Thoughts on Rift S?
I was watching some guy using vr in assetto Corsa 1 doing drift touge using his T300 racing wheel.
It looked amazing in first person.
But not sure about the whole motion sickness in such a fast pace game .
Anybody tried similar?

I'm sad. I stand to be corrected but it seems a little lacklustre. Screen is better, but lower res than the Samsung Odyssey+ and dropped to 80Hz and no physical IPD. If Samsung released better controllers and some comfort adjustments (which can be achieved with the VR cover and headband, but one shouldn't need that) it would be a winner.
For now, my ideal headset (achievable, let's not talk 8K per eye, 160 FOV, foveated rendering, etc.) is the Odyssey screens with the Rift comfort and touch controllers. Rift S probably has the comfort and the contollers, but not the screens
The Rift S is....a step....in some ways it's a step forwards in some ways backwards.......I guess it's a decent option for a newcomer to VR who wants really decent inside out tracking and controllers.
It's a big deal to make the setup so mach easier. While still having great controllers(WMR I'm looking at you) and great tracking(WMR -__-)
For anyone else it's not really an option for upgrading....basically anyone who already has a VR setup has no point buying a Rift S.
(EDIT: I see the price is $600. I picked up the Odyssey+ at $300, so can't complain there, even if I spend $50 on comfort mods)
Consider the Odyssey's RRP is (was) $499 ....perhaps we will see some specials on the Reverb as well in the future.
The $650 version intrigues me more though...I need the wipeable facial interface for work. By HP's own press release, the Reverb is aimed for commercial use...for my industry the increased resolution, comfort and ease of setup hit's the spot exactly. Makes the Vive Pro looks ridiculous (especially at local prices)
Foviated compression will handle that.True... now a wireless version with those res screens would be great for content delivery, but I guess you couldn't stream that wireless without heavy compression.
Foviated compression will handle that.
But both those technologies (Foviated Rendering and Foviated Compression) relies on dependable eye tracking...which is progressing great, but it's not dependable yet.
That will be true Gen 2 HMDs - wider FOV, Higher Res, Eye tracking and all the Foviated tricks.....basically exactly what Micheal Abrash was explaining at Oculus Connect 3 and again at OC 5 last year, but he basically gave us a prefect insight to how far their internal teams are faring with that tech.
I would actually strongly recommend the Rift S, nothing beats the Oculus Ecosystem and Touch controllers. I have an Oculus Go (which I'm thinking of selling), with the Original Rift and the improved screen and text readability is something I've looked forward too.
