@@Super_GT I agree. It means in the moment you're going full attack and maximum focus but then you can narrate for the viewers of what was going through your head.
I'm gramps on gt7 and I cannot narrate while driving. It takes complete focus. I spinout of control if i try farting while braking late and gassing early from a chicane. Jajajajajaja
The no HUD thing for immersion is cool, but what they really need is an AI pit team on the radio. Telling you timing gaps, crashes, penalties, good and bad sectors, and doing fuel and tire math for you. THAT would be killer. Realistically it wouldn't really need AI, but it would be cool to give the people on radio some personality
They need to copy what PJC had and just let you know placement, whether you need to pit and what flags are out. Also give you heads up on weather and suggestions.
Yea, tge static cam is a hindrance when it comes to checking opponent positions when cornering. I play on a wheel and without an analog stick on said wheel, I’m forced to rely on the radar and proxy indicators. I can’t wait until I get a ps5 and a headset
If you drive irl, then you can't help it. I prefer it over huds or indicators cuz mirrors feel more instinctive. All I need is a glance without really turning my head like crazy.
Thats for sure. I haven’t raced since the game came out so im terrible again. I found in vr i couldnt stop looking around inside the car which did not help. It was so real its insane.
As someone who has been doing VR in iRacing since November: The change will take some races, you will be slower those races. But once you start to adapt and see it as if you are in an actual car, you will actually not only become MUCH faster, but will also have way better racecraft, which is the main game from switching to VR.
Sounds like switching from a controller to a wheel. I know in certain games I am still faster with a controller, but even if I can bang out a faster qualifying with a controller. I feel much more confident when I'm using a wheel for wheel-to-wheel racing.
Exactly, when I first started it was pretty annoying to turn my head around to see cars at high speeds. Now it all feels natural and I also learned how to listen to the game better, not using map or anything I can tell where the cars are at next to me.
I have ~35-40h in GT7, and now started with PS VR 2. I already know i will get much, much better when in VR. Overtaking AI's is so much fun when you see actual cars
@@michaelrichter2528Annoying as it may, the one who needs see things clearly didn't have that messing up their performance. This is how you want concessions to happen. Forget the viewer, the one using the headset needs to see the best visuals and performance as possible.
I actually hate you I hadn't noticed it all until you pointed it out and now it's going to bug me anytime I watch psvr2 stuff. I curse you and your enthusiasm for cool tech
@@vvoof2601 There's absolutely no such thing as "Simcade". I don't even know who came up with that buzz word 🤣. It's either a Simulator or not! In this game people play chase cam with controller and still make P1 online. You can't even dare try it on a PC Sim. That already gave away the steering axis being designed for controller.
@@kak8895 I've seen some guys setting really good lap times and winning races on ACC with controller, and that game is a full hardcore sim, it just takes practice!
Please continue making this kind of content, I know you're gonna be busy actually racing when the season starts but I love the VR and mix between the live commentary and voice overs. Good luck in Bahrain, Alex!
The racing and the viewing experience is so much better. I do miss the running order and gap times in the upper left. But the immersion is so much better.
It's actually so enjoyable to hear you have so much fun with your live commentaries in addition to your usual voice over commentaries! :D We can really see that you're having a lot of fun in VR
Amazing to see the timing data and/or mirror pixelates to save processing power but the eye tracking knows when you are looking at it and renderes it normally again. Clever stuff
Obviously I am no where near as fast as you, Steve. But having used VR lot more than you, mainly on AC and ACC, I can tell you are not used to the cockpit view. You need to turn your head more, and use the right wing mirror to check cars at the back. There is a massive blind spot at the moment because you are relying the centre mirror only. And like you said, racing is way more realistic on VR and you will be quicker once tuned in. I was 10 seconds quick in Nordschleife 3rd lap into VR from flat screen. VR and flat screen is 2 different league. You will be way quicker. Well done and keep pushing.
It's pretty cool to see how the game handles rendering in VR, I was a bit curious after the last video and on this one I paid attention how the headset tracks where you look and how the game renders after receiving that data. It's really visible on the rearview mirror, it's all blurry and not anti-aliased when you're looking straight and on an instant when taking a quick gander at it, its all smooth and crispy. I'm not a VR user myself nor watch VR gameplay usually, so its pretty cool piece of tech to figure out how that all works.
When you're really tuned into how you play a game, any significant change will make you initially slower. If you became a wizard at racing on a DualSense and got a wheel without much experience racing with one, I think you'd initially be slower, too. It's about the potential the new input/ouput method gives you. I found I started going quicker in VR once I really got comfortable with it, mainly down to being able to feel better what the car was doing. I'd love to see more VR content to see if you can find all your speed in this mode, and maybe even find something else, too. It would also be awesome to do a big online no HUD race challenge, so even tyre wear is something you have to gauge entirely by feel. It would be a really cool challenge to watch!
This is probably the game that’s gonna make me buy a VR headset imagine what it’d be like to drive threw the Nurburgring or even Tokyo expressway at night with this on. Amazing video SuperGT keep it up💯
Now I’ll have to buy a PS5 and a VR rig thanks to Steve! Rip wallet! This VR addition has me wanting to buy a simrig; it’s looks so fascinating! Wish I hadn’t sold my PS5 💀
Seeing the foveated rendering working in an instant is awesome. I've only got an index currently but I can't wait to upgrade to something with this capability
Steve, now you're a documentarist! And this is top level editing. The alternance between your narration and your commentary during play is great. As always, I'm happy to see another video from yourself. Keep on the good job
I normally drive in cockpit view so I found the PSVR made it much easier to know where the cars were, now that I could look at the mirrors. Great driving as always Sir
First time VR user here, and new to the Fanatec DD family. The Sim rig and VR2 combo are absolutely perfect. Some blurred portions happen and different times but it's usually not have the unit in the sweet spot. Try the super formula cars, unbelievable.
LOVE the vr content! The interior sounds are so good, and the constant lingering fear of the guy behind is what makes the experience in my opinion. After doing iRacing for a couple years in VR, i still yearn for that adrenaline :) Keep up the awesome content
Considering theres a little chance for Gran Turismo to add a crew/engineer that helps inform the driver, I guess that HUD is a good compromise. But it can also be cool if Gran turismo would give an option to hide it or assign a hotkey to enable or disable the HUD.
it looks faster now with VR and I definitely like it a lot. Only thing I would change is your camera placement. I would use top left corner now as there is no list of players in this view. It's current positioning is hiding left rear mirror. Anyway nice content and I hope you will get used to it soon so its not hurting your lap times and competetivity.
@@sivymrak9310 ohh I didn’t even pay attention to that lol I always look at what they’re seeing so I thought you meant the hud which is super distracting.
@@dbzcollector9963 yea in-game placement of HUD is pretty bad I would say. There is plenty of space at the top of the screen and there is only a black roof. Definitely a place where I would put it but hey, I am not a developer or game tester :)
I just got my PSVR2 yesterday, and playing in VR, I realized that I was a lot more cautious because VR was forcing my self preservation instincts to kick in. Immersion is great with GT7. I was an original PSVR1 owner as well. The potential shown in GTSport VR is finally fulfilled.
@Jean-Guy Malenfant don't expect it to look as good as a TV. It's pretty blurry compared to a 4K TV, with a grainy look due to the mura effect from the pixels not all shining at the exact same intensity, because it's an OLED screen your zoomed in on. And you only see 2K maximum. So, as one should expect, visual quality is not as good as a TV. Don't expect it to look nearly as sharp. The graphics quality is great though. It's pretty much the same graphical fidelity as on flat screen. But just shown on a lower resolution screen. Very immersive. The grainy look and lower resolution is definitely worth it for being in the car. It's a completely different experience.
I like this video format for your videos. The face cam & Live reactions + your Post Race Commentary feels so natural. I'm not sure if you mind but could you try this with your usual multiplayer shenanigans? No need for the VR of course.
@super Gt thanks for the answers about "Is VR slower". I daresay, it *seemed* like your pulse was pounding much harder in the key moments of these VR races than compared to your usual flat game experience. And that *thrill* surely is worth something. But at the end of the day, because VR is slower AND VR is more exhausting, does it mean you will ultimately feel compelled to go back to flat gaming to be competitive and run more races per day? Do you think the rank table display really makes that much of a difference for driving strategy? or do you think its because you are stuck to incar view and you cant see cars that are creeping up on your side? What if anything do you think would need to change in GT to make VR be competitive with flat (albeit with more exhaustion from the experience in trade)? Could you consider doing a VR race and then taking off the headset and doing the same race in flat and then summarize your impressions from a "competitive racing" position? Finally, Do you think VR will make you a better real world racer? Thanks
He's not necessarily slower, he just has to get acclimated with it, to become comfortable as he was without it, once that happens hell be right back to where he was. My issue so far with the VR is how it tends to not give full range motion your head can move while in cockpit view. Things seem to get weird when they try to look or throw an eye to the opposite mirror things get very weird.
Now that PSVR 2 is here, I can finally watch your content and enjoy it while playing again! I am absolutely in love with PSVR 2. I get free iracing through my job which is great, but having GT7 in VR is just sensational. Glad to be back enjoying your wonderful videos.
It's funny how for Steve the depth of the corner was a thing he struggled with in VR compared to flatscreen. I started simracing around 2 years ago, 4 months ago I bought myself a quest 2. And better judgement of distance and speed is the best thing that happened to me due to switching to VR. I can finally judge the speed, distance and angle accurately, making it possible for me to be faster and actually drive safer. On flatscreen it's very difficult for me to stay fully aware and judge my speed going into corners. I was finally able to go around stages in Dirt Rally 2.0 reliably after switching to vr. So yeah, not discrediting anyone's experience or anything, it's just interesting to me how it seems it's drastically different from one person to another.
It might be hard at the beginning but later you'll love it more and more. I play Assetto Corsa with VR only and now I can tell where the cars are next to me etc. I also never use map or anything, just pure VR view inside car without any gadgets. I also listen to the surroundings so you'll later learn how to tell where they are by the sound.
Obviously I don't know how difficult it would be, but it would be nice if they could add something like they have in the EA/Codemaster games like Grid or F1 where you can get updates over your radio from your engineer in the pits. Obviously its tougher as the left/right direction buttons are assigned to the onscreen menu, but am sure Polyphony could come up with something. Hell, if not interative, just the odd radio message that comes out through the controller speaker would be fine.
Mr. Super GT sir, You look much smoother, like you're not overdriving the car so much. I suspect with more time-in-helmet you will become faster than on the screen.
Absoutely excellent real review! yes there are differances like the times on the left but like you said @Super GT that is more realistic and you have to drive more on instinct rather than data on the screen, like the real world. For me I found the depth in VR easier to judge corners, with my second lap on race B I shaved a second off my best time. I love it. Keep up the great content! Thanks.
I think this is the future of sim racing. Of course GT7 isn't the first VR sim, but it is the first that offers such a high quality experience priced for the mass market -- and the gameplay footage is SO much more engaging.
With VR on the rise, GT need to invest in audio feedback. For example pit crew voices to provide feedback on if cars are left, right, delta of those around you and when cars come within 1second of you, and when car x&y in the pits. You should be able to adjust how chatty you want them too. Else it seems quite unstable with the lack of feedback and for you to go no HUD.
Lots of fun to watch. It's a little bouncy compared to screen views because of your head movement. I suggest moving the insets of your body and feet to the upper left or right so our view of the side mirror is not blocked.
@@thekornrole As someone who has been doing VR for a while now in iRacing and does track days: yes, it absolutely does. It's essentially practice, it makes sim racing so similar to the real thing that it eventually serves as practice.
@@thekornroleeven without VR I have avoided crashes IRL that previous to simracing I would have rammed right through. It’s at the point now where sim racing is like getting into a fresh car. It’s the same but it’s not, all the core elements remain you just have to do them differently, sim racing also gives you thousands of different cars to drive, training your brain to know what things will be different and how to combat the issue even without having driven the car yet. Then there’s the IRL to sim similarities in setups, softer suspension will yield moderately better grip, but the grip goes byebye the moment everything bottoms out, it’s the same in my 31 year old 4wd as it is in a simulated F1 car as it is in pcars2 when the glitches stay away. Some companies have even integrated simulator rig gear into a real car for testing. Even if that never directly makes It to market, the trickle down into current tech fly by wire steering will turn it from a return to centre with maybe some feedback but mostly signal drop aways to actually safe. And improve how the FFB generates within their own hardware for simulation use.
I could see how it would benefit someone who never ever drove a car and someone who wants to learn a track layout but feeling the gforce as the bumps and your tire grip is a whole nother thing. But I guess there could be a learning effect.
I think the only downside to VR for GT7 is that you dont really have full view angle like you do irl. If we did have curved screens that can mimic our view angle, then using our head to turn away while having our eyes look the otherway and it would allow us to use the mirrors
Really makes me want to invest in this set up. Already have a PS5. Would just need the VR and wheel. Would be sweet if they have a VR motorcycle sim. I'll be all on board instantly.
if l may offer that the DualSense is very capable as standalone in MotionControl mode- its almost like having a small wheel in hand- its very good l must say 23feb2023.dellthecomputer
That was really fun. The full emersion of VR makes you really feel like you're inside the car. Also the Italian guy that kept dive bombing you, sheesh 🙄
Completely different experience both as a driver and even a spectator. You can *feel* the cars behind you even just watching the VR replay. Really relays your angst and anxiety watching the Beetle or GTR slowly creep up with the constant panning over to the rear view mirror.
in iRacing I have the virtual mirror just above my eye line. VR reduces the benefit of peripheral vision so the simulator really needs to provide some feature to compensate. Situational awareness in a car is required. The radar off to the side and even the mirror is just not somewhere you can readily see while you're looking where you're driving.
Remember, you have trained your eyes/brain to gauge distance on a flat screen. So it will take a while to get the brain to feel like it is inside a real car.
It's great so see how well the foveated rendering seems to work VR tech is really evolving now I hope the consoles can push the tech a little. I always think that on PCs, which already feels like a niche now, really only some hard core people have VR for sims.
Yeah I agree on the no HUD if they had some kind of radio announcer or something in your ear that would tell you when you gain a spot or what position you was in or something. kind of like a spotter but not
That's cool the VR will focus where ever you look at. I want VR2, but just want to go to a store and bring it home. It sucks the only way to buy it is through Sony Direct and wait for it to be shipped. I want to buy it, bring it home, and play.

What if anything do you think would need to change in GT to make VR be competitive with flat (albeit with more exhaustion from the experience in trade)? Could you consider doing a VR race and then taking off the headset and doing the same race in flat and then summarize your impressions from a "competitive racing" position? Finally, Do you think VR will make you a better real world racer? Thanks
He's not necessarily slower, he just has to get acclimated with it, to become comfortable as he was without it, once that happens hell be right back to where he was. My issue so far with the VR is how it tends to not give full range motion your head can move while in cockpit view. Things seem to get weird when they try to look or throw an eye to the opposite mirror things get very weird.
Now that PSVR 2 is here, I can finally watch your content and enjoy it while playing again! I am absolutely in love with PSVR 2. I get free iracing through my job which is great, but having GT7 in VR is just sensational. Glad to be back enjoying your wonderful videos.
It's funny how for Steve the depth of the corner was a thing he struggled with in VR compared to flatscreen.
I started simracing around 2 years ago, 4 months ago I bought myself a quest 2. And better judgement of distance and speed is the best thing that happened to me due to switching to VR. I can finally judge the speed, distance and angle accurately, making it possible for me to be faster and actually drive safer. On flatscreen it's very difficult for me to stay fully aware and judge my speed going into corners. I was finally able to go around stages in Dirt Rally 2.0 reliably after switching to vr.
So yeah, not discrediting anyone's experience or anything, it's just interesting to me how it seems it's drastically different from one person to another.
It might be hard at the beginning but later you'll love it more and more. I play Assetto Corsa with VR only and now I can tell where the cars are next to me etc. I also never use map or anything, just pure VR view inside car without any gadgets. I also listen to the surroundings so you'll later learn how to tell where they are by the sound.
More vr racing please! Absolutely love it.
Amazing stuff! 52 years old here! Fan since the first one! I miss gtsport....but I must resist.....or not! Ahahahah
Obviously I don't know how difficult it would be, but it would be nice if they could add something like they have in the EA/Codemaster games like Grid or F1 where you can get updates over your radio from your engineer in the pits. Obviously its tougher as the left/right direction buttons are assigned to the onscreen menu, but am sure Polyphony could come up with something. Hell, if not interative, just the odd radio message that comes out through the controller speaker would be fine.
I'm so happy that you are able to race in full online lobbies in VR now! GT Sport on PSVR 1 was only limited to 1v1 vs Ai!
You should do t shirt merch, the first one starting off as “ the shadow realm “
The way you’re narrating this while you talking in the background feels like National Geographic special featuring SuperGT
Mr. Super GT sir, You look much smoother, like you're not overdriving the car so much.
I suspect with more time-in-helmet you will become faster than on the screen.
Also Steve's hand raise as if he was in an actual car gesturing someone cutting him up IRL lol
Well done, cockpit view is how we should all be racing anyways, vr or not! It can be extremely satisfying once you get good at it.
Gran Turismo Sport and 7's respective VR systems are absolutely top notch.
Sport is garbage lol
Absoutely excellent real review! yes there are differances like the times on the left but like you said @Super GT that is more realistic and you have to drive more on instinct rather than data on the screen, like the real world. For me I found the depth in VR easier to judge corners, with my second lap on race B I shaved a second off my best time.
I love it. Keep up the great content! Thanks.
I think this is the future of sim racing. Of course GT7 isn't the first VR sim, but it is the first that offers such a high quality experience priced for the mass market -- and the gameplay footage is SO much more engaging.
Love the cockpit view, and the commentary style is great!
Go full VR, man. I can feel the action more as a viewer. Really fun to watch!
For now this channel be My favorite channel,, SUPER GT IS ABSOLUTY AWASOME in review,,
sc: trust me bro
With VR on the rise, GT need to invest in audio feedback.
For example pit crew voices to provide feedback on if cars are left, right, delta of those around you and when cars come within 1second of you, and when car x&y in the pits.
You should be able to adjust how chatty you want them too.
Else it seems quite unstable with the lack of feedback and for you to go no HUD.
What an awesome view you definitely should try with no HUD. The commentary from both live and after is really entertaining.
Lots of fun to watch. It's a little bouncy compared to screen views because of your head movement. I suggest moving the insets of your body and feet to the upper left or right so our view of the side mirror is not blocked.
What is great about VR is that it actually makes you a better driver in real life.
No it doesn't 😀?? Explain how
@@thekornrole As someone who has been doing VR for a while now in iRacing and does track days: yes, it absolutely does.
It's essentially practice, it makes sim racing so similar to the real thing that it eventually serves as practice.
@@thekornroleeven without VR I have avoided crashes IRL that previous to simracing I would have rammed right through. It’s at the point now where sim racing is like getting into a fresh car. It’s the same but it’s not, all the core elements remain you just have to do them differently, sim racing also gives you thousands of different cars to drive, training your brain to know what things will be different and how to combat the issue even without having driven the car yet.
Then there’s the IRL to sim similarities in setups, softer suspension will yield moderately better grip, but the grip goes byebye the moment everything bottoms out, it’s the same in my 31 year old 4wd as it is in a simulated F1 car as it is in pcars2 when the glitches stay away.
Some companies have even integrated simulator rig gear into a real car for testing. Even if that never directly makes It to market, the trickle down into current tech fly by wire steering will turn it from a return to centre with maybe some feedback but mostly signal drop aways to actually safe. And improve how the FFB generates within their own hardware for simulation use.
I could see how it would benefit someone who never ever drove a car and someone who wants to learn a track layout but feeling the gforce as the bumps and your tire grip is a whole nother thing. But I guess there could be a learning effect.
I think the only downside to VR for GT7 is that you dont really have full view angle like you do irl. If we did have curved screens that can mimic our view angle, then using our head to turn away while having our eyes look the otherway and it would allow us to use the mirrors
Really makes me want to invest in this set up. Already have a PS5. Would just need the VR and wheel. Would be sweet if they have a VR motorcycle sim. I'll be all on board instantly.
if l may offer that the DualSense is very capable as standalone in MotionControl mode- its almost like having a small wheel in hand- its very good l must say

This gamemode renders the game in a way that gives me quite the "GT5 splitscreen graphics on my friends 17" TV" vibes and i'm loving it.
That was really fun. The full emersion of VR makes you really feel like you're inside the car. Also the Italian guy that kept dive bombing you, sheesh 🙄
That maneuver against the Porsche was a thing of beauty...
8:21 Nice move 🔥yeah I definitely need to get the VR experience
Really enjoying the voice over while you play and occasionally talk, some good races man!
This is intense, totally different experience!
Completely different experience both as a driver and even a spectator. You can *feel* the cars behind you even just watching the VR replay. Really relays your angst and anxiety watching the Beetle or GTR slowly creep up with the constant panning over to the rear view mirror.
I love how Steve is commentating while driving and talking at the same time but it seems like two different people XD
in iRacing I have the virtual mirror just above my eye line. VR reduces the benefit of peripheral vision so the simulator really needs to provide some feature to compensate. Situational awareness in a car is required. The radar off to the side and even the mirror is just not somewhere you can readily see while you're looking where you're driving.
This might be the most excited i've heard Steve since he got the exhaust swap on his M2.
so much more exciting to watch
Remember, you have trained your eyes/brain to gauge distance on a flat screen. So it will take a while to get the brain to feel like it is inside a real car.
It's great so see how well the foveated rendering seems to work
VR tech is really evolving now
I hope the consoles can push the tech a little. I always think that on PCs, which already feels like a niche now, really only some hard core people have VR for sims.
The gear shifting in that Nismo GTR sounded like some sheet-metal stamping machinery, what the hell. Lol
Got my psVR today. Wow. It is incredible. Totally worth the price. I only hope they continue to support the product.
Man, this looks absolutely amazing for VR. Definitely need to save up to get.
love the mix of real time and added commentary
I can get behind this new video format, assuming you choose to stick to VR.
Yeah I agree on the no HUD if they had some kind of radio announcer or something in your ear that would tell you when you gain a spot or what position you was in or something. kind of like a spotter but not
Being slower could also be due to cockpit view vs your regular view? Looks sick though!
Looks like VR really amps up the intensity.
Wearing VR with headphone on would be hell of an experience!
That's cool the VR will focus where ever you look at. I want VR2, but just want to go to a store and bring it home. It sucks the only way to buy it is through Sony Direct and wait for it to be shipped.
I want to buy it, bring it home, and play.
I may not be the first to say it, but I like your new room. It's brighter and much more spacious than your old "bedroom."
