F1 2018 Game Ideas

[JasonWilko 33]

Random mechanical failures needs to be an option.
I really liked having to play around with the engine parts and gearbox but you would never have a blow up until a part is 100%, I hope they expand on this  and let us choose if we want random failures on.
options could be as simple as:
off- same as 2017 (100%= blow up)
reduced- once a part gets over 70% it can randomly fail (like tyres can puncture after 70%)
full- once a part is over 20% it can blow up at any stage.

This would make the reliability upgrades more useful aswell. 
Also with the failures, only a ICE/ turbocharger/ control electronics actually result in a blow up where if the mgu h/k and energy store part fails it will reduce power ect ect like Ricciardo at Monaco. 

One more thing.. I hope that slow motion retirement is changed for blown ups aswell.. would like to hear a bang crackle and pop then you pull over and once you come to a stop then it can do that retirement cutscene of you getting out the car.

Just been playing a bit and as well as bringing more immersion for you as the driver into 2018, I'd love some more immersion when it comes to constructors. I don't get anything from the team about we must be beat X team this race or the importance of finishing as high up as possible beating rival teams, not just drivers!

Grid editor, which was Sony's F1 Games. It would be nice to arrange the cars between themselves to order.

I agree totally! Being the aforementioned noob, I have found it is rather difficult to enjoy the learning process without some version of education. First time I went no assists just a touch of the throttle I was doing 760's, racing in a small circle is not my thrill.  I have Forza 3 for that nonsense.

It would be cool if you could jump out of the car on practice or qualifing and talk with your engineer

If we’re thinking of adding cutscenes like engineers throwing their arms up or commentators shouting, why don’t we have RACE HIGHLIGHTS! On the post race screen we could select a race highlights option and watch the major moments, not just from you but from everyone. Watch a crash or an overtake for the lead!!

I would love another Traction Control option between medium and full. Acceleration on full is shocking, however I am not patient enough with the accelerator on medium!

Some ideas that could be very interesting to see on the game for better simulation and development of it:
- In mixer conditions between qualifying and race (dry on qualy and wet on race or vice versa) the game need to alows the driver to change the FRONT and the REAR wing;
- The AI need to be more inteligent and agressive on defending position and atacking. But not stupid like hiting the rear of the other car out of nothing (it happened two times with me);
- The fuel mix control to be on the wheel and not on the MFP because we use that a lot on the race then the MFP stays open throug all the race. And it could be better if just this control at least were on the wheel (it could be just a number on the wheel that change when you use the mixes of the fuel);
- What Codemasters could do as well to improve the physics of the game is use some really f1 drivers like Charles Leclerc that played the game on the trailer to ask them what could be better on the game to simulate better the physic of a real f1 car (in terms of aerodinamic, tyres, mechanical, setups and etc.).
