Wait, so Forza and GT are not dumbed for controllers? It's the same here. Even Race Pro, developed by SimBin (GTL, GTR) included options to make it playable on controllers. You don't actually expect EA to do a hardcore simulator [only], and exclude 95% of the console userbase, do you? Developers have stated on several occasions (forget that idiot EA rep that has been showing lately in interviews) that the higher settings in the game would be impossible to drive with a controller and require a wheel.

Try some of the realism mods, might help.
Argh. Stop talking about these 'realism' mods They are anything but! The fundamental mechanics of the game remain the same, they just tweak some values to get what they personally describe as a more realistic feel... but it doesn't actually mean it's realistic or even better - nor does it change the mechanical steering (which is best enjoyed with a console controller).
Hehehhe don't know, they felt better with the 360 controller, so it might feel better with the wheel too.
I don't really see the problem in a game being designed for both controller and wheel. They just have controller-specific aids tied to the controller for turning.
talking about controllers, here's a non marketing vid with a look at the controller menu and the differences with aids on and off... in german though :/
The camera from behind is truly bad. It makes the car feel like it is power sliding through every corner and well just yuck. I think inside camera is the only way to go it seems.
Why still noone in gameplay videos cant drive. Always slamming the walls and other cars and never following the correct racing line. I want to see some actual racing...

you're welcome.... all aids off + pro mode.
Also here's another nice video with Skyline 2000GT-R (all aids off + pro mode ON):
Things seem alot better in those videos already. See what makes the difference in driving like a crazy lunatic and actually trying to drive perfectly. Thanks.
I think the warning on the cut track speaks volumes for this game.
Yeah, I yelled inside my head when I saw that, awesome. 3 strikes and you're out, this will mean that internet races will be enjoyable
And finally lots of videos without aids. We got understeer, oversteer, powersteer, countersteer correction spinsouts and what not \o/
So far it brings everything GRID was missing for me, but would still like to have the demo before I buy.
Those faces at gamescom told them most, people really had to concentrate on the driving and not just mess around. Although don't know if they had BMW M3 as a price there too for the best
A few people have asked what visual differences are made to the cockpit after you upgrade your vehicle with the ‘Cockpit Upgrade’ option. So, rather than explain, we thought we’d show you. Here are some before and after shots of the Ford Focus ST, Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 and Porsche Cayman S, showing the car’s factory cockpit and the custom upgrade. Each car has been fully upgraded to Cockpit Upgrade Level Three which, as you can see from the shots, provides a custom steering wheel, custom seats and additional gauges. If you want a closer look, just click the images. It’s worth bearing in mind that this upgrade is purely cosmetic and has no effect on your vehicle’s performance. And if you don’t like the look of it afterwards, you can always sell the upgrade and revert back to the original factory design.
mArkAntonioo you are obsessed with this game. What will you do if it turns out mediocre?
Hopefully that won't happen, the more great racing games the merrier.

If it will turn out not that good , i'll continue to play GTR2, LFS , Rfactor... As always xD
Yeah, but is it more than a visual dashboard upgrade? I know they said there will be weight upgrades (for weight loss), but I doubt this is has to do with the dashboard.
