VR has broke me on GT7 im so slow on flat screen now. Great video.

[@Doughtinator]

Yeah I hear you. It’s hard to go back!

[@ticopain]

Same here. It was getting hot in the room and i was sweating in the VR headset so i tried flatscreen a bit. I was overshooting all corners, it was bad.

[@SUBZERO8K]

You said it perfectly with VR being more like driving by feeling versus flat screen being a process just watching for breaking points. That's the thing I love most about VR! It makes everything just feel more fun.

[@Doughtinator]

Yeah. It’s a FULLY immersive experience. It’s impressive!

[@AndriHersir]

I have been on the fence for a long time about getting VR and this Video was the one that convinced me to give it a try and after a week now I don't think I'll ever go back. Boy does that VR hit you in the face first time you enter a race 😅 I definitely experienced motion sickness in the first high-speed corners and drifted off track a couple of times but after 10-15 laps it was gone. I'm much better at following close and I'm also saving the car from drifts and spins alot more now. And if someone reads this who is not trying to be the best in the world, getting VR is a no brainer! The immersion! Being able to look at the car beside you through corners and dont get me started on open wheel cars OMG 🥴 Thanks for great video and getting me to jump over to VR. This made me subscribe to your channel, keep up the good work ✌️

[@Doughtinator]

Awesome. It really does. The very first time you turn the wheel your brain fully expects to feel g forces and nothing happens. It’s wild! Glad you’re enjoying it. It really feels like playing a different game sometimes.

[@HugoStiglitz88]

The most obvious thing to me is consistency. I'm IMMEDIATELY more consistent when playing in VR vs flat screen especially because I play cockpit view even on flat screen. VR makes a huge difference

[@tamasvarga67]

Personally, I don’t care which one is the fastest. With PSVR2 I’m sitting in a car that’s closest to real driving, with monitor setup I’m watching a screen doesn’t matter how big or how many.

[@Doughtinator]

Yep. I get this 100%

[@logicwar3943]

100%. I let my friend have a go. He was in a Sierra Cosworth and was amazed at the detail. He even reached up to try and open the sunroof!

[@davidgudgeon2326]

Vr 2 is miles better

[@MIKEDRIFT]

Simple, psvr2 is better than flat screen 100% .Done .

[@maveric19871]

Maybe, but the fastest way to be faster having the same skills, is to buy good pedals, it is the thing that makes the biggest difference, also good driving position.

[@ryangunit84]

I’m faster on flatscreen but have more fun in vr. So anything but sport mode I do in vr.

[@andsoitwas3046]

You're the best !! Will most likely buy a PSVR2 after this - despite the high price 😍😍😍

[@Doughtinator]

Thanks man. Wait for my full review before you fully commit. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@mattyb.5628]

Buy once, cry once. After a while you forget about how much it cost and you'll just enjoy it.

[@logicwar3943]

With all the fun I've had from this headset, the price seems like a bargain now

[@YuriPeriotto]

Used in the UK is around £250

[@Nelson_.A]

You nailed it, that's the perfect summary for the comparison.

[@tinyman392]

There are some cars I can’t seem to drive properly on flat screen. Many of the AWD hatchbacks had a tendency to just snap on me before I could react to it either visually (cockpit view) or from the force feedback. In VR, I could visually see the car actually rotate much earlier so I can actually react to the car itself. It also makes side by side racing much easier being able to just look beside you but also utilize the mirrors which are abruptly missing in cockpit view on flat screen. That amount of information that is available for me to react to makes all the difference IMO.

[@Doughtinator]

Yes I agree. I’ve noticed I can ‘feel’ a car about to snap a bit sooner in VR.

[@NoLimitSquad]

I bought the psvr2 last year. Listen, Outside of grinding LeMans for 800k, I ALWAYS play with it on. I have never experienced immersion like this before and it makes your racing experience increidble. Even the slow cars are fun! Hottake: Honda 2&4 on vr is the best experience😎

[@Doughtinator]

100% 👍🏻👍🏻

[@YuriPeriotto]

Cosworth is good too!

[@Visual_Racer]

I just got my racing sim back together, and the PSVR2 is going to be the last piece of the puzzle. Hopefully will be able to get one next month!

[@Doughtinator]

Awesome. Exciting stuff 👍🏻👍🏻

[@logicwar3943]

PSVR2 is amazing with GT7. I bought the headset for Pavlov, but I'm now totally addicted to GT7. I just wish there was more games that supported it. I'd love to play F1 on PSVR2

[@ryangunit84]

F1 & ACC have full VR support on pc. No idea why they don’t do it for psvr2

[@logicwar3943]

@@ryangunit84 It appears that anything that is also available on Xbox does not get PSVR2 support. Maybe I'm wrong with that analysis

[@Xtreme6184]

Great video mate

[@Doughtinator]

Thanks man 👍🏻👍🏻

[@davidshekhter5284]

VR is the only reason I continue playing GT7 and the only reason I invested $2,000 in a direct drive wheel and aluminum rig and racing seat. Without it the game would be collecting dust at this point. Also this morning daily race B it was incredible watching the two cars in front battle while I was following along in VR I felt like I was literally in the race car at the racetrack in my own little world and of course the two fools slowed eachother down and I passed them in the last corner The point being the immersion is second to none.

[@tamasvarga67]

Absolutely… I never get bored with VR2

[@Doughtinator]

Yeah for sure. After trying it for a bit it’s a literal game changer! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@markpacker6951]

My brain couldn't work out the flat screen and apexs. I was a person who would have never played online racing without vr2. When I first got vr, I spent 2 weeks just looking around the cockpit and running into stuff. But after a while playing, I felt more connected to the game. I start finding apexs and winning races, I can only put it down to leaving a flat screen in the past. OH, and make sure you re-callabrate your head set every few days. You complained about the message on the screen. Wait till you vr cant detect you play area and bumps you out of a online race, that one will really ruin your day! Keep up the good work bruz awsome video!

[@markpacker6951]

Lol I watch this vid a second time....your looking in the mirror in a time trial...for the first few weeks after I got mine I'd try to put the seat belt on at the start of a race😅

[@Doughtinator]

Yeah it really changes how you think. I fully believe I’m in the car 😳🤣

[@wombleleaderracing6455]

Nice video...really enjoyed it. Iv had PSVR2 since launch and compared myself in VR v "hood" camera over loads of car/track combos and I'm 100% confident in saying I'm just as fast in VR as flatscreen...interestingly iv had a similar experience to you where going from VR to flat feels really weird for a couple laps, car seems much heavier and understeery initially. Wish PD would promote VR a bit more and update the hud...id also love to see the world tour boys have to compete in VR at the live events...the ultimate test of who is best!

[@Doughtinator]

Thanks womble. You’re right. Heavy and understeer is how the car feels when you first switch back to flat! I think it’s just because you lose the perception of speed so just go into each corner a bit too hot. 👍🏻

[@ryanslats6764]

Do you think it makes sense for those that haven't bought ps5 to wait for ps5 pro? Is there going to be improvements to psvr2 on ps5 pro?

[@ririzarry27]

I got a PS VR2 a couple weeks ago and I'm absolutely in love. The immersion has helped my lap times dramatically. What i would really like to know is how VR compares to a proper 3 screen setup 🤔 P.S. Yes i know ps5 doesnt support a triple display... More curious for sim racing in general

[@markpacker6951]

I wanted to set up 3 screens, apparently not posseble with out breaking ps5 warranty. For 3 screen set up you need to convert to I-racing or a PC based sim racer

[@Doughtinator]

I think the big benefit of VR is the depth perception. You would not get that with a triple screen setup in iRacing for example.

[@markpacker6951]

@@Doughtinator %100 agree.

[@iwantalot]

Psvr2 best way to play

[@VivariumSnake]

cool 😎

[@danburdekin]

i’m upto a 1:34.05 on my vr, upgraded my wheel other day so still getting used to it, but it’s a proper amazing TT, best one they have done imo. im struggling with the breaking reference when you come round the right where you lift off and look for the reference to turn left, seem to be too far over to the right to gauge where it is 😂 overall it’s the best gaming experience EASILY on a driving sim. STRONGLY recommend it to anyone if you can afford it 💯💯💪

[@Doughtinator]

Yeah it’s really superb isn’t it. Which corner are you struggling with?

[@danburdekin]

@@Doughtinator the 3rd corner running parallel to the finishing straight where you take a sharp left, it’s really crippling me 😂i’m losing about 1.5 seconds i reckon, i find the hairpins manageable but that corner frys my head 😂

[@Doughtinator]

@danburdekin yeah that’s a hard one. When I was in VR is was slowing down too much for this corner. Trying to maintain speed and sweep through the corner helps as you are not accelerating from a slower speed and it feels like there is more grip on corner exit 👍🏻

[@danburdekin]

@@Doughtinator thank you :)

[@SSRT_JubyDuby8742]

Very nice coverage, it is and has remained very tempting. My children and wife were going to buy it for me last birthday. Luckily I accidentally overheard a snippet of the plan and told them that it wasn't quite there yet, at least not for that money. They are far too kind, and I am far too cynical. I am quite positive that there will come a time when both of those complaints have dissipated. When it does I shall be waiting for the store to open. 😊 Like deployed 👍 😎🎙🏎✅️

[@MIKEDRIFT]

Bummer you missed out it's all there bud .

[@Doughtinator]

Hey Julian. Yeah it’s impressive but it’s not perfect. And it’s A LOT of money 😳

[@dribrom]

You lack allot of UI in VR that can help you drive faster. But if you remove all UI on the flat screen you should be faster in VR when you're equally familiar with both. Mainly because you can judge speed better in VR and you can look into the corner correctly, like you do IRL.

[@DOC187able]

Vr2 is boss wont go back use a fan to avoid VR sickness

[@Doughtinator]

Great tips 👍🏻👍🏻

[@TxM_CrazyBirch]

Yeah... I am a little stuck because I have a hard time being locked in the car... being able to turn my head I am betting I'd start improving a little again. One day, I'll have a ps5 and psvr2... probably about the time it's obsolete... lol

[@Doughtinator]

Yeah it’s a huge cost. I think it’s brilliant but after I’ve given this back I’ll still find it hard to justify the cost 😳

[@TxM_CrazyBirch]

@Doughtinator haha, you'll find a way

[@Astro_BS-AS]

Great and fair video! In my opinion 2d makes you a aster gamer... But VR makes you a better driver. 2d flat is in a sense "cheat Mode", and it's fine... But VR is on another league. My car is in the game and it's the very same experience.

[@Doughtinator]

This is a very good way to look at it 👍🏻👍🏻

[@YevhenKN]

If you want to be competitive in GT7, you need to use bumper camera, but what kind of simracing is that? You will never get that kind of view in real car. I think they should allow only chasing camera for casual players and cockpit, and that is it. But no, everyone using this "cheat" hood or bumper camera and that is arcade sh...t

[@jRoundHouseNinja]

HahahHhH

[@metaliczic96]

The experience of playing GT 7 with PSVR2 is awesome. But i won't buy it, not even PS5 or GT 7 because those are way too expensive.

[@Doughtinator]

Yeah I hear you man. I’m torn. I have to give this back in a few weeks 😳

[@markpacker6951]

I know it's hard to compare....but would you buy a latest series iPhone or Samsung phone? They are $2000+ in Australia. Vr2 has a Qled screen latest technology. You basically have a mobile phone screen attached to your face. $800 is expensive, and you can't make a phone call on vr2, but for me, it was so worth the money.

[@MIKEDRIFT]

It's worth it 100 %

[@joeofoysterbay7197]

The vast majority of us will never know.

[@markpacker6951]

It is unfortunent that some people can afford the vr2. By the time I'd paid for the ps5, sim steering wheel and gt7, I thought bugger it, I spent $1200 and I still suck at the game still.....so I went and baught the vr2 which bumped the total cost of setting it up to $2000 AUD. Set up a PC for I-racing and you could spend 4 or 5 times that amount.

[@markpacker6951]

[@Doughtinator]

Sadly true. It’s very expensive 🥲

[@Doughtinator]

It is also true that a PC VR setup is going to be FAR more expensive 😳

[@chinacasher2285]

Driving only in VR. In GT7 i have A+ and in iracing i have 5.2k ir rating (also driving in VR).
