VR?

Will Conan Exiles support VR (Oculus Rift)?
It would be amazing.

Ditto. I've basically stopped buying games that don't offer VR support. I just can't bring myself to play on a flat, empty screen any more when I could BE there.

I would hope so, it uses the same engine as Ark doesn't it? And Ark has native VR support (not amazing but still something)
Anyway if all else fails there's always vorpx.

I just hope the game renders true stereoscopic 3d and geometry.
The only other important point would be a freelook mode that is unhitched from your sword/shield (kind of like arma's freelook)

Like Veraxus above, i just cant bring myself to play non-vr stuff anymore, its too painful not being there (despite the low HD res)
I'll be playing Conan in VR with or without native support (using vorpx) if that's not your bag then go ahead and the enjoy flat screen past. Us VR-heads will be living it up in the future, will send you postcards in 360 though ;)

Why the hate dude... tire of seeing VIVE fanboys rag on Oculus Rift... Facebook helped fund it not make the headset...

HTC couldn't make their own so they made screens and valve did the rest. hahahah

I am actually with Microsoft on this one. Their VR looks alot like Sony's and Sony defines where high tech is going. Really.

For example, Blue Ray wasnt the only high def option, it was Sony single handedly choosing Blue Ray that made the choice for everyone else. They know the score. Functionality.

Not always with Microsoft on everything that is for sure. After reading my thoughts on Windows 10 you would think I hate them.

Also the x box controller sucks Im getting the Steam controller asap. Hope its better.

To the topic, if VR is actually good i bet this game gets it eventually.

So about VorpX, I guess it will only give you 360 view or is there head motion tracking as well?

depends on the game... some do have 3d stereo and headtracking but with most multiplayer games it isn't advised to use because most anti cheat software won't allow it because it injects its code into the program like a hack does.

On a separate note I did actually get Conan in VR sort of.... you can download the unreal epic game launcher and download the modding tools. In the game you can turn on the vr plugins and sort of get it to run. I was able to get into one of the test worlds and mess around but it was very basic and in first person or third person. I think if someone that new enough about unreal could modify the blueprints and intergrate motion controls into the game but not sure how well the full campanign mode would run. The biggest problem I saw was that the menu system was unusable in the state it was in because it didn't render correctly to the headset. It was tough to create the character and the cutsceens were impossible to view. I ended up starting the game engine play in flat mode saving it and then going into vr.
