Issues with motion sickness?

[Cunk]

I don't recall ever having motion sickness from a game, but there is something going on in this game that makes it very hard to look at and I can't figure it out. Motion blur is off, FOV is high, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Anyone else?

Have you looked at the settings? Under the "Game experience" tab or something similar (I think the second tab from the left). There are some settings against motion sickness. For example, less "wobble". Try out :)

Already did that before posting, first thing I turned off.

Thank you for mentioning those settings. I'm on a super ultrawide and also experiencing a lot of motion sickness while trying to play. I'll check those out and see if they help.

I thought it was me, three times playing, regardless of settings when I park in the garage for the first time I am literally too sick to keep playing.

For me, on-screen effect you get when you're hurt was the biggest offender, feels a bit dizzy when it's showing.

Same here. Did set FOV to the max, disabled bobbing before even starting the game. Not sure what triggers it, but as soon as I’ve arrived to the garage place I was really dizzy and had to stop playing. Gonna give it another shot later on, cause I was really looking forward to this one.

Settings arent helping after a while I have to stop.
I dont get this from any other game :(

* motion blur
* aboratic chrome-something
* head bob
* poor frametime
* odd fov

those are the primary motion sickness reasons in games

that's a fov calculator. check the video on the page for more info. it helps to determine what fov to use, how far to put you rmonitor, etc

I have not experienced motion sickness but I would like to make a friendly suggestion. When capturing wide angle shots there is often a fish eye effect causing distortion as you get further from center. I propose lowering the FOV and even adding the vignette (I think that's an option in this game). It could be distorted just enough where it doesn't look bad but feels just a little off.

Yeah I've got an ultra wide, and tried playing on the TV. I just feel so sick. Like headaches, nausia, hot sweats. Really bad and I don't know why. This is the 2nd time a game has ever made me feel unwell. Normally I'm fine but something just doesn't agree with me.

Take off all the stickers and the nausea should go away

I messed with all the settings and couldn't get it good enough. I think it has to do with how bumpy the driving is. Some racing games have a "lock camera to horizon" setting which makes the horizon relatively stable even if the car is moving up and down. I think that could help a lot. I could not really figure out what the camera settings were supposed to be set to, a guide for motion sickness affected players would be helpful as well. For now I have to refund even though the game is really cool, just can't tolerate the sea sickness.

I get car sickness bad, cant be a passenger. This was making me sick, but I got use to it after I rushed off-road tires. This reduced the "tilting" the car does while offroading, which I noticed was giving me pangs of nausea right away. Basically the only setting that helped me was the instant car boarding animation since I get in and out so much by accident.

Just take it slow and take a lot of breaks. The beginning of the game is really not motion sickness friendly, theyre showing off this crazy marty mcfly car and all these explosive vertigo inducing anomalies, all the while 3 different characters are narrating entire paragraphs into your ear non-stop. It's basically hell, I almost refunded it.

After about 2 or 3 hours, I've been outside of or working on the car just as much as driving it, the larger breaks in between keep my inner ear settled enough to not think about it as much now

It's rare I get motion sickness from a game, but the whole intro up to garage made me feel like I had to puke. I took a break, couldn't save yet (ugh) and fixed up the car. Even in the garage I was feeling it a little. I switched to an Xbox controller, it helped a tiny bit. I'm not sure what it is, but it feels like when I play a VR game, it's the way the game moves as you look around is making me ill.
