Hey pilots,
 
We're investigating further optimization in a future patch. In the meantime, here are two tips that can help improve your experience:

  • Turn off all Motion Smoothing
  • Keep in mind you'll need an incredibly powerful system to run VR in a (per eye) high resolution; e.g. 2x 4k.

Hey glad to see this being looked at. 

Pimax 8KX, i9900k, 2080 Ti.

I was running Motion Smoothing but one of the earlier game patches broke it somehow - now it randomly introduces massive stutter to either sp or mp scenarios and becomes unplayable. The frame rate no longer locks at half rate and goes higher. A restart of the game can fix it and the same scenario works again. Inconsistent, but unplayable when it happens.

So I've turned it off for now, but at native 4k res I get about 50-55FPS with a mix of game settings. I hope the Motion Smoothing bug gets fixed.

Regardless it would be great to be able to turn off the Parallel Projections option to avoid the double vision and get a significant performance boost, thanks.
