Unfortunately racing wheels are not supported and on PC platforms the Xbox 360 controller and Keyboard are the only supported input devices for Need for Speed Rivals.
Community AdminHi all,
Thank you for the feedback on this. I understand how frustrating this must be, and we have sent your sentiment to Ghost on this. However at this time we don't have any updates on this. When we do, we'll be sure to let you all know.
Appreciate your answering the mail on this. I understand that Ghost are the developers; however the game is marketed under the EA brand. Is EA planning on making steering wheel support a requirement and passing that requirement to Ghost?
Community AdminAh yes sorry, I didn't mean to distance EA from Ghost, I just meant to make it clear that the studio is getting your feedback.
At this time I am not aware of any plans to introduce official steering wheel support. While this may change, this is what I have right now, and when I have anything more I'll be sure to post it.
😕mileylol:This is insane.
They absolutely told me by chat it was coming days ago. They did not say when.
I would love to have something besides a beta copy. I payed for a complete game.
I also miss the manual shifting, I play shift sometimes just for that but will settle for basic functionality.
Fix this incomplete game please!
I will buy more carefully in the future when it comes to EA.
What a joke. EA needs to do way better than this. After all.....they supposedly have been coming out with these racing games for at least a couple decades now. You would think that when they decide to come out with a new game, they surely would make sure that with all their worldly experience, they would inform the developers that the game that is to be developed would have all the necessary ingredients to keep end users happy.
What the hell went wrong here? Someone isn't doing their job. Is it the director? Is it the developers? Is it the QA team? Since I am an IT person, I can see that it is mostly due to mismanagment of human resources. How many external companies does EA need? It is obvious that the production teams do not communicate across all these companies.
How is it that The Run works fine with wheels on the Frostbite 2 engine???? We are now on Frostbite 3. Doesn't the code port over or what? I'd be a seriously pissed EA executive to learn that someone did not request that Ghost is supplied with G27 wheel setups for programming. WTF. I hate swearing but your company really takes the cake on this.
I can see that BEFORE the next racing game comes out, there will be a lot of backlash because of this inferior product release.
You have seriously frustrated your customers. Don't you read your users blogs? How can you forget a damn steering wheel.
