23 (FFB) is so broken, who else has gone back to 22 sadly?

Basically the state of this years game and the FFB (lack of) with wheels has forced me to go back to 22, anyone else? 

Having to play 23 with a controller is straight up depressing when I have a rig sat there. ☹️

  • @mariohomohCool, but i'm clearly not after settings, none of those settings help me with the wheel i have on console but that wasn't even the point of this topic, FFB is completely broken when it keeps dropping out mid race so settings are pointless.

    The replies started off with a sarcastic tone and the discussion was taken to a point that should've been discussed elsewhere, i wanted to have a general discussion with people who are having the same issue as me, not be told by people who aren't having any issues what to do.

    Plus its not a lack of FFB it completely drops off to nothing, it then prevents progress being saved when you exit said race and then disconnects you from online services, how tf is that clipping man c'mon....

    You've also stated you've not got yourself setup for F1 23 yet so you have no hands on experience with how the FFB is right now.

    This whole topic is a mess.

    You're a Champion and should know better.

    How much Wheel Damper would you guys recommend on a T300? Default is 1. 

    🤔

    @BadMayh3mIts not though is it, i'll be looking to get this deleted soon.

    You lot are just being sarcastic about there not being issues with FFB when clearly many are struggling to play the game we all enjoy.

    @matty0blobber 

    What have been discussed here:

    • Wheel torque, peak torque, holding torque
    • Wheel weight
    • FFB signal output and clipping
    • FFB linear scaling
    • Purposely clipping of the FFB signal as to have a wider range for useful FFB

    Mostly on pages 2 and 3

    If any of those felt too alien for you, I'll happily give it another shot at explaining them and the reasons why you or anyone else could feel a "lack" of FFB. And chances are better users will probably chime in to share their useful experience and knowledge too, like Greco did.

    I hope you realize though this is a public forum, not an individual request or ticket resolution process.

    Some degree of banter is unavoidable and can obviously be kept in check my the mods, but discussions naturally evolve and not even the OP gets to dictate it. You sharing your experience with the lack of FFB on here is bound to get a reaction of those that do get a fair deal out of the game in its current state, and users gathering to discuss the potential reasons for that divergence is the quintessential part of a public board.

    Hope you get the right message out of it and actually get to tweak your settings as your short description suggests you're getting FFB clipping, as discussed in here.

    @matty0blobberI have hands on experience with F1 23 as my Beta Tester badge clearly shows. Also my many posts regarding FFB and handling on the beta forums that your can view if you took part on the programme 😉

    The issues you're referring to are bugs.
    The thread would have taken a wholly different direction if you had made yourself clear from the get go instead of instigating what many took as a general conversation, in the general discussing board, about the general state of the FFB in F1 23 - all evidenced by the 4 pages long discussion on all things FFB.

    Hope you come around and realize what went on and why, and how many of the posts here can be helpful for the community as a whole, and chill with everyone else a bit.

    Settings were shared, tech was broken down and general guidance for setting it simracing equipment properly. Even David Greco, the man behind the physics and handling of this franchise for more years than I can count, was selfless enough to log in and share his take and advice - the very man that crafted the very FFB system you're having trouble getting to work properly was here giving advice on how to get the most out of it, perhaps give it a shot once the wheel issues get patched out on whatever platform you play on.

    Have a good one ✌🏼
