I’m thinking of buying a handbrake for my Rig. So I want some advice. Can anybody who is using a handbrake in the game tell how it feels, does it feel realistic? Do you use it a lot? Specific for the Fanatec handbrake: is it worth the money?

Thanks!
 
I have a Fanatec handbrake and unfortunately the game doesn't allow an axis for the handbrake so it's effectively it's just an on/off switch. Very disappointing. I still prefer using the handbrake to a button on the wheel but I hope they add axis support for the handbrake.

I have the fanatec handbrake and love it ,well made , strong and versatile (you can change the position horizontally or vertically ) ,I have it mounted to the shifter great for immersion in rally cross and rally ,but it will keep you very busy.Manual h pattern plus clutch and handbrake in car view great fun but you'll be knackered after a long session

Did the original dirt rally or Dirt 4 support an axis?
 
I found the available options too expensive and built one myself by using a keypad.



Works digital of course, but that's not problem in the games I play.

The Thrustmaster TSS Handbrake works fine in Dirt Rally 2.0 and is fully progressive in the game 👍

I don't think so .... sadly, unlike Ur-DiRT Rally, DiRT Rally 2.0 does not recognize anything but on/off for handbrake input.
No analog/axis input device, like the Fanatec hand brake or the TSS can change that.

Are we talking about PC or PS4? Thrustmaster's website says it should be analog on PS4.
