Sorry, I don't get it. It wasn't me who made that comment about Everspace by the way.
If you don't buy Odyssey you are effectively getting the same you would get if you don't buy another game.
VR support 'not at launch' for Odyssey
- Thread starter Lordxenu
- Start date
If you don't buy Odyssey you are effectively getting the same you would get if you don't buy another game.
Not yet, I'm still a few details short of being able to set up the gauge R+R study
i have thought the exact same thing.....they want the community to feel they have all of the input, release a statement thatthey know the community (or part of) will disagree with....allow them to shout their opinions.....360 change and give what they people want.....then nobody really worries about the other bugs in the game for a while because FD have worked to provide what was wanted
these tactics shave worked for many companies
If only. It's going to be more like this:
put on headset and fly to system
supercruise to planet
Land on planet
take headset off and use flatscreen to walk to SRV
Receive pop-up window notification that the planet you were on is part of "Elite Odyssey" content, and that your CMDR, your SRV, and your ship have all been relocated to low orbit above the planet in question.
put headset on
So what are we talking here, 60 %? 70%? 80%? complete?
No, sold it a couple of weeks ago to upgrade for Odyssey that was supposed to be coming out in the last quarter, but is now 2021. New graphics cards in a few months too from Nvidia and AMD. I was excited for my Elite VR.
Pays to wait until you have all the facts before making decisions I suppose.
You still have Elite VR by the way
It’s not unreasonable to be concerned that they may never make the case internally for adding it.
The official comments to date don’t amount to much more than what was said regarding PSVR:
And that didn’t happen.
Adding VR to this ambitious Legs expansion would be a far greater undertaking.
Which is what they said and why it isn't in at release.
VR will remain as it is currently, VR may be expanded to Odessy in the future.
I will not be playing an older version of ED knowing others are playing on new tech with better visuals. I cannot see Frontier bringing the planet tech to Horizons.
Didn't need the sly dig either.
I apologise i thought it was you
but my comments about it being a separate game were because of that statementmy point is that as it is an expansion to the game that has always supported VR then they DLC should really support it also support it. especially as the type of game it is, which even down to the galaxy, promotes realism. odyssey for me, not being VR compatible will take away that sense for every VR player.
as it is an expansion then there are going to be thing about it that make it harder for player without it, and basically forcing players to buy it. like it has been mentioned about horizons and engineering. but if it were a completely new game, i can understand it not being VR compatible, but then those VR players are not being alienated
Isn't the whole issue that without VR it isn't better visuals?
A lot of the Horizons eye candy came to the base game.
Probably 90%, but I couldn't give you a margin of error on that.
I kind of get that, I am just struggling with the idea that a completely new game would be OK. Most people on this forum would sharpen their pitchforks if space legs and atmospheric planets get released as a standalone game.I apologise i thought it was you

Sorry I'm only 35% +/- 10 happy with that
The planets look different in the base game to Horizons. Someone posted images on the other thread.
Most people on this forum would sharpen pitchforks if FDev gave them all twenty quid
Unless the new planet tech is used exclusively for entirely new types of previously unlandable planets, you'll most likely see better visuals on existing planets, too. We haven't actually seen much in the way of new planet tech yet, anyway, although it looks as though there are some improvements to surface textures and scatter prop variety. If Frontier don't update existing planets to use the new tech, well then fine, but I doubt this will be the case. There's still something happening with ice planets at some point, anyway.
Worth bearing in mind that all the lighting changes and neutron star changes and things like that went into vanilla Elite as well as Horizons when those changes were made.
I've never paid much attention but I only upgraded to Horizons about a 3 months ago.
I did see at one point though that planet stuff that was in Horizons was added to the base game
