So will my CSW need an update before it'll work with pCars on PS4?
There's likely going to be a firmware update coupled around the time of release that will utilize the new drivers they've developed for SMS.

I don't know what to do also.
A) build a better PC to play Pcars in it's superior version with the wheel i already have or
B) buy a better wheel so i can play Pcars on PS4 and utilize this better wheel on other racing games.
Why not both? Not enough money. I still need to buy a decent racing seat otherwise my elbows and shoulders will murder me.
This wouldn't be such an issue if i could use my G25 on PS4, but it appears that building a better PC to run Pcars seems like a better idea if i can build a decent PC here in Brazil for the cost of a Fanatec or T500RS wheel.
Decisions... decisions...
I've got a similar dilemma. Buy a PS4 for pCARS or build a gaming PC for it. I guess it'll ultimately depend how pCARS reviews, AND if it maintains a Fozaesque rock-solid 60fps on the PS4. If it doesn't then I'm going the PC route, and will builld one with VR in mind.
At least my GT2 will work with either option.
* After spanking out some laps in GT6 earlier on, the G27 still does the business, I can't see how you could appreciably improve on it without getting into silly money territory.
Caved in and bought a Thrustmaster T300. Previously owned a DFGT (with paddles add-on) + Wheel Stand Pro which I loved and was really satisfied with especially considering price vs quality value.
First quick impressions with Thrustmaster T300 playing F1 2013 for 1 hour: thankful that the Wheel Stand Pro works with this wheel but very disappointed with the actual product considering how expensive it is (more than a G27).
The brake pedal is very inconsistent. I knew they were bad but I wasn't expecting it to be worse than the DFGT. The feeling I have is that the response of the pedal in game is different while applying the same amount of pressure. Also the downshift paddle sometimes doesn't register when I try to downshift quickly, is it supposed to work like this? Force feedback and wheel weight are great though but as an overall experience I'm feeling that I have something broken on my pedals and downshift paddles. Maybe it can also be human problem and I have to learn how to drive with another wheel...
Does anyone know if is there any way I can test it on PC to see if everything is working like it should?
There's this tool coming with the TM drivers that should help.Does anyone know if is there any way I can test it on PC to see if everything is working like it should?
Are there any guarantees that the Fanatec ClubSport will be compatible with all future (wheel supported) racing games on the PS4?
Most certainly not. Fanatec stated that the drivers are avalable to any developer working on a PS4 title, but that does nothing to guarantee the developers will actually implement said drivers into their game.
Plus, there's really only one driving game out now (and another in a few weeks) that will really warrant having a good wheel. I might buy a wheel by the time GT7 comes out (if I can still be bothered) but when there's only one or two good driving games on PS4 (and only one is exclusive) while I have countless others on PC, the platform that doesn't support the G27 is going to miss out.Actually thinking back, that was basically the same situation as PS3. Not every game supported every wheel. I had (have) a G25 which due to it's popularity was basically guaranteed to be supported. I feel like the only the only safe bet for PS4 owners is the T300RS and then probably the T500RS. I don't think I can justify $540 - $740 just for PS4 wheel support. I don't feel the jump in performance over a G25/27 is worth the money.
All signs really point to dumping the PS4 and investing in a decent PC as a primary gaming machine. Eliminates the risk of peripheral compatibility issues, all multiplats run better (bar a few buggy exceptions), games are cheaper, far better racing simulation game options, access to mods etc.
If it wasn't for the late announcement of Fanatec support for pCARS on the PS4 I'd definitely be building a PC for it right now. I'll still probably go that route when consumer VR eventually lands but this will be a good stop-gap in the interim.
Oh you with all your Logitech tease.I.still wonder when will Logitech announce what they have in pipeline. It will be interesting.

Are any wheels compatible with xbone, ps4 and pc?
Yes there is. The Fanatec V1 & V2 clubsport base. You need to buy the XB1 adapter, and the PS4 compatibility is on a game to game basis but it will work on all 3.

True, but actually that is a no, because you need an adapter for the XBONE.
For the PS4 it is only working on PCars form now
The base doesn't come with a wheel. So you have to buy an adapter anyway. Buy the XB1 adapter, and put it into PC mode to play on PS4.
Clincher is, the adapter is fucking expensive. Like, a few hundred bucks.

I believe.
Is it finally happening, or am I seeing things (again
I was wandering over the projectcarsgame.com website. I noticed that in the bottom line Logitech was standing there, in between Thrustmaster and Fanatec. I had not noticed this before, so, went to the wayback machine (archive.org).
A screenshot from 18th of march this year is way different, only Thrustmaster there.
What do you think?
Today:
18th March:
NB. Fanatec was announced on the 23rd of march 2015.
And still there is this:
Shavers for the crunching team?What did Panasonic have to do with Project Cars?

They were promoing some 4K TVs with Project Cars. So basically co-promotion.What did Panasonic have to do with Project Cars?
Is there a wheel with decent feedback what you can buy without pedals for X1? I play on my bed, so pedals aren't that suitable.
I've had a quick look but couldn't see anything.

Project CARS supports Logitech wheels on PC, so maybe they just realised that the Logitech should be there.

I started digging more into the option of a Fantec ClubSport V2. But wow, there's a lot of disgruntled Fanatec owners out there! The V1 seems to have been a real lemon. The V2 is supposedly better but it's hard to know because I don't think there's many out there yet. But here's an example from my home country:
http://www.racedepartment.com/threads/csw-v2-base-problem.102767/
I'd be furious if I dropped $2k on this.
On the subject of having a 3 platform wheel, I came across this little device:
http://controllermax.com/cronusmax-plus/
I was thinking, If one has say a G27, Would this allow multiplatform wheel support? G27 already works on PC. supposedly this already has setup support to allow for this from googling. Has anyone here tried it out?
