FFB/Vibrations vanish mid race on ps5 with dualsense controller

Hello, so I don't understand why i am getting this no ffb/vibrations bug randomly or what could be causing it. It's definitely not the controller as I've had this happen with 2 different dualsense controllers on PS5 pro. This has been happening frequently since the launch of early access and is getting extremely frustrating.

This makes braking or getting on throttle extremely difficult. This has not happened to me in offline modes but only in online sessions regardless of it being 5 lappers or a 50%. It's weird because I can still feel off track vibrations/getting on kerbs (not as strong as normal but very lightly) but all vibrations/ffb of braking/getting on throttle just vanishes. no other devices are hooked up to the system besides just the controller turned on and once it happens only way to fix it is restarting the game.

Considering league racing mainly does 50% races if this issue persists I fear I may not be able to properly partake until if/when a fix for this weird issue happens. Never had this issue in any other F1 game with controller losing vibration (F12012-2024) and have really been enjoying F1 25 but this issue has made me concerned for longer distance races.

  • Every so often I check the reported bug investigations thread and see nothing about this issue. PLEASE look into this as it still is very much a on going issue with controller 

  • Could be controller running low on battery I had it happen to me when low battery for my x box controller pops up. You just don’t realise until you next ride over a curb.

    It’s crazy that they seem to care so little that they don’t even try to patch that. They probably would make it worse anyways. For me it seems to be bound to some tracks as well. I’ve had it in Spa, Jeddah and Australia. Also only online. I’ve tried to learn to drive without it but I nearly lost all interest in even playing because of that. 

    I hope they will fix this at some point. Would show how little they care about the players if not imo.

    It’s not, low battery makes it more likely to happen but even with a fully charged pad I lose force feedback frequently in online sessions. It’s also not consistent, sometimes just braking feedback turns off sometimes just throttle sometimes everything bit kerbs and sometimes just everything basically.
