What do you consider mass market? Quests already outsell Xbox.

It's not that big of a hassle with UE5. Even if you have added your own code. It's mostly just added features and not breaking changes.

Lol, no idea what that was supposed to be, but clearly some kind of error in the headline. We'll actually be seeing games use this sooner than that. The Marvel game they showed is supposed to come out next year. It's pretty easy to upgrade from previous versions of UE. And if you're...

"Released", but it's early access. The sound details, for what's done so far is superb. I'm looking forward to this, I probably won't get it until the finished release though. Also it's just made by one guy, which is amazing.

That would make it easier for them, but they could use 2 cables if they really wanted to, one driving each screen. It might be a bit beyond Pimax's capabilities, or what they want to take on, but it's definitely doable.

Are you installing to a Hard Drive or an SSD? Also what CPU do you have? Steam compresses the shit out of downloads and hits your IO and CPU hard while it downloads them. Pretty much every other store downloads the file full speed then uncompresses it after. Steam does both at once, and...

Do NOT use wifi devices. If you're going really get into it and do a lot of devices use z-wave and/or zigbee devices along with a HUB that they all connect to and does all the automations. There are a bunch of different hubs you can get, but the best are either building out your own with...

Ok, to each their own I guess. I completely disagree, especially in regards to the lighting. It looks like decade old game tech with more polygons and higher resolution textures. Similar to Starfield.

What specifically do you think looks good in cryengine and this game's graphics?

Looks like it's still the same engine or some other version of CryEngine. The graphical detail is decent, but the lighting is clearly last gen. Skin and other textures look extremely flat. Looks like a cool game though.

Almost all mice use nearly identical switches for left and right click which is usually what ends up breaking, especially if you're hard on them. There are some mice that use optical switches. I would look into that. I use a Logitech G502X that has them.

This reads like a paid propaganda piece.

Their best deals are in-store-only CPU motherboard combos. Usually everything else usually matches amazon at best. The last couple computers I built I bought the CPU and motherboard from MC and pretty much everything else from amazon.

Yeah it's definitely a double edged sword. I want Pimax to succeed because I love their ideas. So far the end results haven't been worth the trade offs for me. I'm still happy they're around and pushing the envelope though.

I don't think it has anything to do with current GPUs. I think they can't actually build it. The parts can't be made or manufactured, or built at a reasonable price, etc. Pimax is the essence of a child enthusiast turned into a company. Any cool idea that pops into their head they attempt...

I thought it was just another Electronic Arts game to not care about but in this case EA = Early Access, not Electronic Arts. This looks really cool. Amazing what the game dev tools today allow one guy to do.

That's the nice thing about the new Quest headsets. You just put them on and play, anywhere. I would recommend trying out BoneLAB. It's very much a VR game and not just a game made to work in VR like HL:A is IMO.

I don't see Fallout 76. 👿

If you're talking about the tiny box the whole point of it is it doesn't require any special infrastructure. It uses the max power a 15 amp outlet can provide, basically like a space heater. You just plug it in and you're good. The point of it is you have AI services in your home, no...

The federal government has given out over a half trillion dollars since the 1990s to ISPs to "expand their networks to underserved areas" which they used to buy up competition. Countless local governments have made deals with ISPs that give them exclusivity.

The small town where I group up of under 2k people has had fiber since the late 2000s. They've always had really fast cable internet and a half dozen DSL providers. And they were very cheap back when when I lived there. Now they also have multiple wireless options that are pretty fast, not...

The Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It's not a big truck. It's a series of tubes. And if you don't understand, those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and it's going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that...

I like the idea, but I find net neutrality legislation hard to support. The idea sounds good. All traffic should be treated equally on the internet, so everyone and every company gets an even playing field. But you know the actual law is going to be 1000 pages of bullshit with loopholes...

Yeah I wouldn't give up VRR for BFI. But the BFI in this has a wide range it can be set to compared to most monitors that don't have it or at best have 1 or 2 fixed frame rates. So that's one step closer to simultaneous VRR BFI. Hopefully it's in the works.

That's what active 3D glasses did. If it was on the actual display there aren't any advantages over strobing the backlight, only disadvantages.

I find it ridiculous and I like to pop in for the occasional chuckle. I don't care enough to actually watch a youtube video on it though.

Does that actually work well? I heard it didn't because windows doesn't handle hotspots very well.

I'm cautiously pessimistic. Maybe it will be good, but it will probably be disappointing.

It's only for wireless connection from your headset your PC (it doesn't even work wired), since it runs directly on the headset you have to buy it on the Quest store. If you had a Pico headset you would have to buy it on their store, etc. The one on Steam is different.

That's also what I use. IMO it's easily the best. It isn't free though.

Yeah when the Q2 is plugged in it stays in a range around there, just make sure you plug both ends of that cable in or it won't get enough power to charge and slowly drain. Also you should see if steam link works any better, you just download it from the quest store, it's free, then turn on...

Yeah that should work. Assuming your stutters are caused by your wifi and not your PC or the game choking. You could also try out SteamLink and see if that works better than air link.

I think the idea is the Xbox would be more like an android phone. Despite other apps and appstores existing on android, people still overwhelmingly use the google play store and all the google apps, so the more android phones sold the more money google makes. They might lose some money to...

Like it was dead on arrival? If something is DOA return it to the store and let them handle it. Absolutely do not contact the manufacturer and go through any of their BS.

It used to have a game mode exactly like the DayZ one you play. I guess they scrapped that part of the game in 2018 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_Survive

Back when I played (almost 10 years ago) H1Z1 was almost an exact copy of DayZ. Maybe it's changed since then, but I haven't played either in forever. Have you played it?

I played it when it was a mod a long time ago. It was fun for a while . There are/were actually a lot of games like it that kicked off when it got big as an Arma mod. H1Z1 was probably the biggest clone, then there were numerous spin off genres and games.

It's basically a cloud database. It's nice for hobbiests because you can use it for free and you don't need a server or anything really. I used it for a few things on my website. Sharing builds for Smite, a chat bot, and a thing that let's you watch youtube videos together. I never stored...

It's competition keeping prices low. There are more games than a single person can play, even if you just count AAA titles. Set the price too high and people just buy other games. Also with things being all digital downloads it significantly lowers the floor for how cheap games can get...

There was a guy did a 360 degree setup with projectors about 10 years ago that was pretty cool. I saw a video of him playing the new (now canceled) Unreal Tournament on it.
