I'm using a PS3 pad and somehow, for me anyway, this actually works!
In my case, it seems to disable the pad vibrating when you're on the throttle, so the only feedback you feel is from the tyres like with F1 2020 and before. With the engine vibration, I felt like I was getting all the wrong information and it was a real struggle to keep the car on the track.
Now it feels like I'm a lot more in control of the car, for instance at Bahrain FP1 just now, new save, season 1 with a Williams - should be a low traction nightmare for me but this helped enormously. I've been able to increase the difficulty by about 10 clicks too.
This would also explain why I was having such a hard time with F1 2021. Same issue, spinning under throttle, too much vibration causing distorted feedback and the wrong reactions to everything.
Thanks!
Edit: Actually, just realised I disabled Trigger Vibration, whereas you guys might be talking about disabling Adaptive Triggers too.
@s00zsterYes adaptive triggers but you opinion has obvious merit.
Last year the adaptive triggers feedback was strong. So as soon as you felt the triggers stiffen up. Stop pressing. But this year the triggers are so weak in the game. So for all you know they could be stiffening up but you can’t feel it so you keep pressing.
And typically the triggers work perfectly when driving supercars. Codemasters making sure everything works perfect on tue stuff we don’t want it use
@EA_rephii 🎼 can be your hero, baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my very breath away🎼
So because it's a PS3 controller (on PC) and because it doesn't have separate trigger vibration like the more modern controllers, the feedback was being transmitted by the main rumble motor - same as the tyre feedback. Impossible to differentiate the two sets of feedback and worse still, me not knowing that there was another line of feedback for the throttle, thinking it was all related to the tyres. I should really reinstall F1 2021 and check it out, see how a race goes without it enabled.
Edit: Just tried F1 2021 with trigger vibration disabled for the first time and oh my god it's fantastic haha! I could push the car through the corners, felt like a completely different game to the one I had trouble with for the past year. Think I'll get a career started on that for now while waiting for some more fixes for 22.
@s00zsterOne thing to remind for everyone who uses Xbox pads, although not entirely sure if it's actually the case or a unique issue on my side, but the trigger rumbling in Xbox Series X pad is a hell lot weaker than the old Xbox One pad.
I was absolutely shock when I first bought the Series X pad and tried it on F1 2021, the feedbacks were so weak....almost non-existence in comparison with my old pad...apparently I heard it was noise complaints so they tuned it down.
