    Kinda pointless to drift when there's not one event for it. I love drifting. Any word if there will be a drifting event in FM4 career?

    God I hope not. Drifting is what kept me away from GRiD. Liked the other aspects, but couldn't stand the drifting. If I buy a racing game, I want to
    race. Say what you like, but drifting is not racing. Keep it similar to how it was in FM3...drifting is there if you want to do it, but don't force me to do it to progress in my career.

    Hello JOHN MOTT1,

    Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

    I can see that you are having drifting issues with you Xbox controller. Let me see how I can assist you with this concern.

    However, in your isolated case, we’d like to know more about it in details so that we can provide a more accurate resolution for you. To start, please provide us information/answer on the following questions:

    • What platform are you playing (Xbox Console, PC or phone)
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done?
    • If you are on a PC, may I ask for Xbox app and Gaming services version?
      • Xbox app > select Profile picture > Settings > About.
    • What are the affected games?
    Meanwhile, here are methods we can perform to try and fix the issue.

    Update your Xbox Wireless Controller

    Follow the troubleshooting found on this link; How to fix drift on an Xbox Series X/S controller (msn.com)

    Use compressed or pressurized air

    Drift is often caused by debris being stuck around the components of the joystick. Using a can of compressed or pressurized air can dislodge that debris, which stops something from drifting the joystick. Make sure your controller isn’t turned on when you do this.

    Aim the nozzle around the joystick area and use short bursts to blow away the debris. Move the joystick around as you apply the compressed air to make sure every area around the joystick’s interior gets some air. Connect your controller back to your Xbox Series X|S and test it to see if drift continues to plague your controller.

    Troubleshoot your Xbox Wireless Controller
