I am a new xbox owner and new to this forum, and have a few questions on using a racing wheel with Xbox racing games.
I just purchased the Universal MC2 Racing wheel for use with my Xbox, and it really enhanced my experience and success on Apex, I was thrilled, it was exactly what I had hoped.
However, I then tried Rallisport Challenge, V-Rally 3, and SEGA GT 2002 with the wheel and I actually regressed, and it was more difficult for me to control the cars with the wheel then it was with the S Controller. I tweaked the deadzone, turning radius, etc., but still struggled and shot from one side of the road to the next. Needless to say, I was very frustrated and disappointed.
Are these games just much more difficult to control than Apex, do I just need a ton of more practice before the racing wheel becomes a benefit and enhancement? Are there game options I need to turn on or off on these games to make the wheel more useful?
Also, there arent many Xbox wheel options, but I definitely want to have one, are there ones where control is easier.
Thanks for any insight, "Frustrated in Chicago"
