Expected features for F1 23

You were one of the people which I was happy to read again from, when I started to read in this Forum.  :D

Normally you are known for detailled posts. This one must be one of your shortest posts ever :P 

What do you mean with better balance and better features in my team? What do you expect which features will really be implemented in F1 23? I mean hopes and expectations can be very different. :D Sadly. 

My wishes:
a comprehensive editor
better design of the MyTeam cars

To me F1 22 is more about "don'ts" than "dos". The best example is F1 Life - it was worth the shot but I feel like it was a waste of resources, human and budgetwise - that could be allocated into the core of the game: handling, career progression, AI balancing, several online issues that I don't experience because I only play offline but they can't be put aside.

Looking back, F1 2020 sounds like a rock solid game: great handling and the classic F1 cars. F1 2021 had better tracks (no offense but Hanoi is miles less enjoyable than Portimão or Ímola) and towards the end of its life cycle it became as solid as F1 2020.

I think the great advice CM/EA could have is to go back to the basics, focusing on the matters that are important to the core game: handling, AI leveling, laser scanned tracks.

Plus some small tweaks so many people ask like, the most noticiable being weather customization and track selection on career modes.

This focus on the game core should and must deliver a better game upon launching. It's sad to have to wait some months so the game be at a enjoyable point. Sad not only for us players but also for the devs, no one wants to deliver a rushed half finished product.

Overall, I love F1. I'll continue to buy the games but I will - just like this year - wait several months after launch to make sure most of the bugs are corrected. This shouldn't be like this unfortunately.

@DonBlankoThanks fella👍 I’m trying to keep my posts shorter.😀

As for better balance. Better consistency between sessions and races. Not one race ai is slow next it’s fast. Ai pace better balanced and not op or up. In different parts off the track.

Better features in my team. My team is a popular mode. It should Improve on what came before aswell as add new features to provide more depth

@DonBlanko Welcome to the forum 👍🏽

With regards to your question, I echo what @ScarDuck14 says, as I only play MyTeam. Those two suggestions would improve my game experience massively. 

- Brake balance back to the game like early F1 2021

- Full tyre choice in the weekend like IRL

- More saves slots (e.g. 2+ per mode)

- filters in Time Trial

- new training mode: similat to TT but choosing tyres % wear, temperature, fuel amount to simulate each part of the race

🙂

Would also just add, there are a ton of small, “low-hanging-fruit” improvements suggested by forum users over the years, that although small, would make a big improvement. Things like accurate rain effect on the camera spring to mind. 

I hope that EA / CM really levels up next year. I started with the release of this years game and it was so terrible that i stopped playing until now, it just killed all my motivation to try to enjoy this game. Especially I was a Coop Career Guy - and my friend just has the same feeling - these bugs were too much this year...we played half a season and stopped since then...

I tried some races last week and started with McLaren to check the game after several months break - but I just can´t enjoy it anymore - the ground is just to burned for me after this Fail Launch

1) Bugs from this year should not be in F1 23 at the beginning (the obvious ones we all know..) - i think it can´t be excused what we had to experience again for this year - STOP COPYING BUGS PLEASE

2) Restart Race Option in 2 Player Career

3) Flying Laps in 2 Player Career (i know thats not an easy one)

4) Red Flags with Re-Starts

5) Improved Safety Car & more VSC 

6) Better stability in Coop Career - and it seems like in this mode AI Is different and cars are different than in single player

7) Coop MyTeam

8) Complete new menu design (its just getting old - every year the same menus)

9) F1 classic cars 

10) Stop with F1 Life

11) Include Legend drivers in career mode - not only myteam

12) Classic Tracks with possibility to include in seasons 

13) balanced AI on all tracks - I don´t like the different AI levels on each track and to have to adapt after each patch - its ruining the experience - Most of us don´t have time to cope with CM / EA patches / massive game changing moves and re-adapt heavy after each patch

14) No crucial bugs at the beginning like AI STRAIGHT LINE SPEED (who is testing this game??? these are obvious problems the community is figuring out after 2 or 3 races...)

15) More options to car and facility development (look at F1 Manager 22 - there are some really good things to take over to MyCareer or MyTeam)

16) More Option in driver transfers or trades - one list with all contracts / conditions / driver stats / willingness to change teams etc. (like a real transfer market) 

17) I want to have the feeling I have to improve to keep up with AI - but at the moment on some tracks they are very bad and some they are very strong - not balanced (plus I think straight line speed is still a minor issue? Wasn´t sure, but felt like it, when i played last week)

18) Race calendar as we wish from 1 to X-Amount of races - and not only 3 options of season length

19) More Livery Options - like different jerseys in each sports game - this would really also tune up the experience 

20) Better presentation during the race weekend - again its a copy paste job the last years - you get a lot of money from us for this half-assed approach - we earned / deserved better - don´t you agree? 

21) Make a bigger easier BETA phase for all of us - in an early stage to be able to improve the core of the game (RACING) - I just can´t see YOUTUBERS (Aarava, tiamet..etc.. all of them..well 90% of them..) telling me every year this is the best F1 ever..and after 2 weeks the community is exploding because of the bad state of play...let us be part of it. 

22) Way better graphics - allthough they look improved..there is a lot of gap to state of the art graphics (talking about ps5)

I think if i take my time, I will be able to wish 10-15 points more to improve but if most of my mentioned stuff would be realised i would be amazed. 

My expectations are very low and I honestly think F1 is going down the same road as MADDEN - and it will end in an unfriendly user experience with zero improvements. 

P.S: don´t bring something like FUT in Fifa, or MyTeam in NBA etc.. aggressive microtransaction policy.. 1st bring the game to the highest level possible and then you can milk the cow if you wish - but i think this has to be earned - and fire the guy who thought F1 life is important (CLOWN)
