Codemasters, please make the team performance variables in career easily moddable in F1 2018

Recommended Posts

Being able to mod the initial perfomance levels of the teams across Engine, Aerodynamics and Chassis would add so much replayability to the career. For example, you could make a crazy initial start where there are 5-6 teams with Grand Prix-winning potential, but with widely varying strengths.

Been saying for years to add driver and team performance bars so we can increase teams natural starting performance and certain drivers outperforming like in rl. I get its controversial and from a selling point teams/FIA/FOM/Codies don't want the lack of diplomacy having customisables that can show more equality, or worse, lower teams outperforming the top teams, egos are big in the biggest sports but it would also fix the complaints about how easy some still find the game, imagine fighting all the teams on an equal top performance stat! Races would be unreal!!

It should be something most definitely to consider if teams and FIA/FOM would agree to such a thing. But F1 is probably one of the most controlled games out there, I wouldn't hold my breath. Custom team with full management and 2 custom made drivers as a plus 2 to the current line up would be unreal too, so many ask for that, but yet to see this in an official F1 game (ever?) <Would be very interested if a past game (official only) has actually done this in the past if anyone can enlighten me.

I hope one day this will be so for F1. I'd take that over online anyday, I think most would with the issues so many have finding clean races ;)

They could. But they are not allowed, as FOM wants the modding possibilities to be as small as possible :/

Not only that, but most EULAs even state that modifications to the game are not allowed. So basically you're violating the terms and not even legally allowed to play the game like that. Not that developers punish that (at least it's rare) but then even asking developers of a licensed game to make it easier to mod is kinda funny.

It is not modding if it is a feature in the game itself. If it was not allowed then how come career performance progression a thing?
Both are depending on player choices.

It definitely isn't in the game series because of licensing issues.
