Re: Tyre Allocation on F1 22

@Hichel18 This has kinda been covered the past weeks a lot..

A) There is no "tyre allocation" IRL
B) All teams get the exact same amounts of tyre for each compound (8s, 3m, 2h)
C) from what i remember they have to use 1m in P2 and return it there and 1s for Q3 and can only use it there.

Yes its a problem but the easiest solution remains letting us choose completely free what tires we want to use in practice. "Fake" using tyre allocation to shift tyres around would be a more complicated fix i think, but it definitely NEEDS to change!

    @Meza994 Thanks for the clarification! I'm kinda new to EA Forums and I'm indeed quite lost on it.

    Indeed it needs to change! As it is, indeed it's quite static in terms of strategy and can really hinder if we have problems during the race.

    If we take out the Soft from Q3, the Medium from Practise and the race mandatories, one solution could be to let us pick which set we want to use for each session of the event. Could be waaay too complicated for our current system, But I do think we have ways to make it better. Hopefully they will be able to improve on the system.

    @Hichel18 In theory yes but as a fix for f1 22 it would be too complicated i guess.. But we have to wait and hope..

    And yeah many people get lost here especially with new topics up every hour from post release so dont worry buddy

    Side note. not sure if you can help.
    The 22 regs state you have free choice of tyre to start in the race.
    Now as I’m just having fun the MY TEAM mode.
    on race days the allocation is sometimes medium and hards, Yet other teams are starting the race on softs. I have on occasion but there is no choice for myself or at least I’ve not found it.

    @sid3showbob You might have to add an extra stint just to make Softs selectable, then delete the stint with the tyre you don't want.

    @s00zster So ridiculous how we have to leapfrog our way to a desired strategy because we don't have proper tires in the first place...

    @IcmanMUC Of course not because some new players could feel bad because they managed their tyres badly🙄

    Yeah obviously player fault and tyre management.

    All race go according to the plan, and not a single race event (hey safety car !) can lead to another stop where a set of fresh medium can be helpfull.

    EA not fixing a game breaking bug? Shocking. I regret buying this game. And regret more for buying it digitally so can't even return it. Haven't played since I realized that you can only so mediums to hard strategy... So since two weeks after release. Nice one, EA!

    PS. When and where did they say that?

    @Meza994 is the concept of returning the 2 sets of the “most used” tyres still applicable IRL? Other than what you’ve already stated about using and returning a M tyre in P2?

    Most "funny" fact is, they saying its not possible to fix but meanwhile, you can use two sets of Mediums tires in Sprint races 😂

    Each team returns two sets of their choice after each practice session.  
    For example, Max had 2 new mediums and 2 new hards  available at the start of COTA.  This means he returned 1 medium and 5 soft sets after practices.

    @gatorlb Yup they can return any tyre they want IRL but as a compromise it would help if we were at least able to return the most worn tyres out of all tyres and not just their weird choice.. I mean we know they dont want to bother with any AI development to or actual player freedom so it would be at least an easier version but yeah ideally get it 100% correct..

    It's just a * game developed by incompetent people.

    They do not even deign to respond to the problems that the community exposes. It is not possible for a game to be released with an official license and not even the basic rules are respected. I spent some money on this *.

    I opened a post for a bug on the "new" F2 22 (where qualifying is buggy) and they didn't even bother to answer me. That is, they have added a mode that cannot be used and they don't even fix it! There are no words for this crap.

    Where are the developers?  why don't they make themselves heard?

    There is a my topic in bug section where i found a bug with qualifing of F2 22. Essentially the game reverses the starting grid in sprint race 1 even from 11th to 20th position, when in fact only the first 10 positions have to be reversed.  from last disqualified, I was 11th on the grid.  But apparently the developers don't care at all and therefore we have a fake mode despite the development delay.

    That's cool. Using 3 tyre compounds and still getting DQ'ed for not using multiple compounds.
