I think some of you need to take a look at your controller settings after this patch. I too felt the handling was terrible once I first played 1.7. Then I went in and adjusted some of my settings again and it actually feels good again. The steering in 1.7 feels less sensitive, so I adjusted that and it opened everything up for me again. Same with linearity. Few minor adjustments there and it solved alot of the poor feel. Don't just sit there sticking to default controller settings or sticking to what you had. The handling changed, so its natural to me that to get it to feel right to you that you should alter your controller settings again too. It worked for me.
The weight/balance still feels a bit off, but that could be setup related too. Keep that in mind as well. But I actually like the feeling of TC in medium. First few laps it feels a bit over powered and like no slip is possible, but once the tires start to wear it's possible again. However when i completely disable traction control and after I adjusted my controller settings again to adapt to the new update the game actually feels good to me with no TC and actually feels playable with a controller.
So before complaining like this so they make more mass changes to the system... if you haven't already go in and tinker with your controller settings in game. It just may make you appreciate it a little bit.
What did you adjust your settings too? Just to give a base to find my own because I didn't play for a few days waiting for a friend so we could do co-op and we tried tonight after doing P1-Quali the other day and racing was painful comparatively due to leaving it a few days.
Not a competitive player so I would like 1.6 handling back because I play career and co op career it's the only reason I own the game 😅
