PS5 Force Feedback Dropouts (controller & wheel)
Hi, I’m getting in touch to report a huge issue with force feedback switching off during races that only seems to affect PS5 users.
This issue is only occurs in multiplayer races and on any tracks, and appears to happen at random. On some occasions force feedback and vibration becomes much weaker than the setting selected, making driving feel very numb and extremely difficult, and on other occasions all force feedback disappears completely when cornering/braking/accelerating and only the kerb vibration remains - meaning you have no feedback on wheelspin, grip or locking your tires.
This can sometimes occur after an event like a safety car coming out, or a collision between other players and on other occasions it can occur at random (even mid corner causing complete loss of control). When you try to fix the issue by going into the menu to switch force feedback off and then on again, feedback returns for a lap at most and then disappears again. This issue occurs in around 1 in every 3 multiplayer races that I do. Very frustrating, especially as in speaking to other players it does not affect PC or Xbox users - only PS5 users across both controller and wheel.
Can this please be fixed as it’s killing the game for so many users.
