f1 2024 PSvr2
Formula 1 2024 MUST come with PSVR2 availability. GT7 is definitely a game changer for lovers of speed and racing simulators. The Formula 1 category is by far one of the most modern sports categories...
I understand those who have PSVR2 think it’s awesome and I’m sure it is. But you also need to take into account other factors. Most people are not bothered about VR. Especially at the price. Huge amount of PS5 owners don’t even play racing games. I’m also willing to bet majority or people that play GT7 don’t use or even consider using PSVR2. Then factor in, as I’ve said before only 2 AAA games support it. Both are Sony games. If they didn’t support it the only other games that do are average AA games at best. Sony have themselves reported they are disappointed with sales of PSVR2 and are now working on adapting PSVR2 to work on PC. Because PC doesn’t just use VR for gaming. It’s has endless amounts of Applications it’s used for.
Then EA like all AAA publishers and developers don’t set trends. They follow them. They wait for other developers to come up with a successful new IP. Then copy it.
Until there are many many more GOOD games that support PSVR2. Which people want. You won’t see any of the big developers adding support on its games. Especially as they can add it to any of their games after they release.
Lastly… If EA (All AAA developers) thought for a second there was profit in adding PSVR2 support to any of their current or upcoming games. They would add it. The only reason GT7 and Horizon are supported are because they are Sony games.
VR has failed to gain mainstream traction since rje 90s. Most people don’t want to or like the idea off sitting at home for extended periods with a headset on. Funny but humans actually like reality and feel uncomfortable, anxious and vulnerable when closed off from it.
Also watching news on the layoffs Sony have just made. Studios they had working on new VR titles have either been redirected to work on other projects such life service. Or been shut down. And also as I said earlier Sony are working on PSVR2 to be compatible with PC because PSVR2 are not selling. PS5 consoles sales are also down and well below expectations. I
About VR.
I have a Quest 2, bought to try F1 '22.
Dissatisfied with the experience. VR didn't wow me, the game was poor compared to F1 2021.
You're either a glasshole or you're not.
So all those nagging....you're a tiny, tiny proportion of the userbase. Sony can't sell PSVR2 to it's own customers.
Sidenote: The guy in the video has a voice that would dry water.

Not had chance to watch your video yet but that's not at all what I've heard from other sources.
It’s real simple EA, I will NOT be buying, what is basically the same game as last year if it doesn’t offer PSVR2 support. Gt7 gets 90% of my racing time because of the VR. EA, if you want my money, give me F1 in psvr2 and while your at it put psvr2 support into the WRC game too. Then I’ll start your buying games again.

At least we now officially know we won't be getting PSVR2 support for F124.
Disappointing as it'll be another year I skip the F1 games. So that's at least 71 of us (I didn't see the petition).
Be interesting to hear if those buying it think it is that much of an improvement over F123, as that is what all their resources are focused on.
@superhoops82Lee Mather from Codemasters said « it’s difficult for third-party developers to justify pouring resources into a niche product like PSVR 2.« Please tell me that the F1 24 PCVR is not a niche !!!! Anyway did you see an advertising for the PCVR feature ?? No, because isn’t good enough and is for a niche of users !!!
