Hello fellow F1 23 racers, I hope you're all ready to dive into some constructive feedback because there are some pressing issues with the online ranked points system and the lobby system that we ca...

Uhm more and better matchmaking between assist and non assist players. I got overtaken on imola over grass! He gets 5 second penalty, but since they can brake and accelerate on curbs as if they are flat, the off track punishment is non existent for them in case of losibg control, I don’t really feel it’s a FAIR competition. That’s why i don’t do ranked anymore. No point in racing with 1 hand tied behind my back. Especially since they have zero disadvantage in point count compared to the non assist players. Unranked at least you can find lobbies with High assist filter. Not that that gives certainly non assist lobbies since having everything to full, but pointless stuff like drs/ers/pit assist off makes it a lobby “worthy” of making it a high restriction lobby, which of course is a joke.
I'm also fed up with help players who do anything. And for me, the most painful thing is pit assistance. For example, I just had an extremely frustrating race at Silverstone. I start 10th, I move up to 4th place and as I enter the pits, some * with pit assist activated comes at full speed without bothering to brake when he sees me slowing down before the limit line pit speed. So he destroyed my car and threw me into the car in front of me which also had to retire... It's not possible. So I went back to the menu and there I noticed that I had lost 50 points. This is not normal and very frustrating. And the fact of returning to the menu following retirement also makes us lose points on the license and that is not normal either because we are obliged to remain spectators of the race if we do not want to lose points, and it's very long and useless. This is rubbish.
- @Moustagua Ruined the game for me.. takes tons of good racing to build points and they wipe it all away with a crash that’s not your fault
It's crazy how many post there are asking for the same changes to be made to Ranked Lobbies and they have done zero of them. Heck, they won't even respond to the post. I was on the cusp of gold this past week, I only get may 6 to 10 races in a week so if I want to rank up I can't leave a lobby when I'm taken out. So instead of playing the game I'm just sitting there for 15 to 20 minutes. Nothing has been done to improve matchmaking and its so easy to get and keep an A rating it renders it useless. And for the love of racing please stop asking me if I want to join a lobby at a lower rating...why would anyone want to race below A?
Anywho, I'm not buying 24 if Ranked isn't revamped since it's the mode I play 99% of the time. It's the best chance, which is pretty sad, at getting in a multiplayer for those of us that can't grind endlessly.
Sadly, I know this reply is a waste because they literally don't care.
Honestly, EA could care less about what we think because everyone is still gonna buy the game. EA is known for just copying and pasting the same sports games year after year because they have a monopoly on these certain sports games. They know they don't have to improve anything because there's no competition (mainly speaking for all console players). We're stuck with what we got unfortunately. EA hasn't cared about its consumers for some time now and there's 0 indication that it will change. Then when they discontinue series or sports series they balme it on the fact that noone wants to play because its not popular, but the truth is Noone wants to play because they put the same stuff out year after year with no improvement. There's a reason EA is known as one of if not the worst gaming company out there. 0 care for the games or their player base.
