supposed to be possible to play as say Antonelli for example in Driver/MyTeam career mode.

In previous years we couldn't use real drivers in driver career mode so I think that it's fair from comunity to expect it being allowed this year with changes to career mode.

but if I start a career in F2 in a game called F1 24, it's only logical that I can drive as a driver or at least drive the cars from the 2024 season.

As I said, why include the F2 2024 drivers and cars so late at all?

if i start an F1 career in F1 24 it is clear that i will play/drive the 2024 season. but if i start in F2 this should also happen in 2024 and not 2023 just so that i can start F1 with the lineup of the 2024 season. because maybe that is exactly what i want, to start with cars from 2024. or am i overshooting the mark?

Yeah, engine sound (all modes) - broadcast, cinematic, and also by far my most favourite - driver mode, ruined. Not just by Ferrari, I discovered the same issue by McLaren too. I´m on PS5.

Yes, I can understand your point of view and have passed that feedback along. You can still use F2 2024 drivers to compete in a Custom Championship in F1 World!

@EA_VendceraGreat that the Ferrari engine sound issues have been escalated to the team thank you.

Speaking of the Ferrari only the addition of the downshifts are good, but a little clunky. Nice to hear the turbo whistle again though as this was clearly absent in the release.

However it's the general pitch and overall engine sound isn't great and worse than before. The engine sound overall sounds muffled and so compressed.

Definitely needs fixing.

Just so we avoid any misunderstandings I am asking only about drivers not F2 2024 cars itself for driver career. Is that supposed to not be available as well? Other moderator (don't know what to call them) said it is being looked into and shouldn't be that way.

While I understand that we can play them in Gran Prix mode the career mode itself has more to it, which I am sure you will agree yourself, and also as for Instagram post this is why I am upset a bit to learn it won't be possible to play as them in career

These are from 2 weeks ago or thereabout.

In youtube video it's not stated that Antonelli should have his challenge career mode so my takeaway was he will be playable in regular career mode.

Well that is a real shame.

Still would greatly appreciate if you guys could say something about those screenshots from official ea F1 Instagram account showing Antonelli in Mercedes gear and car.

How is an 'investigation' required for changing one number? Who even decided that was a good idea to change it in the first place? Literally unbelievable

Is it possible to get a clear answer on when the Ferrari sound will be fixed? Essentially brought back to how it was before this patch?

I am really not going to make this mistake again. Will only purchase the game if and when all bugs will be fixed. I do not want to pay the money and be a beta tester for 6 months. For some reason companies think that users will swallow everything.... Ubisoft also thought that it is ok to sell mediocre products.
