Clutching

[Merle]

Has anyone noticed that the clutch in TDU2 is totaly different than TDU1? In TDU1 their was a very realistic system, but now it's unplayable.

 

Normally, you can lift the clutch a bit and the car moves very slowly, then you hit the throttle and lift the clutch completely and of you are :D

 

But now you're engine shuts down the moment you lift the clutch even a tiny bit. :confused:

 

Do I need to ram the throttle every time now, before I lift the clutch, pffff.... Takes away the fun!

From what everyone who uses the clutch has been saying, the clutch is now just an on/off button rather than an actual pedal.

 

Your (and everyone else's) best bet is to wait for a patch and hopefully they will fix it.

I think it's been reported somewhere that a fix for the pedals will be in the first patch. Hopefully it won't be too long to wait.

Speaking of clutches... Is it not possible to use the clutch with a Gamepad? I've got a Logitech Dual Action (which is supposedly supported) but i haven't gotten the clutch to work. Or haven't i tried enough?

You have to set the gearbox to H-shift+Clutch in the options menu.

 

Can't wait for that patch and proper clutching :hsquad:

Clutching on a joypad? You're brave...

 

Clutching on TDU1 was alright... Quite a long way from perfect, but that's mainly due to the fact that a clutch on a G25/27 or Fanatec wheel feels absolutely sod all like a real clutch... But there we go.

 

From what people are saying I'd hate to think what it's like on the new game.

I use the clutch on my Gamepad every single time for TDU1, works great.

Interesting. How do you slip it when you want to pull off? Just a case of dumping it or is there a little more technique than that?

[Sponge]

The "technique" is just to stall the engine, and then use the throttle lightly to coax the engine back into life.

 

they better had fix it by the next patch, or else :evil:

You don't slip it from a standstill. It's just full throttle and release and then 0.2 sec after you take off you release 75% of the throttle and it all looks perfectly normal. Then gears 2-7 is just like any other clutch, you don't notice anything odd when shifting. Very easy to learn with a few practices. And using the clutch with a gamepad you can change gear 50% faster than any flappy padel box since you don't have to let go off the throttle if you don't want to, so shifting happens instantly if you time it right.

 

I threw together a quick video for you as i have nothing else to do tonight :lol:

Clutch is terrible on TDU2 hopefully they will fix it, Another thing they need to fix is the brakes :mad: try to put them on lightly to gradually stop and they lock up lol.. not fun :(
