Analog to steer turn and accelerate? Or R2 and L2 for braking and accelerating?

Recommended Posts

One is the default setup. The other is option #2, both on a regular PS4 controller. 

I am trying to learn how to drive without any assistance and I am struggling with the default one. I would like to know (for those who do NOT use wheel) which setup they do prefer and why. To me, it seems like doing shifting with L2/R2 is more comfortable, but on the other hand, using the same for braking and accelerating is useful too. Sadly, can't use triggers for both.

Opinions?

You can change it, but i prefer accelerating/braking with R2 L2 and shifting with X and Square

Default controls for me. It's much easier getting used to shifting gears with X and Square than throttle control on different buttons. It took me some time but by now I'm very competitive with a pad with no assists against legend AI

Do you think you have more control braking and accelerating using the default option?

R2/L2 for accearations/ brake
R1/L1 for shifting
Left stick for steering

Driving without assist against wheeldrivers...

I use default but swap the shifting buttons so X is down and O is up. I use this setup on all driving games I can customise the buttons, it is what I have got use to.
