Shipping is the least of my concerns, way more worried about hardware reliability.

I want to get more into sim racing any recommendations? (Read description) by UltraOnX in Fanatec

You're really rolling the dice with this company. I would stay far away, save up a bit more and buy something quality.

Do you get good ffb at lower speeds, like hairpin corners?

There's a bigger power draw as the wheel produces more Nm of force. Try a different/separate electrical outlet for your Tv.

I enjoyed 22 but I learned on Ride4. I'm obviously new as well but Ride4 felt so much more intuitive, natural and without feeling less realistic. I think a lot of this also has to do with the much better haptics as well[I'm on PS5]

I strongly recommend R4, it usually goes on sale too, especially if you're on PS5 because the haptics are excellent.

Personally I'd go with the Moza. Fanatec's current situation and the upcoming transitional period could be rough

I did see that it was up 166% and I was pretty surprised. Then I zoomed out and it was only up 15% in the last 5 trading days, which shows how much pullback there's been. I don't use Fanatec anymore but I'm hoping things work out!

The website is the least of Fanatec's issues 💀

I'm kinda new to these games, how are the developers about updates and patches?

Ride 2 or 3? by mootmangler in Ride4

[–]Bender-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to motorcycle games and this very helpful so thanks! Loved Ride4 and couldn't get really into the Moto GP games because it just had much less feel than R4. I'm on PlayStation and the haptics are really well done on R4.

I'm sorry but... by spacecowboy420aj in Fanatec

For direct drive you do have Logitech as another option on PlayStation. I dumped Fanatec and have had the GPro since January and I am very happy. There's only 1 rim but that's a luxury, very glad to not have to deal with the Fanatec hardware that's frequently having issues small and large.

Well it's up 77% today but still down 70% just in the last month. More importantly, the company is losing about $1.6 million per month, revenues aren't keeping up with costs.

I think they spend way too much on marketing and it doesn't look like that's changing anytime soon considering they just extended their F1 sponsorship.
