WRC Generations Throttle Pedal Dead Zone “Working as Designed”

Kylotonn have posted on Reddit to confirm that after their last update throttle is “working as designed” and the fact that it is unresponsive until nearly fully-pressed is “normal auto-gear box behaviour of the car”.

This is confusing because, as commenters confirm in the Reddit thread and all over social media, if you set the gearbox to fully manual the throttle still does the same thing.

Reddit text:

Hello drivers,

When we released the latest update on Friday, December 2 we addressed a major issue with the throttle:

• Fixed a throttle issue where it was only effective when pressed at near maximum

Today we wanted to provide more details about the current state of the throttle as some of you still consider this technical aspect as not properly working. On our side, we consider that following last week fixes the throttle is now working as designed.

This is a notion of settings purely related to driving and here it doesn’t reflect a problem with the accelerator or even with your peripheral, this is the normal auto-gear box behaviour of the car.

We are keeping a close eye on your feedback and reports of other issues posted here and on other social channels in order to improve the quality of WRC Generations as we have done so far since the game’s release.

Thank you for your understanding!
