  • Whilst this issue has been closed for F1 22, the dev team are continuing to investigate this issue.

•  Inconsistent force feedback when using a controller (PC)
  • In testing, this problem seemed to affect older controllers only. In order to fix this, the resulting effect would break features of newer controllers. Therefore, a decision was made not to make this change.
•  Audio stuttering issues
  
  • The team have identified that this is likely a hardware limitation linked to Bluetooth devices. Stuttering should not occur whilst using other devices for transmitting audio. If you are affected, please switch to a different audio device. If you are still experiencing this issue, please raise a new thread on EA Answers.
