Cars keep sliding/losing grip with wheel

[duderino]

I have a xbox one gamepad and wheel (G920) and for some reason the cars slide and spin out very fast when using the wheel (spend over 1 hour trying differend settings in game and in G-Hub with same rersults). When I use the pad on the other hand, the cars are glued on road even with stabillity control off. Is there anybody who also played the game with both pad and wheel and have the same or different experience???

Ive been using the wheel from the start, same version as you. I have not had any of those issues. Did you calibrate the wheel and pedals? That may solve the problem. I also have my spring setting in the GHub to 20%.

The game uses two completely different models for driving physics. Game pad - even with deactivated assists is easier to play, however not that precise as with a wheel. It's like arcade mode and simcade mode combined in one game selectable through the way you play it. I manage to get around the same lap times with both input devices.

There is a suggestion that there are some hidden driver aids for gamepads:

FWIW, it doesn't matter to me if I'm at a disadvantage with a wheel. I'm in it for my own enjoyment.

The problem is when you're playing online. People can use whatever assists they want online, so you kind of have to use some to be competitive.

You don't "have to".... However, if that person and other people are correct, even without assists the gamepad drivers will still have a bit of an edge all things being equal.

I also look at it as a challenge.

There are some cars that are much much faster in the rain with traction control, stability control and ABS. Or with the magic controller assists. So you basically don't stand a chance with a wheel and no assists in specific circumstances.

I didn't say that wasn't the case. I said that doesn't mean "you" have to add them. It's a choice.

I said that you have to use them... to be competitive. That is still true.
