VR + Touch - Just wow!!

I'm having a ball with Oculus VR since I got the touch. I'll be honest and unless I was on my Sim, VR never really got a look in for day to day usage while playing games.

The touch opens up a whole new world. The Oculus "Medium" App is mind blowing... I can sculpt something in VR, then save it out as an OBJ and convert to an STL to 3D print it. Think about that... I can create something in VR... CREATE.... in VR.. and then 2 hours later, actually be holding it in my actual hands. It blows my mind!

I played "The Lab" - I can't believe this thing is free. It's by the creators of "Portal" and has the same excellent humour. I literally spent 4 hours on this just inspecting all the things you can "touch" and playing the mini games.

Arizona Sunshine is my "goto game" at the moment for touch.
The immersion is incredible.
I put on the headset at 9 pm last night and lifted it after what I though was about 2 hours and it was nearly 2 am!!! It's that good.

Blowing heads off Zombies with a Glock aside, I love how you can search cars and filing cabinets for stuff. They have programmed "inertia" into the touch response, so you can slowly open a car boot and then "slam" it shut if you like (which Zombies will hear) or quietly search cars and try and avoid making noise.

The same applies to doors, open slightly and peak around the crack, or fling it open and go in all guns blazing. It's an amazing VR title and I can't recommend it highly enough.

I'm taking my whole setup into work this work to "show it off" so hopefully, I'll have some video footage to share with people's reaction to Touch + VR + Sim.

Yes the rift with touch is amazing.

Arizone sunshine is my favourite VR game at the moment too. I haven't finished the single player yet, most of the time i play the single player horde mode, which is pretty intensive too.

I always thought that roomscale wasn't something for me, but the same day touch arrived i ordered a third sensor for maximum coverage. With the 3th camera i will try setting up a play area next to my rig. The 3th camera will be pointed towards where my head is for racing, while the other two cams are for playing touch games.

Be sure to check out doom3 BFG VR, this game also rocks

All sounds great, can't wait for xmas morning to come I only have about 2x2m area to play in once I have cleaned up a little.

I didn't think I would be right bothered about room scale but you are all slowly changing my mind, proof will be when I try it I guess

@SilentChill - I literally have a 1.5m square space to move around in, and it's plenty. So long as you can lean / tilt / duck / weave / reachout without hitting anything, you'll be sweet.

It's so small an area I setup Steam VR as "standing only" and I'm still having a blast with it.

HAHAHAHA - I love Arizona Sunshine.

I was stuck in a cabin with a Zombie glitching behind a sign outside the hut to my right. In any other game you would have to restart.. not in VR. I shot out the window and using my (real) table to hold so I didn't fall over, I was able to lean through the virtual window, stretch my hand under the sign so the shotgun rested on the virtual wood and blew the head off the Zombie.

The satisfaction from that can not be underestimated!!

Will ever zombies start using HMDs too?!?

The walking VR dead!
