It's crazy they wont sell just the wheel, the amount of people who have a DD pro, that would like to just buy the wheel is probably huge
I was said the same thing to myself when Rory said that. They are going to regret that move because literally every person with a DD pro would buy this wheel for sure but they are screwing us and themselves by forcing us to buy the whole bundle, stupid!!
@@TheGoose2133 after whats been going on im sure they just dont want to possible have even more shipping issues.
All about profits.
They know people will eventually buy the whole bundle and sell off the old bundle to second hand market.
I literally just bought my DD pro yesterday a few hours before this was released. I have emailed them to change the order, but hearing about their customer service, I dont like my chances
@@BimmerDudeXi will be hard to sell a DD Pro, because the e teeme doesn't come with pedals
For £1200 it should not be made of plastic.
It does look very cheap and toyish. I guess im spoiled with a dd1 and carbon finer f1 podium wheel. It doesnt look very premium though
JFC that thing is waaaaaaaay overpriced.
1200😂😂😂😂😂😂
The wheel is actually €300. That’s not competitive priced but definitely not the opposite. In the end you will get the DD+ which is 1K alone. If you don’t like the wheel, don’t buy it.
@@tykjenffsIt’s a €100 price difference to the old gen which is easily justified with the Magnetic Shifter and Dual Clutch Paddles, QR2, Display and Funky Switch. All the people saying it’s too expensive actually mean that they won’t spend that much money on a wheel in the first place.
Nice to hear your impressions. I like the GT DD Pro 8nm but I ordered this the second I got the notification of availability. Seems like I'll be set for a while with this wheel and base.. And you can always change out wheel and use it on PC too so that makes it worth it to me. YOLO I guess.
I just got the other one I was so happy how did I not know this was coming out iv never been so disappointed or angry
Up until 2 days ago I could cancel the order of my DD+ but now its processing and Fanatec release this for purchase. So trust me when I say I feel your frustration.
Just resell your base. People will try to buy it from you to skip the waiting line
@@boodybanditlet's just face it, Fanatec are a discusting company that operate on pure greed and don't give a shit about customers, they treat them absolute contempt because history has taught them they can. Their gear isn't bad but it's far from the best, the one and only thing that keeps Fanatec in business is the Ps5 compatibility that they pay for and other superior wheels don't have. Yet!
I just watched this mornings live stream talking about the comments in this video..
Letting other peoples opinion of your review or your particular work.. Will for sure get the best of you..
You do a great job on these video's. Just ordered this setup today. Sold my dd pro loadcell setup, now got v3s and soon the Extreme.
Not gonna lie, that wheel looks very good! And I’m tempted to upgrade the DD Pro to this new wheelbase. Great video Rory, well done.
Its hella plastic looking and the design is something even its mother couldnt love
@@AllardWolff What? xD
I just did 15 minutes ago. Not sure when it’ll be here though. I have the 8nm
Dude it’s plastic garbage with a screen so outdated that its competition is laughing at them.
If you buy this when you have the dd1 you need to be seen by a Dr, if you buy this and you have a PC then you need more than a Dr
Biggest issue with sim wheels has always been the size (and it being so much smaller in general to real cars). Great to see Fanatec bringing out a wheel fabulously suited to sim driving but with a greater connection to real life. Really tempted!!
I'm about to move houses and can confirm there is (finally) a rig coming and it seems like this wheel promises a lot of quality time as well as a promise by Gran Turismo to keep developing games and hardware for the coming decade (I hope) I'm on controller for the last year and my ratings are suffering bad. I havent spent my Christmas bonus yet so.... :)
Looks great, thanks Rory 👍🏻
Will watch the review later. Just here to say delighted you’re one of the people to be sent the wheel for review.
I'm on a G29.
I can only dream of a wheel like this.
A least ya have wheel, im on a controller
@@gercoffey9873 I only got the wheel, secondhand, a few weeks back. I'm still more comfortable (and faster) on the controller. Keep an eye on Marketplace and you may be lucky like me and pick one up well under market value.
Seeing the asking price of this DD just boggles my mind.
I'm in the same place, but couldn't really justify this kind of expense for the amount of time I actually get to play
You dont need a wheel like this its overkill if you just play gran turismo dudes like this still get passed by people on a g29
Logitech have a direct drive wheel. The amount of money you'd spend changing ecosystems to fanatec is way more than incrementally upgrading you Logitech stuff
Wow Rory!!! I'm sharing your JOY!! Nice!!! I'm looking forward to seeing you Enjoy it in future posts!!! Well done You! And well deserved! Peace
Greatly appreciated 👏
I have to see how they are doing this their orders being fixed, but I think I will buy it for my birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉
Nice. As someone who's never had a wheel but has recently been heavily researching and looking into what to go for... I might just shoot for this!
I had no idea this wheel was coming, especially with all the commotion I have been hearing about Fanatec lately. Before this, the Pro seemed like the sensible option w/ Boost Kit, but like many others, I found the wheel to look a bit tacky. This one looks a tad better 👍🏾
Hi Rory, thanks for the review. Can you share your updated Clubsport DD+ wheel settings? Are they different from the GT DD Pro?
I purchased the DD pro last November. If would have known about the extreme, I would have waited and got this…
Don't buy into hype during a product launch. How many times has this happened before?
@@TheMachRider I’m new into sim racing so I’m not entirely familiar with the antics lol.
@@TaulPaulGT I meant in all technology and gaming. Definitely get used to heavy sales, new versions after a year
Main difference in this is full force. But big game has it yet. Wait it out.
this is what ive been waiting for. been using a csl elite forever but couldnt drop the money for a dd2, and the csl dd wasnt enough of an upgrade for me to justify it.
Just got the wisdom teeth pulled at 28 years of age. Hoping there aren't any dry sockets 😓
(edit): The fact that the you may not have to use gloves for this wheels is always a plus. Great video as always, Erieisssss
Good luck man. I had a wisdom tooth extraction in December and suspect I ended up with a dry socket. Painful for almost 2 weeks 😬
Looks honestly stunning, I suppose I best start saving, cuz it’s not cheap, but I suppose will pay for itself in the longevity of use
Finally the cat is out of the bag. The product looks intriguing
I like watching your streams and will continue to watch your content but this seems more like a sales promotion video than a review. I don't think there was anything negative said which maybe you were not allowed to due to an agreement with Fanatec. I'm by no means saying you need to bash them but it was like you avoided anything that wasn't positive. Maybe there are no negatives in your eyes though being free. This is very expensive for a lot of people and I like when a review is objective, especially on an expensive item. Fanatec is still dealing with some shipping and support delay issues. I was upset I couldn't swap out my DD+ order to get the Extreme with this wheel when I first saw it and your video along with another popular person but when I saw a 3rd review actually showing the negatives to it, like how much flex it has from all the plastic, I'm glad I wasn't able to swap and get the Extreme. I'll gladly put that money towards a better wheel now that I know that even a metal QR2 won't fix the rims plastic flex.
Again, I'm not saying you need to nitpick and have a list of 20 bad things about something, but at least be objective and compare with gear you have or used. You have a lot of Fanatec gear to compare with, everything from premium DD1 base, higher end rims to their budget Mclaren and GT DD Pro ones.
Looking great. I have the Thrustmaster T-GT II now. It's a great wheel too.
Did you ever make the jump to the Fanatec? How good is the T-GT 2, does the force feedback fade?
I don’t exactly have $1300 worth of skill yet lol. I’m about a month in on the pro. May need to wait a while before upgrading from my mid price sandals to Birkenstocks.
Watched Kierth's recent interview with Fanatec, hopefully things get better for them now. I run MOZA on PC but am looking for a setup for the PlayStation
The one thing that you didn't mention Rory, was the actual cost of the set. Other than that a fairly good honest review I think, and just looking at your face confirms how good it must feel. Well done
Great review Rory you've sold me on the extreme wheel. Anyone want to buy an 8nm DD Pro?
Thanks now looking at your setup need a lower priced chair and rig
Had the Extreme for about a month. So happy with it. U should do a settings video on the dd plus. Not alot out there on that. Great stuff as always.
Ooohhh tempting
that looks great i might by one next year if the nascar game is a hit next.year in 25
order now get it next christmas 🤣
was affraid they still had the black friday back orders but they are in stock (at least in the Netherlands and Belgium)
Still don't mean your gonna get it in a timely manner.
Thanks Rory 👍 SOLD 🤠
Appreciate the review however with all the negative feedback pertaining to Fanatec’s delayed shipping and poor customer service I think I’ll look elsewhere when it’s time to pull the trigger on a wheel setup.
I ordered my gt dd pro mid January it came within 10 days (uk)
Awesome review Rory 👍
Though I like the wheel’s agility which I think must due to the fact that it’s lighter (also a bit smaller) than many conventional wheels.
But the shifter action is way too long imho which is remedied by adding extra magnets to the shifter mechanism therefore shortening the paddles route.
Still waiting for that “extra force feedback” to be implemented…
Sold my DD Pro and pedals for 850 so I could get the DD ultimate. Hope they can get full force on GT7 quickly.
Fanatec contradict themselves.
They wanted to release the Clubsport DD+ the same time as the Clubsport is case people might buy the wrong one and miss out. They said an announcement wouldn’t be good enough.
However the only way to get this wheel is in the bundle so anyone who bought the Clubsport DD+ is going to miss out on this wheel because you can’t buy it t separately.
So which one is it? Do you want customers to miss out or not. They need to sell this wheel seperate especially for the people who are waiting for the Clubsport DD+ to arrive.
How about fidelity of force feedbqack compared to 2200g weight 911 GT3 R wheel? Is there possibility of command or make video about it?
Hi Rory
I have the same wheel and base as you but am new to Sim Racing.
I noticed that you have all the settings and lights showing on the display at the top of the screen.
How do you do that, please?
The wheel is so new that it's not in the controller settings menu with the other wheels.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
I am about 45 minutes from Guildford if its easier to DIY.
Thanks in advance
Peter
Nice Rolex Rory
Thats fancy
if only we could get these in NZ
Can you please Install a different wheel Rim with QR2 Lite and let me know if you still get 15Nm? I would like to know why in the DD+ Description it says QR2 Lite and QR1 Lite will be limited to 8Nm Yet here they’ve Pre-Installed a QR2 Lite and it Gets 15Nm
Every other wheel with QR2 Lite is limited to 8 Nm.
Thanks for sharing Rory. Since I have the BMW M4 Wheel too, would buying the Extreme base alone give me the advanced feedback you experienced? Maybe you could give the BMW wheel a go too, would highly be appreciated! Don't want to set this wheel aside... Greetz Paul-GT3
My Fanatec DD Pro was delivered less than a week ago... Not sure if i want to cry lol
My money is tickling in my pocket...damn you Rory ! 😂
Hi, I wanted to ask you for some information. I am disabled and so I have no possibility to use the pedals. I saw on the official Fanatec website that the DD EXTREME has the possibility to set the second paddles as a brake and accelerator, and this would be a great solution for me and for all people who like me have this kind of situation. What I wanted to ask is if you had the chance to try this solution, your feelings if it is practical and above all comfortable to use. Thank you for your possible feedback.
Hi please help will i still be able to play ps4 games on ps5 with this wheel (need4speed, the crew 2, grand turismo sport ect) basically can i play the games i used to play on Fanatec DD Pro?
Did you try different inside settings for the wheelbase ?
Rory could you do a review with the wheel and base on ACC
Can you do a comparison review between the DD+ and DD1 for PS5 please. I don’t want to make the mistake of selling my DD1 for the DD+ if its not worth doing so. Thank you.
hi man, i recieved my DD Extreme in 4 days from order placed 🙂 Can i ask you do you maybe have any recommended settings for GT7, iRacing?
Uh oh...I feel a 'need new shiny toy' mission coming on! 👀
Looks so good!
Did they fix the issue with the micro usb connection randomly coming undone, forcing you to unbolt the clamp and reconnect the wheel shaft to the base then retorque?
Yes, this problem was resolved with the QR2
Rocking the Rolex and and bottle of Champagne, you love to see it Rory!
Love to know how long you've been sitting on this review!
Nice watch 😉
Jelly. I get not being able to properly articulate what's going on. Sometimes it's just feeling it and viscerally understanding the nuances.
0:12 it looks like thats a box for the wheel to be a stand-alone product which i hope it is
No.
Looks great rory and im sure it will be a winner but i think i will go with the logitec pro instead....given all the dramas with fanatec deliveries and customer service etc......
Youll just be stuck into an entry level ecosystem. For all the flaws of fanatec, the amount of options you have is worth any perceived shipping issues
@@jmcculloch86not sure about the eco system with the fanatec if they wont seperate wheels and bases seems like people will be stuck anyway unless they pay up, plus I need a PC to take advantage of the customisation options which is an additional expense, I just want a reliable wheel and base that works and doesnt have the complications of delivery and poor customer service that fanatec have fallen into
I'm in the UK I ordered my gt dd pro mid Jan it arrived in 10 days.
120k subs, NDA’s and a cheeky product review… Me thinks Mr Alexander is doing all the right things. Great vid, looking forward to seeing how you get on with it long term now. 👍🏻
is there any reason to upgreat to dd extream from dd pro?
So since you got this for free I’ll be happy to receive your old one in the post😀
Bonjour Alex je voudrais savoir si la roue Gran Turismo DD extrême et compatible avec le DD pro parce que j'ai acheté ces roue l elle s'allume mais ne fonctionne pas voilà merci
Can you use basically any pedal set with it that has the rj45 connector?
No, only Fanatec ones.
It comes with a QR2 Lite, could it be changed to the metal one I already have on another wheel ?
Of course
How do you change the NM.. im stuck at 7.5 nm
are laptimes any quicker??
QR2 Lite limits the max torque to 8NM, does not make sense...
That’s what i want
Im currently on the 8nm DD. Ive ordered this, there only fun coupons
With this new wheel we need massive price drops on the old 5Nm GT DD Pro to bring direct drive to the masses. I want the DD Pro but the price is too high for us Canadians.
The masses dont need direct drive thats the fucking problem to begin with
How does the rim compare to the McLaren GT3?
I'd like to know how much does the fanatic system cost
Look at all you lot with ya DDs!!!!
hey Rory, is that 124060 no date sub you're wearing? i have the 2016 114060 on bracelet and love it... no date i reckon is the best albeit i love my 116660 as well... i just wish NZ has fanatec store... THEY DO NOT SHIP TO NZ
I saw the little Roley flash and “BMW” drop 🤪
i wore omegas with bmws... 🤣... rolex are for merc... i don't have merc... 😂
£1200 😂 Honestly, whilst I understand the hype Rory had to try and build by teasing this video, it’s not surprising to see that is reaction and the relative low number of views for the ‘review’. If you take the number of players who are interested in playing GT on a wheel, then the number of those players willing or able to part with £1200 for it, the target market is pretty small.
This isn’t a game changer, it’s a high end product aimed at those with high disposable incomes. A game changing product would be one that is affordable for the masses and gets more people off controllers and onto wheels.
I agree completely, whilst it would be great to upgrade to Dd, at these prices I think I will be using the G29 for quite a while yet
NOT £1200s but more like £1500 with your 20% import TAX, and shipping! Oh and add some pedals on for luck!
@@g_geezer3277 Prices on the EU Fanatec site are in Euro and include VAT at 20%. When you purchase in the UK you're charged the pre-VAT price but pay it to UPS when shipped. There's also a admin fee from UPS and, as you say, shipping.
So they release a Gran Turismo wheel with a screen and funky leds but none of that really works with Gran Turismo? Seems like its more a PC wheel with a GT7 logo, since you can only make use of all that stuff with PC games.
My dd pro died live on stream. Only used it for a month!😢
Check the clamp on the stem of the wheel base, I thought mine crapped out also until I loosened the clamp w allen key, pushed it flush then tightened the ever loving hell out of it. It’s a known issue with the dd pro.
Done all of that. Even tried different power cords. Thing won't even turn on
from wheel to wheel nothing will make you "faster" HOWEVER better FFB can make you more consistent, which in turn will eventually turn into speed
(Ah! SUBMARINER Rory… Great choice!)
Perfect to see a positive vid of Fanatec gears instead of all the negative!
lol. In the stream today: 'Dont buy a wheel, wait till the weekend, that's all I'm gonna say'
Fanatec 2 hours later:
Damn I’m still good with my G29😂 scared one day I’m gonna upgrade, and then never stop🤦🏾♂️
Me2, g29 and love it. Couldn't imagine this but Fanatec suffers from quality
Ayyyy I'm G29 as well.. it's like Nokia 3310, undestructible (jk), but for real I've had it for quite some time already and it's still running great.
(I'm also poor to upgrade so I will run this one until it breaks).
With you all on this, I was so happy when I found I could afford a G29 and Gt Omega base to hold it ( not full rig but solid enough to race with) , and amazed by how much extra control I had versus controller. But as much as I would love to try DD, I'm just not in that disposable income bracket 😢
@@SHIZURAKU 😂
@@chicklessheadin12 hell yea, I have some whell stand off Amazon for like 70$ it’s great really sturdy
UPDATE, DAY 109 still not shipped…
How is it WE ALL GOT the email saying your order is ready to ship from the warehouse SONY is STOPPING SHIPPING.
END RESULT WEBSITE SERVER SAYS……………………………………💻👾👾👾👾loading……….
HAND OVER TOO WAREHOUSE.
Like WTF is the discrepancy HERE
Ok Rory, you need to quite holding it in. Just let us know how you feel. 😂
I just hit the 1k Like haha
How did I guess 😂
I always get gold on my Logitech g29, what will happen if I buy a Fanatec DD Extreme 🤣
Great review, better than a certain other very popular youtuber.
I am so mad at fanatec I ordered pedal on the 18th of february and I still don't have a tracking number on the page
Settings please!! :)
I thought Fanatec had been naughty!
Im getting it for sure lol not gonna lie with how bad gt7 is you almoat need 15nm just to feel somewhat ok ffb haha. Just saying!
1300 and plastic qr!? I’ll give that a miss thanks.
Love Rory. But i get a heavy shilling vibe with this one. Boosted Media is basically the only reviews i take serious on sim racing products
The amount of flex was very disappointing only have to check out boosted media review wouldn't waste my money and to pair it with the dd+ with the QR2 lite on a base as strong has the dd+ I'm sure I'm not the only one going WTF
Yeayeayeeeaaa
SuperGT did a race 10 seconds faster than his previous best. He was a little over 1 second faster per lap
I just watched the video from SuperGT, even he didn't make that claim, specifically, being 10 seconds faster than his best race. He did one race on the EU server, with people equal to his skill level and than, went to the NA servers, where there wasn't an equal skill level available for the time he raced. I'm sure you're disagreeing but, in 3rd was a Corvette mearly 9 seconds behind.
Steve may be fast, but he didn't make unrealistic claims.
