so how many of you guys own a vive?
any games worth picking up on it?
i'm looking at all those basics like Tilt Brush, Arizona Sunshine and all that other shit but is there anything from indie devs any of you have tried out and genuinely enjoyed?
so far i've used the demo with tilt brush, space pirate trainer, and this weird underwater setting
i'm probably going to buy one in the coming months when my tax return comes in.
Other urls found in this thread:
i own one but really need to move my stuff around to use it
the lab
onward should be pretty nifty too
Accounting is a neat thing for being free. Same goes for RecRoom.
Most the motion control titles I have are Oculus. I know there's Revive but I'm not sure how it handles hand gestures, which are needed in some games.
dear fucking god you actually brought a rift?
yes its called a rift the company name was oculus before jewbook buyout
Sairento is good for ninja action, knockout league if you like punch out, Raw Data, there are 2 Serious Sam games out for it, elite dangerous Vanishing Realms, Waltz of the wizard etc
Memes aside, it actually pretty decent.
>EVA vr game never ever
look nobody questions the hardware is decent for its price however you are actually giving money to a social media company who brought a tech company for insane reasons
please dont do this to your self
No, I gave my money to Oculus. Different company.
they are a subsidiary of jewbook
dont you remember the massive shitstorm a few years back?
The vive is a better investment for a few reasons, one, it's more consumer friendly where you swap out different parts rather than having to fully upgrade.
2 the technology in the vive is better, there is no point in not waiting a few more weeks to get the thing that is better.
And 3 Oculus/facebook is getting their pants sued off right now, we don't know what damage it'll do to the brand, could be extensive could be nothing.
Onward is also a good game
Facebook funded Oculus and has kept out of their way for a majority of things. That 'shitstorm' was just a bunch of paranoid meme shit.
And by your logic, you may as well disconnect from everything and live off grid, because you can't shop anywhere without shady companies taking a piece.
I would definitely say the Vive is better for large roomscale stuff. Problem is they hold that as a standard for all games, even though there's a standing mode in steamVR. Oculus seemed more flexible with roomspace and seated games, which suited my home.
Also the Touch controllers look a lot better than Vive's big clubs. Valve would seem to agree because they're making their own.
>Also the Touch controllers look a lot better than Vive's big clubs. Valve would seem to agree because they're making their own.
No they aren't, they're making a device that turns anything into a controller, I haven't seen anything with the touch, but the vive controllers while ugly, make sense and are basically as good as you can get.
Vive works for standing, sitting, and roomscale, I have no idea what the hell you're talking about, I've done all three, and I can say that with vive being open source, it's a lot easier for people to work with them.
You clearly seem to be some sort of shill.
ahem
you are wrong, they arent just "funded", they are outright owned
en.wikipedia.org
the point is and always have been dont give zuckerberg money or information, EVER
on top of that, way to go overboard with assumptions, im just pointing out facts which hopefully lead to people making better informed decisions
and just to add insult to injury they are also behind the "gear VR" bullshit along with samsung
Hot Dogs, Horseshoes, and Hand Grenades is pretty fun and brings out your inner /k/.
I love Meat Grinder mode
Wasn't shown at CES, or at least I didn't see it.
Regardless those function nothing like the touch.
>the point is and always have been dont give zuckerberg money or information, EVER
He's the least of your worries if you're that sensitive about your information.
Everything from your ISP to your plugins know what degeneracy you fap to and what shit you pirated. Thing is, you're one in millions doing the same thing, so nobody gives a shit.
onward is worth the hardware alone. you wont want to ever go back to a regular fps. and look into the pros and cons of vive vs rift. Ive used both extensively and would always pick the rift+touch but recommend the vive more often depending on many factors
>implying I'm not using duck duck go
>implying google is my first choice of search engine
look im not here to do a major take on privacy issues however my point still stands
this is getting on a major sidetrack and its definitely time to stop
get out of my fucking head
My friend lent me his Vive for a couple weeks. Any good cheap/free things I should play while I have the chance?
I've been playing hotdogs horseshoes and Handgrenades because he steam shared it with me, and I bought Climbey for myself, and Mass Exodus for my fiancé and me to play.
I've played The Lab. What else is a must-play? I'm obviously not gonna stop $40 on a game that I only get to play for a week or two though.
Demos are cool too.
>sees .jpg for the first time
> has fully informed opinion
if you dont know whats in the pipeline dont argue. htc's announcement of those prototype controllers was in direct response to the touch launch. they also are copying the rift harness with built in headphones. both devices have plenty of merits. if your gonna defend your purchase stick to the larger roomscale tracking
>Regardless those function nothing like the touch.
How so? It has triggers and thumb buttons/pad. It could easily use touch sensitivity to do finger gestures like the Oculus controllers.
rec room is great multiplayer hangout with paintball and other things
gorn is a simple gladiator game
budget cuts demo is amazing must play
lazerbait is a 3d version of galcon
google earth vr is nifty
all free
Thanks
so how does everyone else get room for the room scale stuff? i had to use a shared space but the spectators loved to try it too
oh great more stuff i should play now
Moved my couch and coffee table
Helps that I don't have a wall between my living room and kitchen
Everyone with a Vive/Rift should get into Onward
Best online shootin experience out right now
Didn't see anybody mention Holoball in the thread, it's damn fun but make sure you have the space for it else you WILL hit walls.
I move my mattress and play on the base of my futon personally
>w-we have a bigger screen now, its not 640x480
The pixel density is even worse, on both because samjewng pentile displays
>w-we have controllers now
>now
People use wii motes since they exist
>w-we have better response times now
What the fuck is trackIR?
>w-we have a... library of games
Best games are actually ported ones with mods or other shit, the reason to have a HMD in the 1st place, and not just teleport to move or get stuck waving your hands
>motion sickness
get gud or kill your genes because of a shit internal ear.
I hate teleporting. I wish they would just make it an option for the weak-stomached faggots instead of building entire games around this crap.
Played the shit out of Climbey and Wildlands with no motion sickness whatsoever.
>funton
ching chong ding dong?
tell us about holoball
This. People need to try and get used to it.
>Try that bar fight game
>Walk/run with touch pad
>Feel myself wobble about as I move and feel a bit whoa shit I'm gonna fall
>Take some time to move about
>Get used to it, stop wobbling and feel fine
Games like Climby gave me no problems but I think it's to do with moving your arms to walk.
Nope.
Even the shittiest console ever, the Switch has more value than this piece of crap.
How closed minded.
>Thinks vr motion controls are the same as wiimote.
>Thinks trackIR is the same as a headtracking HMD
>Thinks games have to be exclusive to VR to count as good titles.
