>>386635134
It's been on sale all summer for $399.

>>386635050
the cameras have a filter that only lets uv light through
supposedly that is

I've not been following VR but why have they decided to had those hand sticks? It looked perfect before when it was just the headset + controller setup.

Why add handsticks that stop traditional movement and force you to wave your arms around wii-mote style to play the game? This isn't comfortable.

>>386635134
No anon
Its 399$ the whole pack now.
>>386635213
...sure

>>386634127
Hope you have fun, only time I used VR was the Oculus demo kit back in 2015 because I was in a program for coding at a local university for the summer. Very little titles I want to play in VR so I'll wait for it to get refined. Hope you have fun anon! (I also recommend the manga Ressentiment by Kengo Hanazawa as it's a fun read on what happens when a grown ass man gets addicted to a VR girl)

>>386635239

So you can control a left and a right hand individually.

>>386635050
This just makes it even better imo

>>386635239
You can move your fingers and grab things like in real life. You need it to play some games.
You can still use a controller if you dont like it

>>386634127
hope you have your receipt because you'll be wanting to return that shit in a couple weeks

>tfw just got the touch controllers because I only had the headset before.

Feels good man. Wish Onward was on sale, though. I've got $60 in Steam cards, want to make the money last. No idea what else I'd get.

If any of you are interested in VR, you should get the Oculus client now, get an account, and secure a copy of Echo Arena before they start charging full price for it. It's only going to be free for a few months or something. Really cool game. You can delete it afterwards or whatever.

>>386637182
Anything intense to suggest (especially free/mods)? I want to play high-action or horror titles with standard locomotion (not teleporting).

>>386636783
Honey Select is nice. Very comfy game, for lack of a better descriptor. Has integrated VR, but the mod for it is better.

>>386637143
It isn't an insane amount of work. In the end, it's got an amazing character editor, and it feels really intimate throughout the whole process. I liked it.

Robo Recall and Serious Sam are fantastic, especially once you get over how weird using control sticks to move instead of that teleporting thing feels. Robo Recall is especially what I expected VR to be like when I was a kid.

>>386634386
>I dont even have a facebook account,

Then congratulations, you have a facebook account with all of your browsing telemetry just waiting for you to formally put a name on it.

>>386637305
Well since you already got Doom 3 BFG, you already got the most PTSD-inducing game. I still haven't finished it.
The Bellows also is a free, short and spooky experience with some jump scares.
You should also try the Organ Quarter demo, feels like some old horror game in VR.
I haven't played them yet, but there are VR ports of the Serious Sam games that have free movement, guess you can't go more high-action than that..

Yo Robo Recall was the first game I tried.(I bought first day of the 399 sale) As soon as I teleported up on top a truck and started shooting down on robots, I knew I was going to love VR. What a fucking thrill.
To anybody else that has a rift, I can recommend Wilson's Heart if you want thriller/horror. But holy goddamn mother Theresa, horror in vr is no joke. Horror in every other medium doesn't faze me but this turns me into baby crying for mama.

>>386637560

I believe there's a title intended for VR, but it didn't look that great. Didn't know there were ports for the other games, though.

I'd really like to try GTA V in VR, but I don't have a copy of it. I bet the driving and motorcycle riding is fantastic.

VR fapping is always a bunch of work.
With HS, you install the game, install the english patch, install the VR patch, and drag and drop whatever mods you want for character creation.
Hongfire has a pretty active community when it comes to mods.
If you want total ease of use and no effort, you use waifu sex simulator and its preset scenes, just keep in mind that the quality of animation and models isn't going to be up to par with with 3DCM or HS.

Two controllers, and a wireless dongle. Makes me glad I pulled the trigger early in the sale.

>>386637143
You can do Honey Select with a minimal amount of work:
>download https://sukebei.nyaa.si/view/2313251
>get uncensor patch
>get english patch
>get IPA mod and run its exe once
>get ggmod
>get wideslider and run its exe once
>get VR mod (the native VR is shit, VR mod is 1000x better) and run the game from its exe when you want vr
>download character cards from roy12
That's all the vital stuff. Everything else is either grafix enhancements like sweetfx, or hair and clothing, which roy12 includes with his cards unlike everyone else. Getting cards from other people is going to be hit or miss because they'll have their own personal assortment of mods used, and even if you download every mod in existence, there will be conflicts and not every card will work. Many of them don't live up to the card image on top of that.

I love my Rift and am glad a friend bought his and I decided to get one too.

>Subnautica
I was disappointed with this one. I'd been waiting to play it for weeks, and then I finally get my headset and the game stutters like crazy, and there's no advanced options to mess with settings, just blanket settings like high or low. They're supposed to be doing a lot of performance fixes in the next few months, though so I guess I'll have to wait until october to play it.

My #1 use for my headset has been to use my computer without getting out of bed using Virtual Desktop, but reading regular sized text is next to impossible so I have to use the magnifier tool windows has meant for blind people

Last I heard, the 2 GTA V Vr mods are in a really basic state, and no longer in development. Not worth getting the game for VR.
Doom 3 BFG definitely is worth it for VR alone, I still got an early version of the VR mod installed and haven't bothered updating it since it was already good enough for me.

>>386638575
/v/ is full of people who haven't tried VR (or barely tried some shit demo/experience), then proceed to say it's shit.

VR is intended for many different audiences. The field of games is so diverse to accommodate the many different audiences. The people who are waiting on a next gen HMD are the same people who are always going to wait on a next gen HMD. They are not the audience, but they are many of the people who inhabit /v/.

There's also the people who wanted to jump on it when it was expected to be $300-400. That sweet spot has been hit and surpassed considering the addition of the controllers and bunch of games in the summer bundle. I'm a little sour that I'm not getting all the stuff everyone else is and had to pay more since I got the HMD alone beforehand.

>>386638881
(Not the person you're speaking to, but:)

The vive came with controllers for 8 months or so before the rift. That made every article and individual person more interested in it as a result. It has better tracking too.

Yes I know about revive, it's stupid as fuck that you gotta go through these janky-ass measures. What the fuck does anyone need two different vr headsets for? They work almost exactly the same. One can do what the other can plus extra shit, why the fuck tie exclusives to the worse one.

I'm kinda annoyed that HS doesn't have the interactions SBPR did. Somehow SBPR plays ten times worse on my new pc now than it did on my shitty 8 year old pc last year.

>>386639346
Because most people don't give a fuck about story when they're fapping, or want to apply their own headcanon, which they wouldn't be able to do if an actual canon was forced on them.

No, it shows a [VR] tag next to your name in their friends list, but steam doesn't show people what programs you're running unless you've manually added it to your steam games list and ran it through steam.

Both the Rift and Vive software make you define your play area by walking around the border of it, then they project a virtual grid if one of your hands or your head get too close to it to let you know you're close.

Out of everyone who's tried my Rift out, the only person who still hit anything despite the grid was my friend's 6 year old autistic kid.

Chances are that if a VR game is made so that it makes people sick easily you're going to be affected as well.

>>386642437
Glad I'm not one of them then. I get car sick but feel perfectly fine in VR.

>>386635239
Rift was originally just head tracking + 3d monitor so you could play your flight sims and shit like you're actually in them -- the "headset + controller setup" you mention.

Then a competitor showed up and made roomscale a thing. Turns out that making the player stand up and use a couple wiimotes really amplifies the "feels like you're really there" effect

>>386642437
False.

Maybe you should follow VR more closely.

>>386643675

You'll probably be fully naked since sweat/fogging is an issue in the headsets after extended playtimes.

>>386646027
I don't sweat when playing because I sit most of the time. Very few games actually require or are better by standing and moving.

>>386634127

>>386646114
>Their tech is based off lighthouse.
Based off how? It doesn't work the way lighthouse does. It works the same way PSVR does.

Perhaps it's just your preference to play sitting games. It's understandable since most of the multiplayer games are full of Bob Munden's instinct aiming headshots in the blink of an eye.

First off before we all start bandwagoning our preference companies like this is some dumb console wars bullshit you have to understand that all three were working together. Valve invited Sony as well as Oculus to their think tank where they were given lighthouse prototypes. This is common knowledge and is a rather interesting story if you can be assed to do a Google search.

Now to answer your question Alan Yates said so. Now if it's true or not it's hard to tell since only a handful of humans actually understand how to create/replicate this tech.

>>386638881
this reminds me, is there a work around for navigating mobile vr porn that doesn't cost 80cad for the google carboard? also any kind of mobile vr client that can be useful? cause getting all lubed up and swiping my phone then loading it into the headset is shit. i don't wanna gunk my glorious 2k screen whores up. dem tiddays need tobe sharp

Ctrl+mousewheelup until your browser is set to 170% zoom, that's about how big the text has to be on your screen in order to be completely legible on a virtual monitor, unless you make the monitor so big that you can only see half of it at once.

>>386646783
Hopefully Subnautica will improve now that they're took on 2 more people and are FINALLY fixing the fucking performance issues.

>>386646783
>Hope you're running 2 GTX 1080 Tis SLI to get that shit to a stable FPS
There's no such thing as a stable FPS in Subnautica no matter what system you're running it on.

>>386646880
I'm not saying anything about my preferences, I'm just saying that Lighthouse is pretty unique. It has the stationary things project points of light and then has the headset pick up their locations. Rift and PSVR have the stationary components pick up points of light located on the headset, which is how headtracking has been done for fucking years.

To say they took the idea from lighthouse when trackir and opentrack have been a thing for ages seems pretty misinformed to me, but most posts on /v/ that claim to be "common knowledge" are usually pretty misinformed.

>Now if it's true or not it's hard to tell since only a handful of humans actually understand how to create/replicate this tech
I literally set up my own non-VR headtracking last year by taking the LEDs from a Wii sensor bar, connecting them to a battery and putting them on my headphones, then taking a PS3 Eye with the inside part of a floppy disc over the lens as an infrafred filter to track the LED's position. I guess I'm one of those handful of humans.

They took the tech, learned everything they could about it then split and stopped taking valve's calls in relation to what was originally supposed to be the holy trinity of VR development.

That is the common knowledge I was referring to which is why I'm giving Yates the benefit of the doubt in relation to his claims.

Best VR games I've played so far are dumb, short games you can play in bursts like this one, at least now in summer if you don't have AC.
Mind that games where the camera move without your "direct" head/body input, like those "traditional" FPS mods, might cause motion/VR sickness, even vehicle driven like ED do when you're flying close to the ground or driving the SRV around. At least for a while until you get used to, brains are weird.

>>386666709
I actually have an Oculus Rift + Touch and recently got a chance to work with an HTC Vive very closely. I set up and allowed teenagers to demo one at a community center. Honestly the Oculus is better. In terms of overall weight and feel, the Oculus sits better on your face. The foam breathes easier than what's on the Vive as well. The ONLY thing I liked about the Vive HMD was how I didn't need to have my contact lenses in to clearly see. I need to wear contacts when using the Oculus.

In terms of "better tracking", I think that is just a falsehood. They both have the same exact tracking accuracy. The only real benefit the Vive has over the Oculus for tracking is the sensors don't need to be plugged into your computer. BUT they still need to be plugged into the wall, so either way you have cords running places you probably don't want them.

The touch controllers on the Vive are awful. They're big, they're uncomfortable to hold for long periods of time, and they for some reason designed them so they can go in either hand meaning you don't know which controller is L or R until you put the straps on, put the headset on, and then look at your hands in the game. If you mixed them up, switch places. Or label them.

The touch controllers have a menu key on them that I saw tons of people push on accident in the middle of a game, pausing the action and making them go "What happened!?" It's a very easy button to push on accident, and it happened at least once with every kid that demoed the unit.

The Oculus controllers feel much nicer to use. The triggers are soft and easy to pull, the buttons are placed in locations that make sense. There's no "accidentally" pressing a button that takes you out of the game, you have to very deliberately go out of your way to press any of those menu buttons. They also only go on your hands one way, so there's no confusion in mixing them up.

For the Vive being "the" room-scale HMD I was very underwhelmed.

>>386667589
>They know that any forced membership would backfire on them in a big way.

Just like they knew making a closed platform would too yet it doesn't matter in the long run. People will bitch and then nothing will happen. The truth is the masses don't care and Facebook knows this. They're just waiting for the right moment. Acting like this isn't inevitable is just naive. Facebook didn't pay 2 billion dollars for a VR company just for video games.

>>386667350

Are you near or far sighted anon? I am slightly near sighted myself. 1.75 one eye 2 in the other. I have never tried my vive without contacts or glasses honestly...

>The foam breathes easier than what's on the Vive as well.

There's no way that's true unless maybe you got the new foam. I have both and the Rift foam is way worse than the Vive and the shitty thing is you can't just replace it with velcro-able foam, you have to buy the whole part.

>They both have the same exact tracking accuracy.

In a small space maybe. For fast motions the Vive is still more accurate. There's comparisons for games like Climbey that show this.

You're right about the controllers for the most part but Valve is coming out with the Knuckles soon anyway. The wands are still better for emulating objects. Also I hate the triggers on the Rift, it's just preference I guess.

Tailored games for hardware is a tad different to forcing your customers to sign onto a social media platform that insists on real names and letting anybody peek in on your private life.

It was all POV.
I meant it in sort of a good way actually, it really feels like you have someone really near so it clicks your brain in a weird way when the girl moves her head near yours, starts riding you, etc.
The whole "fapping away without knowing anything about your real surroundings" only adds to that feeling of awkwardness.
I don't know, it was an interesting experience, but I think I'll stick with the regular way for a while.
I only tried a few 180/360 videos off tpb, might still look forward to new stuff coming up.

I've had a Rift since January, and it breathes much better than what the Vive felt like. I personally couldn't stand wearing the Vive for more than 10 or 15 minutes when I was working on setting it up. It felt more like the DK2 felt, honestly.

The thing is, they both have the same exact tracking limitations. When I first heard about the Vive using lighthouse I was thinking that'd be something that could convert an entire living room into a room-scale experience. However you only get about a 5x5 meter area of space, which is literally the same exact thing as what you can get with the Oculus. That's what I get with mine in my room right now, using only two sensors. If you want better accuracy for when you are not facing them then get a 3rd sensor and put it behind the area. There you have it, Vive-like tracking on a much cheaper and better platform.

>>386668652
Care to elaborate, mr. office white collar man?

>>386666666

>>386667873
You do realize they basically both launched at the same pricepoint right? Oculus actually cost more when the Touch controllers first came out. HTC just isn't lowering their price since they can't make up the costs via software like Valve and Ouculus can. HTC is the only one "fucking up" here. Valve will partner with another manufacturer and they honestly don't need to care since Rift owners still use Steam too.

I feel like you have to be a shill because that's a bunch of bull. I have a 4x3 meter space and the Rift sensors don't track it fully like the Lighthouse basestations do. Even Oculus fanboys on /r/Oculus don't make claims like 5x5m even with using 4 sensors.

>>386669209
Yeah you're right, I've only been using this system for the last 7 months and don't know anything.

>I can't read aisle postings in stores until I'm like right in the aisle.
Huh, going to give it a go tonight. Will be nice to just pop off my glasses and throw the headset on for a change.

As for comparisons. I've owned a rift, psvr, and vive. I've since sold the rift and psvr. Kept the vive because out of the lot it was the most comfortable for me and the best experience. I just recently (last week) purchased the deluxe audio/head strap thing as well and holy shit is it crazy good. That is the way the vive should have shipped, sad that it costs you an extra 100 bucks to get those levels of comfy, but fuck i wouldn't use a vive without it now. I never got around to buying a 3rd sensor for my rift, it wouldn't have worked well. My room is too big and the computer running the equipment is in the room next to it. I would have had to run crazy wires to get a rift to go full room scale in this setup, where as the vive is just two simple light houses with power one in each corner. Just my experiences though.

Probably. Even Oculus doesn't recommend 2 since you get occlusion issues. They're obvious even when you have the sensors in a small space.

Check the most bottom stat requiring 360 tracking and the difference.

>>386669796
They do that already by OFFERING benefits by linking a facebook account. Key word meaning they're not forcing people to do it.

what in the absolute fuck are developers trying to accomplish with this "room scale" and "motion tracking" bullshit

you cant run across a fucking battlefield with room scaling when all you have is fucking 8x8 feet

why are they working so hard on this stupid gimmicky shit instead of focusing on what VR will excel at, which is games where you're seated in a fucking vehicle

that will revolutionize racing games, or any genre involving being in a cockpit and dogfighting, or anything like that

but instead they're focusing on all this dumb gimmicky bullshit LOL FULL VR BRO YOU LITERALLY WALK AROUND IN VR LOL NO MOTION SICKNESS OOPS I RAN INTO MY DESK AND KNOCKED OVER MY COMPTUER THERE GOES $1200

what the fuck are they doing, just give me a fucking regular controller, steering wheel, or joystick, and a VR mask, no other motion tracking shit

>>386669980
That's basically what I originally said. If they won't make it a requirement then they'll make it so you lose out on features. They're going to force your hand one way or another.

>In terms of "better tracking", I think that is just a falsehood.
So you're not sure? How can you make a judgement on that then? Or are you just making statements on your gut feeling?
The tracking of the rift is slightly above PSVR levels and a bitch to setup.
>BUT they still need to be plugged into the wall,
Yeah, god forbid electronics need power. That's a downside right there, the lighthouse boxes should run on love and energy out of nowhere. Couldn't you reach deeper in your ass to find a negative thing about the lighthouses?
>The touch controllers on the Vive are awful.
And the gesture recognition is awful on the Rift controllers. Below Leap Motion even, which is an accomplishment in itself. The fact that I have to strap a Leap Motion on the Rift to track hands at least halfway reliably makes the rift controllers a joke.
>The Oculus controllers feel much nicer to use. The triggers are soft and easy to pull, the buttons are placed in locations that make sense.
Translation: I like it better therefore it's objectively better.
>There's no "accidentally" pressing a button that takes you out of the game
Instead you "accidentally" do hand gestures all the time.

And while you're talking about menus, why is it that Occulus Home is such a clunky piece of shit to use?

HTC Vive vs Oculus rift, /v/ ?

>>386670406
No, I play racing sims with a steering wheel. But the actual touch controllers are awesome. I used an Oculus without them for months and bought them when they first came out and it completely changes the experience.

Yeah, after getting a Rift from the sale I was pretty disappointed with all the hype on the Touch controller gesturing. But maybe it's because I already played a bit with the Leap Motion. It just made me want the Knuckle controllers even more.

>>386670668

well thats one thing but the room scale shit seems totally fucking retarded to me

>dude we are like revolutionizing games you are literally in them now you can travel unlimited worlds

>oh except we built them all to fit inside your 5x5 foot VR area and you cant actually go anywhere or do anything beyond that without snapping from point to point in an extremely jarring and retarded as fuck way because the way it works means you cant move around more than a few fucking feet and everyone gets motion sickness like a fucking baby and cries if they try moving automatically with a joystick i guess

humanity is not ready, the technology is not ready

all the fucking 4k memeing for consoles for a TV that sits halfway across the fucking living room, yet people still think 1080p is acceptable when its glued to their fucking face, even though it causes a "screen door" effect

the entire video game industry is a joke

>>386670415
No, I'm "not sure", I am sure. I am sure that it is a falsehood. The tracking is far from a bitch to set up. You plug shit in. You install the program. You set up the boundaries. It's the exact same setup process as on the Vive. I just did this over the weekend. They are identical in setup.

Listen here dickweed, my point about needing to be plugged in was to point out that you're still going to end up with wires and shit running to places. You're still going to need extension cords, or even power strips going to wherever you decide to mount the sensors. At the very least with USB powered sensors like the Rift you can get some extenders and keep it all nice and tidy. Power cable management depends entirely on the layout of your room and where your outlets are.

I've never had any issues using the gesture recognition on the touch controllers. You stick your finger out, you're sticking your finger out. Maybe you keep having problems with it because you're using it wrong.

Yeah, buttons placed in sensible locations so as to not accidentally press them and triggers that are easier to access and use are definitely not a plus. You're right there friendo.

>>386670635
Superhot, Robo Recall, Rec Room, Echo Arena, Onward, etc

>>386670919
I agree, I think the push for room scale experiences is really silly. Being able to stand up and play something like Superhot is really cool but I can't imagine a full blown AAA game being developed around that concept.

>>386670762
>>386670415
This is a joke. Leap Motion has a tiny FOV and is very unreliable so you can never actually play any real games with it without losing tracking all the time. Touch, Knuckles, and even the Vive wands are much better, even if they don't track as many finger movements.

>>386635734
>now or never

They're emptying stock for a newer improved model which will likely be priced similarly to this sale price. Older fags are used to this cycle with all electronics. Until there's worthwhile software all over the place you might as well stick to something like gear vr until the technology isn't a twitchy buggy trickle of demo experiences with rehashed AAA games sprinkled in. If someone waited this long already they'd be much better off waiting a little longer

Your point is so pointless that I don't even know what to say.
Are you trying to say that you thought the lighthouses work without electricity?
>lighthouses use cables that's bad!
>but on the rift i can use cables, that's cool
In a previous post you said you can have a 5x5 setup. So what you're saying is you have 5 meter usb cables going through your entire room just to connect to your pc?

>>386670050
VR motion controls are the stuff we dreamed of back when Nintendo were hyping the wiimote. 1:1 tracking with your actual hands, so you can directly interact with things in the game instead of pressing a button.

The thing that's hard for most outsiders to understand is that it makes some very simple actions more involved. From swinging a melee weapon to aiming a gun and manually reloading it. So videos of games like Gorn and Onward look very slow and basic but to players in the game, it's fast and chaotic.

Also if you want cockpit sims, you may be interested in this.

The FoV is small but within that FoV it's pretty great. I was just disappointed with Touch since all the gestures feel very binary and you can never let go of your pinky and ring finger. I never got the feeling like my hands were actually in the world like the Leap Motion does.

>>386671061
Doom 3 BFG VR is AAA (more or less) and uses that setup, though they use the sticks for movement.
