Some Questions to Carreer mode

Hey Racers,

I finally bought F1 24 and am about to start coop carreer with my buddy. I took a look at the new carreer system and I am quiet happy about the depth codemasters took into it.

Our facts and aims:

- Firstly, we want a challeging realistic carreer. 

- Our difficulty level is always set in that way, that our pace is realistic to the team performance. No winning chance with an underdog team for example.

- We are expierenced F1 Gamers. 

- Overall R&D rate is set on low (for more realistic development of the cars).

Because Career mode is a long time project for us, I like to have some questions answered:

1. Real Driver or custom driver?

- I noticed that there is a big difference in terms of rating, goals and acclaim between an icon like Schumacher and a new custom driver. If we start both with custom drivers, the influence on team development is 50/50, right? (if we start in the same team)

- The boosts on development I have, if I choose Schumacher, seem to be quiet strong. Is it possible, that 2 custom new driver in ferrari have less chance to develop the team to the top, then we would choose two icons with good ratings and influence? 

- It is still not possible to set a real Name for a custom driver in Coop career right? I saw in races the real name of the icon is shown. But it seems for custom driver the stupid ugly psn-name is shown.

2. What do you recommend for a challeging career?

- If you choose a new custom driver, is the game designed to start with a lower team and to step up after a season or is it also possible to choose a top team from the beginning and to aim the constructor title? Or is a higher driver rating recommended for staying in a top team?

- Is depth and content missing if we already start with two top drivers like the icons? I guess the devolepment of the driver rating and their boosts etc. are already full envolved. Maybe this Driver devolepment and achieving new bonuses etc. is missing?

  • @DonBlanko Hi Don, im hoping you will enjoy your experience with the game.

    With regards to influence this will start as 50/50 if you are in the same team. In terms of developing teams, I don’t think you will have an issue with that as the upgrades with the influence are secret to that driver so its good to have some inter team competition 😉

    As for the real name, yes while you can create your driver with a custom name it will display your PSN username.

    You can start from any team you choose to begin with and even if you choose top drivers you can still improve their stats

    @Cpayne32 @Thank you ! 🙂

    Another question about the contract system:

    Is the RTG the only factor for the contract? I mean, what if I achieve my level from 65 to 69 in the end of the season, but failure to be in the top 6 with red Bull. In f1 22 it was possible to become fired. And that pressure was great!

    What if I set my goal to stay at 65? Wouldn't this goal way to easy to stay in contract? I miss an overall team goal.

    And is it more difficult to get from RTG 65 to 69 in a Ferrari than in a Haas for example?

    Thank you!!

    I believe you can get fired but getting to 69 OVR with a new custom driver is very easy

    @Cpayne32yes exactly! So why should I set a higher target for my RTG goal in coop mode, when a lower one seems to be easy and enough for staying a in contract for a top team?
    Do he teams have own goals?
