Community ManagerAfter spending a few more hours with 1.7, I can confirm that it definitely feels better on wheel and pedals than it did before, at least with my personal setups. The underlying throttle issue (lack of RPM response) is 100% still there, but I'm seeing more predictability during race starts (though starts are still tricky due to the throttle response in low gears) and corner exits. Some of the unpredictability comes back when really pushing for quali laps, but I think that's reasonable to expect.
All in all, it feels closer to where it should be for wheel and pedals. Doesn't quite feel great yet, but definitely better than launch.
I instead ask if it is possible to make the changes requested by the great David by September. I would like to see much less grip and all the other balances that need to be done, I really appreciated what David wrote and I hope that the team will take his feedback into consideration already now to improve the game even more. Can someone from the team give me an answer? @EA_Groguet
@atfmarko @GrumpsMcDumps @EA_Vendcera Per previous posts - the problem I was having with random braking was NOT software related - but hardware - specifically the pedals on my Logitech G29 wheel. Specifically there is a piece of hardware on the G29 called a potentiometer. There is one on each of the pedals (accelerator, brake, and clutch). Apparently when they get dirty you can get sudden application of the brake, the accelerator - and in fact it is random.
There is a process to clean them that requires taking apart the pedal base to access the three potentiometers. I followed the directions (from a YouTube video) and this seems to have been the culprit for me.
I have done quite a lot of laps across several tracks and using Iko Rein’s telemetry software I have not seen a recurrence of the brakes randomly coming on as I did before.
