I plan on making a game when my oculus dev kit arrives, but I also plan on playing a lot of VR games with it. Bit of a niche hobby though so I am inviting anyone with a HMD to join my clan of 1 :D

Sounds good! Once we all got our Rifts we should all get on a game together of D3BFG. That would be pretty cool.

In the future, I think it will be important for games/applications to push the enabled peripherals to the server, so servers can lock out users who dont have HMDs or tracker guns etc, just to ensure a level playing field.

I agree. There will be distinct differences in the capabilities of players playing with
a) keyboard/mouse
b) seated VR
c) standing 360 VR
d) natural motion VR

Not to mention - separation of gun, 6DOF head tracking, etc. It may be quite complicated to sort out and enforce all these controller classes for fairness.

We have a dedicated server. So when you are good to know and know what you want, let me know!

Regards,
Neil

Hopefully we'll be getting units any day now. What are the most Rift-capable games going to be right away?

I also started a steam user group you are all welcome to join :D
