Why only 3 helmets?
The helmet designs are bad enough and now we only have 3 to choose from? What on earth is going on here?
Please add more in future patches. Quite simply not good enough and unacceptable!
I hate to say the changes will only come when we stop playing and buying the game. EA will abandon the genre or F1 will give the rights to someone else and it starts over with a new Codies running the show.
Season 3 is probably their last chance at giving customization before everyone walks away.
Series 3 will introduce 2 new helmets, 2 new car liveries, 2 gloves and 2 suits... and they'll cost 7,500 pitcoin each... Watch it happen!
I primarily play single player and paying real money for a helmet for my single player career mode is forking ridiculous.
There used to be more than ONE free helmet. Most of the customization items in podium pass are behind the "vip" paywall. It's absolutely pathetic.
Also it's 2024 there needs to be a helmet/livery design tool or something. There needs to be a community creations thing like with 2K games or Forza Horizon.
Seriously, you can't even change the colour of the NUMBERS on "custom" cars.
I hope they have learned their lesson going forward for F125 and beyond. Without doubt by now we should have a helmet editor, even if it's a basic one. This for me is an absolute minimum requirement of any good F1 game.
But even without that, at least keep the same options in the store. I'm absolutely flabbergasted in what they did in F124 regarding helmets. It's absolutely unacceptable.
EA, if you happen to read this, the resources used to create F1 world would be much better used to create a helmet editor and better customisation options.
It must be so easy to design, program and implement it into the interface of the game.
Additionally the amount of people that have been asking for this over the years, I've lost count.
It's annoying because I have used the same helmet design and colours for 3 years now. I made that my signature helmet in league racing. It was recognisable to me when watching the highlights back.... But it was removed for F1 24.... Why??
At least in F1 23 it was in the "Store" so i could buy it on Day 1....
This topic has some real momentum and it's clear that this is one of the biggest frustrations besides the poor handling. Yet there is no response from EA/CM/Devs?? Silence!!
I guess we’ll see Monday if they listened. They claim new store items.
With the current podium pass I snagged a nice butterfly to use as the logo for My Team.
Podium pass will be the usual, add a helmet at level 1, but lock it behind the VIP paywall. And then add a second helmet at Level 47 that only the unemployed and those that grind the game all day every day will ever unlock 😂
I think season 3 proves EA and Code Masters don’t give an F1 about their customers. Some pig or portable radio badge, a half decent helmet and nothing else for customization in My Team.
VERY DISAPPOINTING
This to me now completely sums up EA. They had a golden opportunity to make amends regarding more helmet choices. And this is what they have given us.
They are clearly more focused on creating more pointless drivel like fan zone rather than focusing on what everyone has been asking for.
Fan zone! Who on earth actually sits there and thinks this will be a popular feature, when there are still massive issues that are affecting the game. It bedraggles me to actually try and understand the purpose of it?
Absolute joke!

Eerily prescient. Podium pass has exactly that but mostly behind the VIP glass.
The store got 2 helmets- not bad, gloves, a livery that is the typical fare but not quite your price point.
Given the badges in podium pass and the store, I am guessing they’ve checked out.
That’s so disappointing, and predictable….
Thats how you know that not a single Dev has bothered to come on here or read feedback on the socials.
If they did, we’d have a lot more customisable items…
I don’t get it… F1 23’s store was FULL of items and I Bought almost all the helmets. I bought more pit coin to do so…. You’d think that they would want our money?
Has anyone else still got all their pit coin from launch?
Who has spent it on 7,500 pit coin helmets?
Who’s wasted it on Puma shoes and sunglasses? 😂
I wish you could run a poll on here
I bought the livery with the laurel leaves, and have been waiting for something worth spending the rest on.
Just loaded up the game to have a look at the new helmets.
really dull designs. Looks like someone threw them together on MS Paint 5 minutes before the deadline for the Patch. No thanks! 👎
It's the exact same unlock levels in all 3 seasons so far and they clearly know exactly what they are doing, and it's insulting to players...
Unlock a Helmet at level 1, but it's behind the VIP Tier paywall, so hand over 9,000 pitcoin for it
Then for your 9,000 pitcoin you get 47 levels of useless F1 World Parts and silly badge/emblem parts....
And for the unemployed and people who have been grinding the game all day every day for a month, you might reach the FREE helmet at Level 47, only to find that it's a pretty boring design and you wasted your time and money....
EA....
GIVE US THE F1 23 RACE WEAR CONTENT IN THE F1 24 STORE!
You've copy and pasted everything else, so why not give us those items again??
They already exist.... Just add them!!
You'll silence the complainers. Give people some content to spend their pitcoin on... You might even get a few buying MORE Pitcoin.... I know I'd buy them!
Big Brain Money Making Microtransaction Idea right there!!
As someone who liked changing the My Team livery at the start of most seasons, I’d buy some. But I won’t spend it on liveries I think are unrealistic (goldfish ayone?).
