Oculus Rift Official Thread (preorders start 1/6/16 $599 Expected to Ship in March)

Man, Oculus (or Facebook) is really fukking up. There's been no communication, nobody except initial backers have gotten their units yet, and apparently they forgot to send out the pads for glasses (luckily I don't wear glasses). At this point, nobody knows when they will get their headsets. I was hoping this week, but now I'm just hoping for April sometime. I bet I'll get my Vive before the Rift. Man fukk Oculus right now. What are they doing? Horrible launch

 

[-DMP-]

Vive is going to shyt on the rift

Atleast until they get touch controls.

Can someone post a review of the vive?

Truthfully, as some of you that have been on here for a while know, I kinda hate life. Tech is one of the few things in life that brings me joy. That's why I go so hard with it. If it wasn't for tech and music, I probably would have killed myself by now. Real talk...I'm a very depressed and negative person. Tech brings me the little bit of happiness that makes life worth living. Music also soothes my soul. Without those...I dunno. I guess

Perhaps you've had those thoughts because there is a greater purpose to life.

What’s Your Goal?


Are fulfilling it?

@daze23 There's talks of Divinity: Original Sin getting VR support.

I might finally get into the game, despite the combat

So all that I am hearing is that nothing is must buy right at launch. Expected I guess, but a bit underwhelming. It hurts the launch when people look at it like

Not to mention Oculus completely fukked up the launch. Nobody but initial Kickstarter backers have the Rift yet. HTC already charged me for my Vive and it should be here next week. Who knows when I'll get my Rift. I wanna play Lucky's Tale on my Rift though. That's really the only game I'm really looking forward to, and it's a Rift exclusive. It's supposed to be like Mario 64, but in VR

My Vive will get more play I'm sure though. That Steam integration is key.

I see the announcement, but I don't understand what it is. it says you don't need a VR headset

Into the Rifts!
Following the recent release of the virtual reality headset Oculus Rift, we are very excited to announce a preliminary version of our first foray into virtual reality (VR) gaming.


Who knows what Roderick's looking at? Or who's looking at him...

As diehard RPG enthusiasts, this is, of course, a brave new world for us at Larian. Check out Swen coming to grips with this exciting new technology in the video below:



Now, we cordially invite you to JOIN US in testing out our first attempt at VR gaming.

Who? PC players of Divinity: Original Sin- Enhanced Edition

What? Larian’s first in-game VR mode. You do NOT need a VR headset to try it.

Where? In your own living room/ dungeon/ Void

When? Right now!

How?
- Fire up Steam or GOG and download the most recent update for Divinity: Original Sin- Enhanced Edition.
- Start a new game. (The new mode won’t work in older saved games.)
- Conduct a little treasure hunt around the starting area of the game (VR-goggle engineering imps are known to hide loot along walls and behind crates) and you'll find a very special bag with everything you need to try the new mode.


Update the game and look around the starting area to find everything you need to experience VR mode.
Let us know what you think at the Larian forums.

I don't know if it's some kind of joke or what. I'll have to check it out I guess

Busted one nut to that gear vr porn and copped the oculus rift this morning.

688 dollars to bust nuts.

Money well spent.

I hope this resolution is classic

Oculus if fukking up the launch. I ordered within minutes of the preorder window and still haven't got a shipment date. Don't expect to get this till mid-summer. My HTC Vive is coming sooner than my Rift. Facebook or Oculus really fukked up with the launch. Nobody but initial KickStarter backers have units. I was expecting to get mine this week, but it's looking like I won't get mine until the middle of the month

With a preorder right now, you're looking at July.

Also, your PC is a laptop, right? Keep in mind you need 3 USB 3.0 connections and 1 USB 2.0 one. Make sure your graphics card can handle the rift too. There's a program on the Oculus website that can check your pc, to make sure it compatible

Yeah, it's seeming like a joke. Oh well
