First game to ever make me motion sick (kindof cool)

[geckofish52]

In the past when I heard people say: "ugg im so sick with that head bob" or "oh man I get so sick when you spin around like that" im like BS! Video games dont make you motion sick!

That was before the Just Cause 2 demo.

I started doing loopie loops in the airplane, and i felt this feeling in my stomach, also I was a little dizzy. Then I jumped out and was flying around in cirles skydiving and realized was siriously woozy staring at myself spin round and round and round.

That is just one more reason on my list why this game ROCKS!

Try disabling the motion blur.

Zombie Driver was the first game that ever gave me motion sickness, but that was more to do with an amazingly bad camera as opposed to awesome visuals.

It's the field of view making you motion sick because it's a console port and they couldn't be bothered to change it for the PC.

tbh it is a good port though.
This engine runs 10x better than gta Iv or even some games like divine divinity 2.
I wished most games that comes out nowadays runs as good as this imo.
I'm really impressed with this engine.

I could almost guarantee the motion sickness is due to the motion blur. The blur in this game feels more than 4 times blurrier than other games. Was the very first game to make me feel a little disorientated (and i've played over 300 games easily), but I fixed the motion blur before it got even near bad because I just hate motion blur in general.

Also note that you CAN change the FOV to anything you like using launch options...

Why do people like you constantly think that when a game is released for all platforms, it's an automatic port? Good lord, do some research...

If it was a direct port, then why does the PC version have MANY things that consoles do not?

The PC version can obviously do much more than the consoles are able too. If it was a port, then JC2 for the PC would have NONE of these other enhancements. It would look almost exactly like the consoles.

Back on topic, I don't think I've gotten sick. Though with what you are able to do in the game, it's no surprise if people can, lol. I've gotten so used to the controls that I'm able to do some things that most people might get sick from watching me, lol...

yea happened to me to once, but the first game I had this feeling was gta 4 I think or saints row2 cant remember :P

I get motion sick too playing this game it's the driving camera behind the car it doesn't sway when the car hits the contoures of the terain it just jerks up or down or side to side I hate that, I don't approve of a lot of things about this game for example when vehicles disapear from the view distance they are gone and only responed vehicles are there. I think GTAIV has much greater memory for where cars are if you leave one or when they are driving around it makes Just Cause 2 seem like cheap crap.

and yet you insist on comparing to GTAIV, ohh well, fail troll is fail. I love GTAIV but this game is so well done and optimized that gtaiv looks like a cheap port (in fact it is).

Anyway, the first game that makes me sick was HL2 on default fov, what a awful experience, thank god I did some research and changed the fov, then it was zombie driver too.

This game doesn't give me nor a little headache, is perfectly done.
