Tyre wear is absolutely terrible
Is it me only who finds tyre wear absolutely horrible this year? It makes no sense the cliff the grip falls into after you hit 20% wear, you lose 1.5 or 2 seconds for no reason once you go over that ...
Forum Discussion
@hotmeils I hope there is no change at all. Get better at the game, ask for help here in the forum, both on driving techniques and setups, instead of saying something is terrible out of personal preference.
- @DavidGG53 I also asked in the setup section but no one answers. which parameters affect the rear temperatures? after 5 laps they go over 100 even if you increase the braking towards 56 57 58 etc... but a doubt arises because red white is yellow the rear temperature always seems the same
- @Nellix82 tyre pressure is number one, toe is number 2. also a softer spring influences it.
But most of all, is driving. There is an amount of management in tyre preservetion in F1 23 never really seen before in previous F1 titles. You can really nurse your tyre and be a lot more consistent through out the stint and fast at the end.- @DavidGG53 I like the behavior of the tires but even at a minimum you suffer from high temperatures. PS: full elite driving.the geometry does not affect?therefore still a quieter guide without pushing exaggerated taste?
@DavidGG53 "get better" yeah maybe don't make it so tricky, tyre wear was the only thing that was fine last year and they * it over. this game is not meant to be realistic, it's meant to be fun, and losing two seconds after five laps is not fun.
plus the "get better" phrase is the least helpful you could say, sounding pretty rude as well 😉
You can tone down tyre simulation on the settings if you want a more casual experience @hotmeils
And on his very next comment here Greco laid down the blueprint to save tyres, didn't he? You can also look up his guidelines for car setup in the other thread. Full of actionable tips that will also help you on tyre management.
Anyway, from the general reception and response this thread got I think it's fair to say that the push for a more realistic tyre model is one of F1 23 highlights for most of us? An improved model that actually got input from F1 personnel. And again, if that's not your jam you can always fiddle with the game settings for a simpler and fun ride.
What this franchise is supposed to be will vary depending on whom you ask. It's a feat in and of itself that it still can accommodate both casuals and those that look for a more realistic experience.
- @mariohomoh where are the guidelines?
- @hotmeils Stick to playing 5 lap races if you are struggling
On F1 22 playing with no assists on controller racing legend or ultimate AI using default setups i had to turn off the tyre carcus temps as they'd overheat too much vs the AI.
On F1 23 with all the same settings, using default setups and controller vs 100+ ai i have yet to see any tyre go even slightly yellow on the temp indicator. Green all the time unless i massively lock up or start doing burnouts lol
