I will have to look into VorpX, if it allows the projected screen to show real 3D it would be quite close to real VR on footTry something via Vorpx or Virtual Desktop - like playing, I dunno, hell, ED on a Cinema screen. Not "awful" by any means.

Don't worry, if not interiors, something else would break deal for many. You just cant please people.
That would be in grainy black & white too .. I guess that could add that - for VR players .. open-onlyFor that "Neil Armstrong" moment.

It can, yes. But it also allows just a cinema display as well.
This kind of rubs me up the wrong way though- its been five years of no new content or balancing for Powerplay, two years since the last proper communication with a coherent plan. People have shown huge amounts of patience and been rewarded with nothing. The same can be said for CQC, seemingly abandoned while the rest of the game marches on and sees improvement.
Its been a month since I asked you about Powerplay, and myself, individual players, groups, Discord / Reddit organisers would dearly love an honest answer about whats coming, if anything. Does FD have any plan for Powerplay at all?
The 'dealbreaker' posts, along with the 'rage quit' ones too, I suppose, are priceless to read and a constant source of amusement for me - possibly because my 7 years old grand daughter's machinations immediately come to mind.
The OP has given me sufficient information to move my decision from "probably not buy' to 'probably will'... sadly I wasn't able to formulate any 'dealbreaker' stance, only be neutral until sufficent was revealed to assist in my decision making.

Amount of people with a VR headset: 1.70% according to the Steam Hardware Survey.
People love to spawn outside of the ship, doing the same things like with SRV before. Because they obviously do not want to see what's behind the cockpit doors FDev decided to focus on spawning like an SRV and have the same functions. And FDEV knows that players are not interested into powerplay or Multicrew or having a squadron size bigger than 500. Players are fine with the current state, so why invest more into current game, when FDev works since 2018 to remodel the SRV to an EVA suite?

In the case of Elite it’s a lot higher than that
that's currently the best possible news for odyssey considering the worst possible news for odyssey. a good compromise.
chances of getting odyssey increasing ... well played!
Why post this? I play Elite externally of Steam, as does my Squadron. We wouldn't even factor in here. That's still nearly 2 million people ON steam, which is far beyond the player base of Elite. I could cut those numbers however I see fit, as could you.
Fabulous news. Now I'll save up for that 3080
aw yeah! that VR compromise sounds perfect to me. just take my money already! take it
great news thank you for the update

This is irrelvant I would have thought. Most of the VR players probably pre-date the game's release on Steam and are accessing the client direct.
But the thing about VR is that it elevates the game to breathtaking levels of immersion. It may have been a bit of a fluke, but its something that has made ED a poster child for the medium and get's people talking about the game.
