  1. 1. Oculus Rift and DCS World Discussion

    • 599$ did not faze you, and YOU PRE-ORDER IT!
    • 599$ puts me into bankrupcy - I will not spend that kind of money - WILL NOT BUY
    • on the fence, will BUY LATER (at retail launch)

This device will be definitely great, but I'm affraid of the influence of the social factor. Ya know... grown man, wearing this strange device, turning his head around like during fit of epilepsy... and now try to imagine your wife, GF etc. standing at the door with his/her jaw dropped... :huh::D

 

We are already called geeks, even without OR :doh:

Brilliant. Goodnight, when you get the Rift, don said Rift and call your missus up to your mancave, and sing 'I, just called to say I love you'. Maybe even play some kind of keyboard app to make it more authentic. Then post on youtube!

I had a chance to try out the 1080p Oculus Rift yesterday at I/ITSEC, and it's a big improvement in clarity over the current dev kit version. The guy at the booth said they're hoping to have the 1080p kits available sometime early next year-ish. :)

I was hoping the new dev kits would be 1440p but, 1080p is better than nothing. If it has positional tracking also like John Carmack hoped, it'll be much improved.

Cool. I can't wait to see it in better resolution. My Note 10.1 is amazing at 2560x1600.

Forgive me if this has been stated but is there a price range they are aiming for with this device? What kind of coin are we talking about ? Or is it still too new to say?

If I remember correctly is bellow 500. Reasonable for potentially game changer.

Sorry for being difficult, but is that 500 DOLLARS or some other currency?

(I am in the USA)

 

Thanks!

Dollars.

 

I believe they were hoping for well under $500 but no specific price has been identified, AFAIK.

Wow.. If they can even come CLOSE to meeting that price point and have any kind of decent performance they will blow open the whole simming industry as that would be a better experience at a far cheaper price than multiple monitors, Track Ir etc costs now..

 

As for everyone's concerns regarding the keyboard and such, Maybe an onscreen keypad that could be moved anywhere you like? Something coded in similar to the kneeboard in use now. Not perfect but possibly workable..

 

Here's hoping they are successful with this thing..

Interesting tech times for sure! :thumbup:

I hope ED support the rift at launch... I'm looking forward to this device almost as much as EDGE and the Hornet. Hopefully in the next 1-2 years we'll have them all!

It is not going to be ready for 'our' simulator anytime soon. The resolution is way too low... even the HD version doesn't offer enough pixels. It'll be nice to just fly around in the 'World' but actually finding and targeting the bad guys... ain't gonna happen IMHO. Then there's latency to 'worry' about. A lot of people are complaining about nausea although it seems Oculus has made great progress in countering that effect. From all the info I can find on the web it seems they have a long way to go before it becomes a viable add-on for DCS.

 

And I need to be able to see my keyboard... looking out through a slit on the bottom isn't doing it for me...

 

Now, CastAR... it has 'serious' drawbacks as well but it does seem better suited to my needs.

The new Samsung Galaxy S V is to be one of the most dense pixel phone around. About 550 ppi for 5.2 inch. Resolution is more than 1080p standard there :)

 

What ppi does Oculus have?
