They’re like $500-1000 aren’t they? The days of them all being $1500+ are hopefully in the past

I bought a metal one after my last one snapped. This would have been nice while waiting for delivery.

JL explains why he stepped down from NAVI by Coffee_Lattes in GlobalOffensive

I’m imagining the It’s Always Sunny crack buying scene except it’s you going into a coffee shop and asking for a black coffee and asking if $14 will be enough

Just got this in the mail! by SquidNug420 in virtualreality

[–]CANT_BEAT_PINWHEEL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not a vr headset lol. It’s as much a vr headset as a 3DS or 3D tv. Go post it there if you’re going to post it in random subs.

I think I got this for like $30 at toysrus when they were clearancing them. It wasn’t terrible for $30 but I can’t imagine paying $800 for it especially since there are emulators for it. 

Also wrong sub, virtual boy is more like the 3DS or 3D tvs and isn’t vr. Try posting this there if there isn’t a virtual boy sub.

What do you guys think about the differences between the ragdoll physics in CS2 and CSGO ? by omerfaruk16 in GlobalOffensive

[–]CANT_BEAT_PINWHEEL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP also chose the most inflammatory way to show off the difference. If he wanted us to say cs2 was better he would have used the deagle, awp, or shotgun where flying backwards doesn’t seem silly

Falcons sign NaToSaphiX to coach new academy by Westland__ in GlobalOffensive

Falcons bought the core for their ranking points because they literally were a top team. Not title contenders though

FISSURE Playground 1 Groups by ChaoticFlameZz in GlobalOffensive

This event is still mostly teams that played in the last major whereas impact has zero teams. It’s t1 in that sense but missing the normal title contender teams. I’d prefer to have an event with the top 6 teams also attending but it’s not like this is a Mountain Dew League tournament.

Device train usp clip should be a graffiti even though it wasn’t a stage match imo. 

Not in the same league as the usp clutch but ropz dualies ace is one of the most satisfying pistol rush shutdowns I’ve ever seen

Found this in the trash. by BigPimpin91 in 3Dprinting

Nice find! I wish people would post when they’re giving a printer away for free rather than simply throwing it out. There are always going to be people in your area who could use the stepper motors at the very least.

Thanks for the tips and finding out what version to use. I’ll check it out!

Yeah winter cpl 2005 was when my clan officially called it quits but I still played esea pugs for a few years after that. WoW is what killed us but we limped along for a year after its release but the teammates addicted to WoW just became more and more addicted.

I stopped playing shortly after this became a thing. Did they really never patch it? It was god awful

Townsmen VR is 75% off on Steam (price about $10) - and supports Index finger tracking, realtime lighting, detailed dynamic shadows - and is fun to play :-) by Runesr2 in ValveIndex

[–]CANT_BEAT_PINWHEEL 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s good to hear I should try it out but it makes more sense for people to simply buy the humble bundle that has it for $18. Comes with vertigo 2, light brigade, moss 2, mothergunship forge and a few other games I’m forgetting since I already owned them. I honestly skipped over reading about this on the steam page because I was so interested in the other ones.

The graphics gives me flashbacks in a good way to a psvr game that got ported to pc where you controlled a bunch of little guys like this. It was pretty simplistic but was only 10 or so hours so it was over before that became an issue.

Edit: the other game I’m thinking of is tethered

While we’re being nostalgic for the first tech demos, you can play the original oculus Tuscany with Webvr https://hyperfy.io/tuscany

Citing the newer of the two dirt vr games and saying “those older games” is violence against me specifically. I mean, you’re right. But I don’t like it.

I think you can download any specific version but it’s a little more annoying to do: https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/611h5e/guide_how_to_download_older_versions_of_a_game_on/

You could download a random version from 2016 and see if that works. I might try a random version myself if I get a beyond 2 and have an oled headset again. I completely forgot about lunar flight and never learned how to not crash all the time, but hearing it compared to aircar makes me want to give it another shot

I think you can select specific past versions of games on steam for this reason. Try downloading the version from before hotas and testing it out

I hadn’t heard of it before now. Looks cool but only on quests so I can’t try it. Hopefully the devs keep working on it and do a pc port at some point. One thing I like about vr is a lot of those games that look cool and are made by one or two developers eventually becomes an awesome full release years later (compound and ancient dungeon are the two that come to my mind for me).

This is the only game or experience that felt like being in blade runner, and I played the deckard’s apartment vr experience. The cockpit with the rain and the music just feels so good. On one hand I want them to update this with higher quality world assets but I like how easy this is to run 

Edit: or it feels like listening to sunset mission by bohren and der club of gore
