i can't wait for the budget 2x2 rift
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;41573529]not really yo shit's like this [editline]23rd July 2013[/editline] this is just a dramatic interpretation but the main fact of the matter is that a large percentage of the current screen goes unused so it might as well be 300x300[/QUOTE] so the 1080P one will be several times better compared to the old one it seems?
I've never been so sure to buy something at release like now with the rift.
For anyone who hasn't played the rift, the screen door is much more insignificant than people are making it out to be. I play the non-hd one and it was great, yeah theres a bit of an effect but it's so easy to look past and I could still read the hud fairly well on TF2. Would definitely buy it as it is now, but HD will be fantastic.
Did anyone actually get the Oculus Rift hat in TF2? I didn't fund the kickstarter, I would have wanted to buy a pack where you get the Rift, but couldnt afford. Should just have donated a dollar.

Also a reminder for all the new Rift owners, there's a really good OR mod for Minecraft (now with 1.6.2 support so it installs as a separate profile for super-easy launching): [url]http://www.mtbs3d.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=142&t=17489[/url]
JUST RUB IT IN HOW I DONT HAVE THE AWESOME TF2 HAT JUST CUZ IM WAITING FOR THE CONSUMER VERSION [editline]24th July 2013[/editline] They're probably gonna let everyone who buys a consumer versioon of the VR have a normal version of the hat, and genuine ones to people that supported the kickstarter/pre-ordered early. [editline]24th July 2013[/editline] If anyone has a unused TF2VRH code, I can offer a game or something for it.
I'm getting the 1080p Devkit when it comes out, I'm getting them all.
ALL of them? Do you happen to drive a Lambo aswell? So whats the biggest change from Devkit 1, to Devkit 2, to Consumer version? Dont know if I should just get Devkit 2 or consumer.

I think the consumer version will have positional tracking as well as directional tracking.
Have there been any announcements about a 2nd devkit?
Nope, purely speculation apparently. [editline]24th July 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=danharibo;41578596]Have there been any announcements about a 2nd devkit?[/QUOTE] Do you own an Oculus?
I'm unsure what to do about my Rift purchase, I was going to wait for the Consumer Rift but if it's not going to be available before late 2014, I may have to settle for a Dev Kit 2 as I want to do my final year project with the Rift :/
That sounds cool, but apparently the Dev Kit 2 was early ideas, before the first dev kits shipped. Buy a dev kit, then you can buy a consumer one later? In 30 years you're gonna have old "prototype" tech to show off to your kids or something xD

Doubt it will come at all.
alright, then let's hope that the consumer rift is the next release, and it's early in 2014
honestly the lack of positional tracking is much more immersion breaking than the screen door effect
So... yeah, Japan. [IMG]http://visualnovelaer.fuwanovel.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/vrjuc.jpg[/IMG] [url]http://visualnovelaer.fuwanovel.org//2013/07/custom-maid-3d-now-supports-oculus-rift-virtual-reality-eroge-for-reals/[/url]

If you can't let your friends shove a robotic vagina on your dick, then I doubt you could call them your friends, am I right?
[QUOTE=Zar;41582988]you jerk your friends off?[/QUOTE] Wouldn't have time, already jerkin myself. See with the rift it's fine because we can't see each other, makes it not weird
