>>414258809
thanks, but I am recording in mp4 like a pleb

>>414259147
what are you talking about anon, mpv is a video player, not a video format

>>414239286 (OP)
so what's a good racing game in vr that isnt aiming for realism

>>414259441

Learn to use ffmpeg and you can easily convert, resize, crop, trim etc almost any image/video file.

I literally just play blade and sorcery modded all day can't wait for the 12 update :(

virtual reality is uhh cool I guess... yeah

>>414257734
We're actually progressing closer to the promise land, its just happening a bit slower than we hoped for
I can still think back to 2016 when i got in compared to now. Back then the headset was barely able to run at a normal framerate, all the games had to be simplified garbage to fit on low res dual screens. We could only dream of VR being able to drive full fidelity desktop games at 4k+.
Today we've practically passed that milestone with the 4090. Whatever game you can run on your desktop, can run on your headset at playable fps, (save a few overblown resource hogs at max graphics).

The only thing standing between us having our whole steam library as an interactive VR experience is some good conversion mods.

>>414298964
yea and its work that requires financing, meanwhile vr is far from being the hottest shit it was in 2016

>>414299453
patreon grifters are making good gains when they're not getting sued. Eventually a general pipeline for VR conversion will be established among the modders and they'll start churning them out weekly, with extra time freed up to work out the kinks and implementing extra tactile features.
Its never going to be as good as made for VR but it will be a huge expansion of good meaty content to play through, cheap as well cause most of them will be back catalog releases.

why dont people like vr. i dont even touch flat games anymore

>>414308041
No games. That's it.

>>414308198
wdym there are tons of games even mmos if you should run out of them

>>414308837
Reality is not going to change no matter how hard you try to deny it.
There are no games.
I've check every single vr game released on steam in the last 4 years.

>>414308041
I like VR and even i have trouble with it. Its just such a hassle going through 5 extra steps to play vidya.
Although my problem is the playspace isnt in my room so i constantly have to bring all the crap out the door any time i wanna play roomscale, then haul it back after. And i dont wanna use standalones because they're subpar.

Jesus fuck, are VR controllers going to get bigger and bigger?

>>414258526
use webm for retards

>>414256565
Yeah, because it's pretty much the alternative discord chat for the VRchat trannies.

>>414317684
Until they have cameras in them like Quest Pro.

>>414316428
I've just got a room dedicated to it. Making it as much of a low friction experience as possible is key.

>>414308041
It feels like the core gaming audience's perception of VR hasn't changed since the Oculus CV1 and Vive.

>>414309483
So you looked at 4000+ VR games and ignored all of them?

>>414325683
Only ignored the complete trash, think "unity asset flip".
But overall, pretty much. You can count vr games worth playing on one hand.

>>414326727
Don't really need that many games as long as there are a handful I can keep coming back to.

>>414326974
Like what?

>>414327174
Arcade stuff like Thrill of the Fight, Beat Saber, Pistol Whip, and multiplayer games, Contractors, VTOL, and so on.
Also I really like adventure games and there seems to be a steady trickle of them.

>>414327174
Simmers probably have it the best right now. If you're into racing games and have a wheel + pedals, you can play a bunch of great VR indefinitely. Same for flight niggers with a hot ass.
Locomotion is a non issue and controls are tailor made for cockpits.

I wish i was more into the car racing, i have a decent setup for it but so many of the sim titles are sterile as fuck and made for tryharding. Even Dirt Rally 2 gets old despite being the most fun.
Hopefully Grand Autismo somehow escapes the PSVR exclusivity so we can get a decent casual option.

>>414308041
There aren't any skinnerbox timesink games for vr like there are for the number one low entry cost mass market gaming device currently on the market: mobile phones. I am waiting on township tale to get not shit and for something to supersede into the radius as best vr ambient looter shooter personally. When that happens I might be able to justify spending the money on an index to replace my ageing OG vive. The thing that stops me from playing a tonne of vr at the moment is the battery life on my 5 year old controllers and my knees fucking exploding.

>>414334467
I wish there was a good runescape-like VR game

>>414347979

PCVR Finally. I was expecting later this month but these guys drop news and updates suddenly.
https://github.com/TriangleFactory/Breachers/releases

>>414328728
GT7 has been leaked for PC but I doubt it's getting VR there. Maybe when that Playstation launcher leak comes into effect PSVR2 will work with it.

>>414353183
kinda looking forward to this but unfortunately i'm working until the weekend so won't be able to join the lobby in case we decide to host on friday
it looked decent from when i watched it last time, and that was just the quest version

>>414308041
Inherently high activation energy. You can't press a button and be in VR within 5 seconds. 5 seconds of setup time can be enough to dissuade someone from doing something ever again, even if they like it. Some make it even worse by keeping their headset disconnected in a box so they have 10 minutes of setup every time.

VR is the fleshlight of videogames

>>414359321
That's more of a clean up problem.

>>414354132
It doesn't look like there's any option for private lobbies/servers yet and trying to pile into a public server before matchmaking fills it with randoms sounds like a recipe for disaster.

>>414359321
Took me a second, but that's pretty good.

>>414359321
couldn't say it better myself, damn

2023, closing in on 4 years since the index, still no fully featured successor PCVR headset that doesnt compromise on tracking or visuals..

>Quest/Pico/Wireless/Standalones
stuck on lower quality
>PSVR2
cant play on PC, questionable roomscale
>Reverb G2
shit roomscale, narrow fov
>Vive Pro 2
poor vertical fov immersion, dodgy hardware
>Varjo Aero
too expensive, weird lens effects
>Pimax 5-8kx
warped on the sides, poor QC

It kinda blows my mind we have so many headset releases but noone is coming out to cover all the basics on PCVR. Like I know better than to shill for the Pimax Crystal, but thats the only confirmed thing that does everything on paper, assuming Pimax unfucks its quality control.
Gaben bless, the deckard will save us from this bizarre pick-your-defect headset selection.

Can any Questies tell me the width of the side strap on the quest 2, right around where it connects to the face?

>>414365818
Inshallah, HTC will come to save us brother for a price.

>>414365818
>>Reverb G2
>shit roomscale, narrow fov

Forgot bad tracking and bad performance due to the lens design and it being WMR.

>>414367062
What are HTC making that will save VR?

>>414367471
You'll find out in a few weeks, maybe possibly.

>>414367062
I already took up their VP2 as the lesser of all the other evils. I don't quite know why everyone shits on it so hard when our other choices are just as compromised. Hopefully it taught HTC a lesson and they don't half ass their next PCVR focused kit.

>>414367471
Yea I threw in shit roomscale as a cover for all.
And I'm not sold on any other inside out options till they can track every angle like Lighthouse

>>414367745
Did they reveal anything at the recent event with all the other dudes?

>>414368470
Nothing we didn't know from prior leaks, other than it at least seems solid, if expensive.
Oh and it'll have a goofy face tracking module at some point ($$$).

>>414368842
This looks jewish and also Bradlington said it's bad.

>>414368842
Looks like Squidward.

>>414365818
quest pro is actually really good, yeah its still streamed video, but it looks really good and tracking is basestation level.

>>414374003
Shut the fuck up.

>>414368427
This, I've upgraded from OG Vive to VP2 and love it.

>>414370417
Brad is a sex haver and goes outside so his opinion in not valid.

pornstars are so ugly nowadays thanks to all the attractive girls being able to just do softcore onlyfans garbage for cucked morons

so as a result 99% of VR porn is extremely ugly nasty bimbos getting all up in my face freaking me out with their disgusting faces and blown out roast beef pussies

so do mods yet work for HL2VR? anhd if so what ones should i try?

>>414385526
lobby is up code is vrg!

>>414388651
only pure map replacement with no custom code.

>>414388918
any good map mods?

>>414365818
Every PCVR headsets has compromises. Index itself had a bunch of compromises so using it as some kind of standard for a PCVR headset is weird.

>>414385308
does it make cat screeching noises

>>414308041
Palmer Lucky himself put it bluntly a couple of years ago: you can literally, unironically, give someone a headset for free and after they play it for a while they'll simply pack it up never to touch it again. Too much setup for games, that honestly just isn't worth it. Add that on top of accessories like FBT solutions or setting up wheel to your desk or whatever, and then it makes you wonder why you see vrgers just chilling in the vrg discord voice chats every single day. It's like me using my Switch: I don't like playing things handheld, I have to plug it into a monitor at least so that means a few minutes of setting up and then putting it off to the side. Needless to say I only touch it briefly nowadays when Splatoon 3 does events, but I wanna play more of the S&H expansions this year.

>>414401316
No, but that would be easy to mod in.

>>414391587
This. I don't get why people hold the Inded up as the pinnacle and flawless. There's plenty it does poorly by 2023 standards.

>>414365818
>>Quest/Pico/Wireless/Standalones
>stuck on lower quality
Stopped reading here. Braindead post.
Buy 4090 and see what maxed out Q2 looks like before talking next time.

>>414340742
closest I know of is Oathbreakers but that only works on oculus because they didn't actually bother to make it compatible with SteamVR
I can't actually play it myself and the only reason why I know it even exists is because of the youtuber named "I am" @iam2587 made a video on it where he talked about CP

>>414414403
Good luck with your blocking artifact when looking at detailed moving scenes.

>>414416624
You don't even understand how human vision works.
With proper setup artifacting is a non-issue.
So just stfu.

>>414414403
4090 user here with a dedicated wifi 6 router.

Quest 2 looks great, but there is still some artifacts in some scenes, particularly darker ones. It's definitely not bad, most of the time, but compared to a similar headset with a direct DisplayPort signal there is a difference.

>Trover Saves The Universe creator in jail for beating women
Is the game any good? I'm kind of tempted now to get a CD key along with Virtual Rickality.

>>414353183
Oh sweet, I was not expecting it that soon.

>>414366879
Questnigger here, 1 and 3/16ths inches.

>>414430670
Played a bunch of Breachers, it's really fun. Never played Siege so it's all new to me but the gadgets work great and swinging through a window is awesome. Only thing I don't like is the guns basically work like flatscreen games, the reloading is super basic and none of the mechanics of the gun are modeled. No +1 for a chambered round, and you can't even work charging handles or anything.

>>414436230
'Preciate it questfriend.

Has anyone managed to play Lone Echo on revive without crashing every 5 minutes?

>>414403841
It doesn't have to much setup if you just plan it out. I've got my playsapce laid out so I just put on my headset, grab my controllers, and play. I'll take five minute breaks to go to a VR shooting range or something in the middle of a workday. The experience only has friction if you make it have friction.

>>414453970
You forget that more people would rather watch others play video games than play them themselves.

new 200$ 4k wireless headset with good tracking, fov and controllers when?

>>414461964
Never?

>>414461964
This but 200 TWD.

>>414461964
>$200
Never. Cheap VR was a mistake they're already trying to rectify, get a new hobby.

>>414461964
2026, by which time PCVR will be on 12k superoled, pancake with syrup lenses, 200 vert&horizontal fov, seamless AR mode, full body tracking, gamer glove controllers and shipped with a virtual gf.
All for the low low price of $3000. Prerequisite $5k PC not included.

>>414463870
enjoy no games then

>>414464029
>2026, by which time PCVR will be on 12k superoled, pancake with syrup lenses, 200 vert&horizontal fov, seamless AR mode, full body tracking, gamer glove controllers and shipped with a virtual gf.
But it still wouldn't have any games.
Jokes aside, at that point we would only be at rtx 5090 and it wouldn't be able to handle 12k.
VR is sandbagged by GPU's hard.

>>414464036
Look at modern consoles like ps5, they sell like hotcakes, yet there are still no games.
There is some bigger issue which prevent games from being made.
Not sure what exactly

>>414464742
The nose.

People talmbout how VR has no games, but AC, DR2, and AMS2 are literal games.

>>414465063
I want more non-cockpit games on par with Alyx.
Started Walking Dead S&S tonight and it feels jank by comparison, despite being so highly recommended.

>>414465510
It is a bit jank but it's a vr game that is good. Alyx has the misfortune of being polished by valve, so is an absolute masterwork. But they polished a game full of VR misunderstandings so it loses a lot of impact that way. S&S has a more solid base but it isn't as polished.

>>414464742
No exclusives you mean, because it's way more profitable to make a NOT ps5 exclusive right now. PS5 has plenty of games optimized for it and full backwards compat with PS4.

>>414466474
Even exclusives aside.
AAA games are completely dead. It's so bad I wouldn't want to play them even if someone paid me to do it.

>>414465676
>full of VR misunderstandings so it loses a lot of impact that way. S&S has a more solid base

Im curious, what does Alyx do wrong and Walking Dead do much better?
I only played up till i reached the bus base thing. Could use some motivation to keep playing tomorrow.

Give me your best VR porn game suggestions.

>>414473219
Heat

There's like 20 VR porn games overall, anon, please, it's not that hard to find them all and see which you like.

>>414473219
Do you like femdom?

>>414466767
Alyx was designed for teleport move and other safety things like motion sickness and not being too scary and stuff like that. The combat arenas are all designed for teleporting from cover to cover and not smooth motioning between them. Transitions to other areas/jumping/crouching etc is handled by a teleport. It makes purposeful decisions to never put you on a moving platform or vehicle (with windows) and the entire pace of the game suffers for it. The pace in S&S is pushed down by being mostly a stealth game, and having segments where you have a limited amount of time in an area.

>>414473765
I dont know what they are and im lazy. Cause theres some on steam, but then you hear about patreon games and other crap from seedy coomer websites.

>>414473916
No, i just want standard degeneracy. No animals, dickgirl monsters or obnoxious fetish crap.

>>414473916
Yes but only gentle and loving femdom. No gay shit with strap-ons.

Anyone hosting hyperdash today?

>>414473219
Koikatsu, or if you really hate yourself you could get VAM

>>414479793
I tried Koikatsu and Honey Select after VAM and couldn't do it. Yea, VAM doesn't have gameplay and has an atricious interface but everytime I learn something new I am impressed or laugh my ass off. Plus with the right light the characters look pretty realistic.
I just learned how to import MikuMikuDance files into VAM so I got models flailing their boobs around while dancing to whatever I can find.

>>414481773
Is there much clipping and jank with the MMD animations in VAM? I used to play them in Koikatsu Studio and even after tweaking characters and settings there would still be some.

>>414481773
is VAM the type of game where if i put a body tracker on my crotch it can simulate me clapping cheeks?

>>414466767
Basic stuff like having your gun glued to your hand and switching weapons with a floating menu.

>>414484102
I only tried two songs, unforunately there was a little jank to the movement. I think you are meant to clean it up through timeline, but that's hard for me to do one-handed.
>>414484181
Yes. I just 3d printed an attachment that attaches a controller to a fleshlight in place of a tracker. Its supposed to have teledildonic support too, but that's been a little janky for me. I will have to sit there and figure that one out.

shieeet, i must just have to try that combo.
Also finally got the hype around the latest Varjo AR passthrough demos.

>>414418330
cope

>>414353183
Anyone else try this?

>>414488474
Would play but my work schedule doesn't allow it.

>>414501128
I've been playing it. It's like a casual, less bloated Rainbow Six Siege. Similar to Hyperdash it runs well and the art style makes it look decent despite the Quest 2 friendly assets. Textures on the guns look much nicer on the PCVR version.
The way sound muffles through walls and in the distance seems a little off to me but it does make you feel trapped inside while the enemy closes in around you. Breaching walls and bypassing traps is great when it all comes together. The vault mechanic is surprisingly good too, you can vault through windows as well as onto many tables and objects inside the building.
Gun selection is okay, I think it needs more mechanical variety as right now everything is automatic or semi-automatic. Reloads are simplified too so no pump actions or charging handles, just place a new magazine in and wait for the small delay.
I like how dead players can freely spectate and ping locations but only see items or enemy players that are visible to teammates, it makes the downtime less boring.
The Alpha is limited to 1 map but devs have hinted at more being added. There are 3 possible bomb spawn spots so there is some variety but after a few hours playing I've already figured out some of the strongest places to use the gadgets. I do wonder if a few more maps is enough for this kind of game. Siege became so bloated because it needed a stream of new stuff to keep the formula feeling fresh.

i got a pico 4 for PCVR to try it out, but it turns out there's no way to connect this to your PC via USB without first setting it up with wifi, is there? at least i cannot find any setup guide that doesn't involve connecting to some wifi shit. so i'm stuck at the wifi network selection screen while setting up.

i'll probably just return it if i'm forced to fuck around with wifi to use the thing

>>414488474
lobby is up

Host: dud snot
Region: Amsterdam
PW: 83375

>>414503873
3 bomb spawns but also 3 attacker spawns which is interesting. Thing is with a game like this you can really only begin to play it once you know the map like the back of your hand.

>>414503975
ok nvm managed to get past it by using my phone as a hotspot. but now it wont let me use streaming assistant until i update my headset, which would take 11 hours using my phone lol

>>414503873
Did the more general destruction feature of Rainbow Six Siege matter that much? From what I saw of the game, it looked more like it turned into a hero shooter.

>>414512075
That level of destruction in a competitive game inevitably led to all the fun being sucked out of it. A common tactic was to use individual bullet holes as spy holes and spray through the wall at anyone you saw move past.

>>414513524
I love it when unconventional tactics are taken out to make a game more streamlined, "competitively viable", and the same as every other game in its genre.

page 10 pity bump

>>414517134
Only removing random stuff makes a game more competitively viable. Competitive just does whatever is effective, there's no such thing as an unconventional tactic. If a tactic gets removed it's because the developers didn't think it was fun. Sometimes they're wrong and make stupid choices but blaming it on "competitiveness" is misplaced.

Tell me about your VR accessories or mods. Let's see whats worth buying or not.
Im considering getting cable pulleys for my cable connection, but ive heard mixed reviews. Maybe also a gun stick controller holder if i find one that is easy to swap out without pausing.

vg is fast today.

>>414540796
> https://4stats.io
/vg/ right now is actually quite a lot faster than /v/ and almost as fast as /pol/, it's gonna be hard to stay afloat

>>414540792
only one i've tried and can recommend are the vrcover replacement gaskets for the index. the fake leather is nicer than the index cloth imo.

>>414544139
Half of the generals are glorified anime-girl fapping clubs, jannies seriously need to separate those into a seperate board to ease the pressure.
Otherwise /vrgg/ needs protected status cause its covering the whole VR gaming genre, but thats not possible without pinning.

We need a vr board. Really need a breeding ground.
Maybe go conquer /vr/?

>>414546474
They made /vmg/ which could have solved the problem but it doesn't allow generals for some fucking reason. /vrg/ just needs to be much more lenient to slow threads. That or a VR board, some people might say it would be too slow for that but we still have /po/ so I don't really see a problem.
I will never understand why the gacha threads are so popular.

>>414548472
Gatcha probably needs its own board and to be banished there. Though speaking of which are there any vr gatcha games? I played a bit of granblue back in the day but I can't imagine how you'd get that kind of gameplay loop into a vr game.

>>414540792
I've looked at gunstocks for years. Those assholes at Protube charge way too much. I printed this just to see if it worked. It does in fact work, you just have to get familiar with sliding them together when in VR. While its not a real stock it creates a solid grip which improves your accuracy.
Just trying to find a way to attach them without messing up the finish as they have.

>>414556654
How well does reloading work?

>>414557980
I did not have any issues in Contractors VR. Pistols in H3VR were a problem as they would hit the 3D prints parts because of how precise he has the reloading animations. It also loses its effectiveness with pump action shotguns or lever action guns.

>>414556654
Wish there were more options for knuckles. Can find tons of cheapo stocks for oculus controllers.

page 10

>>414559840
how in the fuck would you reload at all using a gun stock when you cant move your ingame hands

>>414540792
i have a cable pulley thing and its pretty fucking great. should have gotten one a long time ago.

i also have a little USB fan that plugs in the index which helps keep it from being so hot on my face, and i got a set of leather wraps and a leather faceplate thing so everything that touches my head doesnt absorb sweat and feels cooler than all that cloth shit it otherwise would have. its so much fucking better with all this and its not more than $200.

>>414403841
its great if you actually invest in a good setup and also sometimes use it for what its best at especially, like flight and racing sims

zucc ruined its reputation by trying to make it a cheap accessible gimmick for tasteless retarded normies

>>414572051
Controllers are cupped, cups have magnets that click on and off the stock.

>>414572221
Yea I have thin face pad for my VP2 thats practically mandatory. But not enough people mention attaching a fan to that thing. I saw one guy mod it on reddit and did the same to mine, its likely saved me from a lot of the overheating issues people have with the headset, and its barely noticeable despite the slight bulk.

>>414572926
its so much better. i never get nausea but i get disoriented a little when i get hot sometimes, i wonder how much motion sickness or disorientation would be averted if these headsets didnt insulate your head with extra heat or people used icepacks that fit onto the headset. that would be especially useful for games where you break a sweat

>tfw you find out pistol whip defaults aim assist and you need to use deadeye

actually having to aim has me stuck on easy mode

>>414578312
duh but imo most of the fun of that game is just shooting tons of shit insanely fast with the autoaim. not everything has to be super realistic

>>414578312
It's a rhythm game. Nominally.

>>414503873
Kinda wish the art style was more inspired, it feels like they could've leaned into the near future look more. Everyone's fairly generic looking despite the cloaking devices and futuristic gadgets.

>>414547063

Please rewrite this post in the style of an unhinged Alex Jones rant.

>>414601020
Look, get this. I was in one of those, what do you call em, Virtual Reality headsets? where you're inside this other world and everything?. And im telling you, this technology is crazy.. but of course we had this back in the 60s, the CIA definitely had it back then.. but they're finally letting it go out into the public... and ..well you gotta see it for yourself.
One of the first things, get this, one of the first things you do in these so called artificial worlds, these video games as they're trying to pass them off right now..is teleportation, yes thats right, and i know what you're thinking 'oh geez Alex thats cause you dont have legs how else will you get around'.. no but thats not the point, look at how difficult it is today, look at all the things humanity can do, and yet in our first simulations, the first act is.. to teleport? And this is impossible in real life, we're building skyscrapers but we cant jump through space, what does this mean, what are the artificial limits of our reality!?
But no anyway, we cant bother with those questions, sports ball, celebrities and this globalist mind virus is keeping us distracted...BUT KNOW WHEN THE TIME COMES, YOU WILL ALL HAVE THINGS FORCIBLY STRAPPED TO YOUR HEAD AND YOU WILL SEE THE LIES THEY TOLD YOU, BUT IT WILL BE TOO LATE.. im sorry, it just makes me mad sometimes

These might be pretty good on their 3rd or 4th iterations. Right now i just feel that Natural Locomotion is the best solution for how cheap, simple and unobtrusive it is.
Played through Alyx just swinging my arms and it was much better than joystick or teleports. Wanna get the feet involved but its such a hassle getting extra trackers.

>>414610452
Natural stick locomotion does it good enough for gamers that have had a controller in their hand since they were 4; the swinging is fun at first, but it becomes annoying fast because while you swing you cant do anything else with your hands. And dont get me started on teleportation - who ever thought that would be a good mechanic. I always thought it was a performance and ressource thing, but apparently there are greaks that prefer teleportation

For me it's the human analog stick.

>>414610923
There was like one guy who used to be at Valve who insisted that he could never adapt to stick movement and that it would always make people violently ill and I blame him for all of the bad decisions that plagued early VR.

>a fucking writer is responsible for gameplay decisions

I guess he was respected in Valve, and with their weird "flat but not really structure" everyone was afraid to oppose him. I also blame Half Life 2 movement, I guarantee you that first VR test were done with the same acceleration and momentum prone VR movement as Half Life 2.

In Half-Life 2 VR I felt a bit quesy with the weird motion response, althought I have no motion sickness in any game usually. (They patched out to more VR friendly movement). I kinda understand how somebody not used to VR can get sick in a first generation test build with low framerate and that movement.

>>414625212
>In Half-Life 2 VR I felt a bit quesy with the weird motion response
It still feels to slow

>>414626061
You might be misremembering because you, like any respectable pc gamer, played on very high FoV, which causes increased sense of speed.

Half Life 2 VR is definitely as fast as original, you couldn't make some jumps if it wasn't. The issue for VR is the acceleration ramp and momentum, which they got rid of in a later patch.

I have a tech question for you guys
I have an almost ancient Alienware R4 with a Vega 64 and a 3930k
It's a pcie 2.0, ddr3 motherboard, would a newer motherboard with ddr4 memory and at least pcie 3.0 make a big difference, or should I just go all in and build a whole new PC?
I'd likely need a new case to upgrade the motherboard anyway.

>>414626595
A new mobo and ram ain't gonna do shit with those specs anon, VR's one of the most graphics-heavy things you can do right now. Hold out for the full upgrade.

>>414595881
>walk yourself easily in real life

Vr porn videos are the biggest let down of VR so far for me.
You can't stream the 4k to the quest fast enough to avoid buffering, and PH won't even let you use 4k.
The whole find a video, download it, transfer it, have the camera be so damn close you can't even see without consciously crossing your eyes or closing one thing is just not something I want to do.
I don't understand, it's like no one who's making these videos has actually tried watching one afterwards. They're just bad.
It's a bad experience.

>>414428671
I didn't play much, ironically because it was a hassle for me to setup the psvr camera to sit down and play a game with a controller, but it seemed good in the couple of hours I played. If his rambling humor is funny to you and you like platformers you'll likely enjoy it.

You can make it nauseous. Like the "comfort acceleration curve" or "vignetting" options are extremely uncomfortable for me. It's something that people could probably get used to but it's still nauseating.

anyone here have the nreal air glasses? I keep getting tempted by them as a 2nd virtual monitor. I already do some regular computer stuff with the index and xsoverlay and it's pretty nice, I could see the one virtual 1080p monitor in the air being compelling trading off the brick on my face.

can someone give me a run down on skyrim vr? Is modding it any different than modding regular skyrim? How do I get the sex mods and all that?

Got any gameplay webms? Being able to record Quest-targeted games on PC without dropping frames has been a nice silver lining.

>>414647867
what software do you use to record? Also game?

>>414649209
AMD ReLive. It's bad though. OBS is the standard, I use ReLive because it's built into the driver suite.
It's the Breachers alpha, found here: >>414353183

>>414649880
Also more webms.

>>414644016
Someone posted about this before. The virtual monitor is parented to your head.

Why are fmv games not a bigger thing in VR?
Theres nothing more realistic right now than loading up a 5-8k porn video and having all that fidelity handled from a recording. But practically noone is incorporating videos into games.
You could crank out a good campaign worth of content from just a month of shooting, overlayed with a basic VR gameplay component and bob's your uncle.
Id jump on this if i had a few grand to spare.

Here for the first time, bought a really early used VR headset(CV1) for cheap a few months ago after being skeptical for a long time and figured I might as well check this thread if anyone's playing anything good.
YMMV with a less clunky setup but some of my bullet points regarding this topic would look a little something like this:

* Unless you've mounted the sensors/whatever your headset needs somewhere convenient, it's a lot of setup time to install/uninstall your VR environment.
* Not everyone has the kinda space to spare to play VR comfortably even if you do manually install/uninstall your kit everytime.
* Despite the aforementioned points and the overall large investment necessitating a certain enthusiasm for it, most VR games seem only "okay", and a lot seem kind of on the casual side. Either very short/focused games or games that almost feel more like humorous social media virality bait dense on "VR hijinks" and thin on actual substance. Currently I've played Beat Saber the most because that feels almost like a really good Wii-era rhythm game, a game like that would be super popular with casuals I reckon if it wasn't for the barrier of entry(and probably the relative inconvenience of hotseating)
* Most games that aren't thinner than a silk thread tend to be some version of shooting/slicing gallery with swords/guns/throwables that seem to all play vaguely similar. If you don't like one or more of these gameplay styles, your selection shrinks considerably.
* I'm nearsighted and my glasses don't fit behind the lens. Again, YMMV depending on device(and this is probably fixable with a peripheral/different lens), but it's another barrier to consider.
* High intensity games are straight-up just cardio exercises.
* I suppose if you wanna play porn you gotta be comfortable with the fact you've basically just put on a blindfold and earplugs and that you're jerking off two pieces of plastic instead of your own joystick. Never tried but sounds awkward.

>Unless you've mounted the sensors/whatever your headset needs somewhere convenient, it's a lot of setup time to install/uninstall your VR environment.
That's why lots of headsets have inside out tracking.
>I'm nearsighted and my glasses don't fit behind the lens. Again, YMMV depending on device(and this is probably fixable with a peripheral/different lens), but it's another barrier to consider.
There's companies making prescription lenses for most headsets nowadays, so that's not really an issue.

>>414738545
>That's why lots of headsets have inside out tracking.
If there's headsets out there without that setup, then fair enough. Just saying, if you have a headset that does require you to do this shit, and you can't just keep everything set up past the first time so it just works subsequently(which includes freeing up that space in the room), it's gonna be extra legwork every time.

>There's companies making prescription lenses for most headsets nowadays, so that's not really an issue.
Yeah I said that, but it's an extra purchase you have to hassle with, and you may have to swap the lenses regularly too if you share the device with someone(assuming those lenses work the way I think they do and make everything blurry for people not on your prescription).

It's lots of little tiny things like that.

>>414735823
Space is more of a priority problem. People need to make space in their home for other activities and they'll do so for VR if it becomes enticing enough.

>>414742356
It'll be very interesting if people start looking for living spaces with holodecks in mind. It's something that I care a lot about.

>>414743781

>>414735823
i see, I have a pretty solid setup with my headset. I got one of those remotes that turns on a plug and when i press 1 button it turns on the hmd, my router for wireless and ir lights for tracking at night. DOnt even need to stand up.
I use boot apps to autolaunch right into virtual desktop, have no guardian setup so no menus to go through.
Yes I need to wait 2 minutes for the router to boot up, but after that i am in. With basestations its about the same bootup time anyway.

>>414748174
Get https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1563 for proper roomscale and VR menus and use DLSS for better performance and I think that it's fine. No Man's Sky is one of those games that is only fun with friends, and thankfully you can play with flat players even if you are in VR.

My game hitches for 1ms whenever SteamVR's boundaries get activated, it's reproducible and I can see it with fpsVR, what the fuck do I do?

>>414647867
why is it that the VR footage is almost always tilted a bit

>>414765748
because its basically gopro helmet cam footage. and user cannot see if hmd is slightly tilted

>>414765331
Do you need to see your boundaries? You can set it to only show floor boundaries in Steamvr. OVR Advanced VR lets you disable them entirely.

>>414765748
I don't know. You'd expect it to be a little misaligned because people's heads aren't perfectly upright, but I think in this case, the spectator view might have a weird projection. I tilt my head to aim down sights though.

Cross play with quest games are as good as dead to me.

I'd say no. They're certainly present but it isn't dire like Hyper Dash where every single game is filled with prepubescent kids. The average age seems to be a lot higher. Running into ankle biters is remarkably annoying instead of just expected.

>>414826985

>>414829514
>At least when you're dooming about VR in this thread you probably know what you're talking about.
I put down vr fanatics on /v/ all the time. It's really funny when they refer to the "poorfag" insult when I have a better pc and played 10 times more vr games than them.
I just find that lying about actual state of things is disgusting.

Now that I think about it again, the real problem is lack of content.

>>414830232
Content and discoverability because there's not much good stuff but it's also weirdly difficult to find the good stuff that's out there. But I'm hoping for the day when we can have threads about VR games instead of VR as a whole.

>>414830504
>Content and discoverability because there's not much good stuff but it's also weirdly difficult to find the good stuff that's out there.
I disagree. People are fucking starved so they are actively search for things (me included) and everything half-decent that they find is amplified massively (think ItR for example).

>>414830729
If you have to actively search then that's a discoverability problem. Into the Radius is quite old and people know about it, but for example I really liked Wanderer from last year and I'm not sure if I've ever seen it come up in a discussion. I think it sucks that a new VR game can come out like that and yet I don't find out about until many months after release when I'm actively looking for new games.

>>414831332
>but for example I really liked Wanderer from last year and I'm not sure if I've ever seen it come up in a discussion.
What? It's very popular by vr standards, look at the number of steam reviews for example.
The thing is, single player story games are played on the release week and basically "forgotten" after.

I watched a review, it looks like shit visually but apparently its fun.

>>414839632
>women and niggers in racing
LOL, so immersive!!!!

I really wanna get vive trackers just for the feet locomotion and the gimmicky shit in other games.
But that fucking price man. And the cheaper ones suck too so i dont wanna compromise.

I wonder if Valve will figure out a cheaper version, but then I suspect they'll just go inside-out for their next hardware including body tracking and make the lighthouse ecosphere nigh obsolete.

anyone interested in a pico 4 35% discount code at bestware?

Do you think varifocal optics will make that substantially harder?

>>414881107
It would make it easier.

>>414881107
I aim better with optics

>>414882342
Right now in VR the sights and the target are all in the same focal plane. With future varifocal optics that might not be the case anymore and like in real life you either focus on the target or focus on the front sight (and the target is blurry).

>>414881602
Only one of those statements is true.

>>414882867
That's probably a sure thing. Although I do feel like I'm a bit better with iron sights on pistols as an emergency so I'm not wasting time searching for the red dot. That is if the game doesn't have a huge reticle option like Contractors or Vail.

>>414881107
Pistols I'm fine with. Rifles forget about it. I have more success point shooting.

>>414883173
How does the varifocal lens even work in a situation like this? If you're looking down the sights of a gun how would it know which sight you're focused on or if you're focused on the target? I get the feeling that might fuck things pretty bad.

>>414888307
Needs a high enough resolution eye tracking solution to resolve it.

>>414888529
>>414888307
I think some kind of multiple layered screen would be a better solution.

How to I prevent bricking when sideloading pirated games?

>>414881107
Awful but I am european, we don't have guns How are you supposed to use iron sights? I always get double vision, is it my IPD?

>>414900506
You're supposed to see two images, but if you're having trouble focusing on the aligned one, you might be cross-eye dominant. Which makes it a bit awkward in VR to aim with both eyes open.

>>414900506
The low resolution and everything being the same focal distance away makes them artificially difficult to use in VR. You probably have weak eye dominance too, which will make the wrong image visible when a gun is partially obscuring an eye. You can partially close one eye, or learn to manually switch which eye is dominant.

>>414897707

That's not how it works senpai.
I think it got too annoying for me to mirror hosting posts over here personally since it shares a post timer with the other thread.
Meaning /vrgg/ seems best for single player experiences sharing and discussion

>>414925739
Do most people join from /vrg/? I'll admit I haven't joined any lobbies from here because I'm on burger hours.

>>414929302
Both threads share more or less the same people.
And most use both in varying degrees depending.

>>414929504
I actively avoided /vrg/ for years because its full of VRchat faggotry. Thank god at least one of you had the bright idea to make a thread for the rest of us. Maybe ill join a lobby one day, if I can do so with complete anonymity or having to use my mic.

>>414929504
I don't, because I don't use VR Chat.

>>414854812
my guess is someone will make imu based trackers that will work just as well as vive pucks in about 3 years time.

>>414934409
IMUs are fundamentally limited by the math involved though. Something needs to correct the integration error. I'd sooner believe that someone figures out how to do good enough body tracking through downward/inward facing cameras on the headset and controllers without any extra tracking hardware.

>the best high res, high fov, best colour and blackest black contrast headset could get in your hands tomorrow
>you would still be stuck with a library of roblox tier dogshit and arcades

We need some kind of super high graphical quality mandate to be imposed for VR. Even if the majority cant run these games today. They need to start development now to be ready for release by the time these headsets become the norm.
I think one of Zuck's greatest mistakes was funding an ocean of mediocre indie titles instead of setting aside a few hundred million to build some real mindblowing VR apps.

The strategy of making these cheap gimmicks affordable isnt good enough. Its time to make people think 'hey, i wanna save up a couple of grand for this expensive thing that is going to let me explore a reality thats greater than my own'

>>414930317
I can't really think of a single multiplayer VR game where people don't use their mics. Maybe Contractors.

When are we getting lossless nofio wireless for the vive and other headsets?
I wanna upgrade my VP2 but the HTC solution cant hand full res and fps.

Do you think Breachers will lean into the cyberpunk aesthetic more in the full release? The main menu backdrop has it nailed but not so much the rest of it.

>>414951647
Do people who dont use the mic get team killed?

>>414976357
Just use the mic, you autistic retard, it's fucking built-in in the headset for a reason.

>>414976720

>>414929504
>Both threads share more or less the same people.
I doubt that, I actively avoid the other thread because I don't want to be anywhere near those mental ill fucks.

>>414951481
Any company that actually tried to do that would go out of business very quickly.

>>414951481
Who are they going to sell those games to? The niche is tiny, and producing high fidelity quality games costs tens of millions and takes years. First you need to hook enough up, then you sell them AAA quality cocaine for a price and in a quantity that justifies taking the risk

>>414976720
no I have a squeaky voice and social anxiety

>>414976357
No, just slight disappointment when you don't talk. There are a couple of mutefags that join /vrg/gg/ lobbies and for some reason nobody bullies them into unmuting.

>>414976720
>Just use the mic,

>>414987095
huh? just don't say gamer words. simple as

>>414983886
>>414983886
Build it, and they will come.
The metaverse was the last straw as far as im concerned. Everyone rightly laughed at Zuck's crusty mobile game tier virtual world.
We need something compelling enough to make people give up serious disposable money, the kind of money that would usually go to golf clubs, bicycles, hifi audio systems, fancy furniture etc.
To do that you need to be presenting close to holodeck tier apps, pandora planets, hyperrealistic bladerunner cities, HL:Alyx as a baseline vidya instead of a standout, normie virtual party meetups except they look like they're at the met gala with celebrities instead of a furry second life convention.
The niche is tiny because almost everything sucks right now and normies arent going to buy a $2000 headset to play 20 polygon minigolf for 5 minutes.
If Apple are smart to this they could unironically step in and take all the marketshare right now with just one killer app. And Meta will be pissing on the side cause they've spent the last 5 years trucking shovelware for billions of dollars.

>>414989036
>normies arent going to buy a $2000 headset to play 20 polygon minigolf for 5 minutes
sure, but they might spend 300 on it and bring the capital needed to build blade runner cities and holodeck shit; and a portion gets hooked from 20 poly golf and ends up here or at the furry convention with a 5K set up

>>414983886
Everything that releases these days sells peanuts so it's easy to say PCVR is a tiny niche with no market and no money to be made but Alyx seems to have sold extremely well and is still selling well to this day. It's not like that market just disappeared. I know 5 normalfags that all bought Alyx and now just have headsets collecting dust because nothing that releases these days is even remotely close in quality.
If a decent dev team is willing to work on a VR game there is money to be made but outside of Valve nobody wants to take the risk.

tonight is pavlov

>>414992484
Not no market, just a tiny one, with potential giant growth, the question is if it is the slow or fast case, and guess the latter seems more likely.
What I am mostly criticizing is that the quality of games isnt even that bad as this remanents of /v/ discordianism seems to suggest, its just less every year 5 AAA titles and more small growing dev teams potentially becoming behemots one day expanding their games, and here you make a good point, Alyx is now nearly three years old and still gets new reviews from paying customers, same goes for the rest of steams popular vr games ranking with titles from 2018, technically 2011.

The strategy isnt even that bad it generates a slowly growing customer base, keeps the existing hooked with small updates and attracts new ones, while the dev teams can build a war chest to take on bigger projects.

>>415000831
not for me

>>414951481
>explore a reality thats greater than my own
whos gonna make it? cucks on zuccs payroll are lazy and complacent, it will take decades for indie fags to shit out maybe a playable alpha, and any real studio simply wont get any funding for such a meme project

>>415003054
Oculus studios seems like a fucking black hole. You get acquired by Facebook and then it's like all you do is terrible updates to the existing game that you got bought out for.

What does Snoy have to lose making PSVR2 compatible with SteamVR? I doubt making it PS5-only will drive console sales that much

>>415045937
it wont. Sony could have reversed its last mistake and tackle the market for those that dont want a standalone pcvr makeshift hmd but neither wont to spend 1000+ on a pcvr only. Typical sony

>>415045937
They are the same company too incompetent and lazy to make their headset backwards compatible with PSVR1 games. Don't give them too much credit.

>>415045937
I believe there is muchmore demand for PSVR2 to work on pc that PSVR so that makes it more possible.

/vrg/ tourists are one thing, we know the reports do nothing for them

>>415045937
The "article" is based on complete speculation. Just because he is a dev, doesn't mean he is competent, especially considering how "easy" psvr1 was.
It's very unlikely sony will go out of their way to lock down the headset, they are not subsidizing it and other products were easily usable on pc (dualsense even provides mic and headphone jack drivers by default for example).
The only real issue i can see is the tracking software, but I think it can easily be solved the PC way, aka throwing more processing power at it.

TLDR: wait till release, retards.

How is fallout 4 VR?

>images blocked by default on an image board

Fallout 4 ran worse than Skyrim for some reason. Also even flat Skyrim modding has always been more popular than Fallout.

Im checking out the reddit now and im surprised how scant it still is. Would have thought there would be more of a scene catching up the content, if for nothing else than variety, given its the only other big VR rpg on the market.
I feel overwhelmed trying to get SkyrimVR modded again, theres a sense of fomo if i accidentally miss a crucial mod thats not on X list. And dont wanna deal with compatibility and load orders going custom.

Might try Fallout4VR with just the basics people recommend. In a roundabout way its more appealing because im not flooded with options.

More processing power really isn't going to help if you have to basically come up with your own tracking system from reverse-engineered sensors.

Valve is working with a company who's working on an open source inside-out tracking solution.

Vertex groups and shape keys, like anything that is unused, should be removed for the sake of optimisation. How much of an impact they make is variable but always non-zero. Active shapekeys are more expensive than unused ones.

Pavlov is not the same as Pavlov Shack, they were never meant to have crossplay like you said. I would be surprised if Pavlov PSVR2 cannot crossplay Pavlov PCVR. They are getting rid of the workshop for mod.io which only makes sense if you want additional platforms to utilize mods. PSVR2 Pavlov is DOA without mods. Pavlov needs a player population injection as well which crossplay could do.

PSVR2 + PCVR are getting crossplay. Limited to matchmaking and official maps. PSVR2 modding is planned for later and will be restricted in some way to avoid IP infringement.

I just saw that modding won't be available immediately, lol. I figured IP infringement would be a problem, but didn't know how they'd handle it. Curious if the modbase will be the same for PSVR2 and PCVR and if that means mods will be limited for PCVR by the developers so they are not within copyright infringement on PSVR2.

>>415307373
PCVR will keep it's mods. The potential for IP infringement is the big issue to Sony, they're extremely restrictive even in their own games like the LittleBigPlanet series. Skyrim on Playstation had to be kept in a walled garden which is why the Xbox version had better mods.
They have a few options:
>Update the modkit with a pack of assets to build levels from, blocking all third party assets on PSVR2 uploads
>Whitelist original PCVR maps
>Outright purchase popular third party maps like they did for Industry
>The first option but with whitelisted third party assets or packs

That would instantly kill the game like it did Onward. No one wants to play with kids. Keeping them contained in pavlov shack is the only thing keeping pcvr pavlov alive.

Levitation is boring as shit

>>415372081
Stop treating Alyx as a game. It's a glorified "look at pretty environments" scene viewer.

>>415372252
I wouldn't mind if there was better story, the intro is all epic and cinematic and then the rest is just corridors with no purpose
And other than the excavator there are no pretty sights. Most of the assets are vanilla
Lesson learned, doubt I'll play other Alyx mods

Is modded Fallout 4 VR worth it yet? Looks like two handing guns is still jank.

>>415168683
>mobile only

Just wanted to shill Vengeful Rites. Don't let the horrible art, crappy graphics, and awful voice acting dissuade you, this is a really solid action/adventure VR game.

I've noticed that the mirrored/spectator screen on my flat monitor is also always tilted, even if I take the headset off and set it down on a flat surface.

>>415362503
I don't imagine the Quest playerbase and the PSVR2 playerbase is the same. The barrier to entry for the Quest is much lower.

>>415385693
Handling two handed objects in any game is jank. It's why the shotgun and SMG in Alyx are one handed, and why spears in GORN are all bendy.

When the kiddies are done with VTOL VR, I'll see you in DCS.

When the kiddies are done with [any game that's not AC], I'll see you in AC.

I wonder if Valve would keep babying users like that now after everyone else has long since stopped caring.

>>415385693
The VR implementation has gotten decent with FRIK and even little things like Better Scopes VR. The shimmering and performance can be annoying, but the DLAA/DLSS mod should fix that for good soon. I'd say it is worth it. Even as the worst mainline Fallout it's still better than 99% of VR RPGs.

Done with Breachers.
Shitty netcode, garbage UI and faggot devs who push people to discord just to get basic info. How hard it is to display dmg values of guns and have basic bug submitting in the game itself? Why everything has to be in the fucking discord?
I hate such niggers so fucking much.

>pool noodle weapons are less jank than two handed weapons
Now this is a certified retard moment. I will admit, not being able to pivot the weapon around across your palm is pretty annoying and severely limits the range of swings but if you're unironically going to use GORN as an indicator of good melee combat in vr you need to kill yourself. That game was not meant to be immersive or realistic and it was made really early in vr so no one really knew a good standard for control schemes. Also the bendy weapons in that game was a means to give weapons a feeling of weight, not to accentuate lack of control when using one hand for a two handed weapon. Making your whole arm lag behind your irl position is the preferred alternative for making things appear to have weight in vr. Granted I don't like either of those options, especially in something like saints and sinners where your arms sway around so much it feels like you're drunk.

>>415411037
We managed pavlov servers back when they were forced public.

>>415414161
You cannot kick people in that game.

>>415416227
You couldn't in Pavlov, either. We had to keep teamkilling them until they left.

Anyone getting the PSVR2?
I came into a bit of money and thought of getting it. Mostly for the Resident Evil games.

>>415405776
Delusional,
Netcode is fine, we just can't get into server near us.

UI is one of the best in VR.

Forcing into discord is shit though, yes.

>>415372252

>>415419451
>Netcode is fine, we just can't get into server near us.
You are a nigger who just didn't play enough.
Once you get killed by an enemy who teleported inside while you were holding a window, only for that window to finally break 2 second later, you will understand.
It's not a ping issue, something is fundamentally wrong with the netcode. There is no other explanation for 2 seconds of peeker advantage.

>>415419893
I've been thinking it over because my current headset is the Quest 2, which was my entry headset, and I enjoyed it a lot. It just lags sometimes and I can see fps drops. Also for some games, it looks like I warped into a PS1 game, which is fun but I want to be able to immerse in hyper realism. I'm just not sure just how "hyper realism" the PSVR2 is.

>>415419451
Euro I'm guessing? I'm lucky enough to have a server within 12ms ping and for the most part, I feel like the game has effectively no peeker's advantage and the one holding the angle almost always wins.

>>415421391
>I feel like the game has effectively no peeker's advantage and the one holding the angle almost always wins.
The game relies on client hit detection. On average people are new so they don't know how to abuse the movement system yet, and hence move slowly, so it looks like the defender has an advantage, but that's completely wrong in reality.

>Finished Boneworks
I thought it was pretty short, it was a lot braver than Alyx was at being a game but I hated every moment of climbing just like in Alyx, can't imagine Bonelabs being any shorter especially for the price it's asking for

Red Matter 1 was like an hour long. I hope 2 is a lot more substantial.

>>415419318
I pre-ordered. I already own an Index and nearly every notable PC VR game, but I'm too interested in the hardware gimmicks of eye-tracking/foveated rendering, headset rumble, and adaptive triggers.

It's a shame how there's seemingly no way to track the DualSense gamepad, because games like Astro Bot and Statik are top-tier and should be preserved. I'm also bummed that the developers of Blood & Truth have seemingly all but dropped VR to make a live-service co-op action game guaranteed to flop even worse than a VR title. Apart from the repetitive interactions where you're lockpicking and unscrewing security panels, the game was really fun--despite the limitations of the Move controllers. Could've been an excellent sequel with the new hardware.

>>415431527
>headset rumble
That doesn't sound very pleasant

>>415431527
>foveated rendering
carmack said they tried it, but it was a shit experience because the eye moves too fast

anyone else had issues with steamVR after changing GPU?
swapped GPU yesterday, tried to boot up VR today and it prompted a room setup again but somehow bluetooth doesn't seem to be working
tried reinstalling steamvr, plugging it in a different USB slot, removing all bluetooth devices from device manager and restarting
the bluetooth option under devices -> bluetooth setting looks like picrel

I know the headset itself is connected because it shows up in sound settings so thats not it

>>415433104
does your Steam/config/steamvr.vrsettings still list the old gpu? might be worth cleaning it out of there if so

>>415433257
nope, new one, also removed any old files related to it after uninstalling steamVR from steam and installing it again
its wierd because it doesn't feel like an issue that should be related to a GPU but thats realistally the only thing that changed between yesterday when it was still working and now

>>415419318
Is it even wireless?

>>415428134
Saints and Sinners
Asgard's Wrath
Lone Echo 1+2
Into the Radius

All worth checking out if you haven't already.

>>415428134
If you got a high spec PC and don't mind a little bit of jank with mods, the Resident Evil games(REmake 2&3, 7, and 8) are pretty fun. Outer Wilds with the VR mod is super polished if you like exploration games too.

>play walking dead
>get kinda tired but game wont let me save in the zone so i get a bit careless to go out
>get fucked by 2 zombies cause i somehow didnt aim my axe properly
>lose like half an hour to my last save

Damn, this game is bit more hardcore than i expected for a VR title

>>415445226
I got fucked up at the first pump too after underestimating how hard swarms can be to deal with. You can get into a real stamina death spiral between trying to run away, shank them, and shake them off. If you want to really style on them get exploding arrows.

>>415433015
He just said it wouldn't be the magic bullet. But it could still crawl back some performance and that'll improve with better eye tracking.

>>415449050
Grabbing them by the head and shoving them back into others can stagger a bunch and buy you some precious few seconds.

>>415419318
I had it preordered but ended up cancelling it. The big bulky controllers and having to invest into another ecosystem just ended up turning me off. The small meta pro controllers spoiled me so I don't want to downgrade to something that is twice the size.

Anyone want to join me for some BallisticNG in VR in half an hour. A bunch of other /vg/tard also race then.

>>415478364
Looks kinda cool but I have no motivation to play a game in public lobbies.

>>415419318
I am. Bought resi8 and Turismo 7 on sale and am now waiting. We can host Turismo lobbies here since it's been confirmed that the entire game including online races will be vr compatible. I've been playing through it and it's an abhorrent grind but I think itll be worth it by the end when I can buy my dream cars and drive them down the nordschleife in vr

No one I know around me is into vr so I'm really putting my hope into this thread

>>415457650
Which the psvr2 has. Every single previewer has mentioned that they didn't even notice the eye tracking at all.

The best I can do is 60fps with reprojection.

>>415556495
haha? The headset has a mediatek chip inside which im guessing is being used to render the "cinematic" environment so the actual content can run just as well as it would on an real world display

>>415558684
Oh, my bad. I forgot that when playstation players say "games", they actually mean "movies".

>>415428134
>can't imagine Bonelabs being any shorter especially for the price it's asking for
100% on both games; Boneworks lasted me twice as long, though I did do a co-op playthrough at one point. It's very obviously a Quest game first.

>>415559968

Resident Evil 4 VR is pretty fun. Is it normal for the Quest 2 to get this hot, though?

>>415565308
with games that take it to its limit, yes. Quest 2 is just a phone, dont forget that. No dedicated graphic processor, just a snapdragon xr2

Except they have far better thermal solutions, since weight isn't a factor like it is on a device that you strap to your head. Also, the SeX and PS5 SoC's aren't mobile chips. And are also irrelevant to a conversation about the Quest 2.

Is there a way to emulate Quest 2 games on a PCVR setup yet?

>>415583106
Haven't heard of one yet.

Two more weeks.

>>415596936

>>415599890
Just kidding I'm not even convinced it'll be anything this year. I think they'd make a new headset when they can get something standalone that can still run Alyx.

>>415591308
You retards who seriously expect the Deckard "soon" and have been doing so for a literal year are a sad bunch. I'll bet it's not even gonna be anything like the thing that's been built up in people's heads, unless it doesn't release for another 2 years.

are there any tower defense or RTS VR games?

>>415627093
They're used to being ignored, for an autist it's the safer option and that's why they pick it. If they wanted more attention they would have unmuted already.
Either bully/threaten them until they relent (it really is for their own good) or make them feel ashamed of hiding from people who want to be their friend.

>>414985540
That just means you'll blend in with all of the Quest 2 children.

it's pretty sad that old piece of shit index is still one of the best choices for consumer vr, like gaming
it should be long replaced by better hmds, but so far the only real competitors we have are quest 2 and pico 4 which are pretty decent but have their downsides as well
