    Racerooms is taking an age to start, I play in VR, the small loading box starts immediately but Steam vr takes possibly 30 seconds or more to start, is any body else getting this?

    Yes, it seems a little slow today. I would not call 30 sec "an age" though.

    For me, 30 seconds seem pretty fast...

    I guess it just seems a long time Sat in the dark with a vr headset on:)
    Vr used to kick in very quickly but not at the moment:(

    Sometimes the servers that run the backed are slow. It's annoying.

    It seems to me that the slower startup times started occuring more often since the Driver Pack associated updates - but this is highly subjective.

    I can confirm a slower start up to the initial menu screen since a few days. I have not measured the exact time but it definitely takes longer.
