>he ordered late

>falling the VR meme

I don't care. I already have mine.

But maybe I'll put it on ebay and sell it for profit.

You don't even know

Which one's better?

aren't b&m stores selling these?

I heard our local GameStop had at least one.

Not him, but Vive without a doubt.

After using the Vive with 1:1 motion controls and room scale, the Rift just seems like a kids toy.

>Having opinions on something you've never used

Stay classy.

Vive because uploadvr.com/oculus-room-scale-opinion/

Vive without a doubt.
Tbh the only reason I have the rift is to flip it for $500.
Trust me VR is no meme either, I dropped acid and played my vive and my brain almost melted.

>meme
>cucked

you didn't even say jew goyim pleb or nigger

are you even Sup Forums right now? go back to tumbblit

>opting-in for first-gen VR

>i used le drugs and this average activity became interesting xD
Fuck off, retard. It's even more of a meme if you have to alter your perception to make it worthwhile.

That's not what he's saying. Being able to physically turn around within a virtual environment is far more immersive than only being able to look over your shoulder. Anything you do in room-scale experiences are simply amplified by that sense of presence.

You got all that from, "I dropped acid and played my vive and my brain almost melted"?

Yup. The differences between seated, standing and room-scale experiences are massive; you really just have to try it yourself to get what we mean: "average activities" have entirely different connotations when you've tricked yourself into accepting the virtual as real even for the briefest of moments.

>first gen

To clarify: you don't need acid to understand the magnitude of virtual reality; that shit came and went but I digress en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberdelic

Oculus for the extra xbox controller.

nah.

Where are the must have games or content? Resolution is too pixelated to be enjoyable. Inb4 muh immersion. Been playing 3d games on gearVR and its neat, but way too pixelated. And I believe the samsung s7 has better ppi than Vive or Rift.

>And I believe the samsung s7 has better ppi than Vive or Rift.
you believe wrong.

>rift CV1 461 ppi
>s7 576 ppi
Both are using pentile oled from samsung too. So those shared subpixels are especially noticeable sometimes.

Somebody will develop a Cumberdick simulator and we'll never hear another word from tumblr again.

do not ignore the masked areas, much of the gear VR screen space is lost in the corners and across the nose.

PPI is not the only factor relevant to resolution, it also depends on magnification of the lens. Zooming in to a small, high PPI screen (or portion of one, in gear VR's case) means the effective resolution at your eye is lower.

Shh, most people here are underage and do not know that VR has been around for YEARS.

I just got mine today but haven't set it up yet. Why am I on Sup Forums you all are faggots.

Doesn't really matter because the Gear VR's lenses still exaggerate the screen door effect more than the Vive and the Rift

inb4 virtual cucking porn

>He didn't order a vive and get the free HTC 10

>This meme again

Thats a good thing

Let the idort first adopters iron out the bugs then ill go get a 4k 120hz version in 2018

Thanks Vivefags for the betatesting ;)

thank you for you sacrifice based early adopters

>Thanks Vivefags for the betatesting
You're welcome, as I'm enjoying the fuck out of it.

Can u run any occulus or non VR native titles via 3rdparty trickery or is it shit?

How is the porn.

Yes: github.com/LibreVR/Revive
Not him, but most of the porn being made for virtual reality right now happen to be 360° video. Most of the films are alright but without proper headtracking it's hard to get a grip on things. You're limited to two types of scenes: seated and standing; where the actor essentially embodies what would be your avatar whilst wearing something like pic related. Some companies have opted to doing "normal" porn surrounding a stationary 360° capture rig because the less head bobbing there is, the easier it'll be for the videos to be consumed. These are in much easier to watch and fap to as a result. John Carmack was actually pretty pissed at the sheer number of shitty 360° videos people were making for Gear VR last year because the content-creators didn't take into account the users' comfort.

I'd wait for Photogrammatry Porn to become more a thing, where scenes are scanned and reconstructed digitally in real time like the one's Tori Black has been doing: vice.com/read/behind-the-scenes-of-tori-blacks-virtual-reality-porn-debut

That shit's far more compelling.

coolbeans

Welp if these ever drop down to $500 ill get one

Vive. Oculus is 10x more comfy and they have very nice lenses but room scale + hands can't be beat.

Pretty good

SteamVR has OpenVR (which isn't actually open but allows third parties to use the Vive's SDK without Steam integration); Revive works through OpenVR just so yknow. SteamVR's Chaperone system is god-tier.

Yep, the S7 has a newer panel with higher contrast and peak brightness, too.

Not to mention completely wireless with 5-6 hours of VR. If only it had roomscale and motion controllers, I wouldn't even buy a Vive.

>carmack mad about shaky porns

>falling for the airplane meme
That's what you would have said in 1911

>not wanting to puke whilst watching shaky porns
is this such a novel idea? I mean if that's your fetish then by all means do as you will.

I have been wanting to do this. How is it? Must be fucking amazing.

>get a shitty VR headset instead of a good one
>hurr, VR is shit
Yeah, no, fuck off.

we did it all for the glory of love

>First gen tech

It's going to plummet in price by next year. The Game base is currently very small. Unless you're a developer you shouldn't be looking at VR headsets right now. ( If you are a developer looking to develop for VR you're late to the party)

Typical samsung shitter

I got mine last week.
Honestly, wait for next gen, I'm quite disappointed in it.

Bull-fucking-shit

You knew your post wouldn't get many replies so you added that acid story into it, didn't you.

>first gen tech
Look at this literal newfag.

I already bought one, I hope it plummets in price so it can get a larger user base.

Smart phone VR is the most likely candidate to achieve mainstream adoption first. PSVR will budge the number up by a fair amount as well.

Too bad vive is the only solution currently that does roomscale despite its flaws.

I reckon NLOS tracking system similar to the Stem controllers would've been heaps better than lighthouse since you don't have to worry about occlusion and can track your legs and arms for better inverse kinematics.

VR porn is the best thing that happened in a long time

what do you watch? where are you getting it from?

There is a huge thread on /t/ with hundreds of links/torrents for Occulus/Gear VR/ Vive. I'm using a Gear VR and I'll never watch porn the old way again

cheers, I need to try some of the rendered roomscale stuff sometime
