Hi folks. I use the motion sensor method of steering using my DS4. I was immediately better when switching from the stick. Perhaps not always faster but definitely smoother. The only downsides I've found is that it's physically quite difficult to do for multiple laps and it's quite easy to lose the plot and almost tip off my chair. It looks faintly ridiculous.
Last night I was reading a thread where people were comparing their controller settings. I was jealous of all the options for stick users as I knew there were no options for people like me using the six-axis method.
Except there is. One.
Controller Steering Sensitivity. It was set by default (I assume) at 0 which must be direct. The weird thing is the scale which goes from -2 to +7. Even weirder is that there is a centre detent marker but it's at exactly 2.5, a number which can't actually be dialled in.
Anyway, I bumped it up from 0 to +4 and the difference is remarkable. I can catch snap oversteer immediately. In fact I can even hang the tail out and still be stable. That's a first.
I just wanted to let people know that the six-axis method isn't a one-size-fits-all solution and that there's room for some calibration.
I'd really like to know why the scale is as it is though because I can't see the sense of it personally.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post. All opinions and thoughts are always welcome.
