Any Word On How Reverb G2 Works with DCS?

[goofey]

Am planning on buying the Reverb G2 when it becomes available in my area. Just curious though, has anyone tried it? Wondering how well it will work.

Thanks.

hopefully it won't be to hard to set up, i've ordered mine in June, so it should be delivered somewhere this month, i'll post whenever it arrives

Good luck with it when it comes!

I have one. It's got some quirks I am trying to resolve if you see my post. In general it works well and image quality is like 1080p in the sweet spot. Overall very happy coming from cv1.

Was curious about the earphones. I know that you can remove them. I am kind of partial to my own earphones which are the over-the-ear type. Do you think that I could remove the Reverb ones and use my over-ears? Or would that be prevented by the headset?

I have the cv1 1080TI getting 45FPS ground 60 to 90FPS high alt
If you can tell me please do you notest the FPS still good or drop very much.. i dont use steam VR because i dont like it its very bad.. use the Oculus tray tools.. but with the G2 steam vr is required for run??? or windows mixed reality is enough?!!?
Thanks

Ok i finaly got mine, setup was easy, plug and play. Steam VR an Mixed Reality Portal has to be running unfortunately. Framerate wise i got the same performance as with the Rift S. The resolution is a big step up, i'm able to read all instruments without needing to zoom in.
As for the build in headset, Super quality, but i rather play with my own headset, and i cant figure out if i can remove the mounted one.
But overal, it's the best HDM i've used so far.

I don't have it yet but I read online that you can take the headphones off.

Also, can I ask what card you are using? I have an NVidia 2060 Super. Wonder whether mine would work.

Glad you got yours. I think I will preorder, if my Video card is any good.

I don't see a way to completely remove the headphones and it feels like pulling them off would break their swivel lugs. They do fold back 90 degrees to the rear though so I think you could wear your own headphones instead.

I have DCS installed outside of Steam Library. With G2 I find myself on the MiG wing every time I launch the game in VR. I am unable to launch the stock missions (I get a message about the game being out of focus) but I can launch the P-47 mission I created myself. The cockpit looks very good though.

My findings here. I also have very specific Elite:D & Star Wars Squadrons settings to eliminate all stutter in these. DCS still has ground proximity stutter.

I'm using a 2060super aswell at the moment, i'ts doable, but not ideal. So i'm going to look out for a good deal on a 3080.
As for the headphones not being removable, this is the only thing that let me down with this HDM, for the rest the G2 is an insane upgrade coming from the Rift S

You can play in complete Darkness but only lose Z-Axis. IR LED do not help with this headset. Remember that Disabling Hotplug may help which gets reset on each update now as it cleans old files out.

Jeez. You actually need a $700 graphics card to make this unit run well? Isn't there another alternative? All I have is a 2060 Super, so I guess I'm miles off of what is actually needed.

Depends on some Games. You need most things on lowest which might feel against intuiition but it performs better than others by this which used Ultra. Nothing wrong in upgrading GPU even by secondhands.
