Community ManagerCan't stand when you guys do these updates and really I should know better. After this 1.7 update all my custom livery cars I spent hours making are gone. Just like with 23 when you erased all our custom settings to ffb. Why are we your test bunny's to these updates? It's ridiculous. No regard for the time we spend on these games, to have to do it all over again isn't fun. Makes me seriously reconsider and really the game is no different year after year. I'm done buying these new games. Was fine when it was solely code masters, ever since this EA take over. It's been nothing but garbage.
Game is beyond broken now for controller players. They clearly have absolutely no clue what they are doing. What a disaster!
@IanM282Oh good it wasn't just me noticing that I have very little traction now then, what was the patch note? "Updated gamepad settings to make handling consistent and predictable".
Um who tested your patch, Codies?
Because I got none of that effect, if anything it's worse, I ran my setup on Austria, I can only do 1:05.825, v1.6 I could do 1:05.2s and have time left on the table, here I have no idea how to gain any more traction therefore time, short shifting just bogs it down (I know it dulls the revs, but it feels like I'm stood-still). Canada barely can do 1:11.9 on my setup that I went a second faster (1:10.9) on v1.6, why? Because the traction was so much better, now I can't get out turns with any traction even though every gameplay video has magic traction, Bahrain, short shifting out of turn 2, no effect wheelspin with a straight wheel with 10-25% throttle, result 1:30.213, I sweated to get more time, but I could never improve.
I don't get it, I turned up the trigger function to Strong, it has minimal effect from Medium, I look at times posted on the leader boards and I'm disheartened to see players running TC Full indicated by all three green icons going so much faster than I could. I can't be bothered anymore, I tried different calibration settings then went back to ScarDuck14's settings again so it wasn't that either. So very angry and frustrated with this dynamic handling model they have, it just doesn't feel good at all, I'd rather play F1 2020 or 2021 than this, F1 2023 wasn't bad either to be fair, but this one, hmm losing my patience with this game very quick, almost as fast as F1 22
@Rapheal629Personally me and some others dont feel any worse with this Patch. Perhaps sharing your controller settings and car setups you use can shed some light from others too on you?
Also not all times near the top of the leaderboards with all assists on have to be legit
Yup they completely broke the game for controller players. I’m nearing my limit with these guys regarding my patience. You guys give us a game with ZERO customization, horrible handling and you somehow make the handling worse and make controller players have even more of a disadvantage. I’m so sick and tired of this…Can you guys please just listen to us for once. The ship changes one a moth which is the dumbest thing I’ve even seen so now there’s only like 3 different helmets and 2 livery’s and they all suck. You advertise the deluxe edition and there’s nothing to spend the coins on, you make the handling worse every patch, you just say screw off to controller players
