Controller versus mouse and keyboard for the driving sections (Asia servers)

Not sure if this is the right board, move me if needed. Everything I read suggests it should just work, and for me it very much does not.

Rolling back to the previous version made the problem disappear entirely. Hopefully this saves someone else the afternoon it cost me.

This comes up a lot, so: measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.

Had the exact same issue. the wiki number is theoretical; real results are always a bit lower.

Had the exact same issue. if it only happens in one mode, that narrows it down considerably.

Slightly different take — temperature is the usual culprit when performance degrades over a session.

Good luck, it is a common snag.

This comes up a lot, so: the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.

Let us know which part worked.

Adding to the above: the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.

Worth checking first: the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

Worth checking first: region and server load matter more than most guides acknowledge.

That fixed it for me, at least.

For what it is worth, the wiki number is theoretical; real results are always a bit lower.

Worth checking first: the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

In my testing, nine times out of ten it is a driver or a background process, not the thing you suspect.

This is the bit people miss — this changed for me after the last patch, so older threads may steer you wrong.

In my testing, check whether an overlay is running before blaming the game itself.

In my testing, the averages hide the problem; look at the one percent lows instead.

I went through this last month. check whether an overlay is running before blaming the game itself.

From experience, give it a clean reinstall before assuming the hardware is at fault.

Depends on your setup, but broadly keep a note of what you changed, otherwise you cannot undo it cleanly later.

Short version: the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

I went through this last month. do not copy someone else’s config wholesale — start from defaults and adjust to your own setup.
