Yes like i said, companies wanted to 'create' a product (for their profits) so spent quite a lot of money on marketing/shilling VR (and 3D TV back in the day). That process is still going on (cough)

Not sure if the cough is aimed at me... but i assure you i have no motivation to "shill" VR other than being a gaming / tech enthusiast who loves cool stuff.... and VR to me is incredibly cool and transforms many games it is used in...... i certainly dont profit for anything vr wise, quite the opposite, having shelled out for 4 headsets over the years (i only have 2 now)Yes like i said, companies wanted to 'create' a product (for their profits) so spent quite a lot of money on marketing/shilling VR (and 3D TV back in the day).

No my cough was because i have a cold currently (maybe)
(maybe)Does it really take lots of resources to make a game that was "made for VR" in less than a weekend by one guy?
FDev have dedicated VR developers, whom won't be assigned to developing the huge aspirations (if they exist); but needless; right now VR is definitely at the bottom of the list until EDO is where it needs to be.
They do, btw, want VR to be done right, with legs, and in time hope to do so (I asked!)
Tritium's solid since it's mined as ore not sucked up by fuel scoops. The mining refinery puts it in cargo pods so I guess it needs the ship process to unpack those.
Sounds like every tourist trap holiday destination I've ever been to.
Surely the arrows help...
I agree very much with this post. Once you play ED in VR there is no way you can play it without. I do not like playing it without it. I will not play it without it. I agree with the statement that if FD was not going to follow through with it they never should have started it. It's like buying a car and going to pick it up and the dealer tells you we discontinued wheels.

I play ED (and other games) in VR, it is a nice implementation, I'll not disagree. But, in truth, I play much more of ED in pancake, even when we only had Horizons, than in VR. It is good to play in VR, but not, for me, of paramount importance. Not that I'd say no to EDO wholly supporting VR, but I don't honestly expect this to come about.
That's fine all it would take is a simple announcement that they will get back to VR when EDO is squared away.

I wouldn't know, and nor is the game "made for VR" anymore (those logos are gone), and I've also no idea how many people are involved in the VR side of things (I suspect that information isn't public). So I'm going to go with "Yes" because I doubt anything is trivial in EDO now.
FDev have burnt their bridges with that stuff; officially there's nothing going on with further VR development beyond bug fixes. That's a good line to maintain until they're happy we're happy with EDO as a game. In their position I wouldn't say any more, especially in a quotable fashion.
To each his own. I played EDO during the Alpha phase (no VR then) I simply can't stand the game that way . For now I don't play the on foot stuff.
I think that VR has been dropped because the framerate that we have now on foot would be halved. Unacceptable in VR.I wouldn't know, and nor is the game "made for VR" anymore (those logos are gone), and I've also no idea how many people are involved in the VR side of things (I suspect that information isn't public).

Indeed, to each their own.
I also played EDO alpha, and had a ball doing do.
My comment was illustrating that, while I enjoy VR (after playing on early kit in the Trocadero Centre in London in the early 1990's) it doesn't dictate what, or how, I play, possibly as I just enjoy PC gaming, and VR is still very much a niche genre.

What is in VR in EDO is smooth as glass in VR for me.
The on foot parts aren't in VR for a reason.
You may have a point some people have highly addictive personalities, others do not. It boils down to "Know thy self".
Very wise in the latter case; just look at how people kept hitting them over the head with the space-legs stuff from the speculative pre-Kickstarter musings. Conveniently forgetting any blue-sky elements they aren't personally interested in like Big Game Hunting.
sorry but that is nonsense....... well no more than gaming ittself is addictive, or using a wheel or any device, and if you think ALL these things are potentially addictive then that should make the whole thing worrying to you. why single out VR?......
i dont get cold sweats having to go into VR and i do not know anyone who does...... if games stop supporting vr then i will stop playing them but that has nothing to do with addiction and if you have seen anyone struggle with addiction you would understand what a fake comparison you are making is.
