Community ManagerThank you for releasing Patch 1.6.
What happened to the feedback on the reduction of FFB that was raised by many for Patch 1.3? This issue directly leads to the lack of the key feature you proposed, "predictable performance across wheel," which was achieved before the patch was applied.
Why do you create a new thread each time? Handling has been a consistent and ongoing issue since the release, and I don't think it should be divided by patches. If you are going to split the threads, you should include summaries of past feedback or links to previous threads to ensure information is presented comprehensively. Since you named it a "Megathread" it can continue collecting feedback in a single thread, making past information easier to review.
The mega thread for Patch 1.3 is already locked, so what happened to the feedback raised there? Has it already been resolved or disregarded?
The handling changes have likely disappointed many sim drivers. Losing the support of sim users can significantly impact user retention. With the experience from Project Cars 3, it seems you're handling this cautiously, but personally, I am dissatisfied with the current response.
Please provide the current status of the "predictable performance across wheel" feature. Experienced simulator drivers cannot be easily misled.

Perhaps it should be renamed F2 23.
The handling is certainly not perfect there either, but it is far more comprehensible than in the F1 class.
At least the feel for the vehicle is better developed there. You can tell what the car is up to in this and that corner and where it wants to jump to.
F1, on the other hand, is almost like F1 23 again - not quite as spongy, but you can't feel where you're going. Rough or aggressive, but you no longer recognize the limits. In contrast to 1.2.
Aso, new thread, so repeat technical data^^

With F2, 2nd gear often enough does not engage when shifting down quickly despite low revs, regardless of the vehicle and regardless of whether TT or Career. Sometimes you end up in 2nd and then accidentally shift into 1st and over-rev the engine or end up in neutral.
I should be more specific. The driving experience, even in the premier class, is currently pretty good. I'm not really fast with my standard setups and can't keep up with the super sprinters by default, but despite all the inconsistencies, I've had the most fun driving of all parts of the CM F1 series so far, with the exception of 1.2, where the physics were really rough, but the FFB on the steering wheel was really good.
