NFS Unbound wheel and clutch/shifter support
Hey y’all! I’m extremely new to sim racing and I was getting some games that are compatible with my sim rig on PlayStation, I really want to get Unbound but NFS Heat doesn’t support clutch and shifters and I was wondering if that’s the same case with Unbound. (Talking about h-patter shifter since I have G29.)

What happened to Toyota and Audi
So, I checked the car list and I'm still curious why Toyota and Audi were not there. It seems like Toyota is still in the mind of "illicit street racing", or maybe because GT Sport had a contract with Toyota, which means that Toyota can only add their cars only in GT Sport, and can add their cars in other games if GT Sport allows it, but I think GT Sport doesn't allow Toyota to be in NFS because GT Sport might have some rivalries with NFS, that's why they only allow Toyota to add their cars in other games like Forza and CSR2 and movies like Fast and the Furious. And besides, why the heck did GT Sport even made a contract with Toyota so they could own the rights of Toyota just to bring Toyota's cars only in GT Sport!? And besides, GT Sport does not own these cars. Only Toyota does, and GT Sport even made a contract about it?? How stupid Gran Turismo! It's all your fault why Toyota is not in NFS! And it's Toyota's cars, not yours! How could you make such contracts just for Toyota to only be in your game but not the other games!? SHAME ON YOU GT !! 😡🤬 And thus, why is Audi not even in the game?? This problem is getting real bad. If they were in Payback and Heat, why did they quit?? Probably their reason again is street racing. Well, I don't know. But like other cars, which is why they weren't in Payback and heat, like Bentley, BAC, Ariel, Caterham, and other cars aside from Toyota, is probably because of the reason of street racing, which Toyota claimed, but it was the stupid Gran Turismo who made a useless contract with Toyota to own them, that's why Toyota deleted their tweet on street racing. Good thing Bugatti returned. Idk about BAC, Ariel, Caterham, Bentley, and etc. Anyways, Have fun guys and enjoy your day. 🙂

Shimizu OVERPOWERED.
Anyone else having a problem with the AI Shimizu? The other AI and myself are consistently a minimum of 700 yards away from him in every race. I’m 2 days away from the grand and I’m concerned that I won’t be able to beat him. I’ve spent all of my money on every car I can think of to try and combat this issue but nothing is working. I’m still getting beaten every single time.NFS Unbound Car list

Difficulty needs to be patched
Not one to complain, as I’m enjoying the game otherwise but the game is incredibly unforgiving on “relaxing”. It’s literally a fight for your life to make 5th place. Some AI are impossible to beat which should not be occurring on what is supposed to be the easiest difficulty. Relaxing feels like challenging at this point, idk how much devs have played into it but there’s definitely something wrong with the difficulty as the game stands.
