new to the game very hard to turn

[ShenFullys]

i just bought the game and i have less that 5 hours playing it and i tried with keyboard and controller but still cant manage to turn when i press the turning buttons the car will continue moving forwards i only tried ae86 on different maps and cant get is to turn let alone drift ...

Try using different control settings from this guide, other than that you just need to learn to drive if you are new to car simulators.

i was wondering if it helps if i buy a steering wheel?

[Frogster 🐸]

Steering wheel and pedals is of course the best way to play driving simulators.

[ShenFullys]

am actually pissed at this ♥♥♥♥ the car wont turn its like the wheels dont work when i am on a corner but when i am on a straight line the car turns fine

[Salamidealer]

Are you driving a car that doesn't have ABS? If yes then the wheels may be locking up if it doesn't turn at all. Or maybe you're just not slowing down enough.

i used the ae86 with and without abs and the only way to turn is if u go with 0 and i still go offroad

[nismo]

i drive on akina alot and it teaches me a ton about the best driving lines and braking, if it helps, download the akina map and practice there

in my personal preference, i prefer mouse steering to controllers since i feel more in control of the cars turning

since im in your position with no actual racing wheel to use, i have to use mouse steering but i can turn the car and even sometimes drift the car with relative ease.

since the AE86 doesnt come with abs, the best way to use the brakes is to apply them lightly instead of harshly which the latter would lock up the wheels and make it tough to turn

TLDR: dont overshoot your speed, go easy on the brakes, learn driving lines

Remember that it indeed is a simulator. Some people do play it without racing wheels but it is made for racing wheels and majority of users use a wheel. I'm guessing you haven't driven a real car or have much experience?
I'd say for starters just take it easy, use car with ABS on for now as it can be hard to think about wheels locking if you're still practising. I dont suggest using stability control as it's very unrealistic but if you cant absolutely keep it on track without it, try it.

What's your corner entry speed?

[Canadian Jesus]

It's simracing. You're going to have to learn to drive first. Don't worry everybody was a noob at first. There're rules on how to drive a car around the track ex: not turning the wheels completly in corners, brakes are for transfering the weight, rev matching, how to take an apex ... Since there's a lot of them and if you don't have an interest in racing it will be hard to learn them. I higly recommend you to watch videos on the subject. For the hardware part, having a decent wheel is like having sex and playing without is like masturbation. Both are good, but one is clearly superior.

Great analogy!

Try to put Steering Gamma to about 3.12. It GREATLY helps.

I'm in the process of setting up and calibrating my DS4 controller (using Steam API), trying a myriad combinations. But here is a hidden gem I found- an actual explanation and guide to set up controller in AC. This particular post is the important one, but there are a few useful tips on steering with controller also in the thread. Hope it helps somebody else too:

You turn too much.

[Nicotine Warlock]

When coming out of the corner turn it back to the center
dont break while turning
