Keep your hands on the wheel maybe? Don’t say that you did either cause if you have a firm grip on your wheel it doesn’t just randomly spin violently out of your hands. Just like all the YouTube videos of peoples wheels oscillating like crazy with no hands on the wheel.
Ok, what's your point? There are already warnings within the instructions of the wheel itself. IF, and that is a big IF, PD somehow feel responsible people losing their arms due to FFB on the Fanatech, then add a warning beofre the game starts rather than completely Nerfing a $1,000 wheel set-up from the people who paid $1,000 for a wheel specifically for the reason they're Nerfing it.
Motorized garage doors and electric windows aren't designed specifically to offer resistance to people using them. The FFB on the Fanatech is literally a feature of the wheel. A FEATURE. People are paying extra money for it.
it has been killing me to see the argument for 'this is true' amount to 'well Polyphony said it'. especially considering that if this is some new injury risk, they're admitting that the GT wheels they're selling were not tested on the game. or, better, that they had no idea what the capacity of the wheel was to begin with.
They are not. But to stop virtually all force feedback on a premium force feedback wheel is like putting a 20mph speed limiter on a Ferrari so the driver can’t injure himself. Not something I’ve seen before. The wheel will pass all the tests you mention and be certified as safe to use but an 8nm wheel should be allowed to be used at 8nm. Otherwise it shouldn’t be on sale.
I was stationary, using the menu.
So if I drove at 100mph in a 30mph limit, hit a car your family was in and killed them all, you wouldn't think I should be liable, you'd be happy to accept it as an accident?
Ah. You had me going for a while. Nicely played lol.
I was saying there are already warnings for flashy screens... to which you said those warnings are important. Ok, I never said they weren't. I was using that as an example of what they could've done, rather than what they did regarding FFB. If they're that worried about people losing limbs to their wheels, put a warning at the beginning of each game launch the same way rather than completely Nerfing peoples' rigs. IMO, still overkill as the manuals on the wheels themselves have said warnings already.
if i play for two hours in a day, my unrepaired meniscus injury from 15 years ago starts to bother me. i also require wrist supports if i play for very long. when i was using a controller to grind, sometimes my thumbs would get really sore.
It doesn't make PD's decision right but I agree with you. Here in America "parenting" has disappeared. Give the kid a PS5 and a wheel and there's your babysitter for 6 hours. Meanwhile mommy is in the other room swiping on tinder or making some absurd tik tok video trying to find the next dope to bang her. It's sad. Then, the minute little junior runs to mommy crying that his hand hurts, she sees $$$$ and sues.
Just don't eat any Tide Pods for a snack!
There goes my BS detector again. So you're telling us that the wheel suddenly span violently whilst you weren't racing/moving? Strawman.
I wonder if ffb in GT7 will be like the penalty system in GTS. PD will keep swaying between 2 extremes, and when they get it close to perfect, ditch it for one of the extremes 2 months later
They skipped version 1.14 so I believe they found something wrong with it that forced to change it and go with version 1.15. If that was the reason or not I obviously don’t know and won’t speculate.
And T300 if you’re using the SF1000 wheel.
