F1 World Tech Level: Can we finally get a clear explanation from EA?

EA_Groguet​ I’ve been playing F1 World since launch, and after months of updates, there’s still one feature that is unnecessarily confusing: Tech Level progression.

Many players eventually hit a wall around TL 914 (or another apparent cap), and from that point onward, the game does a poor job of explaining what we’re actually supposed to do next.

Is it a hard cap?
Is it a soft cap?
Do we need specific events?
Specific part rarities?
A hidden progression system?
Or is it simply bugged?

The problem isn’t that progression is slow. The problem is that we’re left guessing.

I’ve seen countless posts here and on Reddit asking the exact same questions, which tells me this isn’t an isolated issue. If so many players are confused, then the game isn’t communicating the system clearly enough.

It would be incredibly helpful if EA added:

  • A clear explanation of how Tech Level progression works.
  • An indicator showing why progression has stopped.
  • Information about any soft caps or progression requirements.
  • Better in-game guidance instead of forcing players to search forums for answers.

This isn’t a complaint about difficulty. I actually enjoy having long-term progression.

This is simply about transparency.

A game shouldn’t require its community to reverse-engineer one of its core progression systems.

And yes… we’ve been discussing this since launch.

At this point, the only thing progressing slower than my Tech Level is the official explanation. 😄

EA, can we finally get some clarity?

    900 is the soft cap. 1000 is the hard cap (maximum level). Once you have all 8 parts installed at around level 914, use ENGINEERING to craft better parts (above 900). You can also upgrade the technical level of each part three times—bringing you to 1000. Also, don't miss out on the "lightning" parts (they are better).
