I came from G2 and got a Quest 3. It's a good VR headset overall, but I am still struggling with DCS. It has almost the same resolution on paper, but when I adjust the Quest 3 on PD 1,0 native resolution it looks like the G2 on PD 0,5. And the overall picture quality and colors are not as good as the G2 (in the sweet spot). The FOV is almost the same. Big advantage is the huge (or not existing) sweet spot of the Quest 3. Half Life Alyx via Steam VR looks much better. Maybe I should play DCS via Steam too.

Similar problem here. My Q3 has a gray, transsparent, horizontal bar in DCS. It appears on the upper half of my screen and is approx. 1/4 of the view. It occurs after playing for a while. There are similar problems described on the web. But no universal solution.

At the moment I have the problem, that there is a gray, transparent horizontal bar in the upper part of my view in a night mission in DCS.... really annoying...

Yeah, I solved the problem with a simple restart of the headset.

As suggested by any review on the web, I orderred my Q3 together with a better headstrap + battery pack + link cable. Did not use the original. But even with the good strap, the G2 comfort was a bit better. And yes, the sound of G2 was better too. Mainly because the location of the speaker. This morning the USB Link connection is no longer working... sucks... "Help" Button shows...

I decided to get a Q3 and tried a few missions today. For DCS I would not say that Q3 is better or worse the G2. It is quite a different experience. While the G2 has the better picture quality overall and clarity in the small sweetspot; the Q3 has the often mentioned edge-to-edge clarity, but with lower picture quality. And this edge-to-edge clarity makes the game more immersive and real for me, because I can move and look around much more natural. But is it worth the upgrade for DCS only? My opinion is: no. Keep Win10 and run your G2 for another few years. However, I will keep it anyway. So far I did not play any other VR games, because I was always struggling with the wire. And the little sweet spot of G2 was a pain too. This is why I never finished Half Life: Alyx. Now with the wireless solution it's quite fun. I tried only the Batman-Game, but this has similar movement as HL. Tomorrow I'll try the WLAN streaming option and hope I can also play wireless HL: Alyx.

Is the sound of the Quest 3 acceptable, compared to G2? Do you use additional earphones with the Quest 3? And, what is the best mouse-alternative when using the Q3?

I am just using a second mouse for the cockpit with minimum sensitivity adjustment. It's a cheap wired mouse from HP with DPI setting switch on the mouse.

Vote +1 for new headset 4080 to 4090 are a few FPS, but still on the old G2 VR headset.

I was just reading several "Q3 vs. Crystal Light" experiences on Reddit etc. I am wondering how many DCS and sim-players previously using the Reverb G2 are disappointed of their new Q3 and Crystal Light.

Ich hatte sowas mal, als ich beim INS Alignment irgendwas verbockt hatte...

My mouse cursor is automatically centered to the middle of my view, after it disappeared when not used for a few seconds. And I am using it at the very lowest sensitivity. Once I touch it, the cursor is immediately there, in the middle of my screen. And as I am using G2 with tiny sweetspot, my cursor is used only in the middle of my view anyway.

Are there performance differences between the G2 and the Quest 3 in DCS? They have almost the same resolution, but use different software. I have an AMD RyzonAMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6x 4.6GHz + 4070ti + 32 GB RAM Is there any obligatory accessory I need to buy with the Q3 for DCS?

Hey, Love DCS VR, but I hate the tiny sweetspot of the G2. Furthermore I would like to replace mouse-control by any pointer system or handtracking. And G2 will not be usable in future to missing WMR support? Should I go with the Quest 3 with handtracking now - is it a great upgrade or should I wait for next generation of headsets with eye tracking? Thanks 4 your thoughts
