Most of the Oculus demos/games from 6+ months ago no longer work due to how they api has changed. Programming is hard? With respect I think there is more to it than that. The reason most demos don't work is because of the way Unity works with the SDK (or the SDK works with Unity), it is totally irrelevant to this. Most demos just aren't worthwhile to update for their creators, but some do update and their demos continue to work. There are devs on Steam saying 'can't be arsed updating sorry, thanks for the cash.' - I'm talking about Unity because the vast majority of stuff out there is created in it. My credentials: I am currently co creating a VR game (I am not a coder, I am helping in other ways) and it's had to be updated many times to cater to the SDK, which it has been ad it continues to work fine. I think the sudden dropping of VR is much much more likely to be because of how ill the game makes you feel when you: Climb ladders Sit in a chair Get in a buggy Do anything My gut feeling is this bit them in the rear end as far as VR is concerned, it's a problem with the game design rather than the engine or SDK, I can still play Far Cry just fine in VR if I want, although it's been a while.

This is brilliant. I think next thing to do is to phone CIG directly, using a skype recorder, and troll the fuckers into refunding you. e: If it's illegal to record a call in your state, I can host the skype call and record it from the UK  e2: This offer is open to anyone seeking a refund. e3: If you feel uncomfortable talking to them, I will quite happily speak on your behalf. fuctifino fucked around with this message at 05:04 on Jan 3, 2016 |

Not if they keep those animations in, no, you can have a graphics card from 2020 that'll run the game easily but the moment you wipe your rear end / get in a chair / bob your head you'll feel ill, you can't bullshit that stuff away, it's real and it happens.

The animation where you get in your ship is needed as that is when your character becomes the ship, so they have to keep a few things like that. I tried my hand at a serious post, it didn't go well so I am going to agree with you from here on out because it's friendlier that way and I like the cut of your jib

Sorry I suck at serious posting so i ridiculous post instead. Having said that, shame on this thread for crushing the dreams of a poor hardworking boy like Chris. Don't you know about the power of intention? Watch "The Secret", Chris did, and now he has a ton of money. How can you weigh the value of mundane money against a dream?

I agree regarding the "immersive" animations, but that is trivial to work around with instant transitions, or electrodes attached to your brain. Chris will never get rid of those animations. He's made the word "immersion" one of his cult trigger words, and even gone as far as redefining exactly what "immersion" means so that his sect identifies the term with those unnecessary animations. The entire visual design of the game (at least in recent cuts) was not only not designed for VR - it was designed to simulate what a VR experience would be like using just a regular flat monitor. It was literally designed against VR. Thus, as others have mentioned, consider the head bob animations, the weird looking around crap when you're climbing into the ship, the bizarro-world animations when you get into and out of a bunk or cargo crawlspace, etc. Do you know how much of that would have to be ripped out of the game?

I suppose this is the benefit to Star Citizen being something for everyone. You can refocus on whatever you want whenever. Yesterday it was procedural generation and birds, today VR.

Given that supporting VR isn't all that hard makes this statement utterly ridiculous, unless you mean it in a "there will be no game, so of course it won't have VR." Seriously the headset devs are making it so any idiot coder that is capable of drooling on the keyboard can hack it in, it just might suck. Hell most engines are just having built-in support at this point.

Yup, my feeling is that in his quest for 'immersion' with all those 20 second long 'Hey it looks like you're climbing a ladder' animations he's made it impossible to use VR, which is the best way to be 'immersed' in any game. I legit love that h aha

^^^ Sure  I'm more than willing. Though I'm not blunt and rude... I'm painfully polite, calm yet forceful when on the phone, and people find it very hard to hang up on me.DarkSol posted:I may take you up on this. I only did the KS, but if ripping money out of their hands is the end result... I'd love to help. I've asked a couple of ex CIG employees for telephone numbers, as they seem to be lacking on the RSI website.... but I'm 100% willing and eager to do this. I think it will be a lot of fun, and it may also force them to refund those who need them. I used to do a lot of stuff helping ex Scientologists, directly phoning the orgs and internal offices... as well as trolling the gently caress out of them. I used to be good at it, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it
