"I think you need to stop asking the question because it's totally subjective and totally down to your setup as to whether it's 'fixed'."
Nope. It's not totally subjective. There is jitter/stutter while moving your head for EVERY VR user. You can simply see it while driving ingame and looking into the corners, it's not smooth as in other VR titles.
It's been tested with multiple HMD's and it still happens with a 4090/i127000K and with everything on low. But with 90fps locked/super low frametimes etc.
It's the biggest issue of the game, since it's a VR breaking bug.
So I'm not sure what you're talking about here. IF the issue is fixed, then I'll gladly buy the game so all VR users need to know of course IF it's on their agenda or not.
"It looks like it won't be fixed"
?? where did you get that information?
"I suspect the VR implementation will be similar"
What's this assumption based on?
"You will need to wait until release and query people with the same VR headset and similar PC spec to yourself as to what their experience of the VR implementation is. "
I don't need to. I want to know it now, if this issue is on their agenda or not.
"People post here daily with game crashes and issues that I can't replicate. The game is not broken, yet people cry that it is."
This has nothing to do with the issue that I mentioned.
- @Ultrasonic_77 Thank you for your reply.
"Let's imagine that the the information given so far included a comment along the lines of 'improved VR performance'. You still wouldn't actually know if it was now in a state that you'd be happy with, would you? That's all I was saying above."
No, improved says nothing at all. I only what to know if that specific bug is fixed. IF they state that "head movement is now smooth in VR", then it's solved, if they don't state that then it's not really saying anything. But it can be explained quite easy, because it's simply saying: the bug stuttering while moving your head in VR is fixed. Done. Then it's clear for all of us.
"Anyone who doesn't feel they have enough info. or confidence should not pre-order the game but rather wait to see what actually gets released."
That's what I do. But I'm still excited for the news that the bug is fixed. I really want to get it on their agenda if it isn't already. So I didn't give up my hope. No need to be so pessimistic as @SteveJackson is here. I think that there is a serious chance that they fix it. I think a third party developer bolted on the VR implementation last year. It was definitely the worst vr racing experience on the market. The head tracking delay that made you nauseous and many things in game weren’t even rendered in 3d. It was a complete hack job and they not only did they not try to fix it, they gaslighted everyone by acting like it didn’t even exist.
I spent over 2 hours trying different settings to fix it because I refused to believe that they would sell something so bad. After 2 hours Steam won’t let you refund it so I was stuck with it. Codemasters, EA and Steam successfully lifted $89 from me but it was partially my fault for letting it happen. I won’t fall for it again.
At some point fairly soon after release, a trusted VR player will report if it’s been fixed.
- mariohomoh3 years agoHero (Retired)@GuusHugo you won't be getting that answer until the pre-release marketing kicks in high gear.
Probably not even before the review embargo ends up and reviewers give their verdict on VR.
And I mean the proper review embargo, not the content creator previews that EA does as those seem heavy scrutinized and tight on what can be commented on and what is a no-go.
And if this smoothing doesn't get a spotlight on the pre-release material, I wouldn't hold any hope of it being fixed.
Red flags and XP Boost are getting buzz already. Hard to imagine they've got much better features or fixes in stock if those two are making into the bullet points. Unfortunately VR is horrible!!
The movement of the head bug, in all possible configurations.
I hope this will be rectified in time !
to be continued....
- @Goldwyn93 to be clear, you mean in F1 2023 yes? thank you for sharing
- @Ultrasonic_77 let's imagine that instead of that vague useless line they said "fixed head tracking lag and stutter present when fps is below headset refresh rate" then OP and I and other VR players would maybe consider buying it. I'm going to make the bold prediction that it's not fixed. It's ok I love iRacing and would rather support that company instead of EA / Codemasters.
- @SteveJackson totally subjective hahahahahahhahah
- @SteveJackson it´s incredibly disingenuous to tell this person that it's "not up to scrath for you" the VR implementation was broken, anything fps below the headset refresh rate produced insane stuttering and even if you had fps above that you would have, always, head tracking lag so massive that it would make you sick. Please don't insult potential users, we are not idiots.

Why buy F1 23 without finding about user reviews if it's important to you?
Genuine question.
I have a 'supported' headset and a PC that exceeds the recommended spec. But I haven't picked it up in a year now as I was up for seeing the result. Didn't work for me.
The game supports VR. Either you complain about it, or you refund it.
I don't play enough VR to judge any title. This was the only one that piqued my interest, but it's not a core game experience for me. I'm not insulting anyone. I can set up my PC to stutter if I so choose. But I don't. I run it at a natural setting that feels good to me. I have a RT graphics card but it hammers the framerate so I turn it off. No biggy.
Some play with machines that can hit 30-60FPS and are happy. So, it is subjective.
