I'm not sure how to properly pose this question, but I'll give it my best shot.

I am a complete novice when it comes to racing games/sims and racing wheels. A while back I purchased the Fanatec CSL Elite for PS4. The only game I have is GT Sport. Now I know the support for the wheel and wheel base is not fully implemented yet, but can someone who has a lot more experience than I please tell me what is missing in the "feel" of the game? I know this may be hard to put into words, but I have no reference point to judge from. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

FFB is hard to explain and highly personal. FFB should be already fully implemented by PD. The only thing missing is the LEDs.

I recommend getting Assetto Corsa and/or Pcars 2. they should be fairly cheap to buy right now and they both provide a good reference point concerning FFB. Especially Assetto Corsa's FFB is great and get the Ultimate edition while you can.

I agree with what PocketZeven said. In addition, the way the cars react will be more true to life and hence more complex with a greater adjustment in driving style required if you try AC or PC2 compared with GTS.

PC2 has a lot more content so will likely keep you going for longer, but the feel of some cars in AC is great, although there are also some great ones in PC2!

Good luck and welcome to sim racing!
