All Vive has to do now is come in at sub $500 and they've won.
Why the fuck would the final product cost twice as much as the dev kit? You're supposed to do it the other way around.

Probably, dude. Especially if they made comments like that. Multi-million dollar companies talk with each other all the time. Facebook/Oculus are probably working rather closely with HTC/Valve so they can work together to corner a new market.
I could be wrong, and I'll eat my words if I do. But realistically HTC probably knew the price the moment Oculus decided on it.

honestly, if the OR is really great, wouldn't it be better than a large TV costing over a grand?
Even without the VR functionality like moving your head around. Only issue I see is, does the OR do a good job of ensuring that your brain doesn't realize its looking at an image 1 inch away? Will people end up near sighted as fuck from using this ?

I am wondering if even the same gen will be better and cheaper if one waits for the 2016 holiday season.
Fatal flaw:
The Oculus software hates your freedom. It is not free as in freedom.
Minor flaw:
By calling it the "Consumer Kit", the product further corroborates the stereotype of the passive and powerless who willingly submit to the powers that be. It should be called "Citizen Kit" or "Mass-Produced Kit" instead.
>>52270727
what the fuck
you need a 3000 euro computer to use this shit?
>>52270731
The lenses make it look like you are looking into a large room. Virtual cinema screens are fun.
>>52270574
Even $500 is too much for the average consumer.
>>52270578
First they introduced the dev kits which were relatively cheap. Lots of devs got on board. Development on ports has been underway for a few years. Everyone is excited.
Today Oculus announced the final product which is so much out of reach for consumers that developers won't be selling many copies of their games. This means developers have been investing in technology not a lot of people will be getting anytime soon.
I think Playstation VR is having a blast today. Not only will that platform be cheaper and more popular, all the devs who have been making Oculus games will simply port to PS4.
VR of PC can still happen, but not with this price point and not with this approach. Clunky hardware, too many wires, terribly complicated setup, and not the price ($599 or €699).
>>52270730

More like €1000. You need to run your games at 90fps not one screen but two (2x 1080×1200).
>>52270771
C-can I suck yours? I'm quite experienced with sucking my own and I'm confident in my dick-sucking skills.

If it didn't have lenses, you'd have to focus at a tiny monitor a few centimeters from your eyes. That's somewhere between extremely uncomfortable and plain impossible.

It's not as easy as you think. Especially if your game uses DirectX and C#, it will be impossible to do it.
>VR of PC can still happen, but not with this price point and not with this approach. Clunky hardware, too many wires, terribly complicated setup, and not the price ($599 or €699).
It will happen, people are buying rifts and people are releasing games for it. Not everyone is poor and setup doesn't look bad.
>2160×1200 90 Hz
Just a reminder that any game at 45 fps and below will cause eye cancer. Better have a PC capable of not even dropping from 70 fps at any point or hilarity will ensue.

fucking idiots.
they spent YEARS lowballing everyone and saying it would be around $350. now the vive could potentially cost less than the rift.
am i really expected to believe that oculus have all that fucking facebook money and they couldn't subsidize the cost of the headset? nobody's going to adopt at that price, the rift is as good as dead in the water

>>52270914
I'm so fucking mad right now. I backed the kickstarter for a DK1, but changed my mind at a last minute and backed a small cash amount without a reward, fully intending to get a rift a few weeks later when ordinary preorders opened instead, and I did.
That tiny decision, and even though I still did support their kickstarter, now cost me $1100.
>>52270933
>t-t-thanks zucker
>discounted $100 version with facebook ads every few random millisecond, not noticeable to conscious mind

>>52270902
I was talking about Oculus implying that you need a i7 to run it.
>>52271053
I think the hardware reqs are fine, but they have to recognize that due to that the rift itself cannot be expensive at the same time.
The only good reason I see here, is that this is an advanced beta testing, and they dont want widespread adoption or many people would be pissed off.
They want people with the best systems to beta test this first, after which, they'll lower the price and claim some new "update" is allowing for slightly lower specs to work, maybe.

>>52271023
It's not even just $599. You apparently need to spend another $700+ dollars for a fucking 970 and Intel's latest CPU to run 1080p screens plastered on your face "optimally".
Keep spending, good goy.
This is a scam of the century.
to be honest Id rather have good VR and more expensive rather than shitty cheap VR
emerging technology is always pricy
>>52271146
I think its smart if they lower the price to the stable price for the fall-holiday season, but if they hold this price for a while, they'll quickly stop making money once the idiots buy it up.
esp since the existence of VR will only make nice gaming monitors cheaper probably.
>>52271146
It'll fail simply from accessibility. Its because of it being such a high price for a new barrier of technology that's going to kill it when anyone would simply use the same money for another phone or anything like that, and thats before getting into the price of having a pc that can use this.

If you own one of these, then you don't need a computer monitor so that's a saving of 250 right there. So on balance the cost of the rift is like 350 which is very reasonable.
