Many VR Elite players are also into Flight sims. It's a natural fit for VR and owners of Hotas.
What games have you tried? Do they have settings that would allow you to make it more Arcady when showing someone VR.
IL-2 BoS got a VR update. I'm thinkung about picked by that one up. How are the menus?
Since you moved to start a new thread discussing flightsims in vr (good idea), I'll transfer my post from the other thread as such regarding my thoughts on War Thunder and BOX as they call the combined theaters now, first:
"Even in sim mode, I find War Thunder a little arcade-like. Gajin bought rights to the original IL2 engine and heavily modified that. It's a 12 year old engine. Il2 BOS and newer theaters is the creation of merging 1C and 777 studios(Rise of Flight). The FM is excellent and the recently added VR is the best in a flightsim ATM, imo. I would say the best FM of a WW2 aircraft is likely DCS's P51 since they own a real one and it is the bases for what they call their PFM or professional flight model."
--adding re your question:BOX menus are all easy to read as are all the others. I fly them all and don't play outside VR. Like ED, the immersion is paramount for me.
DCS World has the best flight models and seems to be preferred in VR (many RL pilots over there) despite being at an early stage of implementation. Hard to read some gauges in some aircraft and tough to get more than pd 1.5 even on high end hardware. DCS has a robust forum of people comparing settings (like here) in order to get the best VR settings for any given hardware.
Aerofly FS2 looks as good as BOX in VR (maybe better) all settings cranked up. It's early in it's development so only a few areas to fly in and nothing to blow up, of course. Flight models and controls are pretty good, but not fully incorporated at this early stage.
Anyone remotely interested in flying will, I think, enjoy all of these at some level. It depends on how you like to play which one you might prefer the most, though. My personal rating in that regard.
For VR implementation:
1-BOX and Aerofly FS almost a tie
2-War Thunder (a very close second)
3-DCS ok, but lots to improve on
For Flight model:
1-DCS no doubt in my mind
2-BOX
3-WT in sim mode
4-AeroFly (incomplete)
For gameplay:
Highly subjective. Depends on how you play, but they are all great fun in their own way.
Since you are showing an interest in BOX, I add this. I have been flying sims since FS1 by subLogic and have flown most of them. BOX is an excellent sim in VR and the community is all abuzz over it having been added. I doubt you would be disappointed with it.
I would add that despite DCS's being at the bottom of my VR ranking, my love of helos makes it my number 2 go to in VR for that reason alone. It is truly sublime in that regard and it is the only one I would call a simulator in every sense of the term.
From my perspective having them all in VR is a plus for any VR gamer and we are lucky to have them. My hope is that 1C/777 will heed the outcry to bring Rise of Flight to VR, then I will be able to fly in WW1, WW2 and WW3 (let's hope not) scenarios.
