I think Doom 3 demo would suit this particular presentation better. I don't find it tired, gloomy or old - quite the opposite really. Doom 3 demo puts you in a players perspective, shows how a VR game will behave. Emotions like fear often stay with you for longer, not mentioning the adrenaline rush. Would for example, Hiphopgamer be that excited about Oculus if he just wandered around medieval village instead of playing VR Doom? I'm not sure.

I think they should have people play each of the demos for a short time, that way if they don't particularly like FPS or Doom then they'll see what kind of other experiences it can offer and won't have negative feelings about the RIFT because they don't like Doom. In the same way those that are bored just walking around a town and looking at snow will see the Doom action side of it which they may enjoy and have them walking away thinking it's great rather then boring and lame.

I think when the consumer version comes out it should come with a VR demo that has maybe a dozen or so different experiences showing what things are like with it.

Say something like:

1. That town demo with the snow.
2. A small modern block with nigh/day cycling, weather conditions, the sounds of the city etc.
3. A really spacious landscape environment.
4. A tropical rain forest with various life and sounds.
5. Something in space where you can watch the earth.
6. A small racing simulation.
7. A simple closed flight simulation.
8. A small FPS running around a few very detailed rooms and tunnels shooting whatever.
9. Some kind of dark amnesia like thing with spooky audio etc to explore.
10. Some kind of in your face/coming at you interaction demo
11. A 3rd person kind of advernture course thing to run through.

You could probably list 100 things that would feel very different from each other on the RIFT but I think under 12 would do. I don't think it would be too resource consuming to make as they'll only be small demo's so there wont be too much content to create and they don't have to be super detailed unless ofcourse its a demo showing all that detail. It will just showcase a range of different experiences you'll have with the RIFT rather then people having to wait till they get that type of game or software for it.

Someone might think it'll only really be good for FPS games or something and isn't interested in getting one as they don't like FPS but then they go to their friends house and try these demo's (or in a store somewhere) which are nothing like the experience they would have running around tunnels shooting things and they go "WOW I never thought there might be something like that with it" and want one themselves.

And I know i'd also just have alot of fun experience all the different demo's just like I do when there's a new 3DMark benchmark :D

Hmm missed that post, limiting framerate doesn't eliminate tearing as it doesn't make sure the frames are syncronized with the screen refreshes like vsync does. Sure you may limit it and not see any tearing, you can also play without limiting it and no vsync and see how tearing it all depends on your particular hardware and software.

On my system more then half the games i've played tear and tear ALOT if I don't enable vsync and it annoys the hell out of me, on the RIFT the problem and annoyance would just be magnified as having the image so much larger it will be much easier to see and notice tearing. I think it looks terrible on a monitor and couldn't imagine having to put up with it on a display that seems lifesize.

Limiting framerate it may seem like it's not tearing but there could easily be small tears you simply can't notice on a monitor and at that resolution which when played on the RIFT could be very noticable.

I think they had 3 easily switchable demos for CES. One was a medieval village, one was some sort of spaceship interior, and one was a FPS type demo. I think....

It seemed like the primary demos were a UE3 tech demo, Unreal Tournament 3 (?), and less frequently, a basic Unity3D demo.

Same here! Well, all the kickstarter backers are supposed to get DooM3:BFG, and then I imagine there should be some additional content available through the Oculus site (such as the unreal engine, and unity demos). Something on DVD would be much appreciated for those of us that have pretty crappy internet connections :cry:

That is an interesting article. Some subtle details that you don't hear in other articles. Sounds like a lot of their tracking software is hot off the press - just in time for CES.

It was kind of fun when Palmer removed the mike from the wrong interviewer xD, seems like they figured it out though, haha.

Nice interview, and waaaaaai I should have been there! I'd have prepped my face with super glue so they couldn't remove the Rift after I had put it on! (without a scalpel anyway!)

The press is going, pardon my French, totally bonkers. Did you guys ever expect a return to the headline "Virtual Reality is Here"? Even the editor of Gizmodo, after nearly a year of radio silence on the project speaks up this week: https://twitter.com/joeljohnson/status/ ... 4579988480

I hope you don't sick of it, but thank you Palmer Lucky and John Carmack for bringing such a crazy dream back to reality, and many thanks the rest of you, nameless and still active at this forum for working diligently and thanklessly on your projects. It may seem a bit early too celebrate, but devkits are being made, DIY is in full force, and as long as people buy smart phones, Virtual Reality indeed appears to be coming back!

And another review from Dvice :

http://dvice.com/archives/2013/01/heads-on-with-t.php


it's rare to see such an amount of super positive reviews for a product (that is only in the dev stage on top of that) usually there are always a few "meh not impressed" articles. :mrgreen:

I meant that turning vsync off effectively eliminated it from my sight. Ie, i don't notice it as much and it certainly doesn't bother me. The amount of input lag it generates renders many, many games completely unplayable. I mainly play FPSs, you'd think i'd notice it more with vsync off. But as everyone is different, i think it should remain right where it is, an option.

I disagree with the idea that a larger field of view screen would make tearing more noticeable. I think its the opposite actually. With a larger FOV, more of the screen is away from your direct center, decreasing the chance that a tear would occur where you were looking. In addition, with the Rift's larger vertical FOV (as im told), the likelihood is even less. I use a 46" 3DTV at just under 1 meter, giving me an 83'sih FOV when sitting back in my chair and closer to 90 when sitting up, perhaps thats part of what forms my opinion.

With input response time being so critical for head tracking, i can't imagine why it would be encouraged to be set on. What im most afraid of is developers forcing it on, thinking that best while using high end hardware to develop their game on and leaving no option for the user. The option should ALWAYS be there, that much i know. Some games have a half second or more of input lag with vsync on and lower end hardware i believe magnifies the effect.

The next "graphics plateau", so to say, brought about by the next consoles, should allow PC devs to stretch their graphical wings again and we may find ourselves again upgrading every 6 months instead of every year or two just to play games with a smooth framerate. It would be nice, for those that don't have a ton to spend on hardware, to have the option to disable vsync which should greatly help to maximize the amount of time they can use each hardware upgrade.

tearing would be real bad on rift not only would part of the screen be out of time sync but warped completely incorrectly.

We got touchscreens, motion sensors, the tablet revolution, body-hacking… but we never got our cyberdecks. Until now. The Oculus Rift actually delivers on the promise, and then some.

This is my favourite quote:
DVICE wrote:I found that the most unnerving bit was that I expected to see myself when I looked down. The demo (a passive level from Infinity Blade) featured gently falling (and very stereoscopic) snow in a medieval village, and it was vaguely surprising to hold out my hand (in real life) and then not see it there in the virtual world. It was equally surprising to hold out my hand and hit a computer monitor which my eyes were 100% certain was not there. It was like, "why is there an invisible computer monitor in front of me?"

I really liked the part where the guy from The Verge was testing it and he was walking under a doorway in that spaceship or whatever it was and kinda slowed down because he felt like he was going to hit his head. Really made me excited even more because I think we are looking at a whole new type of gameplay experience with the Rift.

I had considered the warping but i can't see the shape of the tear or any acceleration of the tear line from the lenes changing my opinion that vsync should be optional. Not even a little bit... but i haven't tried it.

I don't see how the tearing would affect the warp. Whatever line is currently being scanned across the LCD will always have the correct distortion applied to it.

Hi Guys!

I just got back in yesterday afternoon from a no-sleep night before (from some other timezone). As shown on MTBS' front page, we completed our lengthy interview and Rift demo with Palmer Luckey...in 3D. I can get it up for Monday, if you like. There were a lot of immersive tech things at CES that may tie-in well with the Rift.

Regards,
Neil

My favorite was even before that guy got to test it he kept inching his hand towards the rift and then Palmer had to keep hitting his hand away

IIRC they've said in some interview that they'll pack as much content into the devkit as possible so developers can see what can be done. Even an in-house engine.
