Yep, I'm seriously in love with this game. (Gaming)

Of course, I'm now realizing that you're playing on different hardware. That,plus personal preference means YMMV I guess. But in general, sensitivity a bit lower than default and linearity a bit higher seems to be the way to go if the defaults feel twitchy.

Yeah, honestly, I'm not sure why I bought it on the PS4, other than it's the console I was using when I realized it was out. I do think I would enjoy it more with the Xbox controller. The PS4 one isn't bad, but the triggers have way less pull until stop than the Xbox One, so I feel like my throttle and brake inputs are really extreme.

If you want to see a truly hopeless rally game, download the demo for Sebastian Loeb Rally Evo. Yeesh. I wanted to like it, but I tried for days to fix the handling and it just wasn't happening - there is no combination of settings that can save it, as far as I could tell. Even out of the box, Dirt Rally feels much better.

Heh--I downloaded that demo, too. I did one race and turned it off.

Heh. Unfortunately I found the steering settings after I'd done that one and it'll be a bit before I'm buying my own 037, but so far every other car I have feels excellent. I'm flying through the courses compared to what I was doing before.

So far the only cars I own are the Renault Alpine A110, Ford Escort MkII, and now the Renault Clio for rally cross. I love the first two, but hate the Clio. Mainly I think I just strongly dislike FWD cars. I did alright with it--I won my first rally cross championship, but I just do no like driving it. But the AWD cars cost about twice what I have right now. I'm thinking the next one I buy and try my hand at will be the Audi Quattro Hill Climb car.
