Are you faster with the PSVR2?

[POWrider62]

Other factors that may make you drive slower in VR than flat screen is the unintentional desire to rest your arm on the door to enjoy the sun (and perserved warmth) when driving an open seater in the sun.

Only for the illiusion to be ruined when your elbow discovers the door is not really there!

😀👍 exactly i want to rest m arm on the window. It’s amazing just to drive in VR.

All of that is true and I understand your point.
In my case I still prefer the inmersion of VR recognizing that Im giving that handicap.


Yes, Iam faster with VR and I no longer can hit an apex on a flat screen

I wish I could do that. I do enjoy driving in VR, there really is no other comparable way to race when it comes to immersion. I’m hopeful that PD will add the full HUD option at some point in time, but I won’t hold my breath lol. And to be fair, I’m not that much slower in VR, couple of tenths a lap at best, depending on the car/track combo.

really crossing fingers for an update this November in line with the PS5 Pro intro so that we have full HUD customization option both on screen and in VR2...

that is way overdue.... i should be able to aligned my on-screen HUD however we want...

One interesting thing is that professional simulators, the ones used by pro race drivers, don't use VR.

Maybe because VR is not yet wide spread....
Give it some times and VR will easily take over screens..

Yes I am faster and more consistent in VR.

PSVR2 with Trophy rig, Logitech Pro wheel, two Buttkickers and Simhub… It’s actually scary how immersive it becomes.

I'm faster with VR. Nearly all my wins against Sophy are because of VR. Look to apex can't be understated. If I race Sophy in 2D I come in 2nd or 3rd.
