Just a warning to any potential motion sick gamers, game has no fov option and the camera is very close to the player model. I personally had to return it

Yeah...I played the game for a few hours earlier and been sick to death for a while now =p

There's a FOV fix for the game...but I don't know if it's up to date

The only thing I saw involved using a memory editor, so I'm out on that. Far as I'll go is modifying a config file, as soon as memory editors come into play I'm out. Too many anti cheats on my computer, can't risk it

...It's a 3rd person camera. You can see more with it than you could than if it was 1st person...

There is a fov mod on the web for Control.

Why even comment with nothing to contribute, I personally experience motion sickness from the games camera your opinion on it isn't relevant. I refunded the game for this reason

It's 2020 and if the option isn't there and the default camera makes me sick and adjusting FOV is beyond a config file edit or in-game setting it's not worth it

Why blame a game for your whimsiness? It is not relevant to us either, neither is your whining considering that YOU are to blame rather than any game.

I suggest you take some motion sickness medication before playing, thats probably the only thing you can do to avoid feeling sick while playing.

That's not how motion sickness works buddy.

Since it is not how motion sickness works a FOV change will not change motion sickness either.

Training does help though. Meaning the more often you do what causes your motion sickness the more likely your body adapts to it.

Even bigger monitors can cause motion sickness at the start and then it goes away because we simply adapt to situations.

So.....when people with motion sickness plays a game with a FOV of 50 and get issues and they then raise the FOV to 90 and don't get motion sickness anymore....it's not the FOV's fault?

I couldn't play Borderlands 1 since it didn't allow a FOV change but once the mod came out to fix it I could. So I'm not sure what you're talking about mate.

FOV is a huge issue for people with motion sickness from gaming, and yes, switching screen size can cause something that is similar to it as well.

I suffer from motion sickness in games for about 25 years now and I can tell you the following:

1. A bigger FoV does help. More than anything else.
2. Training does not. It only makes you feel miserable and ultimately vomit. Time after time after time.
3. Bigger monitors don't create motion sickness. It's the other way around, they can actually help. That's one of the reasons I got an ultrawide 34'', because it sometimes helps with my motion sickness. Depends on the implementation though, if the game only stretches and cuts off top and bottom, it doesn't do anything.

So if you've never experienced it, or only very lightly, please don't lecture others on what helps and what does not. Thanks. Also, if you don't need it, that's great. I'm sincerely happy for you. But please don't just assume that nobody else needs it. We just want to enjoy games like everyone else does, not take away your candy.

Do yourself a favour and Google this exact phrase: "FoV and Motion Sickness." You will find tons of articles on the correlation between video games, Field of View, and Motion Sickness. Please educate yourself, because it is quite obvious that you don't know what you're talking about, and every post you make makes that more and more painfully obvious.

I swear, sometimes there's just no fixing some kinds of stupid. I tried. Sorry people with Motion Sickness.

Yet you claimed several times that FOV isn't the issue and that people are just stupid blaming it on that.

Gotta love people who are blaming a game for them getting motion sickness while gaming. Just stop being such a wuss.

You need to chill. Just because you don't experience motion sickness doesn't mean others don't.

I dont need to do anything... Motion sickness is just about a game if there is head bobbing or weapon bobbing like in ARC. Since there is nothing like that in Control it is about the person not the game, thus blaming the game rather than taking meds against it is pointless!

There's no such thing as motion sickness medication, and man you're an idiot lol

Adding FOV options does nothing to harm anyones experience, it just enables more people to enjoy the game. It's why hundreds of video games include the option, including pretty much every single game in my library. Without it, if the games default FOV is too low. I can't play. Simple as that
