Gullbrann Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Heya! When I first bought Euro Truck Simulator 2, I where using a Keyboard. After a few years, I decided to buy a wheel. I decided that Logitech G29 was the perfect one for me! In my opinion, a wheel is the best, and most nice to drive with!

Welshie Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 In my time i've used Keyboard, Gamepad and 2 wheels. Id say honestly the winner is Gamepad for me, its very convenient and a lot more relaxed that using a wheel, don't get me wrong i loved my g920 + th8a shifter, was a great combo could run a proper split 12 speed box and felt great for driving, but with the wheels come stuff you dont get with a controller. The Logitech software is worse than useless, you could be driving fine one night, then the next night it just will not work, or has some issue that forces you to restart and recalibrate, which can turn an hour drive into a 3 hour ordeal which takes away all the fun. Also storage! If you haven't got a large amount of space for a wheel it can make it a pain to play other games. whereas with my controller, i can make all my buttons and still run a 12 speed, all i had to do to play is plug it in, i've driven much more mileage with a controller than i have with a wheel, i've even driving 5000+ miles in one go with a controller. So in my mind as much a wheel is great experience i believe that for overall fun and convivence you cannot beat a controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuanK. Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Before buying my steering wheel I played with a keyboard, and it really is a huge change, today I play with a steering wheel and I make manual changes with the keyboard.

Wraith645 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I used mouse when I first started, but soon i got a controller and its so much nicer to drive if you can't afford a wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inklink Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I use a wheel to drive, but most of the time I use automatic transmission because I'm lazy, but at times I may also use my H-Shifter :). Usually I stick to automatic though, simply because of the simplicity. I used to also use mouse steering, but I got away from it because it was uncomfortable and because I wanted for my steering to be a bit more precise. --------------------------------------------------------------- Rules | Recruitment | Feedback | Support | Guides | Report System | Appeal System | Knowledge Base --------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PallePuh Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I started on keyboard and was playing keyboard for a long time, around 2 years ago I bought a wheel (G29) and it must've been one of the best purchases I've made. My experience just got better and more enjoyable. I can't even imagine going back to keyboard now that I've played with wheel Human Resources & Admissions staff + Driver for Global Cargo Discord: PallePuh#0001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Crumb Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I use my old Xbox 360 controller, I don't have the money or space for a steering wheel set-up or I would surely use that instead. I also only have a laptop, so quick and convenient is the way forward for me. My bindings are: Accelerate: Right trigger Brake: Left trigger Steering: Left stick Looking around: Right stick Shift up: A Shift down: B Set cruise control: X Windscreen wipers toggle: Y Headlights toggle: Up on d-pad Full beams toggle: Left on d-pad Full beams flash: Right on d-pad Hazard lights: Down on d-pad Indicators: Left and right shoulder bumpers Horn: R3 (click right stick) It works well for me, the only problem is the stick is a bit too sensitive for small steering corrections sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid1651 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I use mouse and keyboard, but I would really like to try a wheel! It's more smooth and I think It gives more simulation vibes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrik. Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I have been driving with a steering wheel and pedal shifters for years now. Gives the most precise and fastest response in my opinion. I still use my keyboard for everything which doesn't have to be done very quickly (Cameras, Trailer attaching etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DJ Trans*051] djmtrlltc Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I use keyboard since I dont have a sterring wheel. Playing with keyboard is kind of unplesent, cuz we cannot make sharp turns in a relatively high speed since we have to 'wait' for the steering wheel in the game to move.

"RICKY" Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 No doubt about the wheel (G29) I think I don't know how to play in any other way, it gives another feeling to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan22 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Heyaaaaaa! Thanks for the question. I was playing on keyboard for probably 4-5 years till recently I discovered an old logitech controller that I didn't use since I got it brand new more than 10 years ago so it's time came now. Much better and easier to play with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
