Just got my vive installed from black friday deal and damn it is awesome. Have been trying to play with a hotas but it just was not cutting it until i slapped that bad boy on my face then for some reason it just flowed better. And the ships, oh man the scale of these ships is incredible. Worth every dime.

Congrats Commander and welcome to the VR community. :)
 
I went with other, im using the hdk 2 with osvr and at the price and compatibility it has (use any controllers with it etc) it has really impressed me.

I havent tried a rift or vive but it would take a lot for me to consider them £100+ better than the hdk 2.

Would love to know more about how the HDK2 handles ED, for me it's a serious contender.
 
Vive sucks for Elite! And in general the subpar headset! Anything seated - racing, flight or space games, well all seated experiences the RIft is the far better HMD!

Regarding the standing and walking around in a small space: ROFLCOPTER its a uuseless gimmick and will NEVER EVER see a triple A game! it was just a marketing stunt...

One beer too many :)
Much anger in you. A Rift you have.

I can only assume you have never tried it. Room scale, whether on the Vive or the Rift is the future. Once tried, it's hard to accept a seated experience.

As for AAA titles... both Doom and Fallout confirmed for next year

That's what I used to think!. But after finding out the VIve does not have color banding issues, I think I am leaning to get a Vive now!
