Best vr headset ?

Best vr headset and vr gear?

[Hugh J nuss]

The index controllers are by far the best, I don't think anything can come close to natural hand opening and closing to grab and drop objects. The headset is great, I wish it had better resolution, but it was the best at its time. If they make an updated HMD with wider FOV and resolution, I will be the first to buy it.

The wire kind of sucks, but you get used to it

So index isn't wireless?

It is not, but the wire is pretty long, and suspension systems for the wire work great. I just leave mine on the floor because I travel for my job and bring it with me

It's a tragedy for the ages that an ubermensch visionary such as Carmack-sama got into bed with pure evil.

He should have stuck with rocketry.

Okay

The other benefit is the support for 144hz. I don't ever go that high as even a 3080 cant support it at the resolutions I play at. But in most games I can upscale 300% at 120Hz and it feels really good

Okay, I might just get that one then was thinking about oculus/meta but I don't know who owns it. If Facebook creator owns it then I'm stay away from that one.

I think the reverb or the vive might be. Wireless is cool, but you will be limited by image quality. And honestly, the wire really isnt that bIG of a problem once you learn to manage it. I also use a counterweight in the back and run the wire through it to protect it

A counderweight is definitely necessary or your neck will have a bad time

He goes where the real progress seems to be. VR seemed to be the future, (It's part of the future at least, I think.) so he joined up with the fastest rising VR company. I don't think it was his decision to sell to Facebook, but he stuck around for a bit anyway, either to finish contractual obligations or maybe work started. Now, he's focusing on AI. The dude never holds still, and I really admire that about him.

Carmack once said that as long as he has a space to code and pizza, then he's satisfied. It's everyone around him that gets over-ambitious and greedy.

Okay I'll look into it.

Meta is Facebook's new name. Facebook is the name of the social media site now.

I'd say go for Valve Index.

Index v2 is in development and it is going to be wireless.

God I cannot wait. I will be buying it the instant I can. VR fps games are basically all I play now
