This is off topic, but if that's the case I'd love to hear more about it and I'm most definitely not alone in that! Though there are a bunch of users who casually play the game, there's a good number of legit petrol heads here that will always perk their ears up to hear such stories 👌
I'd love to hear that too.
And guys, don't get me wrong - the discussion is great - but it sounds like you are expecting something that was never intended for this F1 game series - as far as I think of the game in those years playing it. It's like judging a fish by its abiity of climbing trees. To implement this in such level of finesse the game could never be released yearly.
And to say that TC medium players have no part in the discussion sounds arrogant to me. Firstly 'cause splits the players into categories where some are relevant and some aren't. Second because those are the guys who feel the most this misbalance in traction - though they don't necessarily know what's going on and why. So, if it's hard for us, for them it's almost impossible - to the point where they could lose interest in learning and turning assists off and ultimately dropping the game.
@dancrodriguesVast majority play the game using a pad. So game should be optimised for pad as well as wheel. Without those on pad. The game wouldn’t be financially viable
afterall it’s advertised and sold as a game.
- @ScarDuck14 100%. there is no point in optimizing this game for a wheel and not pad. right now its still optimized for a pad, even if its not as OP as last year and previous versions.
BUT that is no reason to not include full potential FFB for a wheel. And if at the end of the day pacegaps are too big then so be it, let pad players drive pad leagues and wheel players wheel leagues. i just dont see any reason why they to this day have not integrated actual wheel support.
Take AC as an exmaple: its obviously optimized fully to a wheel as its a real racing game and the FFB is incredible well and accurate. Yet, a pad player can still almost reach wheel pace and the support for pad is very good too. a member of our league started playing ACC on a pad and he couldnt believe that his controller was able to give so detailed feedback on everything. So, it is possible to fully support wheels and still optimize for a pad.- @Wollcott I’ll be honest with you. Nice to see you’ve chilled out abit👍
