Are steering wheel controls better than in FH4?

[sigge]

When i played FH4 the wheel controls were terrible, it felt like i was driving through ice, i had no control of the vehicle and i was crashing every second. Switch to keyboard and i suddenly have full control and i don't crash into a ditch every second...

Is this fixed in FH5? are wheels finally fully supported and able to be used in one of the biggest racing game franchises? I have a G29 so it's not any off brand wheel that would have funky controls.

Yeah I'm curious to know this as well. FH4 was absolutely trash using the G29, even as late as a couple of months ago. Spent too long trying different wheel configurations to get a refund which I'm still salty about.

The games looks good though so i really hope its not the case this time around!

Yeah i had to spend around 3 hours and watch multiple videos to try to get the settings to work but i had no such luck, then i read on a couple of forums and multiple people said FH4 wasn't even fully wheel supported and was meant for xbox controllers... The fact that one of the biggest racing games didn't have wheel support is just beyond me, but hopefully FH5 has some sort of support for steering wheels.

Just play on a gamepad. The Horizon games aren't designed or tested with wheels.

I played FH4 on a full simrig with Fanatec Clubsport wheel and pedals, and my friend beat me, using a keyboard...

I lost pretty much every race. Eventually I gave up and just played with a pad, and hated the fact the game was so much easier to play that way.

I eventually stumbled upon a decent thread somewhere with some dialled in Clubsport settings and it was better, but I could still drive better on the pad.

I really freaking miss the force feedback and feel of the wheel and pedals though.

I used a wheel on FH4 (Fanatec csl elite) and it just barely worked. Had to be careful, but eventually got better than using a pad. Off road/ rally was very difficult. In FH5 (if you get around the wheel related crashes) the wheel feels better than all other forza games I have played (FH3, FH4, FM7) No where near a proper sim, but more than playable. It is a ton of fun honestly. I didn't really deviate from the default settings either. Biggest problem is preventing a slide from the brakes locking up, but a load cell pedal would fare better in this regard. You can always tune down the break pressure to mitigate this.
