Morthynger 7 Posted July 9 When are we all able to set our own weather in ALL game modes. It's ******* me off that I have to race in 6 heavy rain tracks in a ROW in the my team mode. Let me use an option where I can set the weather to dynamic, dry, clean and wet. Is that so hard ? 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apcud7 5 Posted July 9 This is a major problem for my league as well. I'm forced to run unranked multiplayer with my family and track everything in Excel by hand, because we can't set our league to dry weather. This is an option in online play, grand prix mode, and time trials. Why not everywhere else?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morthynger 7 Posted July 9 Yes, I think it's really not that hard for a company like codemasters to put out a patch that allows to change the weather to your liking in EVERY mode. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apcud7 5 Posted July 9 I know, and I've seen this exact comment for the last two years. I wish they would just give us some kind of information as to whether or not it'll ever happen. @BarryBL any update on this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andersoneal 2 Posted July 9 I totally agree, in F1 2018 you could change the climate in any type of mode, but since 2019, you cannot change. I can't understand why they changed that. What is the problem? it frustrates me, because I'm not good at rain, I play with my cousin and we need to restart the entire weekend just to avoid the rain. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morthynger 7 Posted July 10 I mean we pay more than 50€ for the game and yet we can't decide in which weather we like to race. The game is perfect don't get me wrong, I love it, but I think it would be quite nice to decide between dynamic, dry or wet weather in every game mode. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aef251 92 Posted July 10 This should absolutely be a feature, especially after 2019 was “broken” after patch 1.14 which made the AI far too fast in the rain for the way my controller is set up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlennShea 0 Posted July 10 (edited) This is the reason i always stop playing this game after 2 seasons. Is the f1 games especially F1 2020 there are so many assists the car almost drives itself. But changing the weather is suddenly unrealistic. I really like this game but this thing ruins my overall experience every year 😞 Please change this.

Morthynger 7 Posted July 12 (edited) no surprise, all those threads that suggest a weather change feature in every game mode gets ignored by mods. edit: got answered by Barry. Edited July 14 by Morthynger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rockomax 15 Posted July 12 It is quite strange that you can have close to auto pilot assists, but adjusting weather affects immersion according some people. Changing AI difficulty, Safety Car, tire temp simulation or even race length in between sessions somehow doesn't affect immersion? 5 lap races in a career mode .... lol I am not total rubbish in wet conditions, but I just don't enjoy it. If it was just this one odd race per season with rain, I could live with it. 10+ races is just too much. Just the options, Dynamic, dry, clear or wet ( for the die hards ) would be fine. I don't need to micromanage on how the weather in every session will be like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BarryBL 4,314 Posted July 13 It is something for investigation and we would like to add in future iterations/titles of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaartenH 11 Posted July 17 @BarryBLWould be great to have it in this version of the game sometime, although I can understand bug fixing is the main focus right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LocoVarrido 2 Posted July 17 I guess they think it is a good weather simulation system and they want to force us to use it. It is frustrating and very hard to figure out the real reason for blocking that options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Problem is barry this is a 10 year old problem and its been complained about for just aslong. Dynamic weather is great when done well but it just rains too damn much and it ****** you off lol 15 out of 21 races in my last F1 19 season career 13 out of 20 in my 2018 season career its just a poor system way too much rain. Just ungrey the option! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdamFreeman 224 Posted July 19 Or at the very least reduce career/my team rain probabilities by half? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdamFreeman 224 Posted July 19 So 3 races done on 2020 and 2 rain effected races! Why oh why @BarryBL this ruins the games for me year in year out in career. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ultra3142 384 Posted July 19 A quick Google suggests that typically 2 or 3 real world races per season are wet, so something of this order would seem reasonable for the game to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdamFreeman 224 Posted July 19 2 or 3 races fine 70% of your races should not be wet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TurkeySloth2107 77 Posted July 19 10 minutes ago, AdamFreeman said: 2 or 3 races fine 70% of your races should not be wet. Just a maths nitpick, two of three is 67%, not 70%. The first time we get to 70% is seven of ten. So, you'd need a seventh wet race before your eleventh race to get to 70%. But, I agree that two of three races being wet is too often. Of course, I'm being exact here, and your next neace needs/needed to be wet to get to 75%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was talking 2 or 3 races out of the full race season, not 2 of 3. The 70% number was the OP talking in relation to his own experience (I suspect as a ballpark figure) rather than my numbers.

dino78 14 Posted July 19 A percentage slider for each race weekend would be good and add some unpredictability. Ie. For Silverstone i might move weather slider to 85% chance of rain. Or for Austria i might move it to 5% chance of rain. Id still like to be able to decide if i wanted a wet race, or dry to wet or wet to dry etc but if i want some randomness i could use the slider.

Morthynger 7 Posted July 19 10 bucks this feature is not coming out in the next 2 years to let us decide in what weather we want to race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gibbs444 1 Posted July 19 Gggzz, I am pulling my hair out! This makes the game so tedious. I am trying to dial in my car spend alot of time in practice doing this and then it starts raining, I get the car dialed in then it starts raining in qualifying. I go through all of practice and then qualifying to find it is raining during the race. The problem is it should be considered a bug, the system is broke, in 4 out of my first 5 races it rained at some point. Codemasters this isnt fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
