OH LORD NO!
Please, racing wheels, Wii wheels, Move...what's next for racing games?
UGH.
*plays racing games with basic controllers*
I fear they'll start being designed with a focus around them types of controllers...Like fighting games and arcade sticks.
you bad-mouthing mah logitech wheels?
seriously, there just going to SUPPORT them as an option, and most of the heavy code work will be in frimware updates for the move, so they basically just allow the motion to emulate analogue input.
Not at all. I know they are optional, I just fear that down the line, they'll assume everyone buying racing games owns a wheel, and makes the game focused around the wheel, making the game harder for those without a wheel.
See fighting games and arcade sticks...Dear god...
High level play without a stick is impossible.
an interesting thought you have.
i wish in this instance i had experience with fighting games beyond smash bros to i could better know your point, but i think i get enough of it.
If they focused on a wheel, that's analog steering, aswell as analog gas and break pedals, shift up/down inputs, all of which are on controllers nowadays.
maybe they could do a realistic clutch, but so few people even drive stick IRL, and i doubt a mainstream racer could get away with forcing it.
sure, the wheel can be more precise, but that's just natural because it has more travel, the trade-off is that it takes longer to quickly counter-steer possibly..?
games focused on wheel-play do exist on the PC, hell, i remember than GT3 had a bit in the manual about using your logitech wheel with it, and i think that's about as far as they will assume and focus on wheels.
