Feedback F1 25

Change Open Lobbies:

The licenses don’t make any sense if every D-license driver can race with every A-license driver. If you want, you can leave the open lobbies as they are for exactly those kinds of drivers, but give us lobbies where we can race only with A-license drivers — or a ranked system with the real F1 cars instead of the F1 World cars.

Maybe you could also add something like a vote-to-kick system in open lobbies. Players who drive dirty and disrespectfully could be voted out. Or give the lobby leader the ability to hand out penalties or disqualifications after the race. That could also be really helpful. I know all of this is possible in league races, but not everyone always has time for league racing, and sometimes you just want to race casually with friends for one or two hours in the evening and have fun! It would probably be fairly easy to implement steps like this for multiplayer, and I think it would make more people enjoy F1 in the long run.

Loading screen after race:

I’ve already discussed this many times with friends after a race while we were waiting ages to get back to the lobby. If it were possible, it would be really, really cool if instead of the loading screen and the list showing who pressed “continue” or not, there were race highlights playing in the background during that time.

Career mode:

Obviously the AI needs to be improved — it shouldn’t just stick to the racing line all the time and should also make mistakes. Maybe it would even be possible to let it learn how to drive on its own like a kind of artificial intelligence, even though I know that would probably be very difficult to implement.

It would also be great if you could use real sponsors in career mode. Being able to edit real liveries and make them look very realistic would be a big improvement. Other games like GT7 already allow things like that, so in principle it should be possible.

Setups:

It would be cool if there were a separate menu section just for setups. A place where people could upload their setups and you could simply download them. In that menu, the individual settings could also be explained in more detail — what exactly each adjustment does — maybe even with a short video. In Football Manager 26, for example, certain tactical settings are explained with detailed text and include a small visual illustration, so something like that could work here as well.

I know these are quite a few requests I’m making here, but if you were to really overhaul the multiplayer, for example, and add a separate setup section in the menu, that would already be a huge step forward! The loading screen with race highlights would also be a really nice touch.

With career mode, you can keep working on it gradually over the years and improve it step by step.

I also think the core gameplay itself is really great, and it’s a lot of fun when you actually have fair lobbies.

So please take my feedback to heart and try to change a few things for the future — you really lose interest in the game very quickly if you can’t race properly online.
