rrohde Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Never had an issue with WMR, and HP said that due to their collaboration with MS and Valve, the WMR experience will be even better. So yeah, no worries there at all.

rrohde Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Evolution rather than revolution. But good evolution nonetheless. They left the strength of G1 alone and addressed the weak points. How product development should be. +1 :thumbup: PC: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X | MSI Suprim GeForce 3090 TI | ASUS Prime X570-P | 128GB DDR4 3600 RAM | 2TB Samsung 870 EVO SSD | Win10 Pro 64bit Gear: HP Reverb G2 | JetPad FSE | VKB Gunfighter Pro Mk.III w/ MCG Ultimate VKBcontrollers.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 OK yes, I see WMR required. Wish ED would support it natively. Still tempting, better lenses , 4 cameras which I consider essential for inside/out tracking, and physical IPD adjustment. The audio does not factor in as I will always prefer in ear earbuds. Going to have to think on this one for a while. Fall is a ways away so I don't want to jump in just yet.

dburne Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 So can anyone comment, how WMR/Steam VR motion reprojection does in comparison to Oculus ASW technique? Oculus ASW does not bother me much at all, and obviously with DCS it runs ASW a fair amount of the time.

Gryzor Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 WMR reprojection is the better for me, superior to oculus and steamvr. Doesn´t produce artifacts when fighting with other bandit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK that is certainly interesting, hard to imagine it being better than Oculus ASW but certainly great if it is. I can cross that off my checklist.

1LtHoover Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 No, that's all you'll get. Same as Reverb G1 pre-order process. Thanks! There was Pre Order button on Reverb G2 page at hp.com site and now it is not there anymore. Huge rush of pre-orders so they decide to remove that pre order link?

I guess your country as most will have to wait a bit. No, you're missing the point. There was a pre-order button available which I and others here used earlier. It was later removed. That's from all HP sites, including US. I think the MRTV info was wrong as I am in the UK, and my location was noted and actioned OK.

1LtHoover Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) I tried Reverb G1 and love the sharpness and clarity, but not comfortable at all. (I have narrow face). Rift S is so comfy (most comfy of all is old Rift, Rift S is 2nd as i tried Ody, Ody+, Pimax 5k+). G2 should be quite much more comfy right out of box and I can customize foam with magnetic strips for more comfortable custom fit Edited May 28, 2020 by 1LtHoover 6k to 5k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoomer Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Got the notification email 2 hours ago for preorder from the same Dutch online shop I purchased the Reverb last year. 725 euro including the VAT. Similar price to my original. Tempting but a better FOV would have near sealed the upgrade. The limited FOV can be a pain in the neck, in every sense. I'll wait and see what other HMD's come to the fore in the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
