Question [Newbie] GT5P and G25 - does the clutch actually work?

Hi

Got a G25 a couple of weeks ago and only just trying it on GT5P.

Does the clutch actually work on the game? I say this because I played a few games with everything set to manual and yet, when I depress the clutch and hit the accelerator, the car revs and speeds up. Not what you'd expect when the clutch is down?


I'm guessing I am missing an option to enable full clutch control??

Clutch control is in there, but its not very well implemented regarding its activation. To activate the clutch you need to press the triangle button when either sat on the grid before the start of a race or as you are doing a rolling start before you cross the line.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. Sounds a bit disappointing. Especially when I upgraded my MOMO to a G25 for it

Maybe the full release of GT5 will do better with it.

Yes, I'm sure that full support will feature in GT5, however, even without the clutch though, the sense of being connected to the road is extremely well conveyed via the G25, its a wonderful wheel !
