I really want to see the real-world reviews on this before I'm willing to upgrade from my Vive.
Also, I probably need to upgrade my graphics card first. The 1070 Ti works well enough with the Vive, but the G2 is pushing a lot more pixels around.
Yep, makes sense, my 2080s should be okay. The reviews do say it's got a lower res mode for lower performance cards, but you'd still get the little to no screendoor affect in that case, screen door and FB is the main reason I want this as an upgrade to my Rift S
ETA 01-01-1999
Y2K bug strike a little late?
I asked about this before, the response was:
When this happens, it just means we don’t have a specific ETA date yet. These are scheduled to be ready to ship to customers in either late October or early November – hence no actual ETA since this is a time frame.
I missed out on the $899 HP deal, how likely is it to reach that price again before end of year?
I'd say it all depends on demand and stock… VR Headsets are not generally very good at keeping up with demand, but HP has much more access to production facilities
HP store had some pretty generous cashbacks around black friday last year, up to 14% IIRC. They would add you to the back of the queue though so you might not actually get it until January.
$899 is the US MSRP + GST, so frankly you should be seeing at or very near to that fairly often once initial stock (that was purchased during when the AUD was tanking) is cleared.
I'll jump on VR when MSFS is ready for it. Cannot wait
In closed beta now. Shouldn't be much longer.
ooooo didn't know the progress. how did u find that out?
They opened up registration a while ago (maybe a month or so?) and someone posted in one of the flight sim subreddits saying they've sent out phase 1 beta invites this week.
Also I just got my invite today so I guess that confirms it lol
@v8o: So it's usually quick from closed beta to final release? I guess it goes well with the G2 release date
@cosmokram3r: No idea! But considering that during development they said VR wasn't a priority, and now they have people testing it only 2-3 months after the game launched, seems promising. I'm sure Microsoft will want to cash in on the G2 release hype…
Oof I remember when this was 900. Will stick to the Rift S for now, until I absolutely have to link my Facebook account…
I got mine for $779. They had a glitch on their site that I saw on Reddit so I quickly got one before they took the ad down. Plus I'll be in the first wave of deliveries.
Got lucky!
Anticipating getting mine, pre-ordered from HP @ $900 (dispatched Dec was my last update, though the customer support said mid Nov)
