I hear ya. Trouble is , once you've tried VR flying it's hard to go back ( although it is sometimes nice to see a realistic monitor cockpit instead of sitting inside what looks like a cardboard pop-up cockpit ) . For me, it doesn't seem sensible spending £1000+ on a headset when I've still got an RTX2080 feeding it.

Playing DCS wirelessly ? (thought it required SteamVR and USB link cable - or have times moved on ?)

Flying on a G1 Reverb Pro. Cable connector recent issues and the impending demise of WMR making me think its time to start thinking about what comes next, but there doesn't seem to be an obvious sub-£600 answer. The only real contenders seem to be PSVR2 or Quest 3. Anybody know of anything on the drawing board with OLED screens, pancake lenses and a wired Displayport connection ?

What missions do I want ? Easy - all the best bits from the Ed Macy books "Apache" and "Hellfire" !

Let's see, there's....ummm.... errr..... writing about games...... and ...... give me a minute.....umm....errr.... coding more games.....?

Will we get new loadouts for the Apache ? eg Royal Marines strapped to the wings....

I confidently predict it will be released on April 1st before mid-day..... followed by 'gotcha' at 12:01....

Oh yes, some nice big thunderstorms. And throw in a sharknado if you must

Hurry up kids and win the lottery - Daddy needs a new throttle

You're ignoring the logarithmic nature of the gaps. 2 > 4 > 8 ?? Sometime in October / November ...... So we've had people using optimism and maths to suggest release dates. Anyone want to try astrology next to predict the release date ?

Now, now.... they're "suspected truck parks" ......

You mean the F-4 module is so realistic it's got a "Hong Kong R&R" mission ?

A wokka ? Time to re-read "Sweating the Metal" to set the mood.....

This does all rather highlight a Gulf War sized gap in the DCS World map coverage......

I predict April 1st announcement for early access .... with a "gotcha" message after 12:00

was the year actually specified ?

Is that when it becomes the 17th in Austalia, or do we have to wait until its the 17th in Las Vegas ?

waiting to find a sub-£500 card that can handle Reverb VR city low-level without stutter.....

Well aware of the difference - what I should have said is "something that looks as clear and readable as looking at a desktop 4K monitor". On a good day with the headset aligned just right, a tiny tiny spot of the Reverb is almost 75% good enough. I want the whole display good enough across its entire width... preferably without remortgaging the house But I know that I am in for a long wait.... and that the computing horsepower to drive such a display simply does not exist a sub-£3000 desktop system today, much less a 4 year old rig.....

Varjo Aero specs sound good, but a bit too pricey to justify right now. Especially after you factor in 2 lighthouses... Pimax vs G2.... still reading up on them. Neither of them sound like they offer a "just like being in front of a 4K monitor" viewing experience just yet, which is the next level of revolutionary jump I'm looking for from a VR headset rather than modest incremental improvements. For under a grand

Currently have a Reverb G1. Is there anything available today / coming next year that has * a significantly clearer picture ? Today, if I need to read the map MFD, I find myself having to zoom in. On a monitor, I dont. * manually adjustable IPD ? and a bigger sweet spot ? Today I find myself having to push the bottom of the headset slightly closer to my face to bring what I'm looking at into sharp focus. Thought about a Reverb G2, but with those going at nearly £700 over here, and from what I've seen/read online - didnt think it offered enough of an improvement over a G1 to make it a noticeably better upgrade.

The AH-64 module is screaming out for Camp Bastion, Bagram, Helmand province, Sangin, Now Zad, Lashkar Gah, the Hindu Kush.....

Jugroom Fort, but only if we can load SAS troops on the wings

Seems to be fixed now.
