Motion Sickness And Video Games

Turn off head-bob.

/thread

Haven't had any troubles.

A game has never given me motion sickness. Yay, me!

Portal made me faint, Hotline miami makes me sick and also other games with motion blur, I even think GTA IV made me sick once

For me it's mostly oldies. Old DOS based games with software rendering are prone to do this, two that come to mind and piss me off all the time are Duke Nukem 3D and the first System Shock. They piss me off because both are fantastic, and I get really close to throwing up while playing them (DN3D actually made me throw up so...)

SHOGO: Mobile Armor Division did this too, but it's mostly just the first few minutes. After that, I kind of adapt to it and it's alright. Thief did the same too, but that game's way too awesome to stop playing even with conditions like that :D

Other than that, Alien Anarchy. It's a Brazilian developed shooter which must be the absolute shittest 3 dimensional program that was ever fucking created. To add injury to the insult of actually existing despite being a depressing excuse of a shooter, it is the one game that made me throw up 3 times so far, which is 3 out of 3 playing sessions I had with it. Fuck that game.

I'm not sure what you're talking about.

When i first played Thandor, i played it the whole day without eating or drinking. Suddenly, everything that moved became kinda invisible to me and was replaced by those lights you see when you close your eyes. I was shocked and went away from the computer, but i was unable to see anything for a few minutes. The next 2 days i was feverish

portal(1&2) in 3d i could play without 3d enabled fine tho

FOV is common in some games, thankfully some of them let you change it in the configuration, as in Half-Life 2 (not in the cfg, it's in the command that you use to launch the game).

Zombie Driver HD - No other game so far.. but this game.. oh lord

None yet.

I'm immune to this, thankfully.

HL2 made me want to hurl after 5 minutes. Its default FOV is horrendous. Increase it considerably and you should be fine.

Games with the wrong FOV.

Same, Im having problem with motion sickness I guess. After playing like an hour of Counter Strike Global offensive(map keep changing and some of the map is too complicated/big), I tend to feel dizzy and I really hate it. Sometime I hit my head to the wall to remove the pain.

I never had such problems.

Change fov in half life, it helped it for me

Hydrophobia prophecy is one, zombie driver is two and overlord 2 is the third. Can't play those games without getting motion sick...

It happened to me once before, well actually not motion sick, but I was playing Modern Warfare 2, and a flashbang went off, within the next two minutes I had the most intense headache that made me sick to my stomach, and I had to lay down for a couple of hours. Have never had a headache that bad before, or none since. I never did play that game again.

Half-Life 2 does this to me, and I freaking hate it due to how good I keep hearing it is. I can play all FPS games just fine, but this one really makes me feel sick. Will have to try some tweaks.

The only games that give me motion sickness are System Shock 1, Rise Of The Triad and Duke Nukem 3D.

HL2 and some other Source gaems makes me feel sick sometimes.
Thx for thing about FOV, i'll try it.

I had it when playing COD:MW and Tony Hawk's American Wasteland. I finished Tony Hawk though...

Too bad you can't play such great games like HL2 and Corruption.
