F1® 25 - Community-Raised Issues (Updated June 4)

[CM_TGK]

Hey everyone,

Thank you for your support of F1® 25.

I'm pleased to share that the Community Raised Issues thread for F1® 25 is now live.

For the last few years, this post on the EA Forums has served as the go-to place to stay up-to-date on some of what the development team is working on in relation to bugs and issues raised by you, the community.

You can find that post by clicking here.

The 'Topic Answer' marked below will look to contain the most recent changes made to the thread that are relevant to PC. However, you can set a notification on the EA Forums post to be notified when the post is updated.

The EA Forums are actively monitored for new issues and bugs. We encourage you to log your issues there, rather than here on Steam.

Thank you!

• Misc. | Cars accelerate without throttle input by rapidly shifting through gears
  • ❗Note from Dev: After analysis, as there is no advantage to be gained from doing this (i.e. no exploit) this is not determined to be of concern for a 'fix.'
• VR | No anti-aliasing option:
  • ❗Note from Dev: The decision was taken to remove vendor specific upscaler support for VR in F1 25 based on technical incompatibilities of our VR mode with the latest upscaler models. These incompatibilities could not be resolved, and keeping the options would have given a poor experience to our VR players.
