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

@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 add to my list:
- new tracks 2023 (Losail + Las Vegas) & new Singapore track layout
- clearly new set of 'authentic' sprint races (6x)
- new qualifying format (2x tbc) in which there will be Q1 on (H) tyres, Q2 on (M) and Q3 on (S)
- new compound C0 or better new C1 between the current C1 (which becomes C0) and C2
Nice one, especially classic formula 1 cars, WHY DO WE NOT HAVE WHAT WE HAD IN PREVIOUS GAMES ALREADY? AND EVERYONE LOVES IT.... and its not even so hard, just have more models in the game, what the heck?
Another thing is, be able to watch replays you saved and actually watch from OTHER DRIVER'S PERSPECTIVE, why is this not in again???
I'd rather they keep the supercars in the game as a permanent feature. It's a blast taking them for rival loops around these awesome tracks, especially in off season. They could add a very new Porsche to the lineup. A few classic but relevant F1 cars would be nice also.

If you didn't notice, they only stick to manufacturers who race in F1.
I would like to have a feel in driving Koenigsegg Jesko or Lamborghini Aventador but we need to purchase different games for those.
And these sports cars have worn out pretty quickly anyway. Game is about Formula One so it would be better to stick to its history and maybe future.
It would also be a time better spent to implement these ideas presented here rather than rugs and lamps for living room 😉
@P4st3l1akI will admit I do enjoy a drift in hot lap before progressing to race weekend. If they added drift leaderboards I would have even be tempted to take it more serious.
But other than that: everything except the core (F1&F2) game needs to be removed.
Then they need to forget about adding big new shiny modes. People buy F1 games are majorly F1 fans who only care about driving F1 cars in all the current modes.
What they/we want is simply improving what’s right and good year on year whilst adding features F1 fans who love the tech geek stuff just as much as the racing… to those modes that add to the depth and immersion. Evolution of the game year on year.
Since the beginning off F1 to now. It’s still the same sport. A grid off cars racing to be the fastest over the race distance by Constantly Pushing what is possible.
Only things that change yearly are the regulations. Mostly minor with the occasional big change.
The game would should reflect that
You're right @DonBlanko . I am missing those demands from team you could see in 2018 or 2019 where you had goals to complete.
And if you didn't, you got kicked out of team and hoped someone else would take you on 😉
Also, goals could provide extra cash for perks.
Also, Acclaim is fine to set your price but when rivalry is broken, it makes little sense. Teams have demands when you try to sign up with them but you cannot request anything in return.
I would like to have set of options to request from team when signing up, not only salary 😉
1. Driver stat editor. Preferably within career mode so we can change them between races per file if we wish.
2. Remove (rework) personnel facility boosts. No more permanent stat increases.
3. Either a). Massively reduce amount of resource points earned (remove them from weekly resources) or b). Add some more things to use them on. I have a few ideas below.
4. As well as using resource points to "save" upgrades, we should also be required to spend resource points developing next season's car which would affect the "base" performance of the car. For example, this year, Red Bull base would be 500, Mercedes 420, Alpine 360 etc. The more points spent on next season's car, the more likely that you'll have a higher base (no upgrades) performance.
5. Turn personnel facilities into driver training. Here we could spend resource points to increase our drivers stats (redundant if we're using a stat editor but there will be plenty of people preferring to let stats change organically). Each stat could have an XP bar and once you reach maximum, that stat increases. Focus could help boost this, or a lie focus can make XP drop, potentially losing stats.
6. Livery/helmet editor similar to GT or Forza.
7. Option to manually decide driver lineups between seasons. Can help us make some realistic changes and keep the Mazepin's and Latifi's out of Ferrari.
8. Allow us to pick which icon drivers appear in both career modes and allow the AI to recruit them. (Would have been ideal for Hulkenberg this year, or Alonso in 2020 and potentially Ricciardo for the next game).
9. Driver creator. Much like we already do for our player character, except with the addition of giving them stats, acclaim and allowing them to appear in the career modes for us or the AI.
10. Drop F1 Life. It's awful.
11. If you stick with the store, put classic liveries, iconic helmet designs, or even icon drivers in there instead of a pitiful livery that looks like a toddlers colouring book.
12. Allow us to decide if we'd rather create a driver or play a real driver in career mode. This year for example, if we pick Alonso, then season 1 we'd obviously drive for Alpine but could sign for Aston for season 2 but we're using his name, face and helmet rather than a created driver. If we pick, let's say, Button or Pourchaire, then we choose our team and teammate the same way as if we created a driver.
13. My Team. Rather than owner driver, we have to hire two drivers and then choose which one to play as at the start of the season.
14. Team editor. Potentially able to edit base stats if the teams so we can mix up season one if we want and have Williams a frontrunner if we wish.
15. Team creator. Like we already do for My Team, design/choose livery, pick which drivers are the default drivers (obviously has to be an icon, created or F2 driver) and can choose if we want it to appear in GP mode or driver career. So you could be racing for Alfa against a created Lotus with Hakkinen and Lawson as it's drivers if you wanted. AI would run the team like any other and you could even join them if you wanted.
I honestly don’t know why these things Haven't e out into the game. Ai is a huge job to train. Even at its worst it’s still better than anyone else’s. But this game is specific to F1. It doesn’t have to work well across tons off different classes and handling models. GT7. Or add endless RPG elements. No massive open world. Or thousands off real life sports stars images and. Stats to keep on top off. Like FIFA. Had.
Has a couple off dozen tracks 50ish drivers 20ish teams and a few game modes. That have remained almost identical since they were added: Seriously the core game is tiny compared to other games. So why they Havnt taken advantage off what’s infront off them. With the attitude that we may not have tons off content like others games. So let’s make what we have awesome
@Liavealsome of your proposals seem to collide with F1 Manager, pal 😉 I am not sure it would be good to mix those two together. Most of gamers buy F1 games to sim race, not manage other drivers. I like the idea of being owner/driver, you cannot get kicked out of team for insufficient performance 😉 I would only like to have a say into my teammate's car setup and/or component usage and maybe other strategic decisions (e.g. tyre stints). I am The Boss after all 😉
@ScarDuck14 yes, you're right, game model seems to be pretty small, compact and unchanging when you boil it down to the actual core.
But as you mentioned in some other topic (I think it was you, sorry if I mixed it up with someone else's comment), there seem to be different dev teams working on yearly releases, with different starting code. So team that fixes F1 22 may not be involved in F1 23 at all.
Also, we don't know what AI training facilities they have built in into their testing procedures. I would hope that in this age of machine learning and deep learning they have something implemented on their side but I can only guess as I lack the information.
But you're their champion and you have their ear so we rely on you same way we do on EA/CM guys in here 😉
@P4st3l1ak"So team that fixes F1 22 may not be involved in F1 23 at all."
I think it is totally understandable that CM is splitting their teams for working on the next game and the acutal game in the same time.
But what really shouldn't happen is, that a bug, which was solved in 21 happens again in 22. And so on. I mean, I don't know how it is to work as a game developer but every year a lot of content like cutsence, commentary, graphics, etc. are a copy from the game before. So if they copy things from the game before, they really should make safe, that they don't copy bugs which were already solved.
Sometimes I think that building the next game on the game before - every year - should be an advantage in case of bugfixing, because you can develop the core of the game better and better. New bugs only should happen in these parts of the game, which were really changed or added new. So with every game which is based on the game before, the bugs should occure less. But in the moment the opposite seem to be the case. :/ Or am I wrong?
@DonBlanko you're generally correct but bugs can be introduced when you try to improve code or make it more efficient. Re-engineering code often brings mishaps because you may forget about fixes made elsewhere. It also depends what you use as source. It could be that F1 22 was rebuilt almost from scratch apart from some graphic content which was re-used. We know that game physics had to change due to new regulations.
But I understand the confusion and frustration, I would also expect more thorough testing for known bugs, to make sure they don't show up again.
But companies have deadlines and obligations to manage gamers' expectations so, sometimes, it's release first, bugfix next 😉
But I must admit, it may be hard to keep up when releasing games on yearly basis. Most companies have years for development before they push out their games.
(sorry for lots of 'buts' 😉 )

One more track to change, final sector in Spain! 🤓
