It's really sad when a guy from thrustmaster needs to come here with his marketing bullshit to sell the wheel. It's like they know it's shit but attractive wheel. I've only heard bad stories about this POS wheel.

Thrustmaster has never been good and never will. Their products can be thrown out to garbage bin straight away.

It's time for you to make something that lasts more than a few weeks!

You just quoted what I was thinking...

It's really sad when someone feels they need to create an account on a forum for a game the probably don't play. just so he can flame a manufacturer of a wheel he probably can't afford or have used.

Yes, I did the account just to say that. I just need to get my word out. No need to thank me for admitting it.

nobody thanked you. and nobody asked you to admit anything. unless you feel you're lying...

Copy from InsideSimRacing:

"149 euro only the new wheel to apply on the T500 for the owners,
599 euros the integral T500 F1
avaible from 23 september"

I'd rather wait for the new Fanatec wheels.

And I wouldn't really want a Ferrari rim either.

Luckily, Thrustmaster weren't really planning on selling just one unit to you...
in all honesty, the Thrustmaster looks like a monster. way out of my budget but for sure it looks the part.

Point being?

Quote from Bose321 :

Nobody really cares that you're waiting for the fanatec wheel. I still can't believe you actually write reviews for games. your posts on this forum (about hardware and software)are minimal at best. they offer 0 input and are boring. If only you put a bit more effort into your posts, they could be quite a good read. but you always choose the easy option of slamming something you don't own.
Just on looks alone, the Thrustmaster looks 100 times better than any (consumer) wheel on the market. yes the price is a bit on the steep side but, you have to admit, cheap is something it doesn't look like.

Too bad it isn't as good as you think it looks.

Quote from Bose321 :

seems you missed a few words i wrote. here they are but this time they're not surrounded with other big words like "the" or "and". take your time and be sure you understand before you make another post.

Quote from dadge :

Nobody really cares

And you're the most important person in the world, everyone cares about your awesome opinion.


oh wait...

I think this is Thrustmaster T500 RS thread and it would be nice to write bad and good things about T500 RS,put some new pictures and not comparable with other wheels (there is a second thread for that).

Only bad thing is fan but I replace with new one and put another one in case that cool the PBC board
To another do not have any criticis.

oh wait...

nobody said i was the most important person in the world. i didn't say i was the most important person in the world. what i add to this forum is a bit of humour. what do you add?
you're undeniably a fanboy. if fanatec made track suits, i think you'd buy one. it's not often your posts exceed the 2 sentence mark, i suppose we should be thankful you're limiting the crap we have to read.

Thought of a work around. Don't worry, the context has not been affected. OOOOSH!

Quote from dadge :

could you provide a link to this iracing mod please?

Quote from dadge :

i hope that's not you bud. i hope you have much less Fudgie McPackerbung ones that don't burn eyes as much.

Quote from dadge :

i usually got for the "it's already been played" finishing move. or "yesh sure, let me build up to it...mwaaaahhh"

awww, i have a fan. you've shown 8 posts out of nearly 5000. it also seems you struggle to count to two accurately. there's two posts you quoted with more than 2 sentences(4 if we count "mwaaaahhh" and "OOOOSH" as sentences in the last quotes). That's 50% of the quotes you've made that had more than 2 sentences in it. thanks for your verbal face-plant. you're getting good at it now dude. 9 sentences in this one. i can break it down if it's too much for you.
