it's gonna get delayed/cancelled isnt it? they just arent gonna sell valve RAM for it at reasonable prices in this market.
price is next year
>>728936820why bother with it all? its the same specs as a Quest 3 but will be twice the price.its dead Jim
>>728936820You're supposed to send Valve a blank cheque and guess what? Steamies will eat that deal up with a side of beans.
>>728936997I'd pay 1000 just to not get zucked.
PSVR2 is like $299 now, its cheap as chips
>>728936997It's a fully fledged linux pc instead of running android.Also you get the best and simplest streming
>>728936997not getting zucked is a big positivethe real issue is that the Q4 is going to release in 2027 and absolutely blow the frame out of the water spec wiseits going to be very interesting to see if meta is watching what valve is doing with their wireless solution and work to implement something similar, if they can unjank the pcvr experience with the Q4 the frame is going to be an embarrassment
its gotta compete with the Q3 price wise or its doomed
>>728936997Won't sell more than a few hundred thousand, extremely niche
>>728939817Yeah but that's because they've given up on making first party software and because the Quest 3S which is in some ways better was sold at a loss making it impossible to sell at a higher price
Why would you expect a price to be announced, when they explicitly told you there would not be more information provided until next year? Are you stupid?
>>728940047>the real issue is that the Q4 is going to release in 2027 and absolutely blow the frame out of the water spec wiseThat's not a problem, it's just going to push Valve to make a better frame 2
>>728940492Nobody buys Valve hardware. This is basically a passion project for them where they're deluded to think this will add value to their ecosystem and they need to offer an alternative so a section of their website isn't being dominated by some other company in the same way they seethe over Windows. But if nobody bought the Index and under 1 million buy this because it's too expensive there's little reason to carry on
>>728940047>the real issue is that the Q4 is going to release in 2027 and absolutely blow the frame out of the water spec wiseCarmack left and was the only thing keeping the company above water at severe cost to his sanity, Meta is already getting diverted and distracted by AR.
>>728936820>no OLED screens>no Half-Life 3>useless as a standalone device, needs to PC stream>$1000how could they fuck this up this badly?
>>728940972>no OLED screensdeck didn't have an oled variant eitherits popularity will determine whether they'll make one>useless as a standalone device, needs to PC streamit's literally an arm linux pc that will be able to run both arm and x86 software>$1000this isn't an index, you're making up shit to get mad at
>>728940972oled aren't feasible right now because it's not possible to get enough nits from the panels
>>728941263go to bed Gabe, it cant even play Half Life Alyx as a standalone device.
>>728941305PSVR2 says otherwise
>>728941884if an alyx scene can run on the quest 3 then it can run on the frame with eye tracked foveated rendering
>>728941884It literally can for like 1hr
>>728941953#>FPS dips below 40 FPS in VRthats vomit inducing, headache causing eye cancer. literally unplayable
>>728940047IDK if Q4 is going to be a thing at thing point, wasn't Facebook laying off massive numbers of Meta-verse workers and gutting the VR side of things, to redistribute the money for use in AI slop and AI data centers?
>>728936820The install base is so shit even games that would be perfect candidates for VR can't even be bothered to implement it. The last ace combat had a vr mode, the entire game is first person and inside a cockpit yet they are just ignoring the tech for 8.
>>728936820I just want the Steam Frame to be the norm so that we can have more fucking buttons for VR games. It's an additional dpad, L1/R1, AND select/start.
>>728942164>woooah assets directly imported in a unity scenes with all pbr materials 1:1 has dips when panning aroundstop talking already clown
>>728936820Nah, it's just going to be expensive as fuck and valve bootlickers will still buy it
>>728942716Hello sar! I fuck your bitch mother bloody?
>>728942165there were leaks from internal mails like 2 weeks ago that they were shifting more people over to work on a new gaming focused quest 4 with a release date of 2027finally gutting the metaverse slop doesnt impact the actual vr hardware development, if anything they will have more funds allocated to things that actually matter
>>728940829carmack hasnt been relevant since doom and even back then he only 'borrowed' code written by othersthe rift was already developed when he joined oculus and he never provided the company with anything other than some additional funding
Good wireless streaming is a huge plus, I have a beefy pc and dont want my games to look like shit
