Why Fanatec has Xbox hub sold out without future ETA. It sets almost all xbox option out of stock. Is there plan to discontinue xbox support?
@Maurice, I am aware it is not your responsibility, but it will be great if any colleague could clarify it. I am Xbox user and I do not have clear picture about extend setup or switch the platform and I am aware I am not the only one.
In fact, there will be a firmware update soon which enabled enhanced Xbox support ;-)
When a product gets sold out without a new ETA date when it becomes available again then it just means that we simply dont know when the product will be available again. This does not automatically mean the product is discontinued or that even a console compatibility completely gets dropped when there are still other products with the same console compatibility available. Tbh, I dont even understand how one can come to this conclusion that the Xbox support might get discontinued when just one Xbox product is temporarily sold out...
Ok, found one, ClubSport Steering Wheel Formula V2.5 X. Myabe that one is in stock if the website is telling right information. But I am not so sure about that wesite, is adding ramdom prodcuts to shopping cart and all other stuff, so maybe it is, maybe not. Login there and my shopping cart has like six rims and hubs and everything,, I have never added them there..and they are popping every time there, clearing shopping cart, chnaged browser and etc, nothin helps. When this has beem fixed, I can consider to order something, but waitedd few months already, nothing is happening.
Thx for clarify it and hopefully this firmware comes really soon... and games add functionality :)
Regarding how one come to the conclusion of xbox supports will be slowing down till finish, let me give you my observation. This is just to help you understand customer point of view:
-In last months many new products and agreement with Sony and nothing with Microfost.
-In last weeks in lenkrad section of website only 3 of 16 xbox compatible product available, rest sold out.
-there are many example of products sold out that so not come anymore (e.g. Sparco steering wheels).
-now I see bigger discount in BF is for Forza Motorsport wheel.
If we add that nobody from company clarify you are working in provide more xbox hubs... we, customers, have some doubts.
In any case I take your message to confirm this hypothesis is wrong and I will keep the idea of extend xbox setup. Unfortunately not in this BF, as there are not offer for steering wheels with the hub. Let see when it comes again
I don't like how the sale is structured, what if I want more than one product? I either pay multiple times and probably more for shipping or risk missing out on the item...
The CSL DD QR2 Ready2Race WRC Bundle is part of the sale but it is sold out apparently (due to the QR2 part being unavailable). Is it going to be restocked in time (meaning tomorrow)?
As you can see in the chart which was shared with content creators, the bundle will be sold with a metal QR2 Wheel-Side tomorrow due to the QR2 Lite Wheel-Side being out of stock in the EU.
So no, there wont be a restock of the normal version but only the Black Friday Week version with the metal QR2 (for EU) tomorrow.
thank you for your answer. Now when I click the CSL DD QR2 bundle through the Black Friday announcement, it is bundled with the QR2 Lite Wheel-Side. How can I replace it with the regular QR2 to be able to buy it as a bundle?
Just want to make sure I don't miss out on this offer, so thank you for your support!
You cant. The deals are not live yet so it just diurects to the "old" regular bundle. It should change to the "new" bundle with Metal QR2 tomorrow once the deals went live. Note that this only applies to the EU where the QR2 Lite is out of stock. In US, AU and JP the bundle will get sold with the QR2 Lite.

Are these discounts confirmed by Fanatec?
Yes.
Thx for confirm!
Then I still have the concern mencioned here:

There are no plans to drop Xbox support.

Which xbox product is available to order?

ClubSport Formula V2.5X, CSL Elite McLaren V2, CSL Elite WRC.
It would be nice if you search for "xbox" that you will find all for xbox.. Just saying.
Not very good deal for black friday i think.
Ugh no Black Friday deal on CSL Elite V2 pedals this year? The only product I was looking for....let down.
I was hoping there would be a black Friday sale on Clubsport DD+
I already have the CSL DD with the 8nm option. I was looking for more feedback, but 1K is a bit more than I want to spend.
it looks like they not even add DD2 discount like they made last year. sounds like it was one time offer only
Thx for clarify it and hopefully this firmware comes really soon... and games add functionality :)

i usually also look what others offers, fanatec is not only one who have or comes the Black Friday
