Oculus Rift S With DCS World Discussion

Wonder if NDA is lifted. A Birdy gave me some perspective on DCS with the Rift S the other day.

I would pre-order without a sinlge doubt if it had a mechanical IPD adjustment. Have to hate you Oculus for that.

Pre-ordered mine today as well. Will be selling my old one when the new one arrives.

I just pre-ordered mine as well. I'll probably leave my CV1 with my old gamer rig. Let the grandkids play on it... :-)

I'm interested in how it compares to the Odyssey. It's either rift S or reverb for me as the next upgrade. I just let my coworker borrow my rift so he could see if it would be something he is in to.

Good or bad? Its all i need to know for now

I really would like a review of the Rift S in DCS world.

Maybe Wags could do a brief one with pros/cons now when NDA is lifted.

Do you have a rift CV1? Try to move your IPD slider from max to min and tell me how much does it change. Practically nothing. And I have got 70 mm IPD, the same as Luckey who said rift s would have been a problem for software ipd. I do not believe him. Everyone can do this easy test on his CV1. The difference between max and min IPD is unnoticeable. It is just nothing to worry about.

Also are people buying new headphones? I have other headphones but they are Logitech gaming headphones and they are heavy to wear on top of a headset like this.

I do not have headphones but I'll wait to have rift s in my hands before go shopping for headphones. I'd like very much to use a premium headphones set in VR (I love corsair void pro rgb), but I have to do accurate measures on the HMD to be sure a headset like corsair's can be worn without issues. If it won't be possible, I'll go for some earphones (there are good quality ones on the market).

Yea which is why I am also waiting for reviews because earphones would also have to have a mic too if you wanted to talk in multiplayer or use Viacom in DCS. I know for a fact my Logitech g933 headset would be too bulky to wear on top of the rift S. Also I heard Oculus is thinking of coming out with attachment headphones for it.

I have the arctis 7 from steelseries, very lightweight and optimal sound and mic quality!

I use that with also the cv1.

But the cost is so high :(

Does rift s not have an integrated mic? By the way, I use voiceattack with my logitec webcam mic, not the one of CV1, and it works flawlessly, so the lack of a mic would not be a great issue to me.

I almost bought those when I was looking for headsets for PC. The Logitech were cheaper at the time and had better reviews. I also preferred the small USB dongle which made it easy to work with my Xbox X and PS4 pro too.

According to this article it does: https://www.pcgamer.com/oculus-rift-s-review/

You could get earphones for sound and just use the mic in the Rift S.

Probably what I will do. I don't want to wear another headset with headphones in addition to the Rift S.

Yea if it has a mic built in I have a pair of headphones I can use. But I'll wait for reviews first to see how it compares to the odyssey. I may just end up with the HP reverb, that one also does not have an ipd adjuster.

Absolute nonsense. All this based on "your" experience. One unit among thousands. Get a grip mate.

 

The IPD slider has a dramatic effect on many people. Just go to the Oculus forums and look at some of the threads there. Not everyone's eyes are the same width apart but I'm guessing yours are incredibly close together or dramatically far apart that you can see a predator at your 180 which answers many questions.

Makes a huge difference for me. Especially noticeble with the Oculus calibration cross - goes from very sharp vertical lines to complete blurry.

Yes same here.

Considering reviews are posted for it I'll tell you what my source told me. His results in DCS were good. He had an opportunity to compare it directly to the Vive Pro and prefered the image in the Rift S to the Vive Pro. I'm unsure of his IPD so results could vary, but overall impression was enough to choose that over the vive pro. I can only imagine it had to do with the impact full RGB makes on clarity.

No physical ipd adjustment what are these developers thinking? Cancelled my order. Having the ipd exactly dialed is by far the most important thing with any type of optics.:doh:

Well, maybe we are all different. I do not have a monster head or big black fly eyes on both sides of my head, and my ipd is 70 mm. Changing ipd slider has a slight impact on the green cross sharpness during calibration test, but almost no effect during gameplay. This Is my experience. Maybe I'm Just lucky, but I advise to try changing ipd during gameplay to check its impact on you. I've tried It, and as far as I'm concerned I Will order my Rift s with confidence.
