I am trying to play the PC version, but my car keeps accelerating and braking by itself and I can't do anything to fix it, what is this? I use a Xbox360 Controller and Windows 7

EDIT: I made a video to show the issue I'm having right now.

Please ignore the freezes at the begining of the video, it's the recording software issue not an in-game problem


EDIT 2: I found the solution atleast for controller users that are having the same issue, just reduce the deadzone on the input controls until the gas and brakes stops being activated

Try recalibrating it, this is usually caused by deadzones i guess.
I used to have this problem (turning left) with my X360 controller, but it doesn't happen with my DualShock 4.

Did you even read the topic properly? It's not a calibration issue, it's like the game is pressing the gas, brake and turning left by itself.

It is a known problem. This preliminary fix should address it: viewtopic.php?f=524&t=37764

Cool, it fixes the fact that it turns left all the time, but it still accelerates and brakes non stop, this is unplayable .

Oh yeah I forgot to say, I use windows 7 not 10

Can you use the controller re-mapping function to figure out what axis is causing this problem? Maybe by messing with remapping a bit you can figure out what the problem is...
And make sure that it goes away when you unplug your controller.

Strange that the patch fixed this problem for some people, but not for others! I use windows 7 too and it was fixed.

Check in your controls to which axis the gas & brakes are really assigned, and select different axes perhaps.

No luck yet, something is just broken and I can't figure out what, I can't play this game at all like this.

If you have a razer device (like Nostromo or Orbweaver), see this : viewtopic.php?f=524&t=37780
