Firstly, sorry for the late reply – it has been a busy week!
As I said, I will give you what news I have, be that good or bad, when I have it as I feel that is fair.
The short answer, I am afraid, is I have no other news that what was stated in the previous post: Odyssey will not support VR at launch.
However, I wanted to add some context to this in the hope this will provide some understanding of what that means.
Firstly, we have no intentions of removing VR, or support for it in Elite Dangerous.
With regards to the Odyssey statement, there are as you can imagine, a multitude of factors in play when looking at how the VR experience could transfer to the new mechanics and features being implemented for this expansion. Hence why it will not be supported at launch.
We are exploring many options of how this could work without compromising the quality of the VR experience.
If / when we can find a way of doing this, we will of course communicate that.
I understand the desire from the VR community and I am listening to you.
I will of course come back when I have more information on this.
