really don't understand why we need vr in an fps module. Personally i think it would be a major handicap if a vr player was faced against a non vr player
It nose dived when he was in charge. He was the one that implemented powerplay, CQC, multicrew etc. If anything, the game has gotten better since he left.

Source?
For me, yes. Mainly because a), I don't use vr (yet), therefor, do not care that much about it, and b), I'd be pretty ed if after a 2-3 year content drought and multiple delays, we wind up with a copy-paste srv mechanic, but with legs (and aTmoSpHeRE!).
Don't get me wrong, they have every right to be angry about this. I was pretty bummed too (I had plans to purchase a vr headset), and their concern is just as valid as everyone else's. But for some of us, it's not exactly our biggest concern.
<offtopic>While in my early forties I don't necesarily have the same reflexes as twenty year old me playing Unreal Tournament on Inhuman level, I am spoiled by 120Hz. 60Hz looks like slideshow to me and I do notice frame drops in Overwatch in range of 120->100. 120Hz is just so much smoother. Experiment with it some if you can, but be warned, once you see it you can't unsee it, and 60Hz games need 5-10 minutes adjusting period until you no longer notice it's sluggishness ;-)</offtopic>
Are we just ignoring the fact that after 5 years we still aren't getting ship interiors to walk around in? There was a deleted thread already where am FDev employee confirmed ship interiors are not happening. I find that a bigger deal than whining about VR
Because FPP doesn't always equal FPS, that's why.
No VR... okay, so it‘s tme to say goodbye then, I guess. For all the love I feel for the game, it just isn‘t the same if you step out of the Elite universe and take place at a petty monitor at your home - and I have a 43“ 4K screen... just not comparable, not even close.
Sorry FDev, but this is where our ways will part & my purse will no longer open for you.
So what now - hope for SC to go VR ? Hmmm, they can‘t even get the flat version completed, so that won‘t happen either.
Hopefully somebody picks up the concept and builds on the good and avoids the bad at some stage.
Until that happens I will likely turn to DCS, something I had been planning to do some day anyhow, seems 2021 will be the year.
We had good times together FDev, thanks for everything (and the fish), good luck with your further endeavours.
Over and out, o7

Star Citizen actually anounced they are going to implement VR. Good timing! Mind you i will see who implements it first.
Sturmovik VR is pretty cool. DCS Super carrier Nomansky the new space engineers VR. Tank crew VR, Onward....I will wait.
Thanks for all the fish Fdev. I will be buy when you sell VR. Kthxbye!

Actually they dropped it from the roadmap ages ago.
EDIT: HUH WHAT WHERE LINKY PLS?
O boohoo, the expansion that isnt out for another half year doesn't have VR but the rest of the game still does. I'm sure FDev won't be sad to see you go
It's normal for a Lifetime Expansion Pass, no ?
I don't see a gift here. It was agreed like that during the kickstarter for the founding members.
It would be a real scandal if it were not included in the pass for the founding members.

Well, you have to quote the whole Steam page if you're going to do it because there's more there. However, if you disagree, that's fine. I will take the wait and see, because all of those blurbs are ambiguous to me and I want detail.
Of course you do need it, the quotes are for emphasis. I toyed with the Asus 65" 4k monitor, to go with the rest of my ROG fanboy build, but couldn't justify the desire for the hertz as being worth the extra £1500. I'm doing a lot of CAD work, so I "needed" the acreage thence the scale up in hertz is exponentially more expensive.Well... I did put 'need' in quotes

But 120Hz would be awesome.
if people knew the effort it took to make a game, they might understand what the devs go through. trying to please a bunch of ungrateful people with VR headsets that thier mom prolly bought them for Christmas.. I read VR will not be released at launch . it doesn't say it will never be released..
Yeah... it doesn't matter how big or many your monitors are. You're still sitting at a desk looking at a screen(s).
I much prefer BEING in my ship and/or actually walking around on a planet. Nothing beats a good HMD.

that’s literally what a Protest is...
I haven’t posted here in over a year (reasons) but now I have one...
and I’m not going to stop ...
Ah, good, so you speak to them frequently that you would know ? Cool, must be an important user then.
Who knows what their plans are for the existing parts of the game. But they have gotten a bit old, the hunger for content or features was there. But FDev imho already retracted efforts for quite a while, no annual seasons with meaningful updates but instead it spread out over a couple of years. And I wasn‘t always all too impressed with the quality & quantity of new features, at stages it felt as if they celebrated minor additions as ground-braking features. So I must say I am not really surprised at the fact that they are pulling out in some fashion, just didn‘t expect it to happen this way by abandoning VR.
But it is their free decision, I am no original backer either, so have no right to complain out of that perspective either. Just saying that the game needed some fresh ideas to remain enticing and if this now won‘t come to me as a VR user, I am going to pull out of it. Never said I exoected FDev to cry into their pillows as a result, they will likely have done the math and concluded that they can earn much more in Arx sales on consoles than VR users would do them any financial good in the grand scale.
FDev is in it for the money, not the love of the game, after all, this is their job, not pastime.
lets just skip over the fact that I’m older than I care to admit and leave mums out of it - if they announced that the new expansion won’t be released on console, but that they will revisit the possibility at a later date - would that be ok?
