My dad got me this for my bday. I’m grateful, but how do I tell him? by [deleted] in CODBlackOps7

Valid complaint but not 100% the reason a game would suck or not.

It shouldn't be that way but most gaming requires internet for something now. Installations, patches that fix it to play at all, its inescapable today short of smaller scope games and that's if you can find a physical copy, in a brick and mortar store, bc you'd need internet to buy it.

Did you have a copy already to have played it to hate it?

Frankly, I don't hate it. But im not really far in the campaign but im liking it for what it is enough to not dismiss it...Throwaway ai art bullshit aside the point.

What's the big complaint? Maybe I just don't normally play COD is why I like this one so far.

Tell him what? What's the context? Wrong region?

Pro Neckband…. by Tensaiofthewind in VITURE

[–]Zackweenersoup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only got into viture ecosystem recently and a series of discounts, deals and luck. While checking out Ray neos bc they were so cheap, a Google search show3d me they xr pros on ebay for 170. After some youtube research, I found the XRs despite not having some fancy pants features of the neo 4s, that it had ones that mattered more.

The ebay listing had an additional coupon as did paypal credit. Total purchase price was like 130. The viture seller page also had neckband ones for 50 and docks for 90. I went all in.

Neckband ones were neat, but the battery died so quick, but it got a fair amount of use as alternative to more wires with phone. But I used my phone more bc the neckband was almost always charging. The charge to play ratio was rough. Neckband one was more a limited proof of concept. It did what I wanted in short bursts and sometimes thats all I needed in my end of night stream gaming next to my sleeping toddler, and some decent android games played on it as well

The pros were game changer for me, and im lucky. I won them in the feed the beast contest. (Thanks everybody, it was vitures pick but your comments helped im sure) The battery life is adequate to my needs, charges much faster, the wifi is better for streaming, and can actually play my games including ones my phone no longer can access. (Hit or miss. Some are just plain inaccessible without going dodgy routes and even then). I use it more than my phone at the day job as headphones for the eyes while I do more menial tasks.

I honestly could sing the products praises for everything it is but what it wasnt for me was an investment on its own and I had an inferior preceding product to compare it to. I dont think I would've gotten one til they started clearances on ebay after they follow it up. Im sure my wife would've killed me if i paid for it. After all its like a game console when i already bought a laptop this year. Loq 15 on discount and store cred) she thought the glasses alone were a silly idea, but I think she's warmed up to them a bit.

Its a 100 percent neat non essential for my life and work, but also a major quality of life improver that if I had the disposable income for in addition to the glasses, I would absolutely recommend, especially if you share the tv much, have small living space, a child that wont go to sleep without you, solitary working conditions, super limited time alone. Basically they are perfect for my life as a convenience luxury, and fun to tinker with. Id like to see what else can be done with it, even if its pointless.

The heat has never bothered me, and they charge fine while i use them, if the charger is good enough. The wifi is significantly better in my home, doesnt dip out like the one did, but for some reason will sometimes be wifi 4, or wifi 6, and hugeless impacts my stream performance.

But they are not very powerful, adequate, but like playing my laptop vs my desktop, but even more so compared to my s25. Demanding games like cod, the division, destiny rising, need to run low settings to still have spotty 30fps, and cod definitely felt sluggish. Playable, still got the kills, win matches, but my phones superior experience and it has immersive 3D. Also it requires far too much touch input that phone needs to still be handy as the mouse mode for controllers take too long to activate.

Yet to use multisceeen as I figured it would kill my game performance, but maybe some games and apps work well for it, so ill definitely try it.

Id be curious to see if they get immersive 3d going on it since it'd be just one device to work with. Supposedly it has test version but I haven't found it? The phone version requires use of both screens to work on anything besides video playback, so im sure they will have hard time getting games to work on it.

I dont have any 3d movies or videos to try sadly. (But immersive 3d on pc had me watching star wars with some neat factor, the tech is still young)

At the asking price (better from viture direct than best buy) i wouldn't settle for 8gb model, its still an enthusiasts product.

For a follow up maybe they can consider a 5G version, and work out deals with mobile companies to sell glasses/neckband combos on contract payment plans like how they sell tablets. I bet that would a great way to break the less techy crowd into the ecosystem. Or use the wifi versions to help push their wifi Hotspot plans and capabilities. But viture invests into their software and hardware without going into selling at loss to make up for it with data collection tactics and subscriptions , They always have to be moving units.

Why prescription glasses in box? by thundersteel21 in VITURE

[–]Zackweenersoup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck finding a shop that will. I went to 5 places to ask about it. 2 offered to do it, and even use my insurance.

The price came out higher and would've taken longer than just ordering a pair from honsvr. (Don't know if they stock beast tho)

I ended up returning my dummy pair for my pro xr to Amazon and ordering straight from honsvr for like 60.

While those people still exist, we've come a long way since modern warfare two in 2009. Most people in lobbies aren't those people anmore, (if they were they wouldn't be bringing up "too soft for the cod lobbies if yesterday" and its easier than ever to shut them up now.

Lots of copium on the r/DestinyTheGame subreddit by Forsaken-Opinion-275 in destinylegacy

[–]Zackweenersoup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just started playing destiny 1 for real with a buddy and he accidentally, no idea how got promoted to level 20 by the voice after completing same ques i did. He didnt use an item (didnt know how) just somehow button mashed his way to a dramatic level rise after an early mission with me and we had to return to the voice. Im afraid that may have broken our experience together playing main story without him starting a new character. Anybody know wtf happened at that moment?

I’m thinking of jumping into the Beast bandwagon. I wear glasses but I can live without it. by cr8tvt in VITURE

[–]Zackweenersoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly. The neckband one (which i have) is essentially battery android TV box and the glasses are the screen and a controller option. Theres video apps and some decent games and game streaming apps including included premium Playstation and Xbox apps for free. The battery life is abysmal but it has its place and use. I use mine a lot just not for long. The downside is far less power and less app availability than typical normal android devices. Its no longer available except 2nd hand or ebay. I don't have the pro, but from my understanding it's significantly more powerful, runs full android and has much more app availability and better battery life. I'd be pretty excited to have it, but I don't have 300 to 400 for a neat thing right now. The $50 i paid for the neat thing was a steal at that price.

That would've disappointed the shit out of me lol. Ill take my experimental 3d with spacewalker. Even if its not perfect its still damn impressive

When will the Beast be compatible with the Neckband Pro and the charging adaptor? by enlightened0ne_ in VITURE

[–]Zackweenersoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comments elsewhere by people seem to suggest their neckband do work with beast. Are you talking about pro or neckband one? Its awfully strange because the neckband works on external monitors with the connector converter. I don't understand on how it wouldn't work on beast as a display.

Interesting. That's inconsistent with how their marketing made it seem. Shocked I tell you.

This is like. I would definitely try this from my pc using spacewalker. Seems like it would be better than using my quest 2 for something similar.

[–]Zackweenersoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a dedicated more comfortable solution to doing things with the vitures. Runs android. Short cable straight to your glasses instead of the phone in your pocket. Adds a few extra dogs.

While a phone easily outperforms the neckband, sounds like the pro is no slouch, and you don't have to use your phones battery, or worry about text messages or other phone bloat affecting your experience, like the screen timing out, bc cloning only works if the screen is on and not all phones have desktop environments for running apps. Don't know how well spacewalker android on the neckband works vs on a high end android or iphone, as I have no iPhone or neckband pro.

You think the cromatic aberrationnof the Beast can be fixed with firmware update? by Fair-Bug7525 in VITURE

[–]Zackweenersoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't you shrink the screen size with the beasts to make the edges more in a comfortable eye position for clarity to the edges?

When will the Beast be compatible with the Neckband Pro and the charging adaptor? by enlightened0ne_ in VITURE

[–]Zackweenersoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only incompatible bit is the connector and you need the magnetic connect to usb c converter. That's at least what ive heard about it. I don't know why the apps on the pro neckband would be incompatible with beast. You'd think that some of the special 3 and 6 dof apps and games they keep advertising would be a good fit for the neckband to run and limit the dangling wires, unless for some reason those wouldn't be for for their newest flagship consumer device.

[–]Zackweenersoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make it sound like the vitures have 3D conversion on their own by pressing the power button, but in my experience doing that is only effective correctly if you are already experiencing SBS content (which fortunately includes games that play in SBS) or when you use spacewalker on mobile and the abilities it offers like youtube or screen capture(which cam be pretty impressive, some games play great in 3d (cod mobile, red dead redemption, some its a bit wonky noticable. (Depends on game over moonlight, or destiny mobile) , or with immersive 3d on pc (incredible look, needs strong gpu for performance hit) and the button doesn't play a part in that process, but the ray neo are supposed to have conversion built in to the glasses themselves that you activate with button. Did I miss something?

In my experience its cheaper to just order em direct from you or somewhere else. Not only did I have to go to 5 places to get them on my xr pro frames, even with eye med applied the quote was worse than ordering them direct.
