PS4 I think game killed my wheel!

After originally hating the ffb settings in pcars , I actually now love the freedom of choice and ability to fine tune .
Hopefully with AC we will get a few more settings to tweak and some kind of telemetry screen .....that's all on another post though

 

I'm sure this will come soon. It's a fresh territory for this kinda sim on console.

It sounds like you just want the wheel to be heavy, that way you dont really feel the force feedback.

 

For example yes. It's an simulation why not dimulste real situations for example?!

Because if you have the FFB too strong on our wheels, they cant handle it and will clip, which loses the details of the FFB and physics.
Its all personal preference though. If you like the heavy feeling while turning etc, but dont mind losing the finer details of the FFB, keep it at about 75%
I like to feel the effects of the FFB though, so I set lower to 45%.
Only the high end wheels on PC like the Accuforce and Open Sim Wheels(OSW's) give the best of both worlds. Unfortunately for us on console, we have to compromise something.

 

I'm now around 55/60% just to see will the wheel drop dead like yesterday

I dont think it will drop dead if you have it at 55/60%.
I know that having it at 45%, I can race for hours and hours and it never gets really hot like it did before when I had it at 75%.
It would die in 10 minutes for me when I had it at 75%.
Dunno if its because my wheel is old or if the fan is faulty because it doesnt seem right that it died after only 10 minutes.
Im just glad its fine now at 45%

 

I am at 50%, the rest parameter remained unchanged, except skid FFB 20% and I turned on understeer effect
