I bought the game on sale yesterday. I had promised myself I would never again purchase a Milestone product at full price and I stuck to it.
I set up the controllers, badly because it is a mess and I have separate H-pattern shifter, a TM T500, a DSD button box and assigning the H-pattern was impossible. The Wheel controller actually registered the inputs, but when I went to test drive the default car, I could only use the paddles.
However, there is no point in troubleshooting that, since when I go to a Stage, none of my controller inputs work. None.
I am watching the car from Behind, my throttle doesn't work, my gears don't work (paddles or H-pattern) I just sit there with the clock running and I cannot drive.
I exit, go back to the default Peugeot car, and at least Throttle and brake work and I can change gears.
I have read reviews written by people with a setup similar to mine. Even people with 3 screens. For somebody the controller works, maybe badly, but in my case it doesn't work at all.
Since there are a few fans of the game here, have you seen this behavior? Is there anything I can do?
Does steam refund purchases if the game refuses to work as advertised?
