Clubsport DD not having Playstation support?
Hello
What is the reason for Clubsport DD (non-+ version) not having Playstation support?
The difference between 15nm and 12nm is probably not noticable in games such as Gran Turismo 7, it is a great shame that we are forced to pay 999€ instead of 699€ for the + version which is physically identical, just with less features enabled.
Are there plans to release a Clubsport DD "Pro" variant like you have done with the CSL DD which simply enables the PS5 support?

PS support only comes through a PS security chip built into the CS DD+.
There are no plans to release a regular non-PS-compatible CS DD with 15 Nm at this point, no.
I'm pretty sure that's not what he's asking. I think he wants a PS-compatible CS DD (12Nm). (To which I'm also pretty sure the answer is "no".)
The answer would be basically the same: There are no plans to release a PS-compatible CS DD "Pro" with just 12 Nm at this point, no.
Genuine question - as a Fanatec beta tester are you privy to Fanatec management's future planning, product development and market strategy? Or are you speaking as a user making an educated guess?
The answer was officially given in interviews at the Expo.
As not everyone watches every video with every interview from the Expo, not everyone here can know that this was already officially confirmed that there are no plans - at this point - in this regard so I only write what was mentioned officially at the Expo to give this official information to everyone. Also note that this is information as of now, therefore I explicitly mentioned the words "at this point", things can change in the future of course but for this very moment the answer is just a "no".
The question I always have is "Does Playstation take the entire $150 of the GT DD Pro?" as a licensing fee?
I have always found it absurd that PS, Xbox,VR even charge a fee for peripheral licensing. It's just a cost that gets put on to consumers and a hurdle to a pronounced gaming experience.
Might as well add a licensing fee to monitor brands at this point.
Makes me so sad. :(
