Is F1 2024 dead already?
Am I right to assume EA will not be addressing issues we have all reported with the game anymore? Now all focus is on 2025? The more I think about it, the more I realize it is the worst I have see...

We are still here and we haven't given up on the game. Lately, there has been a decrease in communication due to the holidays, but we are still monitoring the forums and I am still reporting everything to the game team to investigate
I can assure you 100% that people are still working on the game.

That's good to hear, but the question is are the team working on some of the essential issues that still ruin the game for many players?
I am still in disbelief that the controller handing hasn't been significantly improved since it was completely broken in a patch that was supposed to improve it? The amount of complaints from controller players after that patch was eye opening. Still the same!
Ferrari engine sound regardless of the statement put out that it matches real world audio is absolutely atrocious, just look at the amount of negative feedback regarding the sound.
DRS trains are still an issue, as is the aggressive AI that have extremely poor spatial awareness and just seem hell bent in trying to ram you off track.
I'll bet now that all that will happen regarding more things for F124, will be just focused on this live season rubbish that absolutely no one is interested in whatsoever.
I'm so bitterly disappointed with F124, it has been by far the worst release I can think of. Stripped back to the bare bones and a gargantuan bug fest with very little enjoyment.
The game needs a lot of work and hope some lessons have been learned for F125!
- @EA_Groguet We keep getting told that things are being fed back to the dev team, but we never hear a follow up. We are not seeing enough evidence that issues are being resolved. It is beyond frustrating and we have had this conversation before...
I've stopped reporting bugs on here because they simply take up too much of my time for posts that are ignored, never replied to and simply drift down the page and lost. Why are the devs not on here engaging with us when we post a bug report? Why are they not seeking as much information as possible about the issue? Is it any wonder why 7 months and 16 patches after launch we are STILL having league races destroyed on the final lap of a race because the leader has been taken out by an invisible wall that was in the game on Day 1? That is unacceptable! Not a single member of EA's team has ANY right to be annoyed at the player frustration on here!

Why can we not get a member of the dev team on here to answer questions and communicate feedback directly to us? It really isn't too much to ask...
It's a Wizard of Oz vibe with these guys. Hidden behind a curtain with some middle men 'community managers' taking so much of the flack and abuse.@SDGMatt when it come to bug reports being passed onto the devs. I know for fact @EA_Groguet does. He also continuely reports to them any bugs that multiple people post. I know this because when I was champion he was kind enough to always keep me in the loop and answer or chase up anything I asked him on our behalf. Within what he was allowed. @EA_Groguet Is honestly a stand up guy and imho the best CM EA have. Especially when working for us. However... unfortunately devs not appearing here isn't up to him. He can only do so much. I'd much rather we had the same system as we did on Codemasters own forums where Barry was ever present and who had intimate knowledge off game. But EA have different(worse) way off doing things.
As somebody who bought these games from the F1 2010 day's I can say I haven't touched the last 3 , wrong direction for me removing classics and replacing them with F1 life , world, super cars just zero pull for me to buy . Regarding this year even though it's currently on sale for £20 I still won't buy because I see no improvement to ai if anything it's actually regressed as seems just massive drs train's everywhere and ai on rails, zero fun or realism. If you trying to do classic scenarios etc you should take a blueprint if how moto gp 22 did it a dedicated mode it was very well done. Regarding ai it's been the same for years, absolute rails in qualifying never a spin , accident, red flag it's just racing bots. Also comparing it again to Moto GP which has all junior categories, riders all in the career, and live race stewards etc it's just more alive and exciting racing. And people complaining about lack of helmets etc well over 40 and a helmet editor are available there with zero mtx ..... This game just needs to change direction and vastly improve the ai and on track as it's stale and been the same if not worse now for years.
@FionnlaghM There have been several threads where this has been discussed and you have been involved, notably the following...

So, yes, plenty of people have tried to explain this to you, you're just choosing to ignore our answers because you don't like them.
