Re: [PC]Can't Accelerate, Handbrake Stuck, Controller Doesn't Work

Still can't accelerate at all, same issue. Had this for weeks now eh

I have the same problem like some guys here, with car acceleration, it looks like the handbrake is braking the car.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw1QHZjs0Ac This video is example, have the same problem. I have allready contacted support but they don't know solution yet.

My Specs:

Windows 10

Intel Core i5-4690 3,50Ghz

16GB RAM

MSI GTX 980Ti

If you guys are using controllers, just try to clear all the key bindings for steering wheel. (Use the same controller button to all the commands for the wheel in the control options menu)

Hope this works for you guys.

That is no soution man, I am playing on keyboard, I and have paid 60€ for normal game, NO FOR TRY THIS * and it will be maybe working...u now what I mean?

try to disconect the controller and play only with gamepad and them disconect the gamepad and playing with keyboard and i have the same problem with the aceleration. And this strats after your last update

Ok I finally just solved my controller problem. Lots of people have been saying that kicking up deadzone to max works. What everybody forgets to mention is that you need to do that also to the RACEWHEEL settings even if you got no racewheel. The RaceWheel options interfere with the pad options. I guess you could do that in the ingame menu but I just went the long way with Notepad++ and edited those options in the PlayerOptions file under mydocuments. Hope that helps

Thanks a lot brother :D Even EA devs cant fix the thing that u've fixed xD

After 8 pages of options to try and +3 hours later i give up and i have requested a refund, nothing works,
I've seen that intro movie probably 50 times and i haven't been able to drive normally one time. 

Try this... worked for me!

"WHEELS" OPTIONS: Unmap ACCELERATE, BRAKE and HANDBRAKE.. and set them with PAD buttons!

Unfortunately PAD is useless on MENU, and specially when you want to add decals i suggest you to remove PAD before...

It's a bit tricky.. but at least we can drive more easily!!

@xxRigelxx

Thanks for sharing! I hope it helps out our fellow players.

Can confirm! Thank's for this suggestion! Bind all keys to one, so that all are unmaped, and then let just one key maped. Used the "Open Map". Works even for Steam Controller just set Origin launch as Admin, same goes for Steam and then just lauch Origin through Steam. Tricky but it works! 😳😃

Still this isn't how things are suppoused to be... *Edited*

@XIII-1338

This shouldn't be happening with supported controllers. However, unsupported controllers like the Steam one will require additional tweaking from the players side. What specifically is needed can differ per controller.

Thanks for sharing that it worked for you. And.. please don't call us stupid. ☹️

Yeah of cours I thought about that and after I tried today I stuck in Decals Settings. Couldn't go out had to force close the game... Okay then I went over to try it with a normal 360 controller... No luck either same problems... funny is that it isn't recognized the whole time obviously because the tooltips etc. still use the keyboard mapings until I hit any bumper or whatever. Well now I HAVE TO play it with the keyboard and I suck at it. Unless you guys wanna make me an additional gift for my birthday and send me a Wheel? 🥳

I am also having an issue with my G27 wheel, if I set dead zone for brake to 100% I can easily accelerate, but then cannot brake. So this fixes the constant brake problem many others have had but then I have no control of my car. The issue is that NFS does not recognize that there are two axes (one for accelerate and one for brake). I have confirmed this when I try to manually set the Accelerator and Brake pedals in the game: when I press the brake pedal, the game states I am pressing the Throttle. I have confirmed that the Logitech Profiler is not reporting both on the same axis, and disabled all other profilers. I also notice that another user reported the same problem... Ideas? 

@Concision3342

What happens if you set the deadzone to ~10% ?

@jakemanzo563

Thanks for the extra information, that is much appreciated 🙂

I did notice other players having questions about how to unmap buttons, are you able to shed some more light on what you did that during your steps?

hello, first of all i wanted to say that NFS developers are lazy like HELL LAZY.
you got a lot of bugs in the game and all you can do is sending the thrend all over again!!
today is 19/2/2017 and still the game is broke on the PC!!

Hi there,

Thanks for clarifying your issue. And I'm sorry to hear that you are still experiencing it.

Based on what you've said, you most likely already read through the following thread. But if not, please have a look:

http://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/PC-Can-t-Accelerate-Handbrake-Stuck-Controller-Doesn-t-Work/td-p/5229937

The main cause of your car driving or braking by itself conflicting software, drivers or hardware- therefore:

• Plug in only the devices that you need
• Make sure you have the correct software installed
• Make sure that the drivers for your devices are updated
• Try a clean boot to disable any software that could cause conflicts

Let me know if that helps.

OK, nothing is working for this *. I have xbox one s controller and handbrake constantly stucks, acceleration stuck, wont turn. Tried to unplug all, plugged gamepad when in game, nothing works. Is there anyway to make this game work with controller? Not working via cable and via bluetooth. Just cant play * game.

Unbelivable, got game on origin access today and I can not belive that so long you can not fix issues with controllers. DO you understand that xbox one and xbox 360 that suposedly are supported dont work as intended? Handbrake stucks, acceleration stuck, everything is in mess and you cant fix this after all this time and you still waiting for feedback? Are you * serious?

Give us solution for this😠

i'm still having this problem and there's still no fix wth

Yup happy 2018 and i'm still can't play the game with this bug it sucks come on EA i've tried all of the solution and  i've never use any gamepad so i can't do some of the fix
