More seat / view adjustments

Dear EA guys,

can we get more scale of driver's seat settings in interior view. Many players use interior view for greater immersion. The problem is uneven driver's eye positioning depending on the car model. Basically I use FOV 35 for a certain group of cars and it works quite well (Clio S1600, Impreza WRC 98, Polo WRC2 and a few others), speed sense is quite real. However, in other cars like C4, Impreza WRC 2001, SEAT Cordoba, 206 WRC, all Rally1 cars and many others, I have to change FOV again to about 25 to get a similar position behind the wheel. Of course, this disrupts the sense of speed, everything happens unnaturally slowly, looks weird. In cars like C4, which is de facto wider than Xsara WRC, I feel like I'm sitting on the back seat of a very small and narrow car. The same with Toyota GR Yaris Rally1.

The solution would be to be able to move closer (sometimes also a bit lower) to the dashboard while maintaining the same FOV, which is currently very limited.

Can you do something about this?

Best Regards

Michael

    Came here to make exactly the same post! Had a drive in the Rally4 peugeot last night and could barely see the road for frequent parts of the stage I was driving. And as you say it affects quite a number of the cars in various ways. It would be a great QOL addition for interior cam users to have what you are saying here! I know the "headcam" view has a small amount of adjustment, but I cant get on with the movement in it.

    In fact, it should be more of a "driver's eye" view, as the seat has limited movement. Some people like to sit closer to the windscreen. It improves the view of corners and the general orientation.

    EA guys, look how it is done in Assetto Corsa Competizione. There you can even move the driver left and right depending on your preferences.

    I made a compilation of several cockpit views. Look how ridiculous it looks sometimes, especially in the C4 WRC

    In C4 WRC which I like very much, but with such a view you can't drive. Almost half of the screen is taken up by the left side window.
    VW Polo Rally2 looks from the inside as if it were a car wider than Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI, which as we know is not true.
    Ford Fiesta Rally4 looks like a car wider than Fiesta WRC from 2017.

    The proportions are disturbed everywhere.

    In all photos the seat position is as far forward as possible

    The game dev could really implement more customization for the view options, just like RBR RSF has. All the important axis, shouldn't be too difficult to implement

    It's not hard, it can be implemented.
    It seems that they have deeply in a... what the community is asking for and what is important from the playability point of view.
