    The only thing missing from PSVR2 from GT7 is the leaderboard it makes it harder when doing daily races not knowing who pitted and how far you are from the leader or how far the person behind you is. Besides that it’s a great experience

    • @thecasualracinggamer
      @thecasualracinggamer  7 місяців тому +5

      Yes and it's crazy they have not updated this! But for VR, it's worth the sacrifice.

      You’re completely correct, PSVR2 is great but not knowing where other drivers are time wise and when ppl pit is a big disadvantage especially on longer races.
      Maybe we need a UA-camr to push this with polyphony. 😉

      For reals I had a warranty on an ice machine that was $600. They gave me $600 in credit and I didn't know what to do with it so I got the psvr headset. I already had Gt7 and I already loved the game man was I missing out with the out. Love it now I want to upgrade my g923 to the pro version

    Great stuff, they need to do more MX-5 races. look how popular it is on iRacing. Totally right about Braking differences in a race compared to qualify. I think if most drivers see that we would get less smash up carnage on Lap 1 of races. Ive been on iRacing all week, but gonna give this a try race A today. I really like Tsukuba Circuit too.
    With you on PSVR2 as well. I think if It doesn't sell they could do $120 off and bundle it with GT7 and Call of the Mountain. They have a backlog of about 1 million. If they did that it could possibly revive the headset. But I think a lot of PSVR2 failure is down to the massive amount of negative press, Thanks IGN (remember you cant see IGNorance with out IGN) and Bloomberg. Some content creators really hate the PSVR2, and a lot of people slag it off without even trying it.

    ahh man, thats my combo! :D and dr is back.. Love to see it ! Also driving just in vr gt7 ;) usually starting 1st in this one and usually some donkeys just pushes me out in the turn one, messing the whole race up ! :D but track and car combo is a gem.
    wait, psvr2 will work on pc ??? that would be awesome, could play asseto in vr too ! :D
    and you are 100% right.. once u tried racing in vr.. thres no way back :D it just feells to fake watching into the screen.. UNLESS you gonna make 3 cuurved screens rig ! :D otherwise, it just doesnt give the joy anymore as it does in the vr ;)

    Have you heard of the Globular Cluster CMP2 comfort mod for psvr2? I received mine last week and am really enjoying it. I didn’t think psvr2 was uncomfortable to begin with… I guess I was wrong. It does add weight, but most of that weight is in the back so it balances the unit out.

    • @thecasualracinggamer
      @thecasualracinggamer  7 місяців тому

      I have not. I use a headband under the headset that helped with the comfort as I find it not so comfortable without it for long sessions.

    • @tockc
      @tockc 7 місяців тому

      Yes, I also use a thin Buff brand headband. I didn’t like the feeling of the vinyl material on my forehead, and it helped with the sweat. One thing to note about the globular cluster is that it adds bulk to the back of your head that can interfere with your sitting position if you have a headrest. Check out some reviews on it, I say it’s worth it for those that VR a lot.

    Race A is a blast this week. I'll keep trying to beat your 1:03 qualifier. That first turn.. you gotta ride inside the turn & let everyone else ram around on the outside. A good thing about this race for VR users.. you don't need the HUD at all. Just go when the red lights on the right go out.

    The thought of no PSVR2 on GT8 is horrible GT7 is hands down one the best PSVR2 games. The fact that some people refuse to use it because they think they would be slower is crazy it adds so much more excitement to the game.

    • @thecasualracinggamer
      @thecasualracinggamer  7 місяців тому +1

      People can ran fast on a controller. VR is definitely not slowing you down. 😄 I really hope PD doesn't remove VR support for the next version of the game. My concern is they have not released a VR update for the game since release.

    • @Necu58
      @Necu58 7 місяців тому +1

      Honestly when I first started playing VR my lap times was a bit slower but I think that’s more because I went from bumper view to VR and being in the driver seat changes the braking points but I quickly got use to it. I have not used flat screen since I just can’t bring myself to play unless I it’s VR

    • @thecasualracinggamer
      @thecasualracinggamer  7 місяців тому +1

      Yup, if you are used to a flat screen, hopping into VR will not just instantly make you faster. You need time to adjust and get used to it.

    Guys do you think your faster with vr? I just can’t decide if I am. I’m gonna test tonight I’ll do 100 laps on vr and 100 on flat screen. But I’m use to flat screen so that has the advantage.

    • @thecasualracinggamer
      @thecasualracinggamer  7 місяців тому

      If you are used to a flat screen, you will be faster on a flat screen. You need time to adjust to the differences until you can run the same lap times or better in VR. For me, I can't run a decent time on a flat screen because I never do it, so I'm not adjusted to it.

    Without PSVR2 I wouldn't play GT7 anymore.
    I can't go back to flat.
    I have over 600 hours in the game. 500 hours of this in VR.
    I'm not sure I will buy GT8 without VR at all. Maybe in a sale.
    I think I'll move to PCVR racing before I race flat.

    This race, you are missing out on tuning your car, seriously, I think this is the first time in Group “A” you can not only change suspension but camber and torque and on and on. Experiment people. Not just traction control. Love race A and also B this week. And agree CAs, can’t and haven’t raced again in flat screen.

      I dont really notice Mura in GT7, more in RE games. it definitely effects some people more than others. One of my friends tried it and couldn't even see it when looking for it. But one thing its shown me if once I know its there I cant un see it, and its made me notice it on my Quest 3, very subtle though. You can look through it though and forget about it.

    Returned my Psvr2 after trying it in GT7, I couldn't get over how terrible the image quality was (moire, chromatic aberration, blurry except the exact center). The immersion and sense of speed is better than a flat screen but it was like viewing a PS2 game. Not worth the asking price.
