848 bug report topics in 7 weeks

Is it not a little bit concerning that there are 848 (and counting) bug report topics on here in just 8 weeks since launch??
That’s over 100 reported problems a week!!

You have to factor in as well that the number of members on here make up a tiny percentage of the games player base, so how many more people are experiencing issues…?

This isn’t a cheap game. Infact, it’s up there as one of the most expensive launch games of all time at £89.99 for a Champions Edition that gave you NOTHING of any value for your extra money and pre-order….

3 days early access? To what, a beta test and build that’s now completely different after 7 patches?

18,000 pitcoin? There’s nothing but 30 pairs of Puma shoes to spend it on!! Where are the helmets and liveries?

eSports liveries!! ….. oh it’s only for Time Trial…. In last year’s game…. that you just uninstalled to make room for the new £89.99 shambles!

Getting a little tired of reporting issues to constantly be told “thanks for you feedback, we’ve passed it on to the dev team”…..

This dev team need to do better!! It’s not good enough and not value for money. I’ve been pre-ordering every year since F1 2010, but I’m appalled by the state of F1 24 and the lack of care and quality testing.
Some of the bugs have been laughable. Like not being able to select wet tyres at the start of wet races? How does that slip through the testers? Did they not play a single wet race before putting this game out and charging an extortionate price??
Sales are dropping in the UK by around 47% year on year, and sadly I won’t be investing any more or my money into the series if this is what they think is acceptable….

I understand your frustration with the game and trust me its no fun for anyone.
However, there have been a lot of bug reports, some of them are from different people with the same issue that would get grouped together, so i believe the number of unique bugs is much lower.

Another issue that i have seen which does delay the process is bug reports with insufficient information to allow the team to thoroughly investigate.
That is no way meant to say that people shouldn’t be reporting bugs, but just saying “this bug happens” and nothing else means devs have to spend more time trying to replicate the issue thus allowing other bugs to go unfixed

That's just counting the ones who were allowed to file a report.
The latest patch has disabled controller vibration for me and I wasn't able to submit one. So you could probably bump that number up a bit.

@GeneralemergencyWhen you say you can’t is that due to an issue with the form?

Players need to put more pressure on these developers and companies to do better.
Why has it become acceptable to expect people to pay upwards of £89.99 for an unfinished and untested game that requires patch after patch for months after release in the hope that things improve?
The player’s experience is awful. There have never been more complaints and dissatisfaction on here and across social media.
There was NO reward for pre-ordering and anyone who paid full price, having put their trust and faith in EA/Codemasters, has been completely ripped off with the game now 40% off after 8 weeks.
Lesson learned there! Never pre-order again and wait until they fix it months later to buy pre-owned at half the price.
This place is full of complaints and rightly so, and nobody should silence that. We paid money for this thing and it’s not good enough!

@SDGMatt No one has mentioned anything about silencing anyone. The deva and the CM’s take on board every last possible opinion good and good and work really hard on making the games.

Granted its not perfect but no game is perfect and without bugs

@Cpayne32 Seemingly all games have bugs these days, but the amount in this game is completely unacceptable for the £89.99 price!
This isn’t a cheap game and it’s almost double price for an average release.
We shouldn’t just accept this poor quality because “no game is perfect and without bugs”.

I understand that it’s not a sim, and that games these days push the boundaries of what these consoles can do… But a lot of complaints are down to simple design choices and decisions to remove and restrict customisation content! It’s baffling!
Someone in that studio made the decision to remove all the helmets and liveries from F1 23… Why??
If they really do take on board our feedback, why after 2 months have they not filled the ‘store’ with any Race Wear or liveries? That’s a simple thing to do right? It’s not even ‘new’ designs that we are asking for, we just want the old ones back if it means more variety than the 3 awful, lacklustre and effortless designs on rotation in F1 24!
The fact that they’ve added to the Puma shoes in 1.7 rather than give us more helmets just proves that nobody is listening!
Season 2 launches tomorrow. I’m confident in predicting that we get 2 helmets at most locked behind the VIP tier that you’ll have to grind the game to unlock.
Why is there a complete lack of content? Why is the store empty? Why make the ones they do add to podium pass so difficult to get?
Why give us 18,000 pitcoin and give us nothing to spend it on? And why create a storefront in the menu to purchase MORE pitcoin when nobody is spending the 18,000 they have?

I fill out the form
I hit the submit button, it's greyed out and just holds on that.
I tried three times, last time I waited an hour, same issue.
It's not warning me able any missing information.

Hey @SDGMatt

Lately, you have been writing almost the same message every day. While we truly appreciate passionate players and their feedback, repeating a message one time after another can be considered spam.

I understand you might be frustrated with the game, but flooding the boards risks making it difficult for a problem to get tracked and for replies to be delivered when and if we have news to share. As I previously mentioned, we take every piece of feedback/bug report seriously and we escalate them to the game team.

Please check our Rules & Guidelines in case of doubt.
