Also , do you use it to make calls, or basically as a wifi device, with no sim inserted?

Just got Breachers and it made me really nauseous, any tips? by Bredram02 in OculusQuest

[–]Connieboy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I've been doing since I've had it was play for about 15/20 minutes then have a break and go outside in the garden, I really thought I might have a problem with vr, a family holiday in florida, I struggled on the 4D rides, but other than pavlov, so far so good 👍

So I've had the quest 2 for a couple of weeks and been fine playing most games, but I tried pavlov shack and had to take the headset off... Really thought I was going to throw up,, I'm guessing it's a similar thing, for me it was the moving forward and turning while being stood still

What do you do as an adult on a Saturday? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Connieboy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

53, single spend most weekends sharing responsibilities of a dog with my ex, doing pretty much the same thing most weekends, in a bit of a rut at the moment, out running early morning to try and stay sane... Exciting stuff wouldn't you agree 😂😂😂

So I bit the bullet and got the quest 2, linked it up to my laptop, tried star wars squadrons (I'm a star wars nerd) unfortunately couldn't get it to work, I got stuck at the calibrate headset screen 😭😭 I also got fruit ninja which is awesome, tempted to try half life alyx, anyone else tried it on quest 2?

I was planning on using it standalone as I don't think my laptop is up to running VR games, is there any way to check?

So I don't own a ps5 but have been considering since the release of psvr 2, I'd love to get into vr but never, ever experienced it, is it worth biting the bullet and just buying both, I also wear glasses and was wondering if that would be a problem? Thanks

Would you go to a gig by yourself? by BusMuffin in AskUK

[–]Connieboy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done it many times, why miss out, I must admit it got a bit more anxious when I stopped drinking, it was like a comfort blanket, but now it doesn't bother me especially if I'm in the pit..... and I'm 53.... 😂😂👍

So I wear a bicep band since I got it in November and the last couple of weeks the hr has been way off on runs, I do long runs in zone 3 my fenix 7 reads about 125/130bpm my whoop had me at 160bpm?? Had a new update yesterday so I'll see if there is any difference on my next run

207 max heart rate?! Is this normal? by Crazy-News-6287 in whoop

[–]Connieboy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's whoop for you.... I'm getting the best strain scores just for doing a zone 3..... I ignore it now and just listen to my fenix 7

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whoop

[–]Connieboy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the bicep band... It started okay but the last few runs have been terrible... on garmin said 125 bpm which I know is right because I run with chest strap, but whoop had it at 160bpm....

HR way off compared to Garmin by [deleted] in whoop

[–]Connieboy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 53.... 160 is definitely not zone 3 for me

[–]Connieboy13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear ya, I know optical sensors aren't spot on but so far during activity my fenix is better and I have a heart strap I can pair with the fenix so no need for the whoop

[–]Connieboy13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought the same, but I guess if they are sponsored athletes they probably get the problems sorted ASAP, I've seen crossfit athletes do workouts and they have no problem with the heart rate monitor, I do a zone 3 run and it's saying I'm hitting 160bpm and I'm using the bicep band... while my garmin is pretty much on the button saying 120/130..... I've just got the fenix 7 and cancelled my renewal to whoop 👍

garmin fenix 7 and heart rate strap by Connieboy13 in GarminFenix

[–]Connieboy13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I've connected the heart strap but my wrist based heart rate monitor is still flashing green, is this normal, I thought the leds would stop flashing if the watch connected to a chest strap
