PS4 Please add deadzone settings

Really liking this sim so far. For those of us who are out competing in real cars every weekend, physics and FFB that are far off from reality can be be painfully obvious. This sim seems to be really good in this area except for the large FFB deadzone when using a G29 (maybe other wheels have it too?) This really takes away from the gforce loading feel as you turn the wheel. To make it feel real, centering force should simply start very small as you move off center, and linearly increase up to the steering angle that gives peak front grip.

GT6 and Pcars with PS4 on this same wheel have very little FFB deadzone in the center in comparison, but they both have deadzone adjustment capability too. Would LOVE to have those adjustments, I'd even pay extra for it, this sim is that good!

Secondary helpful things would be
1) Option to turn on a good rearview mirror that is there for all driving views.
2) Would love love love to raise up the bonnet view, (maybe in car views too) -this would put see the car edges more in view and make it so you are looking down more on the corners, keeping them from just being thin slivers in the distance.

 

This is a real issue. How do we bump this up? I can't drive well because of the huge deadzone.... for people looking for a wheel for this game.... avoid the g29 until further notice ...

 

I agree I would avoid the G29 due to this. I would love to hear from people with the Thrustmaster wheels regarding the force feedback on those wheels. Even better, would be someone who has used both the G29 & a thrustmaster.

 

The deadzone is huge diminishing reality. If you had the option to remove the deadzone would help a lot.

 

I use a T300 wheel and yes, there is a noticeable deadzone. In a straight line there's no feel unless you move off centre. The little bumps and undulations that are present in most tracks straights go partly un noticed, but if you move slightly off centre, they can be felt.
Take Monza 1966 full course, on the second banked turn there's a dip/bump nearly at the exit before the straight. In most cars the wheel loads up then goes loose as the car skips sideways slightly. Then, as you enter the straight it feels lifeless unless you run into the kerb or load the wheel by moving off centre again.

 

That's interesting, thanks for the reply. I think the G27 is a bit worse than that as you have to move it quite a bit off center before you start getting any feel. My comparison here is only to Project cars and GT6 using the same wheel. Those two sims seem to have almost no deadzone in comparison, but they also have adjustments for it. The trade off of no deadzone is usually some amount of oscillation on the straights if you let go of the wheel, but for me that is a trade off I would gladly make if the dead zone was smaller.

 

Totaly agree with this,my g29 on this game has huge FFB dead zone,on other sims this can be adjusted out why not on AC?

 

I thought I'd upgraded from a T150, but the G29 is much worse! Anyone have any settings to make it playable?

 

Also for Xbox of course...

There a large piece of rubber in the Logitech G29/G920 brake pedal that won't allow you to brake properly.
