UPDATE: EDO will now launch with VR support for ships & SRVs, and basic 'projected flatscreen' access to Legs content. They have re-voiced their desire to take Legs to a quality level post-launch.

Hello lovely devs!
Please consider releasing an experimental VR branch for Odyssey when the time comes. This could be made available through the current launcher.
Potentially it could allow for:
Given community disappointment about the VR announcement I suspect there would be a lot of tolerance for 'basic' interim solutions to the character issue.
Such a branch would keep a huge swathe of the existing VR community happy. It would placate the dedicated fans of EDVR who seek it out, while not appearing on the radar of customers seeking a fully realised VR product. (Ideally it could also operate as a genuine testbed for a fuller VR implementation down the line).
I would urge you to consider the possibility.

Hello lovely devs!
Please consider releasing an experimental VR branch for Odyssey when the time comes. This could be made available through the current launcher.
Potentially it could allow for:
- A very basic implementation of VR to be made available without officially launching in the VR marketplace.
- Access to Odyssey flight & SRV content. [?]
- Basic access to character content using the planned 'flatscreen' control schemes. [?]
Given community disappointment about the VR announcement I suspect there would be a lot of tolerance for 'basic' interim solutions to the character issue.
- Possible basic solutions for character gameplay:
- A projected flat screen (as seen in Minecraft VR, Touring Karts etc).
- VR headlook + classic control schemes, for those who have their 'VR legs'.
- The above, but with work done on aspects like guns & UI being attached to headlook.
Such a branch would keep a huge swathe of the existing VR community happy. It would placate the dedicated fans of EDVR who seek it out, while not appearing on the radar of customers seeking a fully realised VR product. (Ideally it could also operate as a genuine testbed for a fuller VR implementation down the line).
