It is actually working correctly. Krita's brushes are categorized in so called "engines", every engine has different code and different set of options. Basic-1 brush uses "Quick engine" (you can see the lighting bolt underneath the brush preset name), which has very limited set of options to make super extra fast (you can make it very big and it will still be nearly instant). If you want to have more options, just edit a brush like Basic-2 Opacity, just disable the Opacity being affected by Pressure to have the same effect as on Basic-1. You can also unhide the left panel of the brush editor and press the [+] button underneath all brushes, and choose "Pixel", that will create a new brush preset for you that you can edit and save.
