Its funny how forza has progressed from fm1 where most people used controllers to FM4 and FH where its seperated into 2 different types of drifters... controller drivers and wheel drivers

Personally i started on fm1 with the controller and i always have used a controller and probably will use controller and i consider myself one of the top controller drifters im able to keep up with wheel drivers 90% of the time and pull as much angle

Yet i know people who use wheel and believe 100% that its the way to do it

so heres another poll Controller vs Wheel feel free to explain the reason why you voted if you wish Smile

I tried the wheel for two weeks, too much of a hassle.

I personally enjoy both. But prefer controller. I like the way it is relaxed but I also like the challenge that comes with it. Keeping up, angle etc.

Its also great when prople ask if you're on the wheel when you're on controller it's great how easy it is to countersteer.

I prefer wheel, I just think its more fun. Who knows maybe I could actually be faster/better with a controller but retro hoonage don't care.

Even though I'm on rolla, wheel is better. It's smoother, more consistant, and faster.

I have both but haven't got into using the wheel yet.
Too much noise and I don't have a good place to set up..
Plus I need to start all over if I'm going to use the wheel..

I typically have my vibration and feedback toned down a little. I try to keep it from vibrating the whole house. I have it up enough to where its easy enough to feel what the car is doing.

Of course I will be relearning everything when I switch to fanatec. I have a little practice with a DFP so I know what I am in for with wheel rotation stuffs.

Big problem with the DFP was so much resistance it is impossible to throw the wheel.

From what I am reading you get the settings right on the Fanatec and you can throw the wheel in Forza pretty similar to RL. I will have to get used to using 1 hand to hold the wheel when shifting and e braking and stuffs, dont have to worry about that on the MS wheel.
