F1 24 Quality of Life improvements

Hi guys, 

now, I am well aware that F1 25 is already here, and I'm currently having fun with it in Driver career with Lewis Hamilton, but I want to put the spotlight on F1 24 for one last time. 

Now, I don't know if EA SPORTS is familiar with the term "Quality of Life improvements", but what this means is updating the game after the game is technically dead, with a couple bugfixes that were possibly overlooked back in the day. 

What I would do as Quality of Life improvement is the following:

  1. Fix the DRS sign in Monza. Ever since the game came out, the DRS sign on the start/finish straight in Monza is misplaced, placed at an earlier spot than the actual DRS zone. For someone like me who plays cockpit cam without the OSD, I can't tell where the frick the DRS zone is, and that costs me a lot of time in quali and the race. 
  2. Fix the ERS management program in Practice. When I played Practice in Miami, I was not able to get the purple energy delta despite using zero energy with zero engine braking. Like, what the heck? The delta should skyrocket into heaven and not zigzag across the heat map. If anything, the green delta should always be 50% remaining ERS, with 100% being the maximum score, and maybe 80% for purple. 
  3. Add former F2 champions to the icon roster. I want to give drivers like Felipe Drugovich and Nyck de Vries a shot in F1. Especially Felipe deserves a drive, and Nyck de Vries shouldn't have been sacked in 2023. Maybe Mick Schumacher would do a decent job in your team as well. 
  4. Add career options like driver lineup and race calendar customization. Frontier has done so with F1 Manager, and it makes the start of a new career always so cool. You can say let Hamilton start at McLaren, put Norris in a Ferrari, drop Verstappen to Sauber, or even give Hulkenberg a drive with Mercedes. And as for the race calendar, you can say start in Brazil, end in Suzuka, play Bahrain and Jeddah close to the summer, endless possibilities... 

F1 24 was an amazing game, but it's not perfect like F1 2020 was. But with these things, if they make it into the game, I might actually change my mind. And also, it would be awesome to have for F1 25 if it works like it should. 

Let's hope for the best. 

Nico

  • I forgot to mention, there's another crucial bug that's been pestering me since launch. 

    If you play My Team and choose your team colors, then restart the game and go back to My Team, the primary team color always changes to black. It's not a big problem, but I want to keep my pink when I restart the game and jump back into My Team. It's a really weird glitch, and just like the misplaced DRS sign, it's been there since launch.
