    PD could fix all those issues so quickly by getting rid of all the race info and just giving us a spotter talking to the driver and giving us all the info. Another plus it would be even more immersive. And fix the view from horizon to the car

      @ I know we won’t and it’s a shame because it would add so much more emmersion to the game but fingers crossed for GT8. Although you did a great job in your video showing the difference between ps5 and ps5 pro, $700 is just too much to pay for shadows and reflections which is the main fix.

    The horizon lock is there to avoid motion sickness. That's part of what makes GT7 so accessible compared to other VR racing games. It's a feature, not a bug.
    I doubt it'll change as it was a very deliberate choice but it honestly would be great to have the option to lock the camera with the car if one so desired.

    I have been using VR for over a year on GT7. Im not a picky person, so for me it was the best way to experience GT7 in the base console. Due to black friday sales, i managed to pick up a slim disc ps5 for $629aud, then took the drive and drive cover off, then traded it in with 4 x games i dont play anymore for a value of $601aud towards a pro. So got a pro with disc drive for basicslly the same price as the digital version of the pro.
    But regardless, the experience in VR on the pro for me is night and day better with the LOD and clarity. The frame rate with the reproduction setting turned on is a lot smoother also.
    The issue with the race time is slightly annoying BUT not a deal breaker at all, as you usually only check that when on straights anyway when you're not moving your head.
    Not aimed at you, but i find a lot of people over sell it or a lot are really picky or conpare it to a PC running a 4080, which the gpu in itself is more expensive than this console.
    Just my 2c.

    • @Brocky05
      @Brocky05 11 годин тому +1

      Side note, I wouldn't suggest someone go and upgrade to a pro just for it unless they have the spare cash to do so. The experience on base console for me is still amazing, just a little blurrier on text. On pro the text in your peripheral vision is clearer

    • @thecasualracinggamer
      @thecasualracinggamer  10 годин тому +1

      I think when you put out a console for $700, expectations are going to be high on what it should be able to produce compared to a console almost half the price. I don't think anyone is expecting a 4080 experience, but PSVR2 has an advantage of eye tracking to help it perform better on less power. I am still not convinced that they can't deliver higher frames at a native resolution. Heck, turn down reflections, shadows, and backgrounds and deliver a native 90fps.

    Also... It seems to me the reprojection option only refreshes the cars and track at the full 120Hz based on where you're looking. UI items seem to run at 60 FPS which causes the ghosting/glitchiness on times, etc. the text in the track itself on signs, etc, looks crisp and perfect.

    That being said, how many people think ps5 is expensive and then renew there phone contact to buy a phone worth over £1k every 2yrs, and then use it for hardly anything else than they did the previous one 🤔.

      I couldn’t resist and got the Pro yesterday. I hadn’t played in a few weeks so I played on the original PS5 in VR for a few hours before trying it on the Pro for another few hours. I’m honestly blown away and it’s better than I expected. I always hate the vision doubling of reprojection, and the new method is just brilliant.

    My dude, what would be great is if you stopped the car off road while facing the track on a high speed segment. When the cars shoot pass from left to right, you will clearly see if rejection is present or not, on various settings, while keeping your head still. I'm guessing one car will look like two, the second being like a holograms trailing behind the real car, only visible in the headset's display.

    Funny. Online all people are banging on about is how much better pro vr is and yet this is the first thing I noticed with the hud. I tried it for 45 mins and genuinely it made me ill. Gave me vr sickness. First time in 230 hours.
    The hud looks like when you try and read something cross eyed. 😂
    I will stick with the base ps5 console for my sim. How can they realease this for ps5 pro in that state. Its a competitive game and im sure they want vr players to have a disadvantage. We never got all the hud info. Never gave us distance info for cars in front and behind which is required info.
    Especially as we vr racers are put in the same lobbies as thouse who can have bonnet view for better visibility Especially over crests etc.
    So now they have ruined the little info that we have.
    Having no reprojection was nice..... but not at the expense of this.
    Like I said.... made me ill. Wont use the pro for gt7 vr.
    Thank you for being one of the very few with decent eyesight and honest takes.
    Worst thing is is this seems like a bug or something on the hud...... but I have ZERO confidence in pd bothering to fix it. They have added ZERO quality of life improvements to vr since it arrived. You still start races too close to the wheel and not in correct positions. Still no vr only lobbies. Still not full infomation on hud for vr. Even If they had a team radio chat to give you the information instead or something. Nothing.
    Very disappointing imo.
