F1 24 + Varjo Aero does it work properly?

[ImMrChris]

anyone tried this with the Aero? F1 23 has a bug in the menus that slows the loading and playing wondered if 24 is the same?

Can't speak for your headset in particular but its more or less universally agreed that VR in the F1 games is abysmal. Get Assetto Corsa or Automobilista 2 if you want a retail price game with solid VR. Or if you want the absolute best racing VR experience get yourself an iracing sub.

I know the Varjo Aero is pretty much considered the benchmark by sim racers so feel like you should get your moneys worth out of it by checking out some titles that utilise the tech properly.

I've played all those titles to death over the years i just like the F1 career idea as it sounded fun but F1 23 doesn't work properly on the Aero

I downloaded the trial and guess what!

NO it still doesn't work correctly on the Aero it works ok on the Quest 3 but then it looks pants!

Is the game even any good? Was playing F1 23 this weekend as I looked at the price of 24 and didn't feel like jumping in without any research.

It's awful. I had it refunded. Played all the F1 games for years but this one is just way too arcadey. The new handling model is awful. Drifting is the fastest way round track now and the front end just points whereever you want it to go, it's comical. If you watch all the world record laps for F1 24 from the pros, it's hilarious how they have to drive to be quick.

I know it's never been a true sim, but it at least was somewhere in the middle of an arcade game and a sim, now it's just basically like NFS or something but with F1 cars

I concur with the above statements it felt terrible to drive on my sim rig

Oh wow, terrible to hear. Hopefully they'll sort it but I don't hold my breath I guess. If they've gone this direction I suspect it is by choice. Knew it'd go this way once EA got their grubby hands on it.
