Why EA Sports WRC can trigger motion sickness
The head cam is a driver's-eye view. EA's guide says the Motion Blur setting removes the blurring effect during certain movements, and that Camera Shake sets how much the camera shakes during gameplay. The developers say Motion Blur is mirrored in the Accessibility menu, so you can switch it off in either place. The two field of view sliders change how much of the stage you see.
- Motion blur, which a 1.4.0 fix says could switch itself back on after a reboot
- Camera shake during gameplay, which has its own slider
- In VR, settings that EA says have the most significant impact on comfort

Comfort settings in EA Sports WRC
EA Sports WRC ships some comfort settings, but not a full set.
| Setting | Where | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| Motion Blur | Accessibility menu (also mirrored in the graphics settings) | Turn it off. The setting applies in both places |
| Camera Shake | In-game settings | Lower it. EA's guide says the slider sets how much shake the camera has during gameplay |
| Camera FOV (Head Cam) | In-game settings | Adjust it a step at a time and test each change on a short stage |
| Camera FOV (External Cameras) | In-game settings | Adjust it the same way. It covers the Bumper, Bonnet, Chase Close and Chase Far cameras |
| Fixed Horizon (VR) | VR settings | Turn it on so the view of the world stays fixed and level while you drive |
| Crash Vignette (VR) | VR settings | Keep it on or raise it, since the slider sets the vignette during significant crashes. A value of 0 turns it off |
One guide explains these settings for every game: how field of view, motion blur, head bob and camera shake trigger motion sickness.
