Is Gran Turismo 7 ACTUALLY Better With the Official Wheel?

[@Chris-w-]

As a fan of gt series since the first game,being a wheelchair user and only able to use controllers I’ve adopted to getting very competitive time in the game.but seeing the difference and it being more immersive game play,it bothers me that it’s controller only for me.but I’m 50 now so I’ll blame my times on older eyes lol.

[@louiejenkins6369]

You can map the clutch paddles on the podium rims to be the brake and accelerator

[@23for82bigs]

I swear theres some wheels that have accelerator and brake paddles on the wheel

[@diedforurwins]

Now all I can think about is how amazing a wheelchair sim rig would be

[@JudgeZetsumei]

Get this GT DD bundle and also get the McLaren GT3 rim. That rim has analogue paddles as well as the paddle shifters.

[@ApexCris]

For the immersion the wheel is definitely worth it, but the same way you're used to using a controller, Ermin is used to a wheel. Take these times with a grain of salt, the controller is competitively viable in Gran Turismo.

[@stuntmanshinja]

Even on Logitech g29 difference is like between driving an RC toy car and an actual car. The fact that wheel uses both hands and feet makes it a completely different, more immersive experience. If you can, buy a wheel 👍

[@KemBroVids]

Excellent comparison, as a GT DD owner you absolutely nailed it. For riding, skating or flying, leaning with sticks makes sense, but driving has always been about wheels and pedals. The fun of using hand, eye and feet co-ordination even on console to get quicker. Now with 4k and dd, it's on another level of detail.

[@shant]

How do you do the drift challenge with the DD, its impossible for me.

[@KemBroVids]

@@shant with difficulty. I'm not consistent bit managed to throw down a bronze score. Back off the ffb or it can cause wrist injuries on the kickback.

[@shant]

@@KemBroVids Should not be satisfied with that, we need to raise this issue to GT7 and Fanatec, so they can come up with a fix. It's not normal, i bet i can drift easier in real life.

[@alexmigneault]

@@shant you need full power on force feedback. Let the wheel spin and catch it like M. Drift King and you'll be fine one day...! Just saying, It's very hard to drift when you don't have full control of your car. If you can control trail breaking like a boss, you can take it to the drift after!

ive had the opposite experience actually, for me its nearly impossible on a wheel to trail brake. on controller i learned what trail braking it only to realize ive done it without thinking for the longest time. not sure ill ever grasp it on wheel.

[@jonneymendoza]

I learned how to trail break on ACC on PC which much more realistic and harder than GT7. why? because i cant get a wheel right now as i need to wait for a few things to be put in place in my life. I almost did pull the trigger on a CSL DD pro.. I will wait until xmas time to assest and get a wheel but for now i have been practising and playing on a controller and i am about at an average 5-6 seconds slower per lap vs a average racer on a wheel setup.

[@JEL5150]

Been playing racing games on controller since childhood. Recently picked up a g29 and had it only for a few days before pulling the trigger on a fanatec dd.

This isn't the question you should ask at all 1. Are you a casual racer or an active sim enthusiast? 2. How often do you, or are able to race and practice? 3. How much space do you have 4. Finances? If you are someone that wants to sim race but you don't have much time, save the time, hassle and expense, because using a wheel is like starting from scratch if you want too be fast, if you race only a few hours a week, stick to controller, especially with how much you feel on the PS5 controller. Space, it is so important. I got a Thrustmaster, racing seat and frame years ago when PCars 1 was new, and the space it took up was huge! Even using a wheel clamped to a desk and pedals, you still need to be able too fix it in place, and have room. Finances...... Now when i got the Thrustmaster wheel, T3PA Pedals and seat/frame... it was upward of £600. Things are a lot more expensive. IF you have the cash, IF you have the time, IF you have the space and IF you race hours and hours a week, then yeah... a wheel is immersive, fun and carries with it a level of realism, if not.... Stick too the controller because as much fun as a wheel is, it is also a ball ache.

For the controller people that enjoy racing games but dont own a wheel. I can tell you i went from a occasional racing game playing to almost exclusively simracing after getting a wheel. Got a g923 as my first wheel but found myself wanting more. Got the csl DD and its a addiction now😂. Lots of fun , highly recommended it. If anyone lives near a microcenter in the US they have a sim rig set up you can tryout but it is pretty high-end..like 10k worth of gear lol

[@scottd7222]

Classic story of picking up a very expensive addiction. I'm at the first wheel stage and I'm already craving more.

[@perezp9149]

Same lol

[@beastobob]

I spent the first ~40hrs of my GT7 play time on the Dual Sense controller before making the shift to the Fanatec CSL DD (now with about 30~40 hrs of use) and have generally liked the move to a wheel and pedal setup after playing racing games on controllers for the better part of the last 20 yrs. If I were to compare my times between a controller and the wheel/pedal combo I feel that they are fairly similar still, but I prefer the controller for the dirt/rally stages given the wonky GT physics engine. The only complaint I have so far is that in game menu navigation on the PS5 with the CSL DD Wheel is very slow so I keep a controller to hand for that.

[@scottd7222]

Your story is just like mine. Controller all my life before just getting wheel not long ago. Motion steering on this game is actually really good. I went with t300 and its perfect for navigating the menus

[@MrChocobit]

Same with me, but i’m getting better and better, and it’s more fun. Also being faster now. You need to get to 200hours playtime to see that you will never play race sims with a controller.

[@beastobob]

Oh I have no doubt that increased playtime will see a net improvement in times. I have not spent much time yet on PC sims, but that's just also down to the fact that I have been enjoying GT7 a bunch and have a couple other non sim games I am stuck into like Triangle Strategy

[@imo098765]

Rally games like Dirt Rally 2 with a wheel its a different experience. When you are able to pull off a slide in a corner while being able to control the car, it just hits different

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

For cars with too much Power to Weight ratio is important to get that you should never flat out until you're at least on a high gear. Those cars have too much torque on lower gears. Also learning how to use small movements and tracing the joystick back to center instead of letting go. I still want to see this test with an experience controller player, which none of the sim guys that did those videos over the years are.

[@randomhobbyist99]

The controller definitely has its place, however after owning both the Logitech G923 and my current DD pro. The “wheel” option totally transforms the experience 100x over.

Great great great comparison, I have been waiting for this vid of yours for weeks (since you first mentioned doing it). I just go my GT DD bundle in the mail last Friday.

Spent a for more dollars getting the PS5 compatibility, glad it looks like that was the right choice.

[@scottd7222]

I got a t300rs gt recently but motion steering on the dualsense in this game is phenomenal and was my go to up until. Do yourself a favor and try it if you haven't. Be gentle lay the controller flat preferably with some kind of arm rest or your lap. Give yourself 15 min or so and watch how much fun you'll have. Heck put it in cockpit view and with the hands matching your tilt it immerses you even further

[@natecharleston64]

@@baddonkey75i have one controller with drift and another with a bad R2, i found a local shop to fix the issues on both but the R2 one is persistent 😢

[@rossi_arts]

When I first got a wheel, I tried it out on the Crew 2, which obviously is a very easy to play arcade racer. I really noticed the difference once I tried f1 2020 with tc off like I usually run on controller. Took a lot of getting used to but with gt7 im definitely a LOT faster and smoother, but as soon as any mistakes are made on gt7 on wheel, thats it, race over. Spinning out is so hard to avoid and drifting overall feels very difficult on wheel. However on controller, adjusting to errors and the tail happy nature of the game is a lot easier imo. Drifting is a lot easier too I feel. I hit a full on 360 drift entry clip after a few tries using an rx7 drift setup on controller. Would've been impossible for me to do on wheel. But overall, wheel is a blast!

[@phase_1471]

Exactly my experience. I bought my first wheel for gt7 (a g29). I could get within a second of my old times pretty much straight away but one thing that has never got easier is catching slides with the wheel. I did lap after lap of different tracks with both methods and although I could have similar times on wheel, I could push harder, easier on controller, knowing that if the back end steps out I would catch it easily. Whenever the back end steps out on wheel, 9 out of 10 times it's over.

[@plagosus]

What a great video and amazing idea for comparation. I had pretty much the same experience between the controller and the wheel.

[@SpatialDragon]

I know controller guys that are nearly World class with a controller and some that are as fast with wheels. I am much slower, but never learned to drive with a controller. I really enjoy using my Fanatec CSL Elite withV3 Inverted pedals and the Brake kit. Nerve damage from my military service and the resulting meds make me much slower, but I have a lot of fun. They really need to work on this game still. The Multiplayer Lobby is a hot mess. Not being able to change anything as a host is terrible. Except kicking miscreants, which is great. Having to do single race over and over sucks. We are doing 20 to 30 minute races because it is better than nothing. That is what they need to work on.

Your right about hurling the AMG into corners. It begs you to throw it into the turns harder than you think it can take. It's one of my favorite cars.

[@ApexCris]

This video really needed a control sample on the controller, considering you usually drive on a wheel. Starting on the controller and then going to the wheel was always gonna lend itself to faster times on the wheel. I'm a Gran Turismo 'Alien', and always used controller out of convenience, and it's completely fine. GT7 has some quirks, but in GTS the controller was generally competitive in outright laptime compared to the wheel. The main downside to controllers is exaggerated tire wear in cars with medium to low downforce. In GT7 there does seem to be a sizeable performance gap in very specific contexts - the R92CP License at Le Mans comes to mind, where the wheel is about 2 seconds faster. But in most situations the controller is competitively viable, albeit less immersive and fun. Certainly, if the only goal is to be faster, buying a wheel is not worth it.

I have another problem.. because the triggers always give back pressure my hands are way faster fatigued.. so it is really really hard to stay consistent and precise

[@gnarface3831]

I'm not familiar with this channel but it really depends what you've been playing more on. To me, it looks like you've played a lot more on the wheel and that makes your times faster with muscle memory. That being said, there is something to the "finesse" possible of the wheel and pedals. And on the other hand, there is also something to the ease and comfort of the controller turning by just moving a stick rather than your whole arms. Muscle memory serves the more frequently played input choice. But spending $1500 for a few 10ths is a ridiculous concept anyway. Get the wheel for the fun and realism, not the speed, cause you'll lose to the opposite peripheral plenty of times regardless of what you're playing on

[@gogreyhoundmusic]

I just realized you're the guy from systematic productions. my whole world is upside down.

[@donjezza]

The smile was bigger with the wheel and that was the most important bit.

[@antoniocabrita]

Can you please share your wheel and in game settings ?! Many many thanks !

[@gordongreene6919]

Wheel and Pedals take a while to tune in. I got mine stuff to play gt sport. But it never really clicked. But then I got a set of clubsport pedals and spent the time to set adjustments. Yes stiff brake is way better. I've been using my setup for about a year and I now I play gt7 and everything is better.

[@kevhavard]

I find the steering sensitivity setting a little difficult to get right for pad play on 7. on sport I just had it set to maximum. I’m around 2-3 on this game.

[@kylemanning193]

Why does no one use the controller six axis controls, and turn it like a wheel. It helps a ton

[@kristiannielsen8919]

Next I would like to see s-license with controller 🥳

[@noxskuses]

I've done it on the PS4 with controller. Mostly Bronze with a few Silver. F1 at Laguna, (I think S-7) and the Final Test S-10 were the hardest IMO.

[@NorthDevilll]

The title is quite misleading. GT7 official wheels have an extra "shaking" feedback and the title made me think that this feature will be reviewed. Because otherwise official and non official wheels doesn't differ in any way.

[@llChatOOOOOll]

What is your settings on GT dd pro ? 😅

[@Lorenzovonmatter]

Gt7 is so much better with a wheel! Only negative I see is the rally stages which maybe I'm just not good at all but it seems almost impossible to keep in a straight line.

[@ertugrulbae46]

It's tough to be precise on the throttle/brake input...there's not much room for movement while pedals have a much greater room for movement. To compensate...I think GT7 should stiffen up the haptic triggers. Its slightly too light for precision.

[@XxWarmancxX]

opposite opinion: i turned them off because even the weakest setting made my fingers cramp up and often times the feedback threw me off more than it helped. felt like a useless gimmick that is uncomfortable after a few minutes

[@ertugrulbae46]

@@XxWarmancxX that's strange..maybe you're pressing it from a weird angle. I actually use the feedback to help me out, even for braking. It's not a lot but it gives me some level of feel of the car. I guess it would be perfect if the controller had scuffs which were used as throttle/brake..but I can almost see them being used as gear change levers

[@VelociRaptor18]

Would also be interested in the difference between PS4 and PS5 controllers, for those of us who still aren't lucky enough to have a PS5 or a wheel and pedals. Probably just me being to aggressive but PS4 controller feels more on/off then having any smoothness to the input.

[@Pato-ARG]

yep,im using a ps4 and its just like that ,it feels like if you have a ps4 you need a g29 at least to be fast enough , you can still play tho

[@rdablock]

I wonder if you could make a controller with load cell triggers, the pedals make more difference than the wheel I think

[@wiegraf9009]

Maybe? Would be easier on a ps4 controller because it doesn't have motorized triggers. Check out a teardown video on the dualsense!

[@dominic4414]

Wheels with give you muscle memory that is beneficial for irl driving.

[@the_sergeant6913]

"I've got traction control on 1" zooms in on traction control and cant even see it

[@Ermz]

I only realized the two-thirds title card overlapped it after exporting

[@CamaroWarrior]

I have the fanatec GT DD pro bundle 8nm, LC pedal, and I find it easier to play with the ps5 controller myself

[@atrain132]

For me, when it comes to gran turismo, I'm always faster with controller. Any other game, wheel and pedals. Although I would say that pedals make the biggest difference of all.

[@afif8703]

I was surprised after getting the g29 that I was never able to beat my controller times with the wheel. The dualsense does such a great job with the adaptive triggers to convey a better braking feel than the g29 pedals.

[@thefourfourfour9512]

@@afif8703 yeh i admit i resort back to the controller in gt if you wanna clear some stages or license etc etc. For me personally i cant cope with the dirt rally bs in GT , so i clear that stuff with the controller... weird because i do half decent performances for a newb in stages on dirt rally 2 . The biggest thing for me is proper racing. When you are on the racing line bumper to bumper ...the controller is awful. in 25 minute plus races ... like 45 minute sport mode races, the controller is tedious . I believe u can set a faster hot lap on a controller ...but 45 minutes in... the controller is not gonna be fun or getting quicker and quicker.
