    Bucking the trend here, but the latest update seems to be a good one for me, no tracking issues, no lag and no crashes. 

    Fingers crossed it continues

    Yeah, I've just played a couple of hours Fallout 4 VR and I'm chucking grenades like a winner :) No lag at all in the controllers.

    Ever since 1.39 with the improved tracking my headset gets black screens every 5 minutes & i have to end task on Oculus. Very tired of this since when I rolled back to 1.38 this problem disappeared. To this day even on 1.41 my rift s screen constantly blacks out, very tired of this problem. Updating gtx 1060 drivers doesn't work (nor does trying other versions of the driver)

    Yeah same here in Fallout 4 VR, having no real issues that I can tell so far in any games.
    1.41 seems pretty solid for me so far.

    Ugh still having mic dropouts in Rift S, getting annoying.

    Yeah I've looked closely at my trigger fingers and it's like the software is smoothing my finger motion, and giving it a speed limit. So if I flick my fingers quickly, they never reach full trigger pull. Robo Recall suffers the most for this. Also in Robo Recall, I can't throw things nearly as well using the palm triggers, can't recall robots through a the lift thingy, throw guns, or throw bullets with nearly the same agressive rate as I could before. Heck I can't even grab and tear off heads the same as before. I just quickly opted out of the beta and went back to 1.40, will update after a quick Robo session.

    Yup, worked like a dream, faster trigger, solid throws. This update was a serious step back. Just in case it means something, my rig also experienced the white flash's that was recently solved. Might be worth checking if certain headsets experience certain combinations of issues while others do not.
