Does anyone else find it difficult to use the cockpit view with the gamepad?
I'm so used to using a wheel, and it matching perfectly with the ingame wheel, I use visual cues from the ingame wheel angle to help me place the car.
When using the gamepad there is some kind of steering sensitivity setting to compensate for the limited stick movement, in my experience this results in even the slightest touch sending the ingame wheel to extreme angles, totally screwing up my previous wheel technique.
As a last resort I switched to the bumper and bonnet cams and found without the distraction of the ingame wheel, I could at least drive the car in a similar manner as when using a wheel.
This is the first time this issue has arisen for me personally, seeing as there was no cockpit view in previous GT games, while I've never attempted to use a pad with a PC sim.
I just thought I'd share my observations for wheel users who every now and again wish to relax on the couch with a game pad, but still set competitive times.
