And just as fifa and NHL you can nowadays pay for stuff in game via microtransactions. It’s funny because I’ve not even touched the Pitcoins I got when I bought the Champions Edition. I just wanna race with my friend. F1 World, F1 Life or whatever they call it….I don’t bother with stuff like that.

Unpopular opinion but for the way I play 80% of the game is OK. But I skipped 23 and am not signing up for 25 anytime soon.
Customization is the problem for me. Liveries, helmets, badges- everything that made my team and car unique was eliminated.
Add to that the simple stuff that F1 Holdings would be OK with like custom weather for careers and changing AI when restarting a session, changing weather when restarting a session- all ignored for years.
Then there are the little things, pit box order changes each season. When a driver retires and an F2 driver is promoted a fictional driver should be added to the pool.
The mini games in the race should have an option to disable (except maybe the move over for your teammate). The specialists don’t grab me either. The cut scene going into my house was cool the first time, now it wastes my time.
My Team is stale and needs a revamp, not to mention cost cap. And way more customization, like team polos, pit crew garb etc.
The bigger stuff might require F1’s approval like a more customizeable calendar, classic tracks from previous editions (ai will need training).
There’s a lot left on the table here.
Is part of the problem the 2 development teams? So each one works on a 2 year old edition instead of the latest iteration?
Whatever it is, the push to microtransaction and life style clothing (and strangers in my lobby) shows they don’t know that the F1 crowd is not the same as the FC/Madden crowd.

The mention of two teams working on the F1 titles is interesting and something I'm aware of. There is a common trend here regarding that.
If it's a two year cycle, then the team who made F121 and F123, made great games that's stratasphericly better than F122 and F124.
Maybe the team responsible for F121 and F123 should make all the F1 games. Because F122 and especially this year's absolute long suffering debacle, F124 is awful!
Additionally, if it is those at the top of the hierarchical tree at EA who are responsible for completely decimating the store and basic customisation options, then they need to have a rethink, because it has massively backfired, which I'm delighted with!
The amount of complaints and people saying they won't buy F125 are huge and this is the result you get for expecting people to spend £90 of their hard earned money on a game with almost zero customisation. Not to mention the rest of it which is terrible in its current state.
