camera?

Post by torrance »

i just wondered if anyone else is having camera problems, i suffer really badly with motion sickness from gameplay- to the point where fp games are impossible to play- and so far downpour is doing the same. after about an hour i have to switch off for a while till the nausea passes- it's really spoiling it for me! :evil: there doesn't seem to be an option to slow down the camera (am on xbox360), any suggestions?

Strange, I have similar problems with games, but I was fine playing Downpour. Have you tried (if you can) altering the angle of the TV, or where you sit? Sometimes I find those being wrong can make the motion sickness worse.

yep,afraid i've tried everything. the usual fixes don't seem to work, i don't know whether it's because am controlling the camera myself or not, it just seems really 'swingy' if you know what i mean? oh well, maybe just have to do it an hour at a time lol! ;-)

Sorry man, you can't adjust the camera, or fov at all.. I had this same problem while playing Metro 2033 on the 360. i could go about 30 minutes before i started to get sick and had to cut the game off. Then i got it for the PC, adjusted the fov and i was able to play the game with no problems.

at least the game is getting a patch to fix the framerate and save issues. maybe when the game drops in price i'll buy it again so i can finish it.
