Gray Zone Warfare Motion Sickness: Why It Happens & What Helps

Gray Zone Warfare is a first-person tactical shooter in Steam Early Access. It has a Vertical FOV setting, which MADFINGER's own performance tips set to 55. MADFINGER removed motion blur in its Night Ops update and has reduced head bobbing while sprinting. The sources opened do not list a head bob or camera shake toggle.

Why Gray Zone Warfare can trigger motion sickness

The game is played in first person, with weapon sway, head bobbing and animation shake that the developers keep adjusting between patches. Their notes show motion blur gone, head bobbing reduced, camera shake reduced in some animations and weapon sway reworked, but no toggle for any of them. The Vertical FOV setting is the one comfort control the sources show. The game is in early access, so the menu may change.

  • Head bobbing while sprinting, which the developers have reduced but not made optional
  • Weapon sway, which the developers reworked and tied to weapon weight
  • Camera shake in some animations, which the developers have reduced in places

What helps beyond the settings

  • Raise the Vertical FOV a few degrees at a time and test each change in a short deployment
  • Keep sprints short, since the developers' notes name sprinting as the case with excessive head bobbing
  • Look at something still and far away until it passes, and try slow breathing

Frequently asked questions

Does Gray Zone Warfare have a field of view slider?

Yes. MADFINGER's support article lists a Vertical FOV option among the in-game settings and suggests 55 for performance. The sources opened do not give the range or name the menu tab that holds it.

Does Gray Zone Warfare have motion blur?

MADFINGER's Night Ops update notes list motion blur as removed. A suppression blur effect still exists, per a later fix note. The sources opened do not list a head bob or camera shake toggle.

Can I turn off head bob in Gray Zone Warfare?

The sources opened show no toggle. The developers' notes say they reduced excessive head bobbing while sprinting with the knife in Patch 0.2.2.0 and fixed unintended head bobbing when sprinting in the Winds of War update. Check the in-game options in case a newer build adds one.
