Re: We need steering wheel support for NFS Payback!

I, (we), heard about the update but until all players can enjoy their wheel hardware in game this post will not have a solution. The 2015 game also had a few official supported wheels but most players can play with others wheels as well. I can play that game using Logitech Momo Racing wheel with a few tweaks on menu settings.

I want to thank you all players who vote this topic and similar topics from other players as well.

Please check my last topic and also other important topics from other users that try to make this game better.

    Why didn't these guys just tell us they were working on it and it will be coming soon...crazy.

    I am lucky enough to have G29...the other wheels will probably come soon also.

    Because EA.
    To be honest I don't know if there is any other car game in the world who had steering wheel support as an update but... nevermind.

    It appears there is is now support for 2 steering wheels...

    the Logitech G29 and Logitech G920

    THAT'S PATHETIC, WHAT ABOUT THRUSTMASTER T300 AND T500?

    It's beyond belief they released a racing game without steering wheel support in the first place and now they support 2 wheels.

    Someone, please tell me I'm wrong.....PLEASE?

    Maybe it was a last minute thought.

    It's shocking and to be honest, I'm surprised they don't realize how many customers they are losing, but I bet if you showed them the approx £££'s they are losing, they would soon listen.  

    Games like Project Cars 2 and Forza support the majority of wheels from day one, they realise that racing games are best placed with a wheel, then you have EA and Ghost Games...not sure what planet they live on. Maybe they need to have a R&D team to start asking questions to the wider public.

    Games you mentioned are more like as simulation racing and this is why, (I guess), the players are set apart in 2 categories: Racing and arcade racing. And this is where the problems are getting started. There are CAR game players like you and me who have enough brain cells to understand any type of CAR game is meant to play with an steering wheel and there are occasional "motherlovers" who say "heeey! an arcade racing is just for gamepad controller".

    The game plays wonderfully with a G27 wheel. Took a chance and bought this, applied the x360ce 64 bit version and it worked right out of the gate, No FF, or h-shifter, but still much better than me trying to use a controller which i am horrible at. Wonder does this update work for g27 since it is close to the g29 in design. If not still have the x360ce to rely on.

    In your Logitech Gaming Profiler software check "Use special steering wheel settings" and "Let game adjust settings"
