FF or not??????

3 posts by 3 people · 29 Dec 1998 - 29 Dec 1998

Hi all :-) After searching the net and reading a lot of rewiews I decided to buy the Logitech FF, since I live in Norway and unfornutately can't buy the Act labs here... Now... the logitech was sold out so I bought the Thrustmaster T2 with an option to get my money back within 30 days.. Now I'm wondering... is the ff wheels any better than the non ff ones? I think the T2 is very nice even dough it's an old controller... It costs about the same as the logitech so what should I do? Are the forces just annoying or does the driving experience get any better? what to do?? thanks for your help Marius.

My opinion is that FF isnt much until its in your seat. When driving a car you talk though the wheel and the car talks back by moving (and you feel it through your seat). And another opinion of mine is that ff technology is where Adlib soundcards was when they started, there still is a lot to do. /Daniel

Hmmm... Maybe I'm wierd, but I actually feel more thru the wheel than the seat. I can feel my Daytona slipping into a corner at speed BEFORE the wheels lose grip and before it's fed back to my seat. Maybe that's unique to front wheel drive? It's been years (well, 'cept my truck which has NO acceleration) since I've driven a rear wheel drive car. I use the wheel extensively for feedback (that's why I like Chrysler's tight ratio steering, GM's is too loose and I can't "feel" the road as well). "Gunner"
