Steering Sensitivity??

I find it nearly impossible to steer the cars in this game.  I've played every PC-based Need For Speed title back to the first one so I'm used to adjusting to new physics but this I can't get used to.  I'm using an Xbox 360 controller on my PC and the smallest touch to the analog stick sends the car into a hard turn.  It appears there is no adjustment for STEERING SENSITIVITY??  Any way to manually calibrate/customize steering settings?  Anyone else having issues?  Thanks!  -Angie.

    In case you haven't found it already, look in the Save folder, there is a 13 digit folder inside that and another MUD file inside that, and changing the controls will create another Controls file inside the 13 digit folder which contains the settings you are looking for.

    I know this seems a bit late and odd, but I tried holding the steering paddle forward while playing, and the sensitivity improved for me somewhat. I'm using an xbox controller on a pc.

  • i even bought the game for every plattform (ps3. vita, pc, android).
    the only plattform which was playable for me was Android.
    but the Android version is not the real full game but a real good experience. Good to know that i´m not the only one who have the issue. I like NFS The Run - it was a nearly perfect game. This game was from Black Box Studios - the devs of nfs underground. black box studio is the chance for ea to make a perfect NFS which everyone want to play at release!
  • Not only that Angie,

    1. There's the AI (the artificial intelligence) where cops from (unit 1 the cruiser) Ford 1970 and the Rhinos can catch up on an M3 BMW in an instant like lighting, whilst your BMW M3 Coupe drives like a heavy truck pulling a trailor (wHaaAT THE HECK!!!). I mean, even a 12 YEAR OLD WOULD SEE THAT kind of a CHEATING PROGRAMMING

    3. Cops are 1000x Faster,Heavier than any super car you choose TO DRIVE in that game and they are capable of knocking you off whilst your car weighs 0.001kg

    "Basically, Your car is stripped off by Criterion Dev"

    "You cannot take your car into the battle of the heaviest and the technical strategies of police units from Level one"

    The MOST WANTED CREW

    #Rog is not there (the guy who takes you into the game) and informs you about the pursuit breakers when heat goes up

    #TheBlackList and their challange are not there (prolly they said you will have to make that on your head)

    #Cross is not there

    #Junkman Parts are not there

    #Pursuit breakers are excluded all most everything (I wouldn't be surprise is they take the wheels and tar off on the next one. Lol)

    3. There's no consistency with the AI like how MW 2005 had. worst feature NFS has been battling with ever since)

    4. The nonstop crashes (🤭H Gosh), lack of Steering Sensitivity, The Chassy upgrades, the game has no BRAKES & proper tire upgrades. that should have been added So you can get that perfect timing when you wanna steer into a corner instead of that  stupid sliding mode, which I have no Idea when will they get rid off, it really test everyone's patience. A car just throws itself into that and you no longer have control but to watch until it comes out the end and positions itself back to stealth mode (mind bugling physics for a well competing game like NFS)

    6. The Game Lacked That Real Time Driving Physic. It does not draw your attention. Cars have no ABS brakes...

    Did anyone noticed that the game does not not have the the last chase where the cops lock down the city and you have battle them with your driving skills, weight, timing and your full customized car with JUNK PARTS INCLUDED and speed breaker etc.

    Cars lacked movement or camera movement when you drive.
