Now we have to worry not only about exclusiveness in PC vs Console, but the HMD side as well? This sort of fragmentation is not going to help VR adoption at all. This doesn't preclude the choice for the Valkyrie project to go onto other platforms. This is just a statement that they would rather have it released on a couple of systems first, and then branch out at later dates - from what I saw at the Fanfest, there is a very strong possiblity that it will come out of the VIVE, but it won't be immediate.

Also this would give you the ability to practice or solo play if thats all you wanted to do with it.

Greetings to all,
I understand the frustration certain player can be among you do not want or are not ready to step to the past a new vision of video games , but it should be can essay+¬er to understand the point of view of CCP , CCP 've always been a company hast worldview of video games that are going to the front, and proposing a Games like Valky , they still go ahead this time , if I understand they are busy with a developer team of Luke So by doing this they provide s able to offer us that we Avont this future vision, a well thought games. While CCP do not want mettrent side of players, on the contrary, they gather , can be that the aujourd eight player do not want to vr tomorrow will ask it ;) Then for the price, too, devont not to panic , prices have decreased strength, all of you who were PC surment would scare the Pentagon to have there 20 years |

Compition is good, i'm just getting tired of all the "Well when SC comes around..." i don;t care! lol
Now if you want to use some flight controls in another game in Valk i'm all for that. But if every other post you name drop, then i want to kick you.
like.. I liked in an older game form the 90's where we could "do a barrel roll!" I was not 100% sure this was possible in valk when i played it at fan fest. Will we be able to pull some interesting space stunts?
see? not that hard, and a legit question

We do continue following development of other headsets but feel there simply isn't anything else out there worth supporting, at least yet. You are shooting yourself in the foot, the face, and nether regions by binding the software to a piece of hardware. If you want this to be a total success, you cannot make it a requirement for people to pay some hundreds of dollars for a giant piece of headgear, to play your game. As much as we like it, we don't plan on buying it. Just like with 3d tv, the concept is great until you find out you have to spend a few hundred dollars on a pair of ugly glasses to watch a 3d movie. It's nice in a theatre, but for everyday play for the masses... No. You are setting Valkyrie up to fail by making it a requirement to spend hundreds of dollars on this hardware. There is a reason people like the other alternatives, such as elite. I built a 10 dollar head tracker, used free community software to configure it, and I had an old joystick that works. It was a very small investment into a game which I had no idea if I would play (I fear my wife would look at me if I had a rift box strapped to my face). I like Valkyrie, I like dust, I like eve. I play eve because I have a pc. I don't play dust because I don't own a PS4 (not worth the 300 to 400 dollar price tag). I won't play Valkyrie if I have to spend 300 to 400 dollars on a pair of glasses which (in my view) would only be used to play Valkyrie. Now would I use them to play elite, yea maybe, but I'm not going to spend the money on technology, when there is both an option of creating the game without it, and also prescidence because there is a game that is about to release that does the same thing as Valkyrie, but does not require you to spend a few hundred dollars for a piece of custom equipment. If it was an option and not a requirement, I'm all for it. It's a requirement, then in my mind, you are throwing your development time away, taking a needless gamble on a whole new game (you can create the game to both use and not need a vr headset.), wasting my time and screwing up what was suppose to be a great addition to ccp's profolio. Keep need to bet on the average PC user, that he could play without additional financial costs. Then the game will be successful. |

I think this is bad idea in terms of balance if alteast on DK2 and especially DK1 it's impossible to be competetitive against a person with a normal fullhd monitor if an engagement happens at range due to current dk's inferior graphical fidelity. it's the same in most games i've tried with the rift indeed, best example would be I guess war thunder, the rift works there and it feels amazing but flying realistic battles leads that your head turning ability is ******** when you play from outside view and if you use a joystick you're dead meat because mouseaim is so damn op, in simulator it feels good and is bit more balanced since most playetrs use sticks but here comes the visibility, it feels like you're playing as a pilot who is so damn nearsihgted that he can tell a church and house apart from 1km high let alone see a pixel wide dot across the skies or actually identify it as an enemy aircraft.
My opinion is that keep it exclusive, do it and keep it that way, that gives competetitive enviroment and ensures the best possible quality for the designated userbase, for example I like using my DK2 to play elite but it's not exactly optimized for it, it works on it and it feels really really great and probly one of THE very best rift experiences so far but it has still some firstworld problems like navigating the menus is a pain in the arse, fitting your ship feels disorienting and the galaxy map is out right broken. and that's because the game's primary function is to be played with screens instead of HMD's.
besides if valkyrie would be playable without rift of equilevant i'm afraid that it would again make the gaming experience for those who prefer monitors to be less extraordinary and that leads to bad reviews and people blapping about how it's terrible for pc but when it's a vr exclusive it elimates all that mambojumbo. and to finalize this blapping: TL;DR I think exclusives are a good thing and should be cherished.
a question for the devs, how do you manage to get 90fps on your DK2, mine is stuck with 75 like it's supposed to I just dropped my request to join the alpha or prealpha tests, would love to test out my X-55 with it ;) elite is beginning to feel a bit grindy and starcitizen has bad support for this stuff. |

Hey Karuck, myself and Commissar Kate got our hands on DK2s just for this, I hope you can appreciate the irl $ commitment we made on a blind hope.
I guess I'm posting this here to help our chances a bit, having shelled out the $.
Kate and I are different types of gamers, with different gaming preferences. If you had to pick between the two of us, you should pick Kate because of their extensive history of playing flight games. As for myself, I was a flight student in a past life and of course there's the not-so-small EVE affliction of mine.
I also want to let you know that my DK2 doesn't have a serial in the location described in the follow-up survey. Not sure how much of a disqualifier that is, but it can't be helped when there's no sticker (I bought mine second-hand from a classmate in my Maya class).

I can already tell my "thing" will be feedback on barrel roll characteristics. I already love what I saw in the fanfest tournament, and I really want to help get the maneuvering characterists tuned. The boost + slip action in particular, unf.
Confirming I'm a huge flight sim fan here. The Rift is the greatest advancement for flight sims I have ever seen so far, I can't wait to see what the future holds for them, HMDs and Eve: Valkyrie. I simply can't get enough of how easy it is to track your targets with a HMD and if the aircraft is equipped with it, the ability to look at and lock targets that are not right in front of you is amazing. Just like you can do in real world fighter aircraft.
I have used TrackIR (head tracking) for years but after using the Rift there is just no comparison. It's just sort of awkward turning your head a littlebit and trying to keep your eyes on your monitor directly ahead of you with TrackIR. Not to mention the limited FOV the camera has for head tracking that I have to deal with. From my experience the Rift is a lot better on the 6dof in cockpit head movement, I guess you could say it's a lot more "fluid" to use.

Karuck, this is a visual representation of the dogfighting dilemma I mentioned previously, and why the best maneuver in a chasing situation is an opposite roll.
The white cone is the defending ship's vulnerability area. The red circle is where the attacking ship wants to be.
In this example, I'm turning and trading speed for maneuverability, and swinging my cone way out and away from Kate as much as possible. To give chase to that cone, Kate would roll outward and have a wider arc, which allows her to maintain more of her speed in exchange for less maneuverability.
The goal of chasing this way isn't to always have a constant firing angle, but to be in the best position for when I straighten out from my roll.. There's no real alternative in atmospheric flight, since rolling inward and chasing the ship directly would cause overshoot.
In my opinion, this scenario expresses balance between ships in terms of speed, maneuverability, and gun range. Sure, this is atmospheric flight, but it's a starting point in exploring Valkyrie.
You should pick us both.
PS: this is the type of visual feedback you can expect from us.

I have very limited control over who gets selected for the alpha, and when :) But it's great to see how excited you are for the game.
To increase your chances of being selected, you can find the DK2 serial in this spot by sliding the cover off the cables:

Hi, Karuck! Quick question. I've signed up for the alpha with a serial and everything, but I'll be upgrading my computer soon for a properly immersive experience. The question: how do I change my responses or indicate that I'll be upgrading? Just re-do the questionnaire? I assume you're also using technical specifications to ensure a broad range of machines for testing.
