    So I was starting to really enjoy the driving force GT and decided to buy a PS4 ... ffs :mad:

    Looks like I need to bend over to get a wheel anyway like the DFGT for the PS4.

    What wheel is recommended to match the DFGT for PS4 please. (sorry for rant it also is making me wait 8 hours to update another game ... uuugghh)

    The PS4 doesn't come with good quality broadband. You've to supply that yourself.

    Only the Thrustmaster T80 (no force feedback) or the expensive T300RS will work on the PS4. Some other wheels like the T100 will work depending on what game you want to use them on.

    Matches it in what way? Your choice's for wheels on PS4 is extremely limited as of now. Only 2 officially supported.

    Only the T300RS has force feedback but it's expensive. I don't have either of them so I can't tell you about them.

    Sony has stated they use a software cap which supposedly another word for throttling.
    Everyone downloads equally which is a pain.

    Try spamming the download pause restart gets the time down.
    Do this till it drops from hours to minutes
    Changes server your downloading from.
    It will go back to hours eventually just spam it again till you see minutes if you keep seeing hours then test network or sign out spam again till you see minutes.


    Alot of jumps and hoops to go through just to get something to downloaded quicker.

    Has worked for me numerous times
    Still a pain

    Go to settings 1st
    Power saving settings
    Set functions for rest mode
    Turn them all on then
    Put it into rest mode for the night

    Also
    There's an official petition on project cars to enable logitech wheels

    Actually thought it was officiall but still I'm sure it might help

    https://www.change.org/p/sony-add-logitech-and-fanatec-wheel-support-to-ps4

    From the link

    The wheel works with HID drivers which can be found on the PS3 console port, so we expect the same driver implementation on the current successor. It's on the game console developers (Sony) to check their driver support will provide for external wheel controllers, or to work in a timely manner."
