Force Feedback FFB Failure (csl-dd)... Any Help Out There??

I may be new at finding answers in this forum so forgive me if this has been answered and please direct me to the answer.

I am at my "Breaking Point" with this FFB failure issue. This morning while attempting play, during mid-race the FFB absolutely, positively kicks off and will not come back on until I totally restart everything. THREE times this morning, and seriously folks it is essentially impossible to achieve anything.

And not just this morning my friends, but everyday that I find time to sit and attempt to enjoy one of my few hobbies in life.

I paid for the early release of this F1 23 and it has been nothing but frustration for me personally. I try to overlook and start again etc. etc, but this is the definition of insanity, because nothing changes. 

What makes this even more difficult is that I have no idea if this has solution, or is a solution in the works, or is this the best it is going to get?

I fill out bug reports and get no response. I google for answers and find none.

Am I an Island here?

Am I alone or only one of a few having this FFB issue (especially regarding (FANATEC CSL-DD)?

IF ANYONE HAS ANSWER, PLEASE SHARE and forgive me if the answer is in front of my face somewhere and I am simply missing it.

    Oi oblobber

    Oboyo here.

    I appreciate the response to my S.O.S.

    I am on Xbox Series S

    Today there was an update to the game, but no solution to my FFB issue. Hope is that they are looking at it and will resolve it soon.

    I was in the Abu Dabai stage of the F23 gameplay today and poof...FFB gone...tried to keep going but steering was like slow motion dream sequence....when your trying to run from some evil presence and your legs move like they are hip deep in mud...and you know it isn't going to end well....so...off the game goes.....a lot of fun in that huh?

    O well...fingers crossed

    I'll try not to panic, but can't promise the frustration level will decrease.

  • Product: F1 23
    Platform:PC
    Please specify your platform model. PC
    Summarize your bug FFB and Steering cut out at times during race, crashing me into the wall. Fanatec CSL DD
    What is your 16 digit Report Code?
    Can you please provide the name of your current internet service provider? Verizon Fios
    Which area is the bug/glitch in? Multiplayer
    Did you have cross-play enabled? Yes
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Using a Fanatec CSL DD with formula v2 steering. Drive in any session and steering and FFb will be lost at some point
    What happens when the bug occurs? FFb and steering go out. Resulting in me crashing and getting damage.
    What do you expect to see? A patch to fix this bug

    My Fanatec CSL DD and Formula V2 rim lose FFb and steering for a couple seconds over a race distance. About 10 mins into a session the problem seems to occur. 

    my steering and FFb will cut out and send me into a spin or wall. It only happens for a second until FFb and steering comes back. Then I drive fine for a few minutes and then the whole process repeats, cuts out, I hit the wall, goes back to normal. 

    this basically makes the game undrivable. My drivers are all updated and I don’t have this issue with any other game, only this one. I am on PC.

  • You’re not the only one I also have a csl dd. I experience the same issues. The game is basically unplayable at times because of this. My FFb and steering constantly cuts out during the race. Which results in me crashing. Hoping for a fix soon.

    @RionDoesThings I think they dont realize the Fanatec problem.
    EA guys write only about Logitech/Thrustmaster, no words about Fanatec
  • I have the same problem. FFB constantly dies with Fanatec CSL DD. Worst part about this is it was working without problems and not happened even once since the release but after they introduced one of the latest patches that were supposedly fixing various problems with FFB - since then my FFB keeps failing all the time, during different game modes, different sessions, in different times. The FFB simply completely dissapears and i have to quit the game, restart the wheel and then i can play for a while again.
    (and no, its not problem with my wheel, because my wheel works perfectly fine with any other racing simulator/game.

    I have the same problem since launch of the game with my gt dd pro 8nm and the McLaren Wheel.

    The FFB randomly cuts out and i have to restart my base sometimes the game.

    I posted here 2 weeks ago and the only feedback:  Update your firmware.

    My firmware is up to date.

    I read in other posts that this problem was reported in the beta.

    But no fix for fanatec users.

    I think they simply don´t care ...
