okay actually loaded the save in this time
let's take a look at the 2029 F1 roster
for Sunwest and Red Bull
for Williams and McLaren
for Audi and Haas
for Ferrari and Alpine
for VCARB and Mercedes

Ferrari's lineup remains the same
Alpine's lineup remains the same
VCARB replace Maloney and Magnussen with Aron and Hauger
Mercedes replace Hauger with Maloney
Aston Martin's lineup remains the same
all 4 of my affiliates are still in F2
just signed Arvid Lindblad
i own the trident team now
so i decided to load in Orlen Alpine this season instead of next season
keen brook
Hm, that's not really much transfers.
And I see the 1st generic driver joining the grid, interesting.
But what are these ratings, why are they all so low?
floral apex
i feel like the ai rating system is a bit broken
floral apex
But what are these ratings, why are they all so low?
ratings system being odd
keen brook
Like I know for the AI teams driver ratings drop at like 28 years already.
But Bearman having only 84 is just wrong.
Even the ratings from Aron, Hauger, Maloney and Doohan are too low.
Like they have almost the same rating in my save in 2025.
floral apex
aron is just so wrong considering this should be the save where he got a 2025 seat
floral apex
I don't know if its my save thats broken or if its the game's rating system
keen brook
For me it seems normal.
although
Thinking about it.
It feels like some drivers are stuck in their rating.
floral apex
I did start this save during one of the bugged patches but i don't think the ratings system would've been affected
keen brook
Like I notice some drivers growing quite fast and others insanely slow.
floral apex
I feel like i should go in and manually increase the driver ratings by like 5 or something
Or give everyone max growth and see what happens
keen brook
Like Martins has a 80 in 2025 already.
Whilst Sargeant who is still in F1 only has a 79.
floral apex
Also i think Sargeant got fired for the third time in my save
keen brook
Maloney even only a 77
Some ratings really are a bit odd.
Or maybe that's just changed development rates.
Because I think I've heard on the F1 Manager Discord about Maloney being nerfed.
floral apex
Only 12 drivers from the current grid remain: VER, PIA, SAI, ALB, TSU, GAS, OCO, LEC, NOR, LAW, STR and BOT

I was originally only going to count 11 but decided to include Lawson cuz he is technically "on the current grid"

If I count that way it's still 14 because Lawson is in but Colapinto not.

no
i would just play f1 23 instead
considering f1 24 is just f1 23 but different handling and 2024 liveries
and f1 24 has stupid drs trains that mean you need an extreme pace advantage or tyre advantage to break drs at half the circuits
keen brook
yeah
I mean that creates intense battles but not in the way it should.
And the AI is just way too OP in straight line speed.
Generally the AI is a massive step backwards.

i would just play f1 23 instead
I would but it’s not on sale so it’s 70$

Do you have any other F1 game?

F1 2019 have it since launch but felt like needing an upgrade with the new cars and drivers

Then for that low price F1 24 could be worth it.
F1 2019 is still a decent game but yeah, quite outdated.

Then for that low price F1 24 could be worth it.
Is the AI good like can I have good battles because I hardly get fights in 2019

Ironically the DRS trains cause battles.
It's just like almost impossible to get rid of them.

Then Stroll spun into the wall and out of the race.

It's very curious about the pit lane starts.
In Sao Paulo you're then half a lap behind.
floral apex
oh yeah with the long asf pit lane
keen brook
Yeah, 1st you have to wait until all cars are past the pit exit line and then the drivers also need to drive through the whole thing.
I hope there won't be issues if, let's say, 1 or more cars will never get to the pit exit line.
That also reminds me, where are the start crashes gone that were a thing in the 23 manager?
floral apex
start crashes?
keen brook
In the 23 manager they happened regularly.
Seems like they removed that.
That just came into my mind because they could cause bugs with pit lane starts.
Because the game waits until every car gets past the pit exit line but well.
DNFed cars will never get past it.
floral apex
maximum amiunt of points a team can score in a 24 race season is 1146
That means i missed out on 39 points last season lmao
floral apex
DNFed cars will never get past it.
thats a good point
Maybe they'll put an exception in for DNFed cars since they'll have a different state than running cars
Same logic that sets dnfed cars to "out" probably
keen brook
yeah like well, the cars in the pit lane itself
floral apex
I guess cars will have 4 states then: on track, DNFed, in pits and pit lane start
floral apex
yeah like well, the cars in the pit lane itself<:willmao:680360271801352192>

Frontier knows what theyre doing
Cheaper price = more sales
Something EA doesn't understand

And unlike Codies' F1 games, in the manager you can expect things the community ...
yeah like this new patch

Yeah, Frontier had big issues with sellings last year.
So they lowered the price and more people bought it.

Frontier: if we sell the game for less more people will buy it
EA: lets make the equivalent of an F1 23 DLC and sell it for the same price!

And then wonder why the franchise dies out.
Which I really see happening with the Codies' F1 games.

SAMSUNG are willing to sell Utopolis, but they want 1 billion usd for the brand. This is outside of the reach for Toyota as they were rumoured to bid 300 million usd for the brand. SAMSUNG would remain their main sponsor until 2026

SAMSUNG and KIA reach an exclusive right deal for the Utopolis name, We are getting a South Korean giant in the mix as the team already uses Hyundai engines. Hyundai and KIA have reached a legendary deal to BOTH sponsor the team, KIAs role for the 2025 season is unknown but the FIA has green lighted immediate impact by KIA. Logo will be updated with KIAs logo

what does traction control do and where should I set it?
floral apex
what does traction control do and where should I set it?
it helps control your car's traction so you don't have to worry about sliding or spinning out as easily
if you're new (or on keyboard), full traction control is recommended
if you have a controller and want to get used to manually maintaining control then you can reduce it to medium
then once you're experienced enough to drive without it then you can turn it off
ocean terrace
ohh that's why Im always sliding when Im turning thankyou
floral apex
Just note that traction control doesn't always prevent you from spinning
Hitting the throttle too early/mid-turn or taking too much kerb can still unsettle the car
frozen thunder
just be like me, get slow entrances and bad exits so you don’t have to worry about either of those!

keen brook
Ironically Hauger crashing into Verstappen's stationary car prevented a red flag as Hauger pushed Verstappen's car off the racing line.
keen brook
Yes because Verstappen crashed on his own before and his stationary car caused the crash.
That's how the penalty logic in the game works.
Who has an incident is to blame for anything that happens after.

Tbh he's only mathematically still in it.
Our car can't compete against the Ferraris.
Like we need late SCs or red flags for beating them.
Because flat out full push we can get them.
But under normal race conditions they storm away into the distance.
But it definitely is a 3 way fight.
Both Leclerc and Hamilton can definitely get the title.
