Inconsistent force feedback when using a controller (PC) In testing, this problem seemed to affect older controllers only. In order to fix this, the resulting effect would break features of newer controllers. Therefore, a decision was made not to make this change.

New Community Manager | EA_Kent
Morning Racers! Hope everyone is settling well into EA Answers HQ, have seen some familiar usernames in the chats. I’d like to take this time to introduce you to @EA_Kent , who will be taking over most of the F1 Community Manager duties from myself after the launch of F1 22 alongside other members of the EA Answers HQ team. @EA_Kent brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise across a host of EA games and has over 3500 solutions offered on EA Answers HQ. He will also be receiving a full induction on the F1 project by me, so he will be fully up to speed on launch. He will also be joined by our Codemasters moderator icon and my Forum Championship team-mate (mostly so we avoid driving into each other every week – those who know know :P) @up100 who will continue to provide his excellent support and help across EA Answers HQ. For those who are interested, I am remaining with EA/F1 in a ‘Player First’ role within the developer team, so you can cancel the 'Barry's finally gone' parties you were arranging. I’ll still be occasionally visiting the forums, as well as other channels, and may well see you on track! I’d just like to say a short thank you to everyone I’ve raced with, talked to, laughed with, and worked alongside to make the games the best they can be. It's a genuine pleasure and a lot of fun. Remember, I'm not going far. I’ll be watching, always watching :P Please join me in welcoming @EA_Kent and the rest of the EA Answers HQ support team into the F1 community. The floor is yours…

Product: F1 22 Platform:Sony Playstation 4 Summarize your bug The game is crashing/freezing on PS4. The screen just freezes and the engine sound can still be heard. The error code is (CE-36329-3). This has occurred twice in a few hours of play. Which area is the bug/glitch in? TT How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%) Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? PS4 game freezing on both time trial and a general race. What happens when the bug occurs? The screen just freezes and the engine sounds can still be heard. What do you expect to see? I hope this can be resolved as soon as possible with a patch. The screen is freezing and the engine sounds remain on. This is occurred twice in just an hour or so of playing. I had to come out of the game completely and restart it. The error code is (CE-36329-3). This occurred during a time trial at Silverstone and a 50% race.Controller Force Feedback issues
Product: F1 22 Platform: Steam-PC Summarize your bug After speaking to various Controller players across all consoles/platforms we have all said the same thing. The FFB feels like it is glitched or something along with lines as there is pretty much no feeling of the car at all (the turning feels very light, no vibrations). Would appreciate if you guys could look into this, as its making it really hard to drive or feel the car even on maximum FFB settings Which area is the bug/glitch in? TT How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%) Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? If you compare the FFB from this game to the last few games you will be able to see the difference easily. What happens when the bug occurs? It's like there is no feeling or FFB when braking or accelerating. Which makes it really hard to drive. Even when I put it to 150 FFB, it still feels the same and has the same issue What do you expect to see? Force feedback when braking and accelerating, and feeling resistance when turning. Even over the kerbs and stuff it still feels really weak and hardly there at all. It happens EVERYWHERE (career mode, online, quick races).F1® 22 Is Here | Released July 1st, 2022
