God I hope so. I've found that difficulty reading the menus is the one thing that's stopping me from playing. I'm disappointed it wasn't one of the announced features. I'll be bitterly disappointed if it's not at all in Beta 2.

Michael told me a week or so ago that it would be sorted for Beta 2... Whether that has changed or not in the past week I don't know...

Interesting to know.
I was assuming they were having issues still as I would have expected:

"OR DK2 fully supported!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

...to be in the news letter.

EDIT: Hmmmmm why is the forum adding that space in the eeeeee's :eek:

I'll take that as pretty much confirmed then.

Michael doesn't seem to be the kind of chap who would say something for the sake of it. Most of his posts in here are single sentence 4 to 5 words long if we're lucky! (and one of those words tends to be soon).

here is the $64,000 question:
When is the predicted date of the CV1 release?

and..

is it going to have higher res than DK2?
is it going to have lower than 3ms persistence?
and what is the refresh rate predicted to be?

and

will the new breed of Nvidia cards help in these issues?

sorry for all the questions, but I am really looking into investing in OR and trying to gather as much info/speculation as possible.

Waiting for my OR to turn up. New power supply for me too, and another
R290. This game is costing me a fortune :)

Mate, sell your 290 and order 2 gtx 970,reasons:
-crossfire on radeons are not recommended now for oculus,
-new vr sli mode will help
-price/performance ratio its the wiser option
-integrated controls on the driver for vr, and its only the first version

Chasing the flavour of the day is a losing proposition. Just as Nvidia is now optimizing I strongly suspect that AMD is not far behind. In addition, Crossfire technology has been improving at a good clip in the last year so I suspect that dumping Jones for Smiths is kind of premature and wasteful.

I jut finished watching it and all I can say is "Ok, I'm upgrading to the note 4 tomorrow. When you ship me a gear VR?"

No too thrilled with the 'integrated audio'. I sure do hope the possibility of adding your own cans will still be an option (they do look detachable). And it seems that Frontier was already onto this with their Oculus Rift (Headphones) option :)

They did say during the announcement they can be removed.
