Gran Turismo 7 is an incredible roller coaster. From afar, once I concluded the GT DD PRO review and in the face of the game’s constant changes, I chose to leave that environment and watch with despair the ups and downs that the community endures at the hands of overly conservative unilateral judgments.
Polyphony Digital appears to have opted to lessen the FFB of the steering wheels in this current version, particularly those with a bit of a kick, such as the Podium, GT DD PRO, and T-GT II. What prompted this decision?
It appears that some combination of vehicles and events may cause certain Direct Drive bases to oscillate violently, potentially injuring some players. Because the Gran Turismo 7 community isn’t used to simulation, it’s understandable that the creators were scared off by a few hundred complaints from fools (no need to soften the phrase) concerned about their safety.
The issue is concerning on many levels, because with the proliferation of Direct Drive bases and the current (and stupid) culture of always blaming others, we have already seen in forums (including iRacing, which is supposed to be the most mature site) and websites users purchasing very powerful bases and asking simulator developers to reduce the FFB so they do not harm them.
So we’ve arrived at a point where even things that have passed all EU safety standards (which puts them closer to toys than industrial equipment) are being questioned by the matching ration of persons who need to be constantly watched and have a pain and stress tolerance level of 0. Everything is too tough for them, everything is too hazardous, and everything moves too slowly. The world must be toned down, and the rest of the population must submit to their wants, since society owes them something, and it owes it to them now, in their thoughts.
We have a terrible problem, so bad that it is not only important to publicize it, but it also creeps into the most inaccessible places we can fathom.
A solid beginning point for the GTWS’s initial phases, which began this week.
PS: Polyphony Digital’s communication staff was unable to address any of these things until it was discovered that there was something weird with FFB in the update. There was nothing out of the norm.
You can try new configuration from this GT Planet post to attempt to solve everything.
See you on the track!
I have a thrustmaster tgt2 and I can hardly get enything I can’t feel the curbs no understeer oversteer I can’t lower the rotation in the drivers.i take it you can adjust things in the menus on dd wheels
There’s only two sliders, check you are maximizing both to see if you have a better FFB.
