Did anybody here try this? (Edit: I guess it isn't out yet) https://vrscout.com/news/amazon-jack-ryan-vr-park-comic-con/ It's weird that they used a rift for this, I didn't know it could link multiple cameras over a large area. Also they are using hand trackers, I wonder if those are using the camera tracking or something else. Edit: I think it isn't using the positional tracking from the headset, just the rotational tracking. Then it wouldn't need the Rift cameras, just those other trackers for the body, hands and feet. Pretty cool. jubjub64 fucked around with this message at 16:17 on Jul 20, 2018 |

Holy poo poo, people get nervous about ziplining in general and they want people to do it in VR. They must be super confident that their tracking solution is perfect, plus all the people there making sure no one dies. There's all kinds of hilarity that could come from this. From someone saying "it's just a video game" and then walking off a two story building. Or the thought of a super duper action dude doing action stuff and then stopping while a bunch of people strap him into the safety harness and directing him to the zipline.

Any thoughts on picking up an Acer WMR headset for $150? I traded my OG vive+DAS for a 2015 macbook pro, but I'm still getting that beatsaber and pavlov itch and was thinking this may be able to scratch it.

They have a 30 day no question asked return policy (in the store). The return is super straightforward you can usually get from door to door in 5 minutes. You can even return to a store something you bought online. I;ve had a feeling since they opened the MS store is a money burning advertising/goodwill campaign.

How much does the headset move around while it is on you're gaming and moving around?

It doesn't move around too much. If you get sweaty and youre moving around a lot it will start to slide around a bit, you can tell when it gets out of focus. but its a one-hand tightening thing so you can really cinch it down even when youre in the middle of something. get a good fit at the start (put the eyepiece part on, click the headband down over your head, make sure the back is below the bump at the back of your skull, tighten) and youll be good for a while

For the first 1/2 second or so it will continue moving on the previous track with surprising accuracy, and then it will go to 3dof in the spot it's in until it starts to track again. For me the bigger issue with WMR tracking was that you would sometimes lose tracking when you get a controller very close to your face. Also, it doesn't track above your head.

Also, at least with my Lenovo Explorer, when it lost tracking of a controller, it would sometimes takes several seconds to reestablish tracking, even if you brought the controller back in into view. Honestly, if the Lenovo was better about reestablishing tracking, I probably wouldn't have replaced it with the Rift.

As someone who doesn't care much for guns, how much of an actual "game" is there in H3VR? I love how much attention to detail the dev has and how often he puts out consistent content, but it always just looks like Real Life Gun Simulator.

It’s different scenes and modes that’ll last you a good while, he’s adding a new mode soon that should be super rad. I think most people are playing a lot of Take & Hold at this point, but the Westworld parody and the Meatgrinder are also good fun. I like sniping in the Snowglobe map the most, personally.

I don't care much for guns either but I bought it because people said there was a lot of fun to be had. I've had the game for many months and only played about an hour of it. There is fun to be had if you care about guns and want to put in the effort to make your own fun using those guns.

I bought it, discovered this, refunded it, then at the urging of goons bought it again and really tried to give it a chance. It was fun for a while but then I ran out of stuff to do that I found interesting (tacking guns to other guns and making big super guns to shoot at anthropomorphized sausages isn’t my cup of tea)

74 hours played in H3VR. I also initially bought it, tried it for an hour and refunded it (Though it was because I had two sensors and he hadn't implemented snap turn, etc). I like guns in the same way I like cars: I have a very superficial understanding of how they work but think they're cool and love learning about obscure ones. H3VR has so many weird and wonderful guns that you're bound to find something cool even if your interest is limited. There's no in-depth story mode if that's your jam but I think the amount of variety in things to do (Several shooting ranges, a roguelite take and hold that they're adding a bunch more content to soon, a horror survival game, a Climbey-style gymnasium, a Wild West adventure with actual horseshoe games and they're currently revamping their zombie survival mode) really gives this game a lot of legs. It just beautifully handles VR's selling point of giving you a load of tactile objects to fiddle around with and a bunch of detail you can really appreciate when you have the weapons there in your hands. The weapons feel great to fire, sound design is top notch and there's a quirky sense of humour running through it all that takes a lot of the dryness out of what is inarguably a hard sell on paper. The controls will take a while to get used to and if you dislike or are uninterested in actual real-world guns, or you're not able to make your own fun easily, you should probably skip it (And buy Serious Sam 2 if you haven't). For my money it's easily my favourite VR game because it's either a super relaxing plinking experience where you can just pop soda cans, go skeet shooting or work on your grouping, or it's an exciting hallway shooter with guns that have a lot of personality and a ton of customisation. Anton is an extremely active dev and practically every week gives the players a bunch of new goodies to toy around with and I think it's commendable that he's made a VR shooter that hasn't had to be unnecessarily violent to be fun. If it sounds like a good time to you, I think it's an absolute much-purchase. You can also murder sausage men with a rake so that's pretty badass For what it's worth, I have a friend who picked it up but didn't play too much of it when he got it. As soon as he learned about Take and Hold instead of it just being a bunch of different galleries he wound up coming around on the game hard. He plays it pretty much every week now. Just as a point of interest my top 3 VR games on STEAM are: 1) H3VR, 74 hours 2) Elite: Dangerous, 40 hours 3) Tabletop Simulator, 34 hours Songbearer fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Jul 21, 2018 |
