What controller do you use(if you use one)
Im curious to see what everyone is riding out w/ & why etc..

~I used to use the Xbox One & then the ELite and then i discovered my holyGrail. A year later when i decided to hook up Xbox360 again
and saw my shiny looking Purple Xbox360 'Chrome' controller.
"Chrome" highlights the model of that controller.
and the buttons have resistance/pressure., i like this.

My daughter uses Xbox One mini(wired)..
I'll admit it= The Mini feels good in hands...

alright richguy.
Thanks for pissing on the peasants..

~I have a Thrustmaster Hotus i think.
I got it for X-wing or Elite Dangerous & some STarWars game a few years ago and did't use it because it fealt cheap or i struggled with it..The struggle was 100 on me..
~Playing ATS and pretty soon ETS2 =i've been thinking about getting a wheel setup...
***What is a good wheel for a beginner on a budget???
WOW THE FERARRI599 is awesome!

I use a PDP legendary collection, Deliver of Truth controller. Long ass name for a wired xbox one controller with removeable face plates. I choose it because it had like a 12ft+ usb cable and had additional swittches on the bottom side I use for things like the Jake brake etc. Kinda like the Xbox pro controller but they are rocker switches instead of paddles. Almost forgot it alaso has a headphone jacl built into it using mini 3.5mm jack so is earbud compatable

As I mainly play alot of iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione (though that is slowly changing as i get more into ATS and ETS2) my gear is more aimed at that.

Fanatec DD2
Fanatec BMW wheel
Fanatec V3 pedals
Fanatec Shifter
8020 rig

Ordered and waiting on:
Derek Spears Design Race King button box (2 weeks to go )
STG 18sp Shifter (still like 5 months to wait :( )

Logitech's G29 with wheel, pedals, and H-shifter, all mounted on a stand:

Works fine. Certainly better than steering with the keyboard. :steamhappy:

keyboard with all truck and trailer settings set to the left minus brakes which are at 25%, I love wasting one hour doing a WoT contract driving like if I was sitting on a Subaru 22B, do the impossible, reach the destination with only 1% cargo damage, slowly hug a freaking traffic light pole and flip over

I was using an xbox one controller but got bored after a few hours of the game.

Just picked up a cheap Thrustmaster wheel (TMX) so giving the game another go and it's much better.

I'm kinda bummed. I have a R270 Racing wheel made by some company named "DO40", has everything you could want, and pedals. Pedals work fine in ATS, but the steering in ATS is horrible. No matter what settings I put it at, I have to turn the wheel almost 180 to get a slight turn, even on 100% sensitivity. And then when I do, I oversteer. I tried looking for mod but none of them changed anything. I guess I'm kinda screwed with this one. Works great for my Forumula 1 2012 game - very sensitive steering, just not in ATS. Any recommendations?

@jason does it come with software? You could see if it has settings there.

Xbox controller and does the job well enough. Got a baby on the way and the missus would never allow me to spend the dosh on a good wheel now.
But I'm a Flight Sim fan too and what I have got is a Thrustmaster HOTAS. Read that someone tried that with ATS/ETS and it worked surprisingly well, so I might whip that out and give it a try when I get a chance.

Jason look into your WHEEL settings not in the game the software for your wheel as (Tyr stated). My G27 had to be corrected there first before I was fine with the way it is now. I have it completely tuned in ...
