No thank you, I don't need to experience the disappointment again .

Even the Pro can't get locked 60fps on Fallout 4. And that's the bare minimum for VR.
Yeah, this is why I held off on buying the PSVR. Fallout 4 was the first VR game that looked like I'd buy hardware for it and I was absolutely sure no way it was coming to PSVR cause yeah, when FPS is important to not getting motion sick, can't really expect a device that can't even run the game at 60 FPS to be able to do VR with it.

vive first then psvr, mark my words
I know womp, this sucks, I was so hyped for this to get to PSVR. I need my open world in vr

PSVR version will probably take some finagling. The hardware will likely struggle and camera tracking may be an issue if it's like what we think it is.
So psyched about this, not that I care that much about Fallout 4, just that it's going to be one of the first real "killer apps" on the platform. Likely will get me to buy the Vive 2.0.

I can't see that with Bethesda's crappy engine.
Unless maybe they put everything to super low?
It should be, they'd have to really go out of their way to make it not work with OpenVR. Even if not out of the box, people wlil just remove whatever bullshit is in the way. Doesn't seem worth the effort or negative PR.

The hardware specs for running Fallout 4 at 1080p60 in stereoscopic would be insane. Doom, with contained levels and corridors, and significantly better tech under the hood, makes perfect sense.
I doubt that this won't work with Oculus. Even games that don't have the Oculus label on steam work on VR.
PS4, Pro or not, isn't going to be able to run this at the required framerate.

no PSVR - considering it has the largest install base is a funny one.
shame its FO4 though. I couldn't even finish it on PC.

the game does not look anything special and I'm sure they can drop some settings to make it run
I am not confident there is any level of setting that would give them a 60 FPS floor. It's just not feasible even on the Pro CPU.

I dont think you all understand how much power VR takes, and how little even a PS4 Pro has.
Considering how badly normal Bethesda games run on console, there is a zero percent chance that they could render them twice and get 90fps.
Damn, not even a discount for owning the base game?
Nope, unless it hasn't been applied yet.

Bethesda kind of hates Oculus.
Yeah, I suppose it is pretty far off yet, though it seems weird they would make it available for pre-sale if that wasn't ready to go.
ehhh...

Bummer. Having owned all the dlc with the game I was hoping for a discount considering I've played the content at least a half dozen times already.
Still, probably going to pick it up as there aren't enough triple AAA games on the Vive and I can imagine the experience will be amazing.
Yeah, I kinda thought this was gonna be a skyrim->Skyrim SE situation... Eh...

Fallout looked neat. The Doom VFR thing in the suggested videos looked a bit neater tho

Oh no, I totally do understand, I just was trying not to be a dick. Finagling means you're getting it at 720p resolution, 60fps interpolated to a higher frame-rate. And likely would still have drops.
The CPU is really just not capable. The GPU is essentially a 470/480 with a lower clock, so take that as you will.

I bet it's in there and rightfully so, the "teleport is meh" people (even Jeff Gerstman) is missing perspective in regard to many people that can't deal with artificial motion in VR.
If it's a good VR implementation then it has both, free locomotion and teleportation, at the same time. Like other games already have (The Solus Project for example)

Very excited to get this. I hope they're still planning to put multiple locomotion options in. I have a lot of unanswered questions.
Hopefully we'll get a bunch of hands-on impressions this week!

Was perfectly fine for me at 1080 60. Admittedly this was with a 1070
WHAT. Surely not. I assumed this was a free update? Man. Hype gone if true.
For me if I get this game it will be the cheapest cost seeing as I don't have a Windows PC nor a vr helmet of any type
But I want vr and a game I could be excited to play (and not just to play with vr) I just wish I could have gotten away with getting the psvr instead as I already have the PS4 and the helmet is cheaper.
Publishers put up store pages, not Valve based on information provided, so the price is unlikely to be a mistake. It's possible there's supposed to be a loyalty discount, though.

That's funny. I just finished Fallout 4 a few minutes ago.
