No, it has everything to do with Bing maps. I’m well aware that it is not a VR only thing. For some reason, Bing maps was defaulted to off when the VR was first available (for me anyway). I just thought that they degraded the visuals for the VR release to get more acceptable frame rates. I was extremely disappointed. Now that I have Bing maps on, I’m thrilled with the VR experience. This was just a post to maybe help those people who have been saying that the graphics in VR sucks. Maybe that was their issue (I haven’t been on in a few weeks, so I don’t know… maybe no one’s even having that issue anymore). The point is, VR in this game is bad ■■■.
