So, Ive been following VR ever since I got my headset. And I thought I would share with you guys some news about VR in case you havent been following it.
This will be fairly Vive specific as that is the headset I have and am interested in...
Games : there are over 250 titles out for the Vive already, the rate at which new games comes out is absolutely amazing.
AAA : triple a developers are starting to take notice already. Games like Doom and Fallout 4 are getting official support in 2017. Racing games are also joining the party with games like project cars already with full support for VR.
AAA hacked : Even if developers dont support VR, there are things like VORPx that you can use to play PC games of all sorts on the vive. But this is really limited, doesnt really support tracked controllers, or room scale, and obviously the games dont have touchable elements...
Resolution : The resolution of the vive is damn good, considering the thing is inches from your face. But it just got better. They have found out we can use supersampling with the vive, up to a factor of 2.5 original resolution, to get a even crisper image and clearer text.
Multiplayer : multiplayer games are here, there arnt alot of them, but games like hoverjunkers, altspaceVR, and the new Rec Room have been getting rave reviews.
Accessories : one thing alot of people never mention is accessories. The vive is also capable of having all sorts of accessories. For instance, a game came out recently that has a sort of small exercise pedel bike thing that you use in the game, like those arcade simulator games. Things like this and other trackable real world objects will be more and more common. The headset itself even has a usb port that can be used for such addons.
Well that should be good for now...
If you have any VR / Vive specific questions or whatever let me know...
