Anyone else feel sick with DK2
- Thread starter Kepler
- Start date
Actually both are listed on wikpedia as different forms of motion sickness. I'll retract that. It's quite a general term though. I guess my point should be better stated that it is not the same as car sickness (which is what I believe most people think it is when they say motion sickness).
It is very similar to simulation sickness.
So; sorry about that
I tried the rift at Lave Con and I loved it but there is no way I could fly one for any amount of time I will just feel too ill. A very real shame.
Even the first few days playing elite on normal screens I was feeling travel sick all the time and playing induced headaches. After a while though this stopped and playing was fine.
Last weekend I got an x52 and even just changing joysticks is making me travel sick again. I sometimes think my eyeballs are being pulled out of my head. This is starting to ease off now as I am getting used to the new controls.
I put this down to bad eyes, I have astigmatism.

I am struggling with whether to buy or not at the moment. They are saying any orders placed now will ship from Sept.. I had reservations on how to use a keyboard at the same time, but could probably do without text messaging anyway as I can't touch type. My remaining reservation is how easy it will be to set it up to work as I believe there is some technical fiddling to do.
I have a i5 CPU with gtx770 2Gb gpu, 8 Gb ram, would that be sufficient?

Its not a solution for chatting but I use software called VoiceAttack that allows you to speak commands. Works amazingly with the Oculus Rift. I can deploy landing gear and do any other keyboard action via my own chosen voice commands.
In conjunction with VoiceAttack I use a Hortas X Joystick.

any indication at this stage what the consumer models are likely to cost (approximately) I know?
