@STRANY1 It actually “fixed”? I mean, can we get to speed properly?

@CD_CHAOS Not fixed as yet but if you change your configuration settings on the PlayStation dashboard, R2 - X button now your enter button will be ‘R2’ and your acceleration button is now ‘X’. This is a temp DIY fix 👍🏻

    Thank you for the posts, it sounds like an issue with calibration, the game not detecting the maximum trigger pull as maximum throttle. As the workaround shows, the game is picking up a binary input. 

    There are a fair few games where you can play without detecting an issue as they don't require a full trigger pull, but Heat seemingly does. 

    @KILLAZDUDE101 You mention trying a 2nd pad, can you try a system restart from the power menu before trying it again?

      @EA_David I also tried out 3 different controllers and it doesnt matter. Please fix it, the game is almost unplayable with this issue. Theres no way to get REP because you always get busted when the car doesnt want to accelerate.

      Same problem here. Just an opinion but if so many people have this problem I don't think it's an issue with the gamepad

    How do I change the control settings to accelerate with R1?

      PlayStation dashboard, select settings, select ‘accessibility’, scroll down to ‘button assignments’, now change the R1 button to another button type, example ‘R1’ - ‘X’ / ‘X’ - ‘R1’ This is a temporary fix. Warning! Now your usual ‘X’ button will be the ‘R1’ button 😉

        I have had the same Problem with my Xbox elite controller, until I noticed, that the buttons were mechanicaly restricted to 50 % on the backside :D But i wonder if this is possible with a Ps4 controller? It would be nice too to be able to tune that in game as well.

        Cheers
