Re: GAME IS UNPLAYABLE ON VR

Hate being this person but VR is almost unplayable (for me.) The visual's and performance are an absolute mess. I've never had any of  EA F1 games before this. I was honestly expecting a huge difference compared to other VR sim's "in a good way" seeing this is a big company  and a new release. Boy was I wrong!  No mouse menu support or vr controller support? Feel like i'm back on my dev kit one, the game looks from that time frame. I don't know if the shaking is "porpoising" or performance issues. However that "porpoising" happens even when I'm sitting in the garage. I may record what I see via my headset for a visual POV. I'm just a bit burnt out from all this problem solving at the moment and wanted to give some feedback regarding the experience. I honestly want this to work!

New install of windows drivers everything up to date (BIOS/Chipset/GPU with DDU clean)

I've played with PC power settings, NVIDIA control panel settings. from Oculus refresh rate to resolution, to the debug tool settings "many profiles and variations.

I haven't tried using side quest profile settings.

Running over Virtual Desktop Streamer connection at 1200mbs. Didn't try over link cable, USB c/c which is 3gig connection. I'd rather not use link cable. I may test it out.

I purchased EA's subscription to get early access and out of the time owning it I've literally spent 4 or 5 figuring out the GUI but mostly playing with settings and testing them. None of which have made any difference. 

However on flat screen the game runs beautiful looks amazing. 2k 165hz everything on max 100+ FPS on bench.

Now, would I recommend this game to anyone in vr? Probably not, at least not with a similar system, or less. I'm just in shock that Modded Assetto Corsa given the age of it is not even comparable regarding performance and visuals. Running Content Manager with version 0.179 SOL 2.2 with 2022 F1 car pack from SDD.

Unfortunately at this point in time I'm disappointed in the amount of time it has taken to produce 0 results which are somewhat playable. I don't think my VR standards are high?

I'll be going back to AC until my triple monitor setup is ready then I'll give this game another try then.
