Holy guacamole, it been years since I played Dirt Rally VR and apparently I did not retain my VR legs for it. I can fly around for hours in Squadrons but I had to emergency kill my first race on Dirt 2.0. Guess I am going to need to ease myself back into it.

Cross post from the SW:SQ thread, but I’m running an Oculus Quest on the PC using link and Steam VR and it is the most frustrating poo poo.

Inevitably, after a while, this game starts to stutter. Not a *ton,* but frequently enough that it messes with the experience.

This shouldn’t happen, I’m running a 2080ti. Is the game that hosed or am I missing something super obvious and/or obscure?
Does this happen with other games? I was having issues with games running fine for a while and then progressively getting worse and it turned out my machine was just overheating and needed the dust cleaning out.

Oculus hardware is busted with Star Wars Squadrons, they need to patch it on their end.

Lol many people have been talking about exactly this very recently, read the thread!

1. Squadrons VR performance is fuuuucked, wait for a patch

2. If its fine at first but runs poo poo after awhile, it may be overheating. When was the last time you cleaned it? Else, see above.

Who ITT has a vive pro? What do you think of it? Pulling the trigger on one in the next day or so.

Also I would be really interested in a thread poll on what headset everyone is using. I'm mad curious 🤔

I do, I love the poo poo out of mine. The bump in resolution is frankly amazing compared to the original Vive, and it's light as hell to boot. Sound quality's perfectly serviceable but nothing fancy. And I say that admitting I'll be replacing the onboard earcups with VR Ears when those arrive in the mail later in the year. If you're worried about the cable, wrap it in any commonly-available cable protector and never worry about it breaking underfoot or knotting up again.

It seemingly totally random as to who it works for as there are a bunch of people including me who it is running absolutely fine for.

Im below the minimum specs(1060/i7 6700k) and it runs fine for me despite the occasional stutter and I am having an absolute blast.

Is there a date for the g2, and is it too late to pre-order? I was thinking about buying it, and selling either that or the index to me friend depending on which one I liked the best.

And no crossbuy

I think the game looks fine for a cross-platform VRBR, and I think construction makes more sense here than it does in Fortnite (both because it's more limited and because this game's all about every surface being climbable), but $30 for a multiplayer-only game in VR with no crossbuy is just the dumbest goddamn thing.

Quest here, looking at the Quest 2. I've owned every Oculus headset aside from the Rift S, and used the Vive, Vive Pro, Index, and Odyssey+. I just keep going back to how good the Oculus controllers are, and I generally prefer mobile VR to tethered whenever I have the option, but I can't deny the G2 is looking very interesting.

Had an HP WMR, sold it, got a Rift S when they came out, sold it a year later and got a Quest.


Waiting on first adopter bugs to be smoothed out on Q2 before picking it up.
