1080p rift is here... this will be very usable with DCS! I hope ED is paying attention....

 

Even without that news coming so soon, it is becoming quite apparent that by the time the Rift hits the shelf in Best Buy it is going to be a very viable gaming display.

I've imagined DCS but with Outerra (whole world) scenery... I could sit there and fly for a week without sleeping or eating before passing out...

From official press release "The prototype’s 1080p display increases the number of visible pixels by more than 2x, greatly reducing the screen-door effect seen in the development kit."

 

Greatly-reducing is not elliminating, I wouldn't hold my breath.

But nevertheless I'm looking forward! :)

 

They are not sure they will give 1080p for developers, but if they do I will be in the line.

 

P.S.

Image is better, but not that drastically different

With current devkit I doubt, you will be tired very soon, and would like to take it off much earlier

I feel like this is going to be one heck of a sham. I dunno... just kinda feel like something is off with this, I think it might be over hyped and people will be disappointed. I would love to be wrong tho.

 

Take a look at our in-depth DCS A10C tutorials

 

If you want to participate in these tutorial sessions, please send me a PM and I can get you setup! :)

 

TUTORIALS TO RETURN "VERY SOON"

Do you have one? Until you have tried it, and remember that the unit is still in development, that is a judgement you cannot objectively make.

Everyone who tries one is absolutely blown away by the thing, even the hardest of skeptics.

Not only this.. but any big (last one was Sony with the PS4) is looking at it.. in other words the device is already "marked" as a mass-sale piece of hardware before it even hits the stores.

While on this forum we're still thinking if support it or not.. and we didn't received any official reply so far. What a shame.

I understand that ED hasn't really made any Oculus plans yet. But does anyone know of any other flight sim companies that have made a pledge to support it? I just have to get my hands on one, but don't want to be stuck in a FPS for all eternity.

War thunder is supporting it so far...

 

Btw, it does look like Sony PS4 will support it in the future... crazy stuff

Posted

Really impressed as I wasn't expecting a 1080p version at E3. Sounds like its made a huge difference and the not so suttle hint that Sony will be supporting it for the PS4 is Amazing.

 

I truely believe we might just see a good VR headset in my lifetime. I just hope and pray that Ed are taking note, and will also support it. The rift is built with A sim like DCS in mind. It would be perfect for it.

 

There's only one real major issue.

 

Which is how painful the wait is gonna be for the consumer version.

................There's only one real major issue....................

 

 

 

And the small matter of not being able to see the keyboard/joystick setup. Kinda crucial with something as complex as a DCS title. Great for RoF though :)

Make that 2 - propensity for sea-sickness after 5 minutes if Wingman's (star citizen) experience is anything to go by :megalol:

That is an individual thing. I have not noticed any motion sickness with even fast movement. It can be disorienting but not enough to cause nausea in my case.

I don't remember the last time I've touched my keyboard or have been forced to look at something else than my screen/cockpit.

There might problem with semi-arcade aircrafts like those in FC3, but with the A10C, a full clickable cockpit and the hotas, it's all you need.

Yep you're wrong. I have tried it for 15 min tonight (just received my kit) and I'm stunned (and motion sick as shit :megalol:).

 

The resolution is already enough for a proper experience in DCS IMO. I was quite surprise with the image knowing the crappy resolution.

Someone's built FSX support for the rift already.
