£5.19?! It's no wonder you guys are poor.

Only want to play in VR so probably won't get a chance for a few days, but looking forward to it.

Good luck!

I TOLD Jeff to put "a bit higher price" (just a bit, not much ) but he INSISTED that "no that's right" :roll:

Pricing is such a tricky one. Put it too high, you put people off. Put it too low, it gets ignored and lost in the masses.

Hallelujah. The price is too low, but it's "buy copies for my friends" low, so you'll get your money either way.

I don't understand the Restart Best mechanic in this, it seems to cap out at level 3? And doesn't include my lives?

You can restart to the latest COMPLETED level with the lives you had when you finished it.

So if you complete LEVEL 4 ( but not 5 ) you can restart from 4 with the lives you had at 4.

Ah, I think my issue is that Pure mode is completely separate/different in this one. I thought I could start a game in pure and then switch over to normal to cheese my way up after like in MA Gridrunner, but they're different with different rules this time.

At the moment as I understand it people seem to think that the headset to get if you want the best VR experience and don't mind being tethered is the Valve Index.

The Rift S is the best desktop/tethered Oculus rig.

WMR headsets have been largely ignorable but apparently there's an HP one coming out soon that's supposed to be super good, but I don't know that much mre about it, I only heard of it because it's specifically being called out as being the first VR headset to be supported in MS FS2020. There has even been speculation that it may end up bering supported by the new Xbox Series X console, but that's not a given yet.
Justified and Ancient.

What Yak said OR, depending really on "how much tethered/not tethered" you are up to, but I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THAT DOES WITH A *LAPTOP*, I can tell you "it's OKEISH with a i5 and a GTX1070" that's all I can tell, one "pretty good alternative" is the Oculus Quest with a cable and the "link" option.

You don't get 100% "the super VR when in that mode" ( i.e. via cable connection ) but you get "90% of it" the advantage is "you get the 100% experience when NOT connected to anything" and you can bring it around with you even on a train/etc. "no cables needed" when used by its own.

Let's put it this way "if the laptop turns out to be NOT so powerful" .. then probably even the S won't give you "much satisfaction" because you won't be able to drive it, while the Quest by its own is "powerful enough to run its own SW".

I hope you get a laptop "up to specs for VR" because VR is quite demanding.

The only PITY is, at the moment, we don't have any "native" ( working on it ) Quest SW .. but you could still use it cabled to the PC.

WHEN you get ANY VR thing .. please send me a PM or an email ...

I wouldn't!

A Quest will give you a wireless experience where you don't need a PC and can also tether with a PC and be very close to a Rift S (you could argue better as it's OLED).

Will try Moosey with a Quest this weekend.

Thanks for all the info chaps. Had a quest and sold it a few months ago...doh.
This is the laptop spec so not too shabby.
ASUS TUF FA506IU 15.6 Inch Full HD 144 Hz Gaming Laptop (AMD Ryzen 5 4600H, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660Ti, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB PCIe SSD, Windows 10)
How that would run a vr headset ill need to investigate, was hoping it would. Didnt want to spend anymore than I did though so if it doesn't its no big deal.

"By nose" it should be capable of running VR, ram is a bit small, disk is OK, CPU is OK, your sight still works better than mine, I have difficulties in less than 27 inches :lol:

No seriously :mrgreen:

Basically the idea about the Quest is "if the laptop is good enough with the cable should go ok but in case NOT the Quest is still good by its own".

While having a "pure tethered thing" yes you get "the best VR you could get" IFF the PC is really powerful.
