benlogela Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 On Nov 30th, I recieved my HTC Vive. All I could do was sitting/standing scale, and occasionally tracking would be off, but I thought it was amazing as it was my first VR experience ever. Tonight, Dec 1, after a long C# class at my local college, I arrived home to a package I had been waiting all day for; the ball heads for the tripods I had recieved earlier in the day. I quickly screwed them onto my tripods and lifted them up high over our office area. I proceded to do a new setup for my room and booted up SteamVR. My goodness HTC, it was beautiful. I see why the HTC Vive is the best VR experience out there. Thank you all so much for everyone's hard work and dedication, and I cannot wait to see what you all bring to the future of VR! I just had to write to you all and thank you for such an amazing, beautiful experience! -Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benlogela Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 Thanks for the warm welcome , I'll try my best to be, haha. Rec Room really is. Paintballing would have to be my favorite game to play with it, but just talking to and playing around with other people in the virtual space is both amazing and hilarious. Google Earth has been pretty great as well. I was able to visit my younger brother's college in Vermont and walk around the campus. I'm not able to visit him just yet, so it was nice to see what his college would look like if I was there. Accounting had to be the best use of Room Scale VR and it was the first game I suggested my family and friends play to try it out. I love William Pugh and his studio, Crows Crows Crows. Haven't tried Big Screen yet, but I may now after your suggestion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockjaw Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Don't forget The Lab and Destinations, both free on Steam. Speaking of free, there are some great apps on Viveport too - The Night Cafe is VDA-nominated, as is Allumette and Pearl. All worth trying out for sure. Glad to hear you're enjoying VR, !

MainFragger Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 If you get a chance, check out "Waltz of the Wizards". Its a short little experience, but you can actually play with it for a while because there are so many items to play with in the environment. Its really one of the most fun experiences I've played with since I got the Vive. It totally brings out the kid in me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
