    Update: There are reports that the rumble pack vibration isn't working in S mode for some games. If you are having this issue, you may want to experiment with different combinations of settings both on the wheel and in game. The wheel seems to not be fully supported in some cases, and may be reason to consider finding an alternative. I'd still say it's a good choice for the price range, but if you are serious about getting into racing / driving simulation, you should consider investing in a wheel with force feedback (not the same as vibration).

      @@tommyp614 Hey! Sorry for the late reply! Unfortunately the sim wheel market is really expensive right now, and the holidays have just made it worse. You could potentially find a HORI Apex / Overdrive for between 80 - 100 USD. These wheels are great for super casual play! I believe the GT Driving Force has force-feedback and a 900 degree wheel rotation though, so the HORI might feel like a big step down. I picked up a Logitech G29 (comparable to the GT Driving Force) for 200$ used (a month or so ago) and have been loving it. The Thrustmaster TMX has also been a popular choice lately for force feedback wheels, though it only has 2 pedals. I'd recommend digging around and looking for a good deal or possibly even used wheel, also prices might go down a bit after the holidays.

Only thing is that my settings for no dead zone was the opposite and not up. A company can't get their shit right is annoying. Everyone has different menu settings for the same steering wheel. Lol.

    I definitely think that the Ferrari 458 wheel is a lot better although it isn’t quite realistic if you are using a different brand of car. The Ferrari wheel has very nice grippy rubber and it has metal gear paddles and it is about $99 USD ( I am not too sure if it is $99 USD as I am Australian but it is definitely within the price range of $100 - $120. )
    Edit: This is just my opinion and I respect everyone’s opinion. Great and helpful video aswell!

    I've been looking at getting a wheel ever since I got American Truck Simulator about a week ago. Everything here sounds nice but it still feels like it is quite a bit on the expensive side for my taste. I'm playing the game with a controller now and it works find but I still get some rather jerky movement that I'm not that happy with. I'm not looking for anything fancy, I use automatic transmission so I don't care about shifting, and honestly I don't even care that much about having nice pedals. All I really am looking for is something that will turn smoother than the controller does. Don't suppose anyone here as any experience with wheels cheaper than this Hori wheel? Good or bad I'd like to hear anything people have to say. If I don't find a cheaper option than this wheel then I don't know if I will bother with a wheel at all honestly.

Also, if you start with a cheaper wheel then upgrade, you can keep the spare around for playing with friends. All things to consider

    just buy a g25/g27, they're 20 bucks more then this, aren't of very bad quality, plus you get force feedback, a clutch and a shifter. it's not the best force feedback but it's pretty good, I've used it before. However, due to the age of them, after intensive and long gaming sessions. there's a chance a chip will short out. it's what happened to my brother's old one a few years ago, this isn't very common though

I have come in 1st place 4 times already without a PlayStation wheel. do u think that it is possible to win races that are pretty tough with this HORI APEX WHEEL? the problem is my hands get tired. I HAD A STROKE 6 YEARS AGO & MY LEFT HAND IS ALWAYS NUMB, WEAK, GETS TIRED EASILY. especially from races with many hard turns. so can any1 tell me if i can beat fast cars on tracks that are not easy. all these cars i am racing are fast but i have 2 of the best one's in my garage. but like i said, I ALREADY WON 4. THEN FINISHED 2ND, 3RD IN ANOTHER. but they are difficult. PLEASE ANY INFORMATION WILL HELP. BY THE WAY I USE THE CONTRILER TO STEER AS OF NOW. almost left that out. peace out

      Yep my thoughts exactly. You wouldn't have both standardly. But this isn't clearly a FULL sim authentic experience anyway. That is not the market for this wheel. This is for casual-enthusiasts. For me I got this wheel not because of budget (I could easily afford the $300+ wheels) but because they just want a step up from using a controller. I don't want to feel like I am fully driving a real car as I already drive plenty in real life and so this is a way to not have to tire my fingers out holding down acceleration buttons over the course of long races. I would rather use foot pedals for that.

    • @ZerumTV
      @ZerumTV  2 роки тому +1

      FFB can be quite loud so I don't blame you! The hori is pretty quiet, especially if you turn off vibration in the game you're playing.
      It will make more noise than a regular controller, hard / fast shifting gets pretty loud, but you could just opt to drive automatics when you need to be incognito.
      If FFB is within your budget, you could get a wheel that supports it, but turn off the FFB when you need to be quiet also.

    • @ZerumTV

      FFB can usually be disabled in the game settings, but check to make sure the game you're playing has that option (most pc sims should). I have a G29 and I've never noticed it to be particularly loud, but spirited driving certainly wont be silent. Really enjoy the wheel overall.

      Some people have reported that happening, not sure if it's a faulty wheel or something game specific. Check if there's any software updates for the wheel as well. You could potentially use it on the "-n" mode instead, but you will probably need to turn up sensitivity greatly either in-game, on the wheel, or both. Hope you're able to find a solution.
