Mind blowing, isn't it? :) What's really cool is every new thing you try in VR... helicopters, WWII, WWI, car racing... is each going to wow you all over again!
To echo the sentiments, flying without my ButtKicker now would be like flying without VR, or like watching TV without sound. It's the last step in turning a computer game into a visceral experience.
The tactile feedback in WWII planes is especially helpful when you're flying close to the envelope.
I just discovered that the Rift S doesn't work in the dark. That, along with the lack of audio isolation means I can no longer do VR sessions after the wife goes to bed. Bummer, but probably still worth the upgrade in visual clarity!
Nice, has this correction to mission 12 been added to the public build of DCS, or do I still need to download the updated mission from this thread?
EDIT: I downloaded the mission and finished the campaign. That music kicks serious ass!!!
You've got to be *fast*! I got shot up pretty bad too, they took out my pilot and I was forced to fly from the left seat. After that I kept my speed over 200 km/h and did not take any more hits.
Be warned, radio comms for AA refueling is currently not working (although I think it's fixed in the open beta build). You'll be able to complete the mission without refueling, though.
Seems like the Rift S is meant to attract new users, rather than to entice CV1 users to upgrade.
Still though, having less SDE alone might be reason enough for me to upgrade.
It is frustrating, I had been waiting a very long time too for MCG Pro to become available. Finally was able to snatch one up at aliexpress in December.
