VanjaB Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 http://www.oculusvr.com/blog/john-carmack-joins-oculus-as-cto/ Well now, hopefully this will this bring us one step closer to Oculus Rift support in DCS! :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuky Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I'm not sure how specifically this guy will bring OR closer to support in DCS (I would think it would get there eventually anyway as long as lot of DCS players start using them and "demand" ED to support it :D)... but alright... I'm all for it anyway as I can't wait to buy retail version and try it flying in DCS! No longer active in DCS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have been trying to steal him from iD software for ages, even if he never even writes one line of code for Oculus VR the marketing from having him on board will make companies take notice of this new tech. The developer kit version that you can order now is about 350$ I think. The consumer mass produced version would probably be even cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuky Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Nope... never heard of the guy... guess this shows how much a nerd I am not :D I don't want to get the developer kit, I want a retail version... I want it to be so awesome that when I fly and fight I keep swearing and saying just how awesome that thing is! :) Check 6 will get a new meaning :D No longer active in DCS...
