Major announcement from EA regarding Wheel Support

Everyone that has left a comment already knows that there is no wheel support in Rivals. Everyone wants you to announce that you are working on the solution.....we don't need lip service.....just a patch. This is very bad PR for you. I have noticed that there are people announcing on facebook to not purchase Rivals.....if it really goes viral....it could really hurt the bottom line not only on this product but also future releases. You need to announce this ASAP before people start jumping ship on EA. I know I will never buy any of your products in the future if this problem is not properly resolved. I am only one....but many people do not buy a Blackberry and look what is happening to them. Make an announcement.

    This is what I want EA to do.

    I want EA to at least have an official announcement that they are working on a fix for the game, as well as the issues they have identified and are working on.

    I am one of those people - should they not fix up this game, I am definately not buying another Need For Speed game again. Such a pity, Rivals is such a great Need For Speed game, just the technical issues really suck the joy out of it ☹️

    If they do not fix this - that is the end for me buying EA games (and I have ALL of the NFS series - even the original PC one - and yes I still have it).

    You are slowly killing this.

    NFS has LOOONG left the racing simulation scene behind. They are just video games now. If you want a real racing experience try F1 2013, Assetto Corsa, Racing Room or go PlayStation and get Grand Turismo 6 or XBox's Forza 5 - ALL MUCH better racing simulation games. Only reason I bought it was apparently rival mode is back and all my buddies are hoping it will be as good as Hot Pursuit.

    I'm sure it would be as good as HP if it actually worked!!!

    It's not only a steering wheel support patch that's needed. This game is full of bugs. I've lost progress, the turbo stops working, the online basically has to be turned off if you don't want to be constantly moved from server to server, it freezes my ps3 often... I shelved this game out of frustration 11 days ago as it's just a buggy beta version rushed out the door for the next gen launch and now it's become abandonware.

    I got a message on the nfs app saying they hadn't seen me in a while and to come back to see what my rivals have been up to. Until I get a message from ps+ saying a patch for this half finished game has been downloaded I'm not wasting my time with it.
