Any wheel users feel the difference after the content update?
I use the thrustmaster tx wheel with normal steering. I felt it was much better in stability and catching slides and oversteer. So much so that I had to go back and retune my cars because they were too conservative before.
Want to hear from you guys to see if this is just psychological or not. =)
Well, if it is psychological, then we have the same issue.
I haven’t played f6 for about a month or more, and after starting again the last couple of days, it feels different.
I use it with simulation steering, you might want to try that.
CARS
· Addressed an issue related to angular velocity under specific conditions. This subtle change will be most noticeable for drifters and tuners who prefer to use a wheel.
There’s no placebo effect, though you can believe it if you want.
The update is most noticeable when drifting due the large amount of angle and being able to stay in control when transitioning is now much smoother. The way you’ll see this when racing is if you over correct and try to correct yourself.
All degree of rotation will be noticeable though 900 will probably be the most.
OP, I have noticed a difference and I am very happy with that direction of a fix, though there’s still a loss of FFB when turning the wheel a certain amount when cornering which happens in both racing and drifting but this update has been a good first step
What I feel that is changed is that cars are easier to keep on the track with my wheel, meaning that I don’t spin out in corners or during braking as much as before.
As far as wheel FFB goes nothing is changed there I think.
I also notice and like the change. The ability to catch and correct a spin with sim steering is much better. Its much easier to feel the edge of grip instead of it coming out of nowhere and instantly dropping off a cliff.
Wow I was skeptical about there being a difference after this update. What a difference though. Sim steering feels great with a wheel now. Very impressed with this update. Keep them coming Turn 10!
Thanks for the reply guys. Perhaps I will give simulation steering a second chance now that some of you mentioned a big improvement.
Yes, what I meant was the improvement in control and catching slides. I did not feel any difference in the FFB itself.
On that topic, I find that the FFB changes based on the suspension tuning. For example, on the same car, if you tune the spring rates softer or stiffer, it changes the FFB feel for the car.
In general a stiff/springy force suggests that you have grip left at that given steering angle (meaning you can still put in more lock at that given speed). A very light/loose feel tells you that you have already reached or exceed the maximum grip.
