I know, why they should listen to us. Game is dead for controller players. I'm back to F1 22
I mentioned this in the "petition" topic, but I think some of you should go and adjust your controller settings again, in particular the steering ones. I felt that after this update it was terrible like many of you. It actually felt to me like the car wasn't responding to my steering and It felt like they adjusted the steering sensitivity and pedal/trigger sensitivity to help controller players. So if it feels they went too far, go into your controller settings and adjust them to your liking.
I did this and it's a night a day difference for me. I actually can play with no TC on and enjoy the game. If I'm on the throttle too hard, I can spin, but I can also feel where that point is. I think I need to still adjust my steering a bit as it seems too sensitive for me now, but i think rather than just taking to the boards to complain about the new handling all the time I think we need to also look at the adjustments we can make to our controller settings and driving style. I have found that the tweaks I made have actually made driving/handling with no TC on and a controller in my hands feel pretty good now.
Also keep in mind your car setups will factor into this a bit too. Just a couple of things to think about if you haven't thought about them already.
The bottom line is 1.7 is a complete and utter disaster compared to 1.6. I can throw an infinite amount of various controller figurations at it, but the net results are just complete garbage.
Monaco is nothing short of a absolute shambles! You turn in to the exit of Tabac and the car is absolutely atrocious. In addition when getting on the power exiting the Loews hairpin the car pushes you towards the barrier with a staggering amount of understeer.
What annoys me so much is this latest update is supposed to improve the control and feeling for pad players. It's quite clear to me that this is wasn't fully tested along with everything else they churn out.
Can I get rid of the sensitivity of the front end? Yes by increasing the rear ride height or rear wing to excessive levels, which in turn makes me so much slower.
I am absolutely flabbergasted that they released a patch to improve this calamitous disaster and made it even worse.
And before anyone says it's setup, I've been playing and setting up F1 cars since Geoff Crammonds GP series and raced in leagues for many years at a very high level.
Beyond poor!
