buy a 900 degrees.. you can set it from 0 to 900 in anytime with the software of your device. Logitech G25 is very good for multiple reasons.. take a look at.

He didn't ask whether he should buy a G25 or not. He asked which is better, 180° or 900° of rotation. Obviously, 900° is far better. There are other wheels besides the G25 that offer 900° of rotation, some of which are very good or even better than the G25 in the eyes of some people.

900 degree isnt the only feature the G25 has. There are many other features that make it the best wheel for trucking simulators

Like what? You can't make such a statement and then not list all the "features" you are talking about because then it looks like you're talking shit.

I have a G25 myself, and it is indeed a great wheel. But is it the best wheel? Hell no. It just depends on what you want to spend on a wheel. There's some seriously expensive wheels out there that make the G25 look like crap. The shifter on the G25 is by far its weakest point.

Clutch pedal and shifter are 2 things that other 900º wheels dont have. But indeed you can buy a wheel by 1000€ who make the G25 rubish

I think you'll find that almost all other wheels that have a 900° rotational travel also have a clutch pedal and a shifter. Earlier wheels did not, and also did not have 900° of rotation. Logitech have set a new standard with the G25, and other brands have quickly adopted to be able to compete.

The Fanatec Porsche 911 GT3 RS wheel (http://www.fanatec.de/html/index.php?id=230&lang=) is a good example - but definitely not the only one! - of a wheel that many people find to be better than the G25, while not yet being extremely expensive.

Note that while there is no picture of the shifter unit, it is there, as is the case with all Fanatec wheels. And it's said to be of better quality than the G25 one.

ok, I haven't any news about that wheel, but other fanatec wheels are made in plastic.
That one looks awesome, but...

170€ without shifter, and without pedals!!

Pedals are 50 or 200€ and the shifter 50€ more = 270€ (plastic pedals) agains the 230€ of the G25

Ummm try again bro. Almost nothing on the fanatec (my wheel) is plastic (all leather and metal parts). Only the shifter was half and half plastic. I had g25 for 2 years and it short circuited. The g25 was ok, the shifter was completely awful, g25 has the most unrealistic shifter i have ever used.. and i have used the g25, act labs shifter, and fanatec. The g25 shifter has No resistance, of course theres mods but u void ur warranty. The fanatec on the other hand, comes with 2 shifters, and paddle shifters, a more realisticly sized wheel, built in force feedback pedals (G25 wishes they had though of this) and the force feedback complies with how much gas you apply :) All this for $349.99 only $50 more than g25. So Buddy get your shit straight before you answer cuz im sure you have never used a fanatec. This package also comes with a pedal mounting steel plate and 2 wings to support it if you want to drive with it on your lap it doesnt move. Also, The fanatec is wireless except the ac adapter that provides its power, my g25 had chords everywhere, in my pedals sometimes would rap around the wheel, just rediculous. Fanatec is at least 4x better than my g25 and only $50 more.

Whatever wheel they release in 2056, because that is when the game will come out. ;-)

Dont all go crazy now, I didnt say anything official. I dont know anything. I'm just being sarcastic about this game, which is how most of us feel.

I think I will write to Mr Belago again in March.

I would like to know, games that only the United States National Road (US101.US395), the California

State Road (SR1.SR14.SR58.SR99.SR108.SR120.SR126.SR299), Interstate Highway

(I5.I10.I15.I80.I110. I205.I215.I580.I880) ?


I would like to ask? In the game, from south to north how many miles? Some people know? Thanks

could you stop flooding every thread with the same stupid question? who cares how many miles there are. If the game ever gets released youll be able to count every mile if that is so important for you. No more floods ok?!?!

You can find this answer in many, many, different places. This questions has been answered many times before since the answer has been around for what, 3 - 4 years now. Does that beg your pardon mate? I hope so for your sake ;)

Here is my suggestion. Go to your local thrift shop. I'm serious. I went and got a microsoft racing wheel with pedals for 10 dollars. This baby. http://www.tweak3d.net/reviews/microsoft/swffwheel/images/4.gif

Its used and it looks used, but it works perfect, I have played PTTM with it. 10 dollars vs 100. Think about it.

Of course if you absolutely must have gearshift, go ahead and spend a lot of money, but you can buy gearshift separately.

It's not just about the gearshift - although I must admit that shifting a truck with paddles would be a bit weird. It's mainly about the degrees of rotation you get. Now, I don't know that Microsoft wheel you bought, but I'm guessing it has something like 240° of rotation. That's like a F1 car. That just doesn't feel right to drive a truck with IMO. I bet it's a good enough wheel for most racing games, but if you want to feel like you're driving a truck you definitely need a bigger range (ie. more rotation).

Well its probably not only rotation angle, but also how hard it is to turn the wheel. A truck steering wheel is hard to turn. Also a real size truck wheel would be nice.

But until I can afford something better, this microsoft wheel is good enough.

And yes I definetely want to experience the gears. I drive a regular car in real life, and its automatic. Don't even know how to drive manual. Would be fun to try.
