Why manual transmissions are so important

Many people have the luxury of a controller, and some even have full sim rigs. For us keyboard players, however, it is crucial that cars come in a manual transmission because it allows us to control the engine power (with realistic transmission). If not for that control, we would be stuck at full throttle no matter what. If we don't want to lose the back end in a RWD car around a corner, we can just throw it into a higher gear and keep some power.

 

ok.

 

i drive auto shitboxes with too much power on keyboard all the time, you just need to git gud.

 

if auto ruins your driving skills youre probably doing something wrong.

 

im here driving big block coronets with drums and bicycle tires and youre here complaining the instant you have to drive a automatic. bruh.

 

lol

 

The auto transmissions LOVE to make me go 3 gears up whenever I take my foot off the throttle so no thanks

 

fix your game then. that is in no way how automatics are supposed to work lmao

 

happened to me too lol

 

not sure about autos but ive heard the dcts used to be really awful

 

Yeah. It essentially worked as a manual in arcade mode IIRC
