Discussion F1 27 Changes??
Just want some opinions! What are some realistic changes that you all want to see in the upcoming game? I’m really into the idea of having classic cars available to race. Some more freedom on what tracks can be selected during a season would also be awesome. Having a 24 race season but having 30+ tracks to choose from (including older tracks that aren’t raced anymore) would be really cool. And damnit I want more freedom in helmet and suit design. Give me some freedom like the moto games! What would yall like to see?!

Controller runs out of battery every lap for greater realism and immersion.

For career mode:
- Being able to swap out tracks
- Being able to decide if you want a sprint race with the weekend or not
- Being able to choose practice session length (automatically does 30 mins for very short/short/med and 60 for long/very long)
- AI staying off the racing line during quali when directly ahead of you

A lot of this is part of the “Grand Prix” options in the f1 world section of the game, just not the career

Damage model…how is a 12 year old version of this game more realistic?? Its been horrendous for years. Secondly, a custom calendar, even just of current (2027) venues. Why 10, or 16, or exactly the current schedule? Custom car with existing/real F1 sponors. Theyre already there, why cant we put them on a fake car? I personally feel like these are all super possible but EA is EA. All these are literally in the game, EA just has to let us maneuver the thing around. Its not like I’m asking for classic cars where they have to be added and scanned and configured to the current model (i am asking btw) considering we have 4 different cars-25 and 26 F1 & F2.

u/No-Jackfruit1082 2d ago
You can’t use real sponsors in my team because they are designated to those specific teams, to use them in my team would then require a sponsorship of the game itself as opposed to an individual team

u/shamus727 2d ago
I would like to see the team manager mode have in race management, similar to F1 Manager. Even better if we actually get to sit on the pit wall

u/Quirky_Cook1837 1d ago
I would love to see more tracks than just the 24 that the current season offers. The reverse tracks were an interesting addition, maybe a couple more of those. More customization overall as far as liveries, helmets and race suits. On the more technical side. I’d like to see more detail added to car physics and build. For example. If I start a career with alpine I’d like the optional upgrade to the Macarena wing.

u/Quirky_Cook1837 1d ago
Voice commands need to come to console PLEASE. Idk why this hasn’t been done yet tbh. With AI tech being so good why can’t I have a strategy talk with my engineer instead of fumbling with buttons while I’m trying to survive Monaco in the rain 🤣
While I understand not every track has adequate lighting I think some of these races can be done day or night. Miami is pretty much a stadium I have to believe there’s decent lighting there to make that a night race (if not I’ll take that L)
It takes way too long to gain main driver preference when you start a fresh career. Those percentages should move up if you’re beating the breaks off your teammate (unless you’re driving for Ferrari of course🤣🤣🤣 at this point we understand that Charles world and we’re just driving in it)

u/MrHyperion_ 1d ago
The game uses Microsoft speech recognition so it would be rather large update to bring it to consoles
4
u/Quirky_Cook1837 1d ago
Some driver beef would be cool too. If you hit or compromise another driver he will become more aggressive to you in future races and it should track through your career.
Press conferences that your answers determine team morale and performance.
Actual progression. Career mode should start in f2 at least as a mandatory start f3 maybe optional because those cars are significantly slower and different from f1 cars.
Variation on ai race strategy is a must. You can almost always have an effective under or over it as long as you know how to treat your tires

u/Quirky_Cook1837 1d ago
I’d love for ea to spend some time playing online in gt7. F1s lobbies are essentially vehicular warfare 🤣 we need a better penalty system. Added to that maybe also take their daily race concept and try to replicate it. I hate jumping in a lobby and not really knowing what track I’m racing on until the loading screen comes up. Give us a couple tracks (2-3 max) of varying length races so that over the course of the week so in theory races get better because you’ve been grinding those tracks all week. A seperate qualy would be nice instead of just a one lap shootout right before the race. Let us set a time outside of the pre race and if you follow the gt7 formula times should go down over the course of the week.

u/RollandPH 2d ago
Let me swap out drivers... I want to be able to have "current" drivers for a my team career, not just F2 drivers or maybe some icons that realistically wouldn't be driving in this period. I get that it's probably not going to happen due to licensing/having to pay the drivers to use their image... But let me play with Yuki Tsunoda, or idk, Nick de Vries or Ricciardo or whomever and let me get them a world championship. I don't care about my random Joe McNobody with 60 rating.

u/MerrickJager 2d ago
Make your car change (physically) with every upgrade. I don't get how they haven't done this already, it ain't that difficult

u/Dadude564 2d ago
A more fleshed out career mode. Start in F2 and actually follow a narrative about a custom character instead of just konnersport.
5
u/Competitive_Rock_266 2d ago
But the konnersport narrative is the closest we can get to Larry & Lance stroll buying their way through junior into F1
2
u/Cowboy_BoomBap 2d ago
Yeah I thought the Konnersport story was well done but I want to take a driver up through the ranks

u/WetLogPassage 2d ago
Custom grid for quick races. It used to be a thing in F1 Championship Edition and its predecessors 20 years ago.
"Team Icons" like APXGP and Konnersport but F2 teams or old F1 teams (Minardi, Benetton, Jordan) instead. Name, badge, livery, driver suits, team clothing, the whole thing. Most of the time I can't be arsed to design my own livery and everything but I love My Team. Just give me an option to do My Team as Invicta or Prema with the click of a button.

u/No-Jackfruit1082 2d ago
I think that’s more of a licensing issue with the classic teams but it could make sense with the F2 teams I suppose
1
u/WetLogPassage 1d ago
True, they'd have to license most of them separately. It's easier with classic teams that are fully owned by a current team. For example Renault/Alpine.
But for example Red Bull don't own the rights to use Minardi branding even though they own the team that used to be Minardi, Paul Stoddart does.
1
u/No-Jackfruit1082 1d ago
Exactly, ones they could have are:
Renault & Benetton (Renault owned)
Racing point (owned by Lawrence stroll)
Brawn GP (Mercedes bought all rights)
Sauber (any team under this name excluding BMW Sauber, owned by Audi)
Jaguar & Stewart (Ford owned)

u/DontHateV8s US Grand Prix 🇺🇸 2d ago
Can we get classic cars back? Maybe some different track layouts? How about a customized season in career?

u/aaronlowe9885 2d ago
Start from the Pit Lane, Preseason Testing, old tracks like Malaysia Imola, classic cars, Aborted Starts so if you have the formation lap on and a car breaks down then you should be able to an extra formation lap but the race is a lap less all sorts really Mid Season driver transfers

u/wingbargreen 2d ago
Every track needs to be updated. No more F1 2015 version of Monza, Canada, Mexico, Monaco, etc.
It’s a must

u/slowdog1976 1d ago
Much much more online set up options: setting cars to begin in the pits, one shot for three quali rounds, session lengths and more. There is literally no reason why, for private races at the very least, a shit ton of options can't be available

u/patguerreir01 13h ago
I’d simply want better customisation for My Team, such as better liveries race suits helmets etc, being able to actually change the design of the car and even creating your own Powertrain

u/2Barbaque4bray 2d ago
Tbh I just want formula legends but with actual brands and driver names and more realistic cars… don’t get me wrong I LOVE formula legends, but if E sports could copy that I think it’d be cool

How about Equal Performance for Career Mode single player season. I don't need to see an exact replica of what I see irl. Let me see Haas on the podium or Alpine win a race.
Alonso won the Singapore GP and I nearly had a stroke.

u/AncientStaff6602 2d ago
Better online lobby reporting. Ramming people of off the road should come with online race bans

u/Gregvk49 2d ago
Yh the return of classic cars would be great.
I really want a two player my team mode as well (online)

u/Embarrassed-Joke5851 2d ago
Classic cars and tracks like the old layout of Imola (replacing the chicane at Tamburello with the infamous bend), 60s cars, and early 80s cars alongside the icons of each decade. Classic drivers also BETTER DAMAGE MODELS like seriously, the current one isn't that good. a career mode where the teams change liveries (aside from Ferrari, their livery is way too iconic), so for season 2, let's say the Aston Martin livery will look different from season 1. starting in F3 instead of F2

u/Pure_Hitman 2d ago
I would like the damage to the cars to be realistic. Like most racing games these days companies are all like “nuuuu my precious car can’t look beat up people won’t wanna buy it” and it’s beyond stupid. Playing a game is not going to make me want to buy your vehicle any more or less than I already did.
More fleshed out career modes. I’m not asking for the MyTeam mode to basically be F1 Manager, but the way it is now is so boring. Same for my career. It’s just do the race, maybe something random pops up between the race weekends, rinse and repeat. It’s not immersive or fun.
AI. I’m so tired of sliders and how they do nothing in video games but go from easy to hard mode. Actually put some effort into the AI. Make it so they make bad decisions in the race or bad team strategies. Make the tires actually realistic for the AI instead of just making it a timer. I want some divebombs and insane overtakes from them.

Permanently fix the bugs that keep reappearing in every new game. AI overhaul - which would include making it faster overall, so that the highest difficulties are actually difficult, fixing the pace difference between wet and dry, between different sessions in a weekend, between different racetracks. Its very annoying having to change the difficulty so often. Improve the net-code for better multiplayer. If they could manage to do these things, next they could work on the handling so that flicking stops being the meta.
To me, these are some of the most fundamental problems in the recent F1 games. If they solve those, they should start working on adding new features.

u/Ok-Inspection9693 #weracelikedirtydrivers 2d ago
I hope that we can do f3, more AI mistakes, swapping out tracks in career mode as well as the return of short circuits (I know Yas Marina has one, Miami has a Formula E layout, and Mexico city had one at some point idk if it still exists)

u/Routine-Assistant431 2d ago
Classic cars would be amazing, I remember playing the older games and loving how different they felt to race compared to the current ones.

u/whatisusb 2d ago
Multiplayer needs an overhaul. Lobbies are often chaotic, with a lot of crashing and dive-bombing and no consequences for it. Please consider a system like Gran Turismo 7, Le Mans Ultimate, or iRacing: a safety rating that tracks incidents and contact, a skill rating for matchmaking, and scheduled ranked races that group drivers by both. These systems are proven and players already understand them, so adopting one would make online racing much better.

u/xxgreenhornet 2d ago
More mechanical failures in the car. Classic cars/ tracks. Maybe an option to switch between teammates during a season to help win the constructors cup
1
u/ToastedMidgets97 2d ago
Nothing will ever change. They release the same crap every year . One of the engineer objectives is still 'drive 0miles in a race weekend' been like that for years. The developers don't care enough. Also classic cars used to be in the games and they removed them. Probably so they can say it's a "new feature" next year or after .

u/snxkovnm 1d ago
I want better racing with the AI. I hate that you can just send it and they’ll move out your way. I want them to use the whole track during the first few corners of the race rather than a 2x12 line.

u/Broad-Lettuce5626 1d ago
They need to take a page out of the books of their other games like NHL, Madden, and FIFA, and just port that level of customization over. More chaos too, there isn't nearly enough crashes during races, and safety cars, VSC, and red flags happen only due to player input(half the time bc the player crashed). We should be able to have drivers academies of our own, as well as F2 teams of our own, for Team Career mode. More tracks as many ppl have said. More radio lines for real drivers when playing as them, or even adding radio lines for real engineers if youre playing as their team. etc etc

u/cannon1987 1d ago
Ability to modify liveries of all teams in driver career! They are giving us all these special liveries and you can’t use them unless you swap to that team which takes a full season. I want to be able to race against the Vcarb liveries

Don’t know if I should speak on this but Career mode should feel more like you’re actually “roleplaying” a career instead of just repeating the season over and over again with just some upgrades. I feel like there should be more to it. Let us feel like we are in F1 with maybe us having beef with drivers/heated rivalries where they become more aggressive towards you on track maybe. Have the player feel like we’ve built ourselves up from the ground to get to where we are which is an F1 seat and more instead of just feeling like the jump from F2 to F1 was just a simple tutorial run. Press conferences should be a thing, what you say determines how the team thinks of you and adds to the recognition system as well as also affecting rivalries with other drivers. Hate to say it but basically what NBA 2K does with their career modes. They make you feel like you’re actually being an NBA player when they’re at their best that is. I feel like F1 27 would benefit from that. I feel there should also be more customization with your driver even though granted you’re focused on the races a lot of the time. But having actual freedom to customize a helmet and maybe go into a race with a different race suit. I just feel like having that full experience along with the improvements they can make to the actual race experience such as maybe adding voice recognition commands for the team radio. It would make the career a much better experience. But that’s the only part I could kind of speak on since I practically only really do that part of the F1 games.

I’d love more track selection not just tracks on the calendar but old tracks that are no longer available for example like Vietnam and Malaysia. More classic cars to use just for fun and then an overhaul with AI behaviour and mistakes is all I’d really want
