cant anyone who has tried dk2, cv1 and vive put this to bed as nonsense??

I don't understand this post/video. The video is 5+ hours, not watching all that! So what are you saying - are you assuming that what they show of what the player is seeing is ALL that he is seeing? Or do they say something somewhere?

Lol assuming I put the time stamp in correctly it goes right to the point!. They are complaining that they feel too close to the front of the ship and that they can't see things like amount of chaff etc in the forward frame of vision without turning his head. I can on my dk2***

Now they assume (a fair assumption) that they just need to reset the hmd view however if anything it makes things worse. On looking around the player does look roughly in the right spot compared with their headless corpse. They never use the words field of view but it sounds to me like that is the problem.

Don't get me wrong I want to be wrong! I have an April cv1 pre order but right now kicking myself for selling my dk2

*** maybe their ipd was wrong I hope so

Apologies, I was not trying to offend and didn't word that at all correctly. There has been a lot of Vive pre-orderer's out there trying to find anything to debunk the CV1 this week and this is the latest.

Sorry.

Lol no worries no need to apologise and it is fair to say I am a "little" highly strung when it comes to my 2 fanboy topics... VR and ED

"That looks fairly clunky ..."
Nice one Frontier. Why didn't you assist with setup advice for the first VR promotion of ED? Now anyone watching that video review will be very underwhelmed.

Glad this was de-bunked - I had an oh-no moment when I saw the imgur pic.

this got me thinking about the fresnel lenses used in the cv1 and vive, wow the vive has some monster ridges all pictures of the cv1 i see look like smooth glass.
anyone with a vive, are those fresnel ridges visible when your peepers are up close? i would hate that more than a lesser fov. i hope not, i paid htc with paypal to make it less easy for me to back out.
ocd mode.

Lol I read the last bit as "i paid htc with paypal to make it less easy for me to black out"!
