Wr with gamepad? how fast should gamepad vs wheel be in ac?

Yeah, prolly went too much "french canadian" for the admins.

 

So, in a similar vein can anyone with a wheel beat 2:14.811 round Spa in the GT2 458?

Long live simulating driving a car.... with a pad!

 

Whenever scientist and like convert a real car into a remote control vehicle, what kind of controller do they use to drive it?


That looks like a big gamepad in his hands....where is the wheel?

Check this out:

 

312 laps he's done at Spa (305 invalid) is an almighty amount of kerb mauling / limit finding practising the guys done . Respect to the guy from me he deserves it . Just finished doing 90 laps at Imola in the 155 TI over the last 3 days to try & find THE perfect lap for me & my limited abilities . I gave up before i went mental but got to 20th out of 151 with maybe another half a second to be had if i done a perfect lap but even that would be about 3.5 seconds off WR pace .

 

Now show me how you drive your car and all the other gazillion million cars on the planet.

I also did not know you are a scientist, if that's the case exsqueeze me, you can keep driving it with your pad.

 

Id like to see a pro mode time with controller and no aids.

Not dial in your own temps, use ABS, TC, no damage, no fuel use, no tyre wear. There is nothing sim in that time as every sim feature is off so it really means very little.

Id never turn everything off or drive with a controller, also I dont care much for hotlapping and set most of my laps in races or qualy sessions on a server with all sim features on. I think we are playing a very different game so cant really compare those times to how I play it.

 

You seem to struggle a bit with reading comprehension. See where I said "way too much"? I am well aware of left foot braking (and I disagree that simultaneous brake/throttle is the sole purpose), I am simply stating that you are applying too much throttle. You also seem to do it for every single corner, which to me seems excessive. Maybe it isn't making you slower, and maybe it is. Something to think about.

No, I only brought up iRacing because I found it is basically a requirement in many cases to keep the car from spinning. This is not the case in AC, nor in real life.

 

I don't use aids on the controller. Yes it is harder, but it is still possible to drive. The only aid I have turned on is auto clutch, because it is impossible in assetto corsa to setup a clutch on a controller.

 

And credit to you as Ive seen you drive, I was mostly commenting on the RSR lap that was linked and had everything off and all aids on. I would really suck driving with a controller and there are a few guys that do well as does hman without aids. Not much point comparing the times of others that have everything as that linked rsr lap did.

 

Nah. I right foot brake on iRacing, doing just fine, lol....

 

today I finally gave that a shot, and have to say that at the moment, the difference it quite ALARMING !!!! I'm 2-3 SECONDS SLOWER on the wheel, then I was on the gamepad.
Howver as I said - I did expect it that at first I will be slower on the wheel, and as I get more and more used to it ( and figure out proper settings) I will hopefully start to be faster

my proving grounds was Nissan GT-R at Imola

big difference thought is car control, on wheel I was much LESS LIKELY to loose control, on gamepad I can do a quick lap, but every now and then I do lose it somewhere. On wheel it felt like it was much less likely ( although I still did loose it here and there )

of course on the wheel it's way more fun, way more immersive

 

If I used a pad I would be probably 10 seconds slower then with a wheel. And even if I got used to the pad id still be much slower. Changing will always take time to adjust either way but unless there are lots of aids used a pad will always be at a disadvantage.

Pad users changing to a wheel for the first time will find it very hard too as its quite different even if the wheel and peddles gives more precise control.

Using the same aids then its pretty impressive if anyone on a pad can match a good wheel user. Some cars wpuld be pretty much impossible to even get close but some of the easier cars a pad wont be as big a disadvantage.

 

I'd be much slower with a pad, mainly because I wouldn't even bother loading up the game.

 

Take Lotus T125 S1.
Without ABS you cant brake that good to hold with good wheel driver.
Thats why i loose 1s only about the braking.
Easier cars like all newer street cars or GT3 are better to use.

I don´t get what you/them mean by "wiggle"? pls explain!

 

400 hrs in A.C. with Xbox 360 gamepad.
I bought the G27 and at first I was slower for maybe 2 secs.
In 50hrs on wheel I matched and broke all my P.B. .
Now , 400hrs later, I am 2 ~ 3 secs faster and more important, far more accurate / consistent (and happier).

 

Yes, and everyone is making the point that that´s retarded. If the same guy that sets a WR time with a pad would get accustomed to a wheel, he would*obliterate* his pad time. Because the same guy under the same conditions will *always* beat his pad hotlaps with his wheel hotlaps. Because wheels already are faster than pads in AC, on average. Because they offer a much higher degree of precision more of the time.
And that´s why your idea to implement artificial penalties for pad users is insane.
It´s like saying: "Well, guns aren´t controlled by a mouse and keyboard IRL, so we should make the inputs of m&k users artificially imprecise compared to inputs of light guns and walking rigs."

Spoiler: (These things)

Wow.. old thread.. now the real question: where is PAKFA? @PAKFA are you still around?

 

he said he wanted to take a pause from the forum and AC
