Why only 3 helmets?

The biggest complaint has been that people who paid £89.99 for a pre-order were given 18,000 pitcoin and there was NOTHING to spend it on….

EA’s solution: Add ONE awful looking Helmet, suit, glove and car livery that costs 18,000 pit coin to buy! 

How PATHETIC!! 

EA/CM for the first time in 15 years, I WILL NOT BUY F1 25! I won’t waste my money. 

A 7,500 pitcoin helmet?? How disrespectful to your players!!! What a slap in the face. Pure greed! 

@SDGMattSame here I will NOT buy F125 if it turns out the same as F124! I also know a lot of other people that have said the same.

The complaints here regarding the total lack of in game customisation are massive. Even more on social media.

I actually wonder if they read this feedback and what they think of it?

Surely they can see just how unpopular this decision was to completely decimate the store of basic helmet designs to buy with pit coin.

There are developers out there who could absolutely destroy this pile of garbage we currently have. And without any doubt in my mind would provide the fan base with what we have been asking for and more. Which lets face it isn't a lot!

F124 isn't worth 9 pence nevermind £90!

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
