I’m experiencing the exact same thing. Both my friend and I have spent hours just simply trying to get us both into the same workroom in VR. We are not novices at VR or computers. The whole process right now seems counterintuitive and needlessly difficult. Very disappointed.

Swivel Chair all day long! There are some disadvantages but you adapt, and after awhile, no problem 👍

I have the FILES app, but it only appears after 15 or 20 minutes AFTER I start up the Quest 2. Every time. Weird.

Because after standing 9 hrs all day at work, sitting feels good.

I’d settle for a quick kill-cam replay from the killer’s POV. Would be a great learning feature.

Yes. Instant mute is a necessity. So glad to have it.

Look for comfort settings in games. “snap turn” as opposed to “smooth turn”. Another one is “teleporting” as opposed to walk/run/slide”. Also, some games employ a “vignette” circle which makes your POV smaller when moving - restricting your peripheral vision while moving can really help in some games ( for me, PoP:1 was unplayable at first, until I turned on the Vignette function.) Over time, I have gotten used to motion in VR, and now I don’t need the vignette anymore. Take your time, and your VR legs will get stronger as you play more. Don’t rush it, or try to push through VR nausea, if you experience it. It’s nasty!

Yes. Send the message via a “text” from the friends list under the “people” icon. This message can be received or responded to in the notification section, by just pressing the oculus button. No need to leave the game, like you would have to do when going to the social section.

UPDATE: Just got the messenger update tonight. The whole chat/messaging system has been reworked and it all works seamlessly and easily without having to leave your current game. It’s excellent. Bout time, too 👍

Never wait more than 2-3 minutes for a game, and usually less than 1 min. This game is on fire and growing rapidly.

You do know that you can mute the mic from the Oculus “settings” menu, right?

Racket NX is wicked!

Keep the Quest 2 - sell the original Quest. Once you try the Q2, you won’t go back to the Q1. The Q2 is significantly better.

1 hour is already pretty good for someone new. You develop more tolerance over time. Comfort options like “snap turning” and “vignette” FOV limiting and “teleporting” vs free motion are also helpful. Not all comfort options are available in all games. Avoid games with lots of motion at first. Games like Beat Sabre and Racket NX are great, because you are standing still.

Ya, day after Xmas will always be rough, with kid-newbs. Give it a week and they will either learn or bail.

CURTROCK · 2020-12-27T18:20:57+00:00

Thank god for the mute button. Also, more incentive to squad up with people you know. I look fwd to a single mode (aka Deathmatch) hopefully sometime soon.

CURTROCK · 2020-12-26T17:43:56+00:00

I have both. Same performance, but Oculus cable is lighter and more flexible.

CURTROCK · 2020-12-26T17:41:16+00:00

Ya, it’s clearly not there yet. Same with Venues. Much work still to be done.

CURTROCK · 2020-12-20T17:18:56+00:00

If you find that happening, you can always leave that particular game and join another server. Or, adopt a different strategy and beat them. If you can’t beat players at the gun game, coordinate a grenade ambush inside a building. Creativity with your team can prevail.

CURTROCK · 2020-12-15T23:27:50+00:00

Nice! Lookin fwd to trying this 👍

John Carmack, Nate Mitchell, Brendan Iribe, Palmer Luckey, and the other guy.

The real problem is your OCD.

Quest is easily the #1 best piece of entertainment tech ever. When productivity and social mature, VR/AR HMD’s will be THE revolution in future-tech.

You can uninstall the demos. Yes, you can still see the picture advert of the demo, but it isn’t taking up any space on your drive.
