First I'd like to say if Sony is reading any of this, fanatec does not have anything to do with this them self, this is purely made from a community member.

Recently Sony announced that from now on only officially licensed wheels will work with both first and third party games from Sony.

Until now it was up to the developer to add in the peripheral support, but sony has changed the rules to supporting only licensed wheels, these being ( at the moment) the logitech g29 and two wheels from thrustmaster.

Thomas Jackermeier from fanatec has been negotiating with Sony for a licensed ps4 wheel, but in the latest update on the fanatec forum it is said that Sony want fanatec to bring out a seperate, lower costing wheel, leaving everyone who paid over 1000 euro/dollar for the clubsport wheel base v1 and 2 in the dust.

If you are csw b v1/v2 owner or on the verge of buying one, wouldn't you rather invest your well earned money into a 200-300 euro/dollar rim or even better into a 200/300 euro/dollar universal hub rather than a whole new wheelbase?

I believe we can make a difference if everyone shows that they'd rather buy a new ps4 licensed rim than a new wheelbase.

Sony, I have been playing the f1 series of games, on my Fanatec CSI, rim, since launch, devastated, it is not supported, with the new f1 20016. Is this problem going to be resolved, or shall I buy an x box?

I'm not amused about the situation that i can't use my V2 Base on Assetto Corsa. What's comming next? Maybe the support on Project Cars and Dirt Rally get canncelt? What's about "This is for the Players"??!! So please bring back the Support to Fanatec.

It is simple, if I have to downgrade to a worst base I will sell my ps4 and switch to Xbox. I would really prefer to stay on ps4 but I like to much my clubsport base. Please release a rim or a hub

http://cronusmax.com "For the first time ever, CronusMAX now offers support for a full range of Fanatec Racing wheels on the PlayStation 4 – as long as the wheel supports PS3 mode, they’re good to go. The amazing PS4 Wheel Edition Mode now gives the ability to connect Fanatec Wheels with Full Force Feedback Support, including support for pedals, shifters and other add-ons, all without the need for a computer to be connected to the console or any software plug-ins. This is what the Fanatec Racing Wheel community has been waiting for! So you have a CSW V2 and want to play F1 2016 or Assetto Corsa on the PS4? You got it!"

The fanatec wheels can't be compared with a thrustmaster. Please sony, go for a licensed fanatec rim.
