Ghost Machine Launches Alpha, Greenlight for VR Flight Sim Warhawks http://vrfocus.com/archives/16064/ghost-machine-launches-alpha-greenlight-for-vr-flight-sim-warhawks/

 

Good News.....

 

VR could invigorate the flight sim market again

 

Bad News......

 

It will be mostly arcade type sims

 

Good News.......

 

Many of the new arcade flyers could create a demand for more demanding combat flight sims, creating a market big enough for developers to jump back into the genre.

 

I hope VR will be a great thing for flight sims (since it's such a great fit, just like racing sims).

 

I'm also hoping for resurrection of the mighty force feedback joystick, if not I'm holding on to my MS FF2 and g940 :)

 

Other than that all we need is 6dof motion platform for a holodeck experience.

Thanks CichildFan...I am reading now...

Never mind I am watching now, I dont know he seems to throw the stick to the right and have quite a bit of lag time for the platform to react, however it does look pretty promising he also seems to need to center since he sure looks like he is staring left a lot...

Wicked set up, but he also needs longer cables..lol that would drive me nutts,

In the end I think its a pretty cool step in the right direction any movement is better than none, and it looks wicked...

Now I am going to read about configuration of the Joystickl for chopper flight and to learn how to take off and land later...lol

hopefully we can get some info on the DCS side of what kind of support we can expect... All I fly in is my Rift... 2d just doesn't work anymore.

Exactly, 2d is ridiculous its impossible to go back to once you have allot of flight time in the Rift

Lol xb1 wireless controller as their vr controller. Dx12 needs to come to dcs 2.0

It's a strange presentation, which seems to assume most of the audience are new to VR. I guess as a fanboy there is the strong possibility that I over estimate peoples awareness of the potential and functionality of VR.

 

That said, I welcome them taking the time to increase global awareness if it brings prices down and increases sales == increases the potential for display resolutions at a level where DCS becomes real.

 

A man can dream...

well oculus can do so much, the game needs to be built and tweaked specifically for oculus rift, aka dcs 2.0 needs to blow this out of the water.

Wow no Dcs 2.0 demo at e3? you guys are missing a huge opportunity. The games they are demoing at e3 look retarded.

Most of the presentations seem to be "here's the new release we're working on..." types of commercials. But I do agree the 3D sound they integrated will be the sleeper hit of VR! It's not as useful in a flight sim, but in a first person shooters, it can make all the difference.

 

7-9 more months of waiting, I suppose!

new input device

 

oculus touch

 

Aye, this has sparked my interest. In the cockpit these could significantly improve the suspension of disbelief.

Seems like DCS isn't with Oculus at E3 this time around...

 

 

Because:

We will not be. Far too busy with other pressing matters... like trying to get DCSW2 and NTTR out.

Id like to see how that would work and do you think ed will actually have it in dcs 2.0? I wont hold my breath. Overall the presentation was lame and no mention at all of flight sims other than the first person Space shooter that evidently according to them is best with a xbone controller. Im happy with the dk2, just need dcs 2.0 to improve things like downsampling and cockpit text and it will be good until the vive comes out.

Xbox 360 controller was one of the highest rated gamepads, Xbox One Gamepad has received significantly higher scores, it IS one of the best game pads out there.

 

I have 4, 2for XBO and one on each PC.

So your going to use it for dcs 2.0? No one is disputing it's quality I use one with my pc also. Too many indie games they need to showcase real flight sims as that gives you better feeling of presence than 3rd person platformers. Plus dcs world could bring in allot more revenue if they showcase 2.0 with the cv1 at E3
