F1 2016 wishlist

[scarfaceone 0]

OK, so I liked F1 2015. It was awesome, but there are a few things that need improvements.

1. Career Mode: Rather than have, Drivers Only championship season, I want a career mode, but what I was thinking, what if you could actually post onto a Social Network? And create your own team? I thought that could work, and create your own driver.
2. Pit Crew: Codemasters said ''The reason why only the helmeted men are present in the pits in F1 Xbox 360 is because we don't have power to have everyone in there''. They do now, and yet it still is just the helmeted men on race day. So please put everyone in the pits.
3. Trophies: So this is probably more FIA forbidding them to use actual trophies, but the Silverstone Trophy is inaccurate, it doesn't have the track as Handles.
4. Classic Mode: Why can't they just make a game dedicated to this? Featuring all seasons from 1993 to 2016?
5.  Shorter career times: the shortest distance in this version in championship mode is 20, can we please have 3 lap races again?
6. Actual Telemetry: I'd like to be able to read Telemetry as well.
7. Mechanic Mode: Use someone online as a mechanic instead. Then again AI could be easier.

And that's it.

Can you imagine the furore on here if CM asked us to pay twice in the same year for (mostly) the same tracks, different cars? Some people would have a coronary!

If they were to offer a classic car and track DLC I`d buy it in a heartbeat, let`s say 6 cars, Imola, Mugello ;)

To add some smaller wishes to the list:
-Lap, Position, Time info on Replays ...it`s nice to watch, but you don`t know what`s going on.
-Tweak the shake in cockpit and hood view to be less epileptic, and add an on/off option.

They just need to add the features they took away like:

• Safety car 
• Career mode 
• Bring in some classic content 
• Interviews 
• R&D development improved


And they need to add new features like:

• Formation lap but leave an option to skip

• Lap of honour after winning an option to skip

• Better celebrations after winning

• Signature driver celebrations or random ones

• Team celebrations

• Better podium celebrations

• Better character models of the drivers its a good basis

• Driving to the grid on race day from garage but leave an option to skop

• When you retire from a crash or car failure see the driver get out of the car and remove head rest, steering wheel, and helmet

• More mechanical failures

• Emotion from drivers winning and retiring from a race through crash and mechanical failures if leading the race near the end of a race with a good result and you retire see the driver throw his steering wheel out the car and keep their visor down when they walk away from their car or pull it up and look angry 

When a driver wins the title see him celebrate with the team and show the runner(s) up getting commiserated by their team.

• Create your own driver 

• Helmet customisation

• Winter testing

• Grid order shake up each year in career mode so Ferrari be fastest one year or Redbull, Williams, McLaren or Mercedes again

• More commentary lines from David Croft and Anthony Davidson and bring in Martin Brundle and David Coulthard if you can with in race commentary about race info and current positions in the race. 


Codemasters please read this and implement these features in the next F1 game then you will have a cracking game on your hands.

You're in for one hell of a disappointment come 2016 mate.

I'd really like for pit lane to become more interactive again like how it was in F1 2010 where we, the drivers, are responsible for slowing the car down to the pit lane speed limit and the pit box or else we face a penalty and pay the price of losing time in the pit box if we brake too early/late.

Safety Car and VSC

Bring back career mode with interviews that have an impact on fans and other teams.

Manager (and even Manager-Driver) Mode instead of career mode where we buy the leftovers of Caterham or start with the bare bones of F1 cars and equipment. Succeed in order to acquire/purchase upgrades/better equipment.

Classic Circuits. No one cares for classic cars. but more circuits and new circuits are refreshing and welcome.

Control of the car on the grid as the lights extinguish like in Project Cars to risk a good start for a penalty.

Pre race formation Lap.

Post race Cool Down Lap.

One wish: Give up the license!

[jwl1984 0]

I do like and agree with some of the ideas that people have said on here, the next game should have,

create your own driver,
helmet customisation
custom liverys,
create your own team mode,
contact talks (drivers able to change teams)
Sponsorship to make money to develop your car and buy upgraded parts.
lower racing categories to work your up

[TMDol 0]

1. Safety Car
2. No weekend restrictions (e.g the ability to run full qualy and 50% races like in every other F1 game)
3. R&D
4. Open public online lobbies
5. Your own driver/helmet
6. Contract offers from other teams

So yeah like others said, just bring back what they've taken out.

Yeah, I don't see why Codemasters can't have customizable teams like in Grid 2. Driver Managers were actually pretty common in the 1960s, just look at Bruce Mclaren and Jack Brabham for instance. And some drivers went on to be Team Principals. Such as Alain Prost and Jackie Stewart. Codemasters only got rid of the ''Live the Life, Be The Driver'' system because it was too confusing and counter intuitive, after that, with the Broadcast presentation. Gamesmaster or Xbox magazine said that it was supposed to ''make you feel more like a driver with a personality than a car with a number'', with this Broadcast Presentation system and UI, it makes you feel more like a car with a number. I don't see why we can't have people's comments on your replays instead of fictional Social Network comments.

Codies look als this thread: http://forums.codemasters.com/discussion/11799/post-your-ideas-for-f1-2016-here/p1

More different animation for career mode. More dialog for Crofty and Davidson (Possibly Ted Kravitz or Martin Brundle).

- Too much rain -start with safety car
- Too much rain red flaq
- Someone of AI cars crash their cars in practice red flaq
-  Full weekend weather menu
- Graphical improvements
- TV-broadcast HUD
- Safetycar
- Virtual safetycar
- Practice 1, 2 and 3
- Improvement to physic that it takes care of track condition in practice 1, 2 & 3. Example Melbourne. Track is very dusty and car clean it up. There was rain between sessions so there is might been wet on track.
- Sky Sports F1 HUD

-Career mode on 3 or 5 years.with interviews, padock,R&D...
-More features like: safety car,formation lap,more tv cams,pit lane control.
-Custom camera angle for all camera views.
-Choice of camera in all situations (grid,pit lane,formation lap).
-Quick time event 2 at 5 seconds ~ for pitstop with a moving cam around the car.
-Review the turning angle when a car come and go to pitstop emplacement.It's too rough and abrupt.
-Let few seconds just after an end of a race to see the cinematics.I think the podium come too quickly.Make a focus on the driver.
-Online Coop championship.
-Choice to setup race options for all modes (Q1,Q2,Q3 and not a single lap).
-Better damages.(breaking wheels with lock system who don't tear the wheel).
-Less oversteer.Many corners who don't need this. Visually is ugly.
-An option to set sensibility of controller.

Yes one wish: Drop the license. You do not have the expertise and/or intellectual capacity anymore to do a PROPER F1 game. I had hope back in the day in 2010 and ever since you spiralled downwards (with the odd leveller here and there, but nothing to make me go 'ooooh, ahhh').

So yeah PLEASE do NOT release F1 2016 and destroy this franchise even further. Outsource to Playground Gamers or someone that actually KNOWS how to create a GAME!

I'm just fine with all the stuff that's in 2015. Career and classic content would be rad, but I would rather see performance improvements to have run perfectly. I would pay for that alone again...

[Rancie 0]

I just wish for it to work properly right out of the box.
