Huge steering lag even when controller damping is set to 0

It would be surprising if they don't fix it, because 1 in 5 steam sim racers use controllers, which equates to around 1.5 million potential customers.

Category Estimate Source
Total PC sim‑racers 3–5 million Industry estimates
Controller users 15–30% Community + dev surveys
Total PC sim‑racers on controllers 450k – 1.5M Combined
Steam controller usage overall 15% of sessions

Leaving the game unplayable for that audience for the sake of modifying around 30 lines of C++ would be a bizarre business decision.

 

You're new to this forum, so I understand your optimism. But the reality is that developers have been aware of the gamepad issues for a long time (there's this long thread about gamepad issues), but so far none of the issues raised have been fixed. I'd love to have responsive steering inputs like in AMS1 but if they haven't fixed these issues in the past 5 years I think it's unlikely they ever will.

Those options are good, the options available in R3E are even better. But as I've said many times in other threads if they could manage to make gamepad support as good as it was in AMS1 that would be a huge improvement for gamepad users.

 

Did you get any response from the developers @Marius H ?
