Yeah, us Bounty Hunters better set our best lap time at Watkins Glen while we can.

But, can we adjust the FoV?

Why because we haven’t had decent FFB since FM3… Let’s see if Turn 10 gets this right

If its anything like FH4 then they just ruined FM7 too. Lord I hope it’s not.

Not good !

As suspected it’s worse then before the update.

Been messing with the settings now for about an hour and just can’t get it right.
The explanation next to the selected setting isn’t really clear either.

I’ll reset my console to see if that magically fixes it.

I can not believe that there is someone upstairs in the office sitting behind a wheel thinking, ’ hey, this is really good. Let’s release this to the public’

It’s been a good, yet disappointing few years.
Ill ride this one out with some swearing and cussing until a pc is build.

Play with the ffb scales! I am loving it!

A post i made on the content thread.

I am loving the ffb so far with my Fanatec csw v2 and v3 pedals! ffb feels more realistic! The old ffb just felt noise to me! One thing i am trying to get used to are the slides. On one hand the slides are way more easily saved(NICE!), but also seem more easily started. This is the most i have wanted to fire up fm7 and play than i have to date! Hopefully i am not alone in thinking that Turn 10 are more serious about the FM series now than ever! Thanks Turn 10!

Just tried to race today, and my Fanatec CSW is undriveable!!! I had just got it where I like it, and wham, update and now can’t drive with it. Would you share your in game settings? Did you modify any of the settings on the wheel itself?

THANKS and I too enjoy and have a 10 sec drag car.

First impressions are very promising. Will post more but so far so good compared to the last iteration of FFB

If anyone is using a thrustmaster TX can you share your new settings please

I will once I actually get the settings nailed in but sho far the only thing I’ve done is set vibration, centre spring & damping to 0

Great thanks. So far what are your first impressions?

Looks promising but without dialing the settings in I’m not 100% sure. The road feel is the biggest improvement so far.

It feels better yes, but my brakes are going 100% way too easily and because of that, locking up. I removed all dead zones and it’s still like that.

Using a G29, that is not the case with other racing games, as I actually have to put a lot of pressure on the brakes in order to get 100% because of that rubber piece. So yea, something is wrong.

Lower the brake pressure in tuning perhaps?

Can’t unless I install new brakes, but those will break the homolgation PI. Anyway, that’s not a car problem, it’s a FFB problem.

How are brakes going to 100% too easily and locking up the car related in any way to FFB? The two things have nothing to do with each other.

Did you calibrate your pedals properly when you firat turned on the wheel

FFB has nothing to do with brake pedal, you have to calibrate pedals every time you plug the wheel/start the console. Press them as hard as possible once and then PC/console knows it’s maximum value
