Community ManagerIt's insane really, F1M 24 releases a huge update packed full of features, customisation and fixes that had been requested by the community.. and we get a fix to a badge. Still missing several fixes that have been talked about for months and no new features that have been requested for years and clearly not been listened to at all.
The difference is staggering. It doesn't exactly inspire any confidence or desire to get the next one where it'll all be the same again. Player numbers have dropped massively and continuing to fall every year, you need to start actually giving the customer what we want instead of excuses and stuff we haven't asked for. Though I'm sure that will just fall on deaf ears.
100% on the F1 Manager 2024 point. The updates and new features that Frontier have put out over the last few weeks have blown F1 24’s career mode out of the water, and that’s a studio that has pulled the plug on a 2025 game!
To be honest, an annual release for that game didn’t make a lot of sense. The purpose of a management game is to play into future seasons and update your team/car. Dropping a season update for 2025 makes far more sense and then maybe focus on a 2026 game with the new regulations.
With F1 25 though, you are actually racing! There needs to be actual improvements to the physics and handling model and refinements to the racing experience to justify players pre-ordering with another £89.99!
EA/CM need to stop focussing on the main menu and silly sunglasses and puma shoes for your driver avatar, and start focussing on the F1 ON-TRACK RACING EXPERIENCE!
We want an authentic Grand Prix race! Get us closer to what the drivers experience in the build up to lights out. Give us better and more authentic setups and handling models. A better interaction with a race engineer and garage crew. Strategy and Tyre options closer to what team teams have to go through. An improved weather radar and dynamic track conditions!!
Flat spots on tyres and realistic damage.
You have a decent telemetry feature in Racenet that updates in real time!!! WHY IS THIS STUCK ON AN APP AND NOT IN THE GAME ITSELF? Put it in Time Trial or the Practice/Qualy garage screen! This is what real drivers use during sessions! Show us where we can improve on our runs/laps! Compare to our team mate in career mode. Not just our friends list in Time Trial…
Let’s go back to developing an F1 game and not a catwalk for the latest digital puma attire.
Let’s improve servers and give more customisation options for leagues setting up their lobbies. The ability to apply grid penalties between qualy and race would be nice!
Full race replays for console! Free camera whilst the replay is in motion would be nice for league stewarding!!
Exporting race results in the last update was a MUCH welcome new feature. Let’s get this available to console players running leagues too!
Ability to edit the performance level of teams would be nice, some leagues like to handicap and run realistic performance!
F3?? Why not add a NEW category so players can progress in career mode from a young rookie and work their way Bortaleto style from F3 to F2 and finally make their debut in F1!! Imagine the longevity of Career mode there! Also. 30 new young drivers for the neglected My Team mode!
I’ve played this series since F1 2010, but F1 24 absolutely destroyed all enthusiasm I have for the game. Let’s get back on track! Literally!
Unfortunately they will never do any of this all we have to do is watch them continue on this failed path with these useless updates without even bothering to listen to the community
