F1 2022 Fanatec Lag

Product: F1 22
Platform:PC
Summarize your bug Hardcore lag and insane wheel violent reactions
Which area is the bug/glitch in? TT
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Using Fanatec Wheels with FFB On . It does apply to other modes as well , not TT only
What happens when the bug occurs? Extreme lagging when FFB of the wheel activates , it is also mentioned here : https://forum.fanatec.com/discussion/26249/solved-f1-22-pc-extreme-lagging-when-ffb-activates ; https://forum.fanatec.com/discussion/26258/f1-2022-lagging-problems ; https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/F1-2022-freezes-with-Wheel-and-Pedals-Fanatec-PC/td-p/11594526 . I can not connect my pedals via their cable to the wheel and I am using the USB only . Please fix this USB issue !
What do you expect to see? The game working normally perfectly fine . This needs to get fixed ASAP . I can not play the game with my steering wheel and pedals .

Dear developers , 

Please people who have Fanatec products have big problems when playing the F1 2022 game ( I saw that other people who use Thrustmaster or Logitech wheels also have this problem but

not as much ) . The Fanatec products produce lag within the game and it it literally unplayable . People say it is because of the FFB of the wheel .

I have also tried everything from these websites and nothing worked out :

https://simracingsetup.com/f1-2022/f1-22-best-fanatec-wheel-settings/
 
This is a programming issue and it needs to get fixed ASAP . People who have Fanatec products literally can not play the game and are stuck with the keyboard .

The game works perfectly fine when I shut down the Fanatec product .

Please help !

When the issue is fixed could you post that down below ? I want to know when I can have the possibility to play the game .

Thank you very much !

Best Regards

    3. Wheel makes Game Lag Video - Here you will see the game lag because of the Fanatec wheel / wheelbase / pedals / usb etc . , the Fanatec product is On .

    BUMP up - Hope it makes the bug list for patching, as I and many others have this issue as well.
    F12021 & other games run perfectly well though...

    Please I have 2 another requests to make .

    1. There is another problem with the Fanatec product . My CSL Elite F1 Steering Wheel is identified as Clubsport Steering Wheel Formula 1 in Fanatec Menu , Fanatec Firmware Menu and F1 2022 Controls Menu which is very wrong . Please talk with the Fanatec team about this wrong identifying as well before making the patch for their lagging wheel . Both problems must be fixed . I am attaching below some screenshots :

    2. I have just installed the latest Fanatec driver ( 440 ) product and I have no clue why is there another firmware update . Is it ok to download it or will it affect the wheel performance ( it can cause bugs I guess ) ?

    Thank you !

    Dear developers ,

    Since I and other players bought the F1 2022 Champions Edition and could not play this buggy game with our steering wheel and pedals from 28th of June , could we receive some sort of compensation please ?

    Thank you !

    Best Regards

  • A few updates on this topic :

    I had some free time today to check the FFB issue on my Fanatec product and found the following :

    1. Fanatec FFB Wheelbase On + Game FFB On = Hardcore Game Lag , Violent Wheel Reactions

    2. Fanatec FFB Wheelbase Off + Game FFB On = Hardcore Game Lag , Normal Wheel Reactions

    3. Fanatec FFB Wheelbase Off + Game FFB Off = Game Lag , Normal Wheel Reactions

    4. Fanatec FFB Wheelbase On + Game FFB Off = Game Lag , Normal Wheel Reactions

    My conclusion is that the FFB is not entirely at fault for the game lag and violent wheel reactions and that there is something more " unknown " which also cause these issues .

    The game also LAGS , with both Fanatec Wheel FFB Off and Game Option FFB Off , but not as much .

    Please fix !

    Thank you very much !

    Best Regards
