BEST GRAN TURISMO SETUP? - Fanatec GT DD Extreme Review


Will at Boosted Media legit covers the concerns of Fanatec delivery and concerns of why the QR lite can now all of a sudden work for 15nm holding TQ which means it will boost up to around 17-18 peak most likely and not fall apart. 😞I like Boosted Media because they tend to say it like it is, but did he know about the new wheel coming? Why yes he did. Will mentions he had a review copy 3 months ago. This also means Thomas at Fanatec lied again. What is up with this company? Is it all the overhead of being the sponsor for live racing in GT4, GT3, and of course all the sponsorship they pay to be in all the sim racing games? Well of course this contributes to it. 

When you buy Fanatec you support all their endeavors in real-world racing and others. There is nothing wrong with this and typical business in the motorsports world. However, with, "I would say maybe stretching themselves thin" there is not much room for delivery mistakes like this Nov 2023 and for that matter, this seems to happen every black Friday with Fanatec.

Random Callsign mentions the same thing in his YouTube video here: 

So what gives at least for the QR? Sounds like they think everyone is stupid? Will Fanatec address this QR lite issue on their website? Did they sucker you into buying a $99.95 QR when really a $59.95 would mechanically work? 
Let me know your thoughts below.

Fanatec on PS4 and XboxOne!





A long time coming it would seem, but very exciting news for console owners wanting to use their PC version Clubsport V1 or V2 wheel bases on PS4 and Xbox One. I personally would enjoy using my Fanatec CSW V1 on Xbox One playing Forza Horizon and Forza 5 and now upcoming Forza 6.

Currently the CSW wheels are only compatible to PS3 and PC, but now Fanatec teamed up with Slightly Mad Studios and announced the CSW wheelbase will work with Project Cars on all 3 platforms PC, PS4 and Xbox One. This is awesome news and no better time to introduce this than right before Project Cars gets released. Keep in mind that the CSW Wheel with any CSW rim will work on PS4 and you will not even have to boot the CSW into PS4 mode like you used to do with older Fanatec wheel bases.

Now the Xbox One version will still require an official Xbox One rim that is coming very soon from Fanatec. Looks like I’ll have to buy a Xbox One again to play Forza games later this year along with a Fanatic Xbox One rim. I’ll stick with Project Cars on Steam for now since it’s already pre-ordered. I may pick up the PS4 version to be able to compare the two. Very Exciting news! For us Fanatec owners this is just added value to the wheels we already own!


Here is a list on the Fanatec compatible gear for PS4, XBOX ONE & PC


PC & PLAYSTATION®4

Porsche 911 Turbo S
Porsche 911 GT2
Porsche 911 GT3 RS V2
CSR
CSR Elite

PC, PLAYSTATION®4 & XBOX ONE

                                                                         Below is direct quotes.

"Gamers have been enjoying the solid build quality, integrated technology, and pure driving sensation of these fantastic products for a while now on PC and previous-generation platforms but through a continued collaboration with the team at Fanatec players are now going to be able to use the wheels they already own or are thinking of purchasing with Project CARS via an update on day one.”

“The quality of the input devices play an important role in the immersion factor of a simulation
and especially our ClubSport series delivers an automotive quality and experience level. We are now bringing this level to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and Project CARS is the perfect title to make best use of our technology. This combination is a new milestone on gaming consoles.” (Thomas Jackermeier, CEO Endor AG / Fanatec)
