Force Feedback Comparison: Fanatec Clubsport DD+ VS Logitech Pro DD11 Wheel Base in Gran Turismo 7

[quentin32321]

I'm trying to decide between the Fanatec Clubsport DD+ (15 Nm) and the Pro DD11 Wheel Base from Logitech (11 Nm) for Gran Turismo 7 (currently updated to version 1.55 at time of writing). While there are many factors to consider, I am specifically interested in understanding the quality of the force feedback. I've watched tons of videos and read forum posts, but the discussions often shift toward other games, accessories, compatibility, price, the "ecosystem" topic, wheels, customer service, or other related aspects, which is almost inevitable in general discussions, but they are costing me hours of research without helping me make an informed choice regarding the quality of the force feedback. I would like to gather in this post only information that pertains exclusively to Gran Turismo 7 and the force feedback quality of the two wheelbases mentioned above. Hopefully, by staying focused, the discussion will be helpful for anyone considering these options. It seems that Logitech's full force feature is indeed implemented in GT7, but it worsened after patch 1.49. On the other hand, Fanatec's full force feature had not been implemented at the time of writing.

If you've actually used either the Fanatec Clubsport DD+ or the Logitech Pro DD11 Wheel Base in GT7, could you please share your thoughts on the force feedback? Specifically:

• Detail / Feel: How well can you feel the road, tire slip, and the car's weight shifts? Does it feel like you're connected to the car?
• Fun / Immersion: How fun and immersive does it feel?

Please, only reply if you have direct, hands-on experience with at least one of these servo bases mentioned above in Gran Turismo 7. Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Logitech has trueforce which in my opinion greatly enhances the experience of ffb. I think fanatec has a similar feature but for whatever reason gt7 has not implemented it yet.

This is a good point. We are still incapable of an apples to apples comparison.

Also. Yesterdays patch. People are having first impressions and comparing. Soon opinions will form. Then adjustments. Maybe a few revelations..who knows. The last adjustment comparable occured in July. It may take some time to digest.

That said. Today, the DDx feels pretty good.
