F1® 24 - Patch 1.7 Discussion Thread

Hey there,

This morning there was an Online Services Maintenance. You should be able to connect now. Are you still having problems to connect?

@Meza994 Fun fact. Shift 2 I was same time at Brands Hatch Indie in a RS4 as I was IRL in my RS4. But overwhelmingly your right you’ll be faster in a sim than in reality. Other than physics etc. Your more willing to push harder in a sim as you don’t need worry about death and destruction

@ScarDuck14 Exactly! Especially around tracks like Monaco, even the bravest drivers wont risk their lifes in a way some sim racers moves would

@Meza994 I have my controller settings on:
Steering Rate: 160
Steering Deadzone: 5
Steering Linearity: 0
Steering Saturation: 0
Throttle Deadzone: 0
Throttle Linearity: 100
Throttle Saturation: 0
Brake Deadzone: 0
Brake Linearity: 25
Brake Saturation: 0

Strangely enough I found potential at Spain when I had big issues in Sector 3 with turn 10 and 11 being culprits for very little traction, but managing it, it's not too bad. How do I stop the car's rear going away from me in long fast corners, maybe I do turn harshly, but that's what the track guide tells me, hug the inside kerb in 3, cant do it, if I don't turn harshly, I understeer massively, Spain's turn 3, turns 13 and 14 snap on me on entry, even though I'm following what the track guides on Youtube say to do. Maybe it's just me and I need to learn to be more consistent

@EA_Groguet Didn't notice because I had a PS5 System update, it was back on by the time I installed the System update

@Rapheal629 Same pad setting as me 👍

@ScarDuck14 Yeah I mentioned in another thread, I used your settings and 1.7 felt awful and I tried tinkering with it, but ultimately went back to those because I felt no difference and changing it felt worse so I went back to the status quo

@Rapheal629 Okay so first i would play around with the steering rate and wheel rotation settings and possibly play a bit with the throttle linearity again.

For long turns id advice playing with different anti roll bar settings if it feels too unstable id go with higher front values than rear, less difference (towards higher front values) for the suspension can also make the car more stable. Since one of the previous patches the ride height also changed so id advice increasing the ride height, especially the rear for the fast turns as the compression is strongest there.
